1978 Porsche 924 review from North America
"A good entry car for Porsche"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much has gone wrong with this car.
The heat didn't work when I got it.
It needed a new exhaust.
It needed new tires.
The starter died on it.
The AC didn't work on it when I got it.
It needed basic things (spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, battery, filters)
General comments?
I love this car.
It's a fun car, when running right.
One of the most frustrating cars when it is not.
