1988 Porsche 944 Porsche review from North America
"Low cost for a great car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air condition doesn't work.
Dents and scatches from driving behind a flat bed truck caring small rocks.
Heat cracks on the hood from old paint job.
Seats have started to wear badly.
Dash has started to wear and crack badly.
General comments?
As my first car the Porsche 944 has amazed me with its quickness and high-speed cornering. Near where I live there are signs that say CAUTION SLOW DOWN FOR TURN, but I never pay atention to them in my 944. It's shocking that it can out turn Corvettes and Mustangs for one tenth of the price.
