What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tiny oil leak.
General comments?
Wow! this is my first sport car I have never been into a porshce before and sure I havnt drove one before I'm coming from israel and in israel we don't have motorsport well we do have porshce and jaguars and bmw's, but its so expensive that you gotta be rich to buy one
(bloody tax) :)
i came to the uk and wow car there second hand are cheap!!! I got the money so I went to buy a porsche 944 lux with full leather as you seat inside you get the feeling you are something special not a japo sports car, but this is the real deal setting low
tiny steering wheel and this sport leather seats all this give you the feel of "come on baby lets get some speed"
its not very fast, but its fast for a first sport car,163bhp to the rear drive do the work changing gears is amazing very fast very smooth I really like the driving position especailly when you going fast in the country narrow lanes and tide corners
the cars best thing is the way it handle I mean it got 50\50 back and front so you can do amazing things with the car I would sell this car soon and get myself younger 944 s2.
