1984 Porsche 944 Lux review from North America

"Fun sporty car, best value ever, "sex on wheels""

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Seals are going bad.

Drivers seat is torn.

Carpet is totally faded.

Just lots of little stuff. Extrodranary shape for a 22 year old car, the engines are bulletproof.

General comments?

Can't say enough about this car. It is almost impossible to buy a car like this for as cheap as they are (usually 2-4k). They would be worth the price at $8000. One of the best values ever!

One of the best handling car ever made, and this is the NA if you want a faster car get the turbo. Handles like it is on rails, arguably the best handling car ever made and currently made. Braking is amazing also.

The car is pretty slow compared to now a days standards, 0-60 9.3sec. But remember this is a 20+ year old car.

These cars if not well maintained well can cost a lot. The trick is to keep it well maintained, and do the work YOURSELF! Dealers rip you off. The parts are also relatively cheap because much of it is used from VW. These engines are virtually indestructable, if well maintained they can last up to 300,000 miles.

The body styling is dead sexy, chicks totally dig it.

I love this car. handles like a dream. There is little you can buy for the price of this car that can deliver as much fun. If you want a fun, sophisticated, and cheap sports car, this is your car.

And finally preventative maintenance is the key. There is too many horror story's when you combine a rotted out t-belt with an interference engine.
