1993 Porsche 968 Coupe review from North America
"Porsche's hidden jewel"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front, off-side headlamp doesn't retract when the lights are switched off. Surprisingly, when it's cooler, it retracted OK.
The rear wiper doesn't work.
I'm not sure about the sunroof, maybe I haven't learned how to use it because the car has no handbook.
General comments?
The best car I have ever driven, it handles like a dream and the seat matches my body perfectly - unlike so many other cars.
The power is deceptive, the car just goes & goes.
