Like them or not, you could probably get double what you are asking if it had them on it and you threw it on Ebay...

That's sick. I don't know a whole lot about the 924. How would that do as a year round daily driver?

They are pretty good...

Not crazy fast...but almost 50/50 weight distribution, good mileage, simple to work on and parts are not outrageous...and you can do a lot in the upgrade department.

I have driven one in the snow...and while not the best car in the snow (compared to Subaru) they ain't too bad

What is the suspension layout? What motor and how much power do they make? Curb weight?

77 = carbs, huh?

Hmm. Looks really well maintained.

Why doesn't the odometer work?

CIS fuel injection baby. Pretty much all the same fuel system parts as an early Scirocco or Rabbit.

I think weight is somewhere around 2400lbs.

Suspension is McPhearson in front, and a torsion bar in rear, just like all other Porsches up to 97'.

Motor in front, tranny in back.

The top is a steel shell that pops out, but is prone to leakage. I have a garage, and thats where it sits on wet days.

Power is lacking. The motor is a variant of the Audi 80 motor, tilted over. (I think the 80 stands for horsepower) Its certianlly no rocket, but handles awfully nice for my 40 mile a day commute, and gets good mialage to boot.

Odometer doesnt work because its a 30yr old german car that was quirky to begin with.

Ive always loved the look of that car but they are so damn slow. I used to spank them in mt first gen RX7 and it was stock.


So pretty though IMO
