After owning a 996 cabrio 4 I definitely want a 944. Too many potential failures on the M96 engine that scared me enough to sell it. Only had like 38k miles and I did an IMS solution on it. Was a pain to work on too. It was fun to drive no doubt.

1. How can you critque the pop up headlights on the 944.....everyone loves pop up headlights. 2. The sunroof is extremly easy to remove. I can remove it in minutes. 3. There is a switch to change which mirror youre adjusting. Not a fan of this video as a 944 owner based on these 3 things.

Gobble them up? Classic Porsches? Investment? That market has tanked, sorry to burst your bubble. Great car, looking at one now for something to drive - cars as "investments" is exactly why the car market turned into a joke. Enjoy them for what they are! You want an appreciating asset, get art. No porsche tax to keep your art collection running.

Hello! There's a switch on the centre console to switch between the driver side power mirror and the passenger side one 😂

I personally couldn’t care less what a car is going to be worth-buy a car to drive it. If you want an investment, play the stock market. FYI, vulgar language doesn’t make you sound cool or improve your review-please stop. Otherwise, nice video and beautiful car (from a former 996.1 and current 997.2 owner).

You are so wrong with your take on the headlights...they are great. How did you feel about the 90's 300ZX headlights? There were good enough to go on the late model Diablo.

Exactly right about those wheels...the phone dials were so ugly. Those wheels are very Crager ish or even Daisy's.

As soon as you sit down in the driver's seat of a 944 you immediately start to feellike you are in a well designed "sports car".

Don't spend 40 grand on a 944 turbo. Buy a Cayman or Boxster instead. But for under 20 grand you're going to get a beat to hell or first gen boxster but you can get a really clean 944
@drunvert Жыл бұрын
Another dumb comment. The sunroof removed gives you a Huge opening. And no, you don't manually adjust the pasture side mirror. You just use the switch to move it from driver side to passenger side and electronically adjust it

love the colour, but what makes me want it more is that it is the colour that Richard Hammond had in top gear specials, and that episode made me love Porsches.

993 c2s or c4s and turbo's with the wider back hips is arguably the best rear end of any car ever made, shame in my country, AUS, it costs more then an arm and a leg, well over $100K US MIN

There are actually power mirrors on both, you just have to flip the switch near the shifter

There is a switch in the middle console were you can choose which side mirror you want to adjust. No one needs to step out of the car for that. its all electronic :D

If they never made the 914 this car would of been better off. Needs a locking diff.
