It's time Oppo. I'm selling my Porsche 944

She and I have had a good run. But I just don't feel worthy of her anymore. The Fiesta ST is taking all my time and attention. I knew this was going to happen. It's an amazing car, but it's showing its age and I think it's time for me to move on. Or rather, I think it's time she found someone that's able to give her the attention she deserves.

It's a 1985/1 Porsche 944, naturally aspirated. Roughly 150 hp. 5 speed manual. Cracked dash, ratty shifter boot, hatch doesn't open (think of it like a German Corvette C3), paint is chipping, AC needs a recharge, 16in fronts, 17in rears phone dials, 924 S2 gauges, odo doesn't work, tach/speedo/fuel DO....

It rotates like the best, corners like mad, and handles like a dream. I've kept handwritten service notes and mileage tracking. 160,000ish miles on it (probably), ~8,000 of which are mine. And I do have a carfax.

She may look like she just rolled off the showroom floor, and she may not be the most comfortable or practical, but for a weekend drive, it's perfect. I'm thinking $4800 would be reasonable, but I've got room to work.

If anyone here is interested in it, I'd love to see it go to someone I trust to give it a good home. And that would be Oppo. I'm considering listing it on Craigslist and getting it out there by word of mouth from my mechanic. But I thought of you lot first. If anyone's interested, here it is.

If anyone wishes to discuss this further, or if you have questions, please shoot me an email.
