I think this is my first time seeing one of these in person. At least, I can’t recall seeing that rear end on a Porsche... Badge on the back says 965 but google-fu tells me that that isn’t exactly a thing. Kind of. I don’t know. It’s complicated?

Enlighten me?

968. Successor to the 944. Short run from 91 to 95

968, I believe.  Early-mid 90s.

968.

* 965 is the greatest thing ever.

It’s a 968, 3 liter inline 4 with iirc 250 ho or so. Peak 944.

Most welcome, and no trouble,  but I’ll take a red 944 anytime.

968. It's a final evolution of the 924/944.

I think Pontiac had a slightly larger one in the ‘60s, though certainly not as powerful.

That’s bigger than the in line 5 in my old Volvos. Wonder how it drives...

I remember that well too, they made a point to tell the press about it.
