He's asking way too much for that car.

I'm not sure I want to know what 'anal flaws' are.
His asking price is about $9000 too high.

Yay!
Another front-engined-water-pumper-bashing thread. We need another BAW-bashing thread for balance.

The 924 had an Audi-derrived engine. The 944 had a completely different engine that was built in-house by Porsche. Go back to driving your glorified Beetle...

Actually, for the daily driver, I prefer to drive something that blends in. Wouldn't want to be in a head turner. A little story for you. 9-11-01, one of the richest men in Oregon, name Ron Tonkin, found himself in Washington D.C. for an auto dealer's convention. He, a mega-dealer, was then the President of the group. This guy owns dealerships covering nearly any make you can think of, including Ferrari. With the airlines shut down, he & his wife decided to drive from D.C. back to Oregon, bought a car for the trip. What did this guy who could buy any car he wanted select? Toyota Camry...A wise choice, methinks.
