I had an '87 924S in the early '90s. It was perfect for me. People around here thought it was a Mazda RX7, so I pretty much flew under the radar. The tires had enough sidewall to allow the wheels to survive on our frost heaved roads.
It wasn't overly endowed with power but usually felt like it wanted to go faster. I had it to an indicated 135mph a couple of times and it didn't seem right that I couldn't drive those speeds all the time.
The chassis was a delight. It was so predictable. Some cars give little warning at the limit. The 924 felt like it would tap you on the shoulder a few seconds before anything happened and say "In 25 meters the rear wheels are going to step out 20 centimeters to the right. Be ready to catch it with a bit of opposite lock."
Such a forgiving car. It took care of you.
