Got a new 944 lastnight

Well job situation changed dramaticly so I spent about 45 days looking regionaly on CL for another P car and I finally found her last night. I'll post pics later. Im in a hotel in Springfeild, MO.

A few issues i had noticed. Seems to be a loose wire or short in headlight knob. Have to touch it just right for the dash lights to work.

Slight vibration in the shifter at 3k RPM.

And per the MO State Police.... I dont have any tail/marker lights.
When we bought the car i had left side only, figuring it was a fuse i stopped at walmart and bout new fuses. POP! right away. I figured i would just get her home.
Got pulled over a while later and found out i now have no marker lights. Replaced the fuse and POP! so stayed at a hotel till the sun comes up. Im hoping this is related to the knob. Feedback?

Overall the car is quite clean. New belt service. AC and heat work(1st for me).
Body is near flawless. Interior close to the same. Sunroof can be hear spinning but no movement. Cruise works. Has origional, working stereo and some massive Porsche decal on back window.

Seller said he bought from a guy who had 3 944's so i figure i'll post pics and hopefully a previouse owner will spot and shine more light on the sitch.

Anyway, a fun car so far and pleased with the performance. Glad to be back in a P car.
