I tried to warn him about any British car. Especially one that old.

Something about 928 owners... They think that spending a week or more every month in the shop is normal....

Can't be as bad as my 944 Turbo was The 928 is better than the 944 Turbo.

When you run out of 4 letter words working on the RR let me know, I am a master at spinning a web of profanity.

I've owned another 944 turbo that was stock, and it was worse than the 928.

If I'm workin on a car, and NOT cussin', then I must be taken a break.

I typically break more than I fix too.

That was because they don't know how to align a 928, I had to keep taking it back. They were trying to use an alignment rack where you lift the car off the suspension and the 928 does not settle. Porsche says to drive it 25 miles before aligning after lifting off the suspension. Dumont's thought they could do it their own way. I ended up taking it to someone else. At least they didn't charge me for an alignment or storage while they were trying

Only $500 and still waiting for them to write me some content or even just tell me what they want it to say. While it was getting aligned they did an intake refresh. Replaced all the vacuum, water, oil fuel rubber lines with new, highly recommended for any 18 yo car.
