Still nice exemple of 931-924 left out there

Not very often you see them line like this, really have lot's of respect for them since they are the cars that broke ground for what we actualy drive either a it's944N/A - 951- or a 968. .

Not so. I have 4 of them at my house (not including a 5th that is being built).

Being on the subject of 924 this is a very unusual one.

Ja, I think that's the original prototype. Project 453 or something like that.

It looks almost like it could be a mash up of 924 and 928...
Maybe a bit of Jag XKE thrown in...

How stock is shaggy?

My motor is stock....

Oh and how far would you like to race? Presumably a short distance so the turbo doesn't eat itself....

I'll stack any one of my 931s up against a 944 for reliability. It's all in the PM.

No offense but that probably what you'll need to fool around with them 931 boys' a friend of mine own a 931 & I got the surprise of my life when I try to follow him with my old faithful 944 witch wasn't no slouch the only chance you'll have is if the their turbo goes nuke.

Sidney, we are running a trackday at MAM in Iowa this August. I would be happy to show you Shaggy rapidly passing you if you would care to attend!

Buyer Beware. That is Mark Johnston, known and documented con artist. If you need a history lesson, just do a Google search on "Mark Johnston" or "Hausbrauen".
