944s2 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Is this technically a 951? Turbo....?? But HOT car this is my fav body style... Nope not a Turbo.... and I really didn't want one..... they are actually a little less too, but faster by about a sec. I have all the goodies of the turbo though, stock, 4 piston brembos all the way around, suspension and body style. It has a super rare 3.0 liter 4cyl in it though. I'm number 268 of 449 imported coupes in 90 and 3320 worldwide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those wheels only on those S2's because we have a S2 that I work on at the shop that has those wheels and I can't remember if it is a 3.0 or not. I was wondering the same thing b/c of the 951 nose and the lips on the rear bumper. Really clean car though, I really enjoy driving those and would like to have one at some point. N/A power is a lot of fun especially in a Porsche, it's a very "real" driving experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the S2's are 3.0 liter cyl, thats what makes them "special" and yes it is easily one of the most fun Porsches to drive due to its predictability. I have had the rear end out so far it seems I look out my drivers window and the back end is right there next to me lol, and it always snaps back. I actually need new tires and was running to hard to keep up with someone on the back roads last week and took it off in a right sweeper.... just kept my cool as i was headed for the trees and didn't overcorrect or jam the brakes in the grass and had it back on the road just fine. The 911 is known as the "Doctor Killer" for a reason... they can't handle the power with the rear weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

944s2 Posted July 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Good thing I'm not a Dr. Welcome. LoL yeah but I would think even if you were a doctor, it wouldnt be a problem.... lol you know what I mean about them though. Too much power for the inexperienced.

Mr. Jones Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 LoL yeah but I would think even if you were a doctor, it wouldnt be a problem.... lol you know what I mean about them though. Too much power for the inexperienced. Surely the 911 is a hell of a powereful car, but what gets more people is holding onto the car at 9/10ths. It's break away is something to be reckoned with. Hell the older 911's dont' have half the power of the car's today, but watch an unexperienced person try and drive it near the limit and he's ending up in the guard rail or nearest tree.

Patrick Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 Porsche makes a badass car, that's for damn sure. Welcome. I think you've taken the first round of mortars (from a sewer grate, I may add) well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The motor difference over my 295hp car is astonishing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted July 15, 2008 Report Share Posted July 15, 2008 cool car. Dad had 2 944s. One stock 85 1/2, and a modded 944s. Both were great cars to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful M3 the 95 to what 98's I think were some of the coolest looking ones IMO. I have always wanted one, but my next car is going to have to be a convertable, I am thinking M-Roadster.

Oh I know, the 944 handles pretty damn close to a mid engine car I think. I had the back come around on a wet on ramp b/c of shitty tires caught me way off guard, but it came right back around no problem just like my car does. I was really impressed.
