hey guys, so yeah.. my brother wants to gift me his A4 because he got an rx-8...... ive done a bit of research and the insurance would cost me 40$/month +20$/month for the plates and idk, say 40$ of fuel.... so thats a 100$/month to have a car that is insured and running...... is it worth it?
Please define "soft slob". I had a 944 Turbo (250hp version). It was anything but a what i'd immagine a "soft slob" would be like. In fact, it was the best car i've ever driven... and i had the chance to drive cars like M3, F360 spider, RX7 FD, S2000, MX5, etc. None felt as good as the Porsche.
I once drove a 944 with poor maintenance history, i can immagine...
They are under rated indeed!
I was very lucky with the one i had... found it with 90'000km, black with black/beige interrior, owner took amazing care of it and it looked like new, for 15'000 swiss francs. I was 24 years old and felt like i had something better than a ferrari.
Today the same car in the same condition would be more like 30'000 swiss francs, probably more... too bad some 70 year old half drunk guy didn't pay attention and drove right in front of me on a country road (coming from a side-road)... tried to avoid the crash by steering into a field at the side of the road... where a landmark stone sliced up the whole underside of the car... at least i have some awesome memories.
