My first car!

Feb 08, 2024,19:28 PM
 

A 968CS in Speed yellow was my first car and I really loved it!
Suspension and brakes where fantastic as my car had the M003 package. The engine was strong enough at the time but more power would not have been bad.
I remember many early morning runs up Swiss mountain passes. The car was great fun and dead cheap at the time. Incidentally, it was recommended to me by a Road and Track editor at the Nurburgring during the presentation of the Ferrari 550 Maranello...

I must confess that this one came to my mind more than once, with its big 4 cylinders ( 3.0 Liter ) engine and its " lightweight " treatment. Almost 30 years old, and not too many! Ok, it has the performances of a 911, without the charm of the " Boxer 6 "...  

Great color...

But this is a special variant for sure. The pictures make me miss the era of piping on seats. My range rover had that and it does add to the luxury. Also, proper speedine wheels in a porsche 👌

Yes, really special!

The wheels look too big

Interesting otherwise.

Aren' those of the 911?

Very cool!

Thanks for looking, Darren.

These are nice...

...but I'd prefer the larger engine of the 928. But of old-school Porsches, I'd take a 6-cylinder 914 : )

All good suggestions.

Very cool and fairly scarce.

Agreed, my friend.

Absolutely.
