I guess when you've buried yourself beyond all reason ... donate it to charity! FYI. I first went to check it out at maybe 3:00. It was $250. Now at 4:30, its over $4k. Amazing that the seller could spend all of that money and do nothing more to the engine than change the oil.

Replying to: explorerx4 (Dec 04, 2008 3:45 pm) Looks good for the money. The price is fair, perhaps a tad under value but close enough given the interior issues. The cold air intake and "chip" are probably Mickey Mouse stuff ("Hi. I own a garage in Cleveland and I know a LOT more than the Porsche engineers"). But the dreaded water pump and timing belt have been done (one hopes there is a repair order to prove this), so barring the chip going crazy and the cold air intake sucking in a piston-full of water someday, what's not to like? |

Replying to: qbrozen (Dec 04, 2008 1:33 pm) link title She did alot of work to it, hopefully the $10k bill is not what did her in. The Porsche 944 seems like a good deal. The work it needs is is you could live with until you find the cash to fix like a/c and the sunroof. |

I just checked my friend's eBay listing, and see the car has been bid up to $2550. I know he's probably breathing a bit more easily now. He was getting a bit worried when it seemed the bidding was stalling out around $1000-1100. It'll be interesting to see how high it goes. |

Replying to: qbrozen (Dec 04, 2008 7:57 pm) But...the 944 is just plain darn good looking. It doesn't have a line wrong anywhere. No, it isn't a 911, but nothing is a 911.

I saw this and had to share - I figured this group would appreciate the sheer insanity. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks___Custom-1982-Maserati-Quattroporte-5- -4-V8-626hp_W0QQitemZ120344444938QQddnZCarsQ20Q26Q20TrucksQQddiZ2282QQcmdZViewIt- emQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item120344444938&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245&_trkparms=72%3- A727%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 OK, it's a completed project. But can you imagine the amount of time, money, and probably alcohol it must have taken? And now someone has the fastest '82 QP on the planet. Awesome. -Jason
