Ya' know I owned one (albeit non-turbo '85 1/2) and it was very expensive to own..
It finally got hit in a grocery store parking lot by some insane guy in a mini-van.. He hit so hard, it was nearly totalled!
It was a relief to get rid of it!
I had a '87 Saab 900s before it, and didn't think a turbo'd car would be much faster...(little did I know!)
Anyhow, I would much rather own a Saab! The Porsche is a cool car, but not reliable in any sense and expensive to repair, even compared to Saab!
And IMHO, the Turbo 944's are probably a little less reliable due to (what I hear) are inherently weak headgaskets...
I blew mine and it was N/A..
