ohioboxster,

My first Porsche was a 1987 924S which I had for about 2 years ( 2003 - 2005 ).

Basically the same as a 944 without the flared wheel wells...

A fun little car ( picked it up for about $3k ) but absolutely SUCKS in the snow !!!

The hatchback and removable sun roof is nice, but due to the front engine / rear wheel drive design, if there is ANY snow on the ground don't expect to go anywhere ( I found this out the hard way one night ).

Hope this helps...

Nick
