I had a buddy years ago with one. 86 turbo red with black fuchs and he had modified with a chip and that car hauled ass! I fell in love with that car and always wanted one...but I have never been in a base model 944. Have no clue what pick up is like...I assume they are geared to be quick but at 150HP, how quick can they possibly be. Just curious as to thoughts on the Base 944. Is it much like the difference of a Box vs Box S?
Todd - if you are going to look at a 944, look for a 944S or a 944S2. I had an 87 944S years ago and currently have a 1990 944 S2 Cabriolet in my fleet. You get a lot of car w/ the S or S2 package.

If you look at a base 944, make sure you get a '85 1/2 or newer w/ the updated interior and dash.

just my 2 cents worth...

I'll post my 928 thoughts here eventually...
