I've always wanted a beater... Best $400 I've ever spent

I've been eyeing this car parked in a driveway near home for a few months now, and finally decided to show some interest. It's a 1985 Porsche 944 NA. He was asking $3250, and somehow I got him down to $400. It runs GREAT and only needed a new battery! Handles very well and is fairly powerful given the age (very similar to a stock FRS). Easily the best $400 I've ever spent.

Well that may be a low-balling record.

Check local papers to confirm that it wasn't used in a recent robbery or homicide.

But on the serious, that's an epic transaction.

Another great find! Is it 944 week or something at the forums?

It always help if you see an older car on a driveway to go up to the owner and ask if it's for sale. I always find that the best deals are met that way...

Are you seriously not going to tell us how you got from $3250 to $400?! My money is on you either giving the best hanjo in the state, or persuading him in true mafioso fashion. So which was it?












...Also, congrats on the new ride.

Great job getting the price down! You two almost make me want to buy another coolant and oil leaking german car! ;)

Post some pictures in this thread when you have a chance, I'd like to see them! Any plans for your 944 or are you keeping it stock?
