Hello Everyone,

Big Japanese car guy. My younger brother decided to go the Euro way with a nice 1988 944. Looking to help him out and learn a thing or two about this platform.

Cheers,
B

I’m another new member from Canada, living in the Muskoka region North of Toronto.
I’m a retired builder/developer with a long time passion for Porsches.
I have been a member of the Upper Canada Region of the PCA for over 25 years, and was a PCA instructor for many years. My attention these days is largely devoted to restoring/modding my second Porsche project, a ‘71 911T into an ST with modern conveniences.
Looking forward to sharing and participating in Carpokes.
Cheers,
Johan

I've had many fantastic Japanese cars over the years, especially back in their golden days of the 70's and 80's. The most memorable ones were a 1978 Toyota Corolla SR5, '82 Celica GT, '84 Supra Gt and, at top of the list, a 1972 Datsun 240Z. Would love to have any of them back!

Welcome to Carpokes - thanks for finding the site and joining up!

Welcome aboard. Plenty of great Japanese cars out there. One of my favorite cars ever was my '93 RX7 twin turbo. That car was ahead of its time, and holds up well even against more modern cars.

p.s., Get your brother to join up here!! We have gobs of 944 expertise on the site. :)

I read about Carpokes in the recent issue of Panorama. My name is Michael and I live outside of Austin, TX. Bought my first Porsche at the beginning of the year, a 2023 911 Carrera S Cab. Love this car just sad there aren’t enough free days to drive it!!
