Welcome Andrew and is the Carrera modified for the street or for the track --- or both, ha! Drop some pics when you have time as it is a super easy system to use here on Carpokes.

Hello from Seattle!

Long time Porsche owner...wow, 35 years! Have a 1988 944 turbo S and a 1995 993 C2. Both have the M030 suspension and the 993 an early 1994 build in Speed Yellow with a full black leather interior. They are both stock (ok, I might get flamed for keeping a 944 turbo stock...believe me, I've been tempted) and really well kept. I maintain them myself and have actually done a fair amount on the 944. Not as much as some of you so I'm looking forward to learning and keeping the journey alive. Here are a couple of photos and I'm looking forward to becoming part of this community.

Adding to that 35-year year P-car history will hopefully be made easier amongst the Carpokian fanatics whose collective knowledge continues to grow!

Thanks for posting the fab pics of your two beauties! Also, a belated welcome to Carpokes. :thumbup:

Two great cars, and both in the same garage!
As they are both stock, how would you generalize their differences or perhaps their personalities, if that is even possible?Basically, I'm just jealous. And ABSOLUTELY no reason to flame (not allowed here) for keeping the cars stock, the way they were designed to be, which is admirable...takes a lot of restraint.
Thanks for sharing the photos and joining CARPOKES.

Welcome Seattle and love the color of the 944 Turbo. No problems keeping it stock since in reality a stock one will always bring the highest value , but as long as you have had it I doubt that is a concern.

Welcome aboard Seattle993. Two beautiful cars! I'd say the 944 is already modified with those wheels, so there's no point in stopping now -- next up, a 3 liter 16v motor with stand-alone and a wide body kit. ;)
