Cool for me, only just. I never liked it because I always thought it wasn't a real Porsche. But hearing all the positive things about it from TT I kinda like it now though!

Oh the ones shouting Subzero at once, asskissers !

Honestly, can't give it a subzero, but hell. As many of us, never thought I would say a 944 is a cool car, and yet, it is, it really is, and not only because it's a bargani sportcar with a great badge, but because it always manages to put a smile on my face when I see it parked somewhere and I know I'm about to jump in.

You see, I had the same thought about it TT, but reading your reviews and now this comment makes me realise why I like it so much suddenly!

It's cool. But, yes, the 928 is better.

Actually the car has an undeservedly bad image because its not considered a real porsche from many porsche purists since the engine is not in the back; however, I agree 100% with dani that the car looks great, it handles brilliant, and it has engines with a lot of punch; from the S version to the turbo one (furthermore, its derivated 968 was a real great car as well); on the other hand, the 924 is really different although it had the turbo version or the GTS which performed in a similar way to the bother 944
