Yea, caustad on here made some good bank on a non-turbo one if I remember too, in a similar way. That was a pretty fun ride. The turbo model is awesome, though. The tranny is in the back, so weight distro is 50/50 (all models, actually) but the available modlist for those is a mile long, and if I was going to be doing road racing, this would be a huge bang-for-your-buck ride, as seen on nsxfiles.com.
I looked at a cherry '87 turbo model about four years ago, and almost bought it for $7k. I kinda always regretted not buying that car, until I bought my dsm. =)
I do still have some pics of it though, and I still hang my head a little everytime I look at them:

^^ Wow that is a very nice and clean car!! Only 7k for that mint ride? Why didnt you take it? There are alot of junky 944s going for 5k now.
Back before I got my dsm I was actaully pretty set on getting a 944 instead. But I was stupid and decided to by my gsx from my brother... needing alot of work and ending up costing me alot of money. Man the regrets I tell you haha.

Yea, I always swore I'd buy a porsche by the time I was 30, but having a 300+whp sure makes it easier to wait...
Oh yea, I forgot--I didn't buy it because I moved to Edinburgh, Scotland:

Than I tell them “I park the laser”…everyone is like, what's a laser?...
Part of the fun of owning a Laser is the fact that nobody knows what it is. Granted, a lot of car nuts know what it is, but average Joe doesn't. If you want a car that everyone knows, buy a Mustang or Corvette.
The Lasers are good sleepers. ;)
later,

oh, Non-turbo? What's that? I don't understand...
I'd be looking at "chips" and "cams" and "chips for cams". So i guess i'd be a VWer...yikes
Don't forget the Vee's, the more vee's you have the more power your chips and cams make.
Jeez, you don't know anything about VW's

yeah, you have to have the "chip for cams". Yeah i did forget about the V's..."but if only had twice as many v's and some oil squirters, I coulda beat that vette".
