    you don't need to kick the pedal to start it, its injected, not carburated, the pedal is only the throttle body opening for air

      @@drunvert Mine doesn't require any input when cold. I wonder if yours has an idle air control valve issue, and not initiating the cold high idle. Or maybe a vacuum leak. But if it runs good when warm ig its not a huge deal.

    I bought mine 6 years ago with 46.000km in the odometer. Put 40.000km on it so far and LOVE it every minute, every day. Drove many cars that had 3x the power but in everyday, real driving in the pursuit of the perfect line the 944 is unprecedented. Even the 911 cannot match it, except for sound in my opinion. Best purchase! Keep it forever!

    The vibration is probably the old clutch disk, it will cause a lot of vibration before it fails. There are good clutch kits for replacement. Suggest look at that.

    best regards from Korea. I bought my 78' 924 from Australia about 24 years ago and still I have her.
    I had also the happiness just like you when I bought the 924.
    I hoped to drove by my 924 especially from Leukerbad to Leuk downhill when I had stay the Leukerbad hotel at the time when I had been to lovely Switzerland for honeymoon 10 years ago.
    Watching your video reminds me of the joyful that times.
    I think that Porsche 924 / 944 / 968 is one of best Porsche ever made for fun to drive especially to unhitch a targa roof is best for open-air drive and popup headlight is so cool.
    Enjoy your 944.!! :)

      Bullgamez yes, mine do over 20mpg in mixed driving in US mpg. My best will do 11.0 l/ 100 km. This is in mixed driving, air on, so on the freeway only with no air conditioning expect more probably better than 10l per 100km. Turbos a bit lower.

      I have found in my ownership of now my 2nd 944 that the back seats are virtually, as you mentioned, useless for humans- great for dogs & backpacks. Unless all of your friends are are shorter than 5’ and thin builds, you will need the sunroof open to accommodate decent headroom- and I truly mean decent. This is totally fine permitting and weather, but something to consider. I truly believe that this is not an issue and there aren’t many times people even WANT to climb in the back, and if they do- make it quick, lol. These cars are worth every penny and as long as you can find a local shop you trust and pick up a decent example, you will have a blast for 200k+ miles no problem.
