  Wonderful cars, but.....

  ....an absolute nightmare to keep everything functioning
properly....perhaps why you can buy them cheaply...Porsche dealers often
refuse to work on them, if perchance an owner had the cash to keep taking
it to the dealer every time something didn't work properly.   Before I
gutted my 91 928GT and turned it into a dedicated racecar, it had over 80
relays in the 'power center' alone, which of course was located directly
below the heater/ac compressor and in the passengers foot well.

   Still, when working properly these cars are capable of Autobahn speeds
in comfort and control at a now remarkably low initial cost....   During
the 3-4 yrs I had mine in street form, it probably was 100% for only a few
days.....It almost always was amazingly fast and accurate on the highway or
racetrack, but you would close a door and the alarm would go off, or move
the heated seat and the traction control light would illuminate, really
weird stuff...and often interconnected in insidious ways so you simply
couldn't "unplug" the offending system without disabling some other
essential function that should have been unrelated.....  The workshop
manual?  14 full volumes!   3 full books on the electronics alone....a
nightmare...  Called the "German Corvette" by the 911 gang, who hated them
and treated them like the black sheep of the Porsche family....
