Wanted to say hello as I am new to the site. Just purchased 1994 Slate gray matelic 968 with 63k miles. My father had a new off the showroom 1990 944 Cab and I recall stealing a few drives here and there as a teenager. Some really good memories. Hitting 40 and eyes peeled for the right 944/968, I found mine and the smile hasn't left my face since. Glad I found your site and look forward to connecting with the 968 community. Cheers

Welcome KP,
I'm sure a few of our members have seen that car up close and personal (nothing much 968 escapes us). Best of luck on recapturing your youth, the 968 is a perfect platform <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.png" class="smilie" alt="" />
Enjoy the site,

i know that car - i looked at it - it has quite a few problems, not the least of which is a ripped firewall that presents a significant safety concern. you may be able to force the dealership to repair it.
i'm emailing you. please contact me asap
Welcome congrats. Listen to Flash.
Welcome! Love the color. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.png" class="smilie" alt="" />
Love the colour, hate the possible news from Flash. Since it's a recent purchase get right on the customer satisfaction, safety issues, if the exist. Dealers forget you just about the time the cheque clears <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/dry.png" class="smilie" alt="" />
Thanks everyone, After my ametuer inspection I figured it would need some work, let's just hope I don't need to take a second mortgage out to get it done <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.png" class="smilie" alt="" /> Why does a cracked/ripped firewall seem expensive? Any idea what that moslty will run?
ring me up - you have my number
no, i'm not a shop and don't want the work
Always good to have another L.A. area 968! Good luck - hope the firewall thing isn't too serious. I stressed about mine too until Flash and I tested it out and proved there was no damage.
yeah - his moves well over an inch. it's the worst i've seen yet. i'm sure it's fixable, but it's going to be some work.
The firewall brace won't "fix" it?
