New Member from Central NJ, first 968!
#1

Hello Esteemed Members,



My name is John and my father and I just purchased a brand spanking new 1995 Coupe 6 speed with 129k. We got the car for 12.3k, if anyone is interested. We live in Union County in Central New Jersey. The car has a pretty good service history, and has some engine mods that I'll post in another thread.



Its a metallic blue with a cream interior. Its our third water pumper, I got my first 86 944NA at 16 in 96, then my dad got an 87 951 in 2001. This is by far our nicest one yet!



I can't wait to learn about this car and how to keep it working great.

Welcome,



I live in Bucks County, PA...maybe we can find a middle point some time and compare notes. There are a bunch of owners in the general area.



Enjoy the ride!

Welcome to the board. I'm in Central Jersey as well. Not too far from McGuire AFB.



It's a great car, and this board is an excellent resource for technical issues and banter...

John,



Welcome! I live in Somerset county not far from you. Bought my 968 earlier this year; after a 944S2 and 944S. I'm active in NNJR including Drivers Education, some Autocross, etc. Be glad to compare notes.

Thanks for all the nice feedback. I wasn't sure I could post, but looks like I now have official clearance. The car we got looks like its a 3rd owner or so, has a pretty extensive service history, with many mods done. When I get home I'll post up whats exactly been done to the car, but off the top of my head. Ceramic coated exhaust, enlarged throttle body, aggressive cam, 18" rims, roll bar, suspension, the list goes on. We are a tad nervous owning it since with all the work, it might be hard to diagnose any issues, but for now everything is running like a top!



I'm not sure of the forum etiquette so I'll start a new thread about that stuff, until then, happy holidays.
