I've driven quite a few 944s, once on the road course at Lime Rock, and several of my friends have owned them. I found them great to drive. Far less prone to oversteer than the 911 and more responsive steering than a 928. And they have some beautiful forged aluminum suspension parts. When you look at the running gear, they just appear to be so nicely made. High tech fasteners, a well thought out chassis. All those little things that count. Those I know who have owned them have no complaints. Paul On Aug 8, 2006, at 7:05 PM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote:
