So I came across this 944. Thought it was weird that it had no sunroof from the factory. Even weirder is it is a 1982 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) . I've never seen an 82? I thought they started production in 83 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) . Check out the interior. supposedly also from the factory. Car was imported 4 years ago from Germany. I only have a few pics & just wanted to see if what your consensus was (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
I love the color. Not sure if this is an extremely rare car? Or just a unique one? Attached image(s)

I was stationed stateside near a large military base in 1981-82. The used car lots were full of the nice Audi's, VWs, Porsches and Volvos.
In those days, guys would beg for a Germany assignment for the car options to ship back. Like Scotty said, not uncommon at all, especially then. Rare now, but common knowledge then... The lots were loaded around the large East Coast bases for sure - I shopped till I went blind (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
