Sometimes I wonder if I bought the right one, then I take it out for a pointless drive. I then know I love this car.

owning a 924 is one of the most rewarding things about being into old cars cars, i have owned several old weird cars and i keep coming back to 924's. its one of the only affordable ways to own a old car that drives better than a new one ! maybe there not the fastest, but in my experience most cars always have really annoying things about them that once the novelty wears off you cant stand them anymore. the only thing that can get annoying about these cars is the electrics; but if you rewire the car in a more sensible manner of your own design theyre perfect! oh yeah and theyre real easy to turn into track monsters as well. also lets not forget about the fact that they are a porsche

Painless is a company that a lot of muscle car guys use to updated their wiring to more modern style fuse panels, if it works for them why not us? All you need to do is know what needs power and when it needs it.
