Jonesing over the 924 Turbo now.

Illustration for article titled Jonesing over the 924 Turbo now.

Lots of cars on my list of future ex-project cars. This is one big one. And to be honest, I think this is the one to buy now. Today. Because not many on craigslist are anything other than projects, meaning everyone knows exactly what they have. And that’s 1 of 11,616 in the US.

Of the total 924 production numbers (83,000 US cars) 14% are turbo. The S model was produced in larger numbers, not many but more and isn’t all that special. Drivers range from $6-9k and even those need some work. $3k will get you a restoration project. So, with 170hp on boost, 2450 pounds of weight, excellent balance, I think this is something really ready to become valuable. Especially since Magnus Walker is now playing with them, which means whatever he touches, everyone else wants as well.
