> The 928 never showed that behaviour due to having a Weissach axle from the very beginning of production in 1977. I used to drive a 928. Perfect 50/50 weight distribution, beautiful throaty engine, and the most god-awful gearbox ever made. I had to rev match to shift up! in 2nd gear. They had a design flaw where the synchromesh just fundamentally would not work, and if you fixed it it would just break itself again. I had to learn heel-toe shifting just to be able to drive that car at all. I fucking loved it, and it really got me into cars. Also that car was great for whipping around a turn, just push on the throttle, slide around the back, then take off (I realize this is not the fastest way, but it is the most fun). I apologize for the tangent, it's just not often people talk about 928s anymore. |

A 20 year old 944 was my first sports car. Simultaneously the best and worst decision I had ever made.
