AGM is a great color. Love the way it changes in different lighting. It was tough not to order the C4S in the same color but we were able to look at an Arctic Gray Turbo S in person and like the blue undertones.

I don't have any good interior photos but it's on my list to do.

Beautiful car(s) -- welcome to Carpokes!!

Welcome to Carpokes from a fellow Tim!

Hi all!

Joined and posting to get access to the .stl for the belt tensioner (about to refresh the coolant system on my '87 944 and figured I might as well do all the belts while I'm in there)

Tom- congrats on the community you're creating here! Awesome to see and happy to have an opportunity to join.

If anyone's in the Bay Area- say hi! I drive the 9 and the 1 and Skyline/La Honda after and happy to do it with other 944's.

Images of the car attached, maybe it'll work?

Welcome! Thanks for joining up.

Answering your image posting question/comment, just in case you're unsure of how that works on Carpokes. It's a breeze!

Howdy Hollen. Welcome to Carpokes and thanks for the kind words. We are trying very hard to be a community-first forum, free from trolls, etc, Glad you found us via the belt tensioner! Got your PM too, and am thinking another Carpokes bay area get together might be in order. Let me work on that. The last time we had one, Carpokes was just starting out, but now I'm guessing we may a lot more bay areans... Maybe a meet up at Alice's one of these weekends?

The pictures didn't show by the way. See this post to see how it's done...

Edit: Tim beat me to it.

New here saw the ad in excellence. SoCal. First was a ‘71 T Targa ( needless to say wish I still had it) then came a black ‘82 SC Coupe. An ‘07 Carrera 6M I bought in Tennessee and drove it back. Now it’s a ‘20 992s (first PDK) and a ‘21 Taycan CT. Love ‘em both. Only other car brand that hooked me was Saab. Yeah, I know.

Welcome aboard Dan. I followed an early 70's silver Targa on the road today -- super tidy -- and day-dreamed about getting one. Looks great, but sounded and smelled even better. Some of the Saabs shared a ton of turbo technology with the 944 Turbo, just say'n.

Sounds like you'll fit right in here... Welcome!
