Re: an intersting statement in the ClubH2O newsletter



I purchased my 86.5 on the 3rd of August of 86 after spending considerable
time comparing it with the Porsche 944....The roc was faster than the 944
and felt more nimble.  I   loved the looks of the 944 but could not justify
in my mind the 12k dollar difference in price.  In 1987 Porsche upgraded the
944 engine and the new version blew away anything VW could offer.
