Posted by Eric Lynch The 944 of course does not have the power of the 928 but still is reasonable and will more than handle a 928 in the corners. The 944 has beat the 911 and 928s in head to head match ups more than once. In 1984 the 944 went against 928S new Corvett and Ferrari and the 944 won. If cost is an option then I would go 944. If not... then I might look for a 928S4.... but then you are talking 951 and 968 prices... so... ultimate decision is in your hands. Eric --Previous Message--

As you note the big difference is the maint costs. The 928 of course has the V-8 so many of the items will double up costs from a I4 in the 944.
