My dad always wanted an air cooled Porsche and he just picked this up. It's a 89 Porsche 964 Carrera 4, it has the 3.6 liter AWD and full coil over suspension with brembo brakes. This shit has crazy top end and takes corners like no ones business, now I know how shitty my cobra handles haha
Here's some pics of the Guards red go cart haha

Yea they have rear wheel drive and AWD also all of the Carrera 4's are AWD it was an option, yea G-Ride he got a smoking deal on this he got it in the bay for 15 out the door. Dude needed to sell it so my dad paid way less then normal. These things are still selling in the 20's

Yea my dads always had posters of Porsche's, my 1st toy cars were all porches. He's always been a Ford man and has had mustangs so I got into them as well, but now he actually has his dream car. So yea he's pretty stoked and yea he did get a good deal on this car
