944s are fun but frustrating. As mentioned, when things break, repair often means pulling all sorts of stuff apart just to get to what failed. My analogy is that they're built like a 7-layer dip, and everything you want to fix is down in the beans.
DMEs fail randomly and frequently. Rods try to get their way to freedom.
Parts with a Porsche logo on them are costly, so you need to be creative at finding the equivalent part # for Audi, VW, Mercedes-Benz, etc.
And for all your effort, you'll get lap times not that different from your neighbors who dragged a Focus out of a field and put good tires on it.
That said, they're fun when they work. Nice balance, excellent brakes, and non-racers think it's special when you say you race a Porsche (and leave out all the details.)
