Looks like the 944 made Yahoo's list, but I think that the following comment also applies to our beloved 924s:
"What you get for your five grand is a quick (although not really fast) car that may be one of the best handling sports cars ever built. With perfect 50/50 weight distribution from a front engine/rear transaxle design, it’s an autocrosser’s dream. Parts aren’t particularly cheap but there’s plenty of used stuff out there, and the fact that Porsche raided the Audi and VW parts bins keeps them in the not-nutty range. Bodies were well rust-proofed too. Key point? Change the timing belt and water pump if you have any doubts as to when this was last done, and if things do go kablooey you can at least get top dollar for things like seats and wheels, which will fit much pricier 911s."
