1983 Porsche 944
In 1981 at the Frankfurt Auto Show, the Porsche 944 was announced to the world. The Porsche 944 was introduced in 1983 as an entry level sports car until it was replaced by the Porsche 968 in 1991. It was based on the 924 and had the same interior instrumentation but had wider wheel arches. During its lifespan the 944 had mechanical and a few aesthetic upgrades, as well as name changes including the 944S, 944 Turbo, and the 944S2.
Powered by 2.5 liter, 4-cylinder engine built at Porsches Zuffenhausen factory, it was capable of producing 174 horsepower. The engine was placed in the front and powered the rear transaxle. In-line 4-cylidner engines were often plagued with vibrations so Porsche negotiated a deal with Mitsubishi for the use of their 2-balance shafts. A 5-speed manual gearbox was mated to the engine and an optional automatic was available.
The 944 was such an amazing package that for 1983 through 1985, Car and Driver rated it in their Ten Best List.
This particular 944 was built for the German market. Its differences include a different air splitter in the front and diffuser in the rear, no sunroof, no air conditioning, nor power steering. It was bought to the states by a serviceman stationed overseas and kept in pristine condition. There is a load of service receipts documenting this car's lifetime.
