Porsche introduced the 944 in 1982. The factory-claimed 0-60 mph time of less than 9 seconds, and top speed of 130 mph was pessimistic, Autocar having verified a top speed of 137 mph, and a 0-60 time 8.3 seconds. The car had nearly even front to rear weight distribution (50.7% front/49.3% rear) thanks to the rear transaxle balancing out the engine.
In mid-1985, the 944 underwent its first significant changes. These included, a new dash and door panels, embedded radio aerial, upgraded alternator, increased oil sump capacity, new front and rear cast alloy control arms and semi-trailing arms, larger fuel tank, optional heated and powered seats. For 1988 the 944 Motronic DME was updated, and newly incorporated anti-lock braking and air bags. In early 1989 before the release of the 944S2, Porsche upgraded the 944 from the 2.5 to a 2.7 L engine, with a rated 162 hp, and a significant increase in torque. In addition to the increase in displacement, the new motor featured a siamesed-cylinder block design and a different cylinder head which incorporated larger valves. The car was phased out in 1979.
The Porsche 944 on sale here is described by the vendor as a good useable classic. The car has not been driven since the last MOT as the owner was taken ill. There is some history, old MOTs and some old invoices. A great starter classic at a very low reserve.
