The Appeal
Until the arrival of the Boxster in 1996, the 944 was the most successful seller in Porsche's history, sitting between the more budget-friendly 924 and range-topping 928 in Porsche’s front-engined range. The ultimate version was the Turbo S, a model designation which only existed for one year before its high-performance enhancements became standard across all 944 Turbo models.
Here we have one such example which has recently been meticulously restored to a very high standard. A great deal of attention has been paid to the finer details, preserving as much of its originality as possible. The mechanicals have been rebuilt and upgraded, making this 944 amongst the most dynamically impressive you’re likely to find. This truly is an exemplary specimen, so don’t miss the opportunity to make it yours.
