- Porsche 928 black alloy wheels
- Intriguing restoration project
The Appeal
Porsche’s finely balanced 944 makes perfect sense as a racer, aided by solid parts availability for the torquey 2.5L 4-cylinder engine and running gear. A lot of the hard work has already been done to turn this 1983 car into a punchy, lightweight track machine.
The car features a bespoke grey paint finish with decals, plus a stripped race-prepared interior with a Sparco steering wheel and a Cobra seat. The electrics also appear to have been track-modified, including a cut-off switch.
It’s built as a race car, and as such it’s registered as SORN. For the right enthusiast, this looks like an interesting—and potentially rewarding—route into transaxle-themed track days.
