Vehicle Description
Classic Car Addict is proud to present this 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo
for sale in our Mesa, Arizona showroom. The Porsche 944 is a sports
car manufactured by German automobile manufacturer Porsche from
1982-1991. With over 163,000 cars produced, the 944 was the most
successful sports car in Porsche's history until the Boxster and
997 Carrera.
Changes occurred for the 1987 model year. The North American
variant of the 1987 944 Turbo became the first production car in
the world to be equipped with driver and passenger side air bags as
standard equipment. A low oil level light was added to the dash as
well as a 180 mph (290 km/h) speedometer as opposed to the 170 mph
(270 km/h) speedometer on the 1986 model year cars. Also included
was the deletion of the transmission oil cooler, and a change in
suspension control arms to reduce the car's scrub radius. The
engine remained the same M44/51 inline-4 as in the 1986 model.
The cabin features power-adjustable driver's front seats that are
upholstered in black leather (drive seat does have a rip) with a
matching center console and door panels. Additional features
include power windows, dual front airbags, an upgraded Kenwood head
unit, and cruise control. The air conditioning does need to be
charged. The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 180-mph
speedometer, tach, and gauges for turbo boost pressure, oil,
battery, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 145,109
miles.
The Porsche is finished in Diamond Silver Metallic and features a
sunroof, pop-up headlights, fog lights and a black rear spoiler.
The paint does have some cracking and fading present throughout.
The 16" wheels show some curb rash, and the front are mounted on
Michelin tires 225/55R16 and the rears are Daytona tires wearing
225/50R16's.
The turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-four was factory rated at 217
horsepower and 243 lb.-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear
wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle. The Carfax report
shows no accidents, and it was mostly a CA car throughout its
life.
