Vehicle Description
There is a reason why this 1988 Porsche 944 Turbo look so pristine
in white. It is one of those survivor-grade untouched sports
machines that offers the full package of a vintage appeal mixed
with modern convenience and a great price.
The 944 Turbo continues in Porsche's tradition of building serious
driver's cars. There's no evidence that it was ever raced or
abused, and unlike many of its siblings, it hasn't been chopped and
gutted to make a track day special. Instead this highly original
example has its correct Alpine White paint, and we even believe it
to be the original application. The level of gloss and shine you
see today is a testament to both the quality work of Porsche and
how well this coupe has been respected from day one. It looks
fantastic today, especially with the Turbo's updated styling
w/integrated bumper. It even carries the iconic "phone dial"
16-inch alloy wheels, and their condition tells you this is one
cherished coupe.
The black trim on the outside is a nice preview of the interior.
The black leather seats look like they were borrowed from the 911,
and they are just as deep and dark as the carpeting, door panels,
and dash. That's because low mileage also means little time for
fade and wear. The masters at Porsche make for an ideal driving
environment where the steering wheel is grippy, the gauges are
crisp, and the stick shift is in the perfect position to rest your
hand. But more than an supreme driving machine, it's loaded with
all the right features. This includes power windows, power locks,
cruise control, driver's airbag, and the original Blaupunkt AM/FM
cassette head unit. And of course, this 944 comes with its
signature feature, the large removable sunroof that truly opens the
coupe up to the world. Plus, with R134a air conditioning, you do
this and stay cool all summer long.
This 944's numbers-matching turbocharged and fuel-injected motor
puts out a robust 217 horsepower from just 2.5 liters. And the
control of the five-speed manual transmission and lightweight
nature makes this coupe a little pocket-rocket. Plus, Porsche is
always thinking about the driving experience with features like the
engine canted over at an angle for a lower center of gravity, and
the rear-mounted five-speed transmission that gives the car a
nearly 50/50 weight distribution. Add in features like four-wheel
disc brakes, power steering, and Porsche's legendary engineering
prowess for the fully independent sport suspension. Now you realize
this is blast to drive anytime. But there is a practical side to
this purchase, too. Decades of expert maintenance means that it's
turnkey ready, and the impressively clean undercarriage is more
proof that the car has led an easy life as a fair-weather toy.
You get the owner's manual and maintenance records - including $10K
in receipts invested over the last three years. This is a complete
and classic Porsche that's ready now and well within reach. Call
