Porsche 944 S2 | 1987
Highlights:
-
- 3.0 liter 16-valve inline-four, 211 hp
- 5-speed manual transmission
- Black exterior with beige leather interior
- Classic transaxle Porsche with excellent balance and handling
The Porsche 944 S2 was introduced as the evolution of the 944 range, equipped with the largest four-cylinder production engine of its time: a 3.0 liter DOHC inline-four producing 211 hp. It combined Porsche’s signature transaxle balance with stronger performance and refined styling updates.
Finished in black, this 944 S2 presents a purposeful stance complemented by alloy wheels. The paintwork is not in great condition, shows some fading and lacks shine. Its wedge-shaped profile and iconic pop-up headlights continue to capture the spirit of late-1980s Porsche design.
Inside, the beige leather upholstery offers a classic contrast. The seats show creasing and patina but remain complete and usable. The dashboard, center console, and instrument cluster reflect Porsche’s driver-focused layout, with gauges and straightforward ergonomics. Overall, the interior provides an authentic 1980s–90s Porsche atmosphere with scope for detailing or light restoration.
Power comes from the 3.0 liter 16-valve engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine bay appears complete and tidy, with components showing the expected signs of age and use.
Overall, this Porsche 944 S2 represents one of the most capable transaxle models of its era. While not presented as a concours car, it remains a strong, enjoyable example that delivers the unmistakable Porsche driving experience, with room for future refinement by its next custodian.
