The private seller offers for sale this 1984 Porsche 944, powered by a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a manual transmission. Introduced in 1982 as the successor to the 924, the 944 took the transaxle layout of its predecessor and made it considerably more potent, adding a wider, more muscular body inspired by the 924 Carrera GT and a new Porsche-built four-cylinder engine.
That engine is a 2.5-litre unit developed from half of Porsche’s 928 V8 and fitted with a balancer-shaft system that makes it remarkably smooth for a four-cylinder. Combined with an almost perfect front-to-rear weight distribution thanks to the rear-mounted gearbox, the 944 became a benchmark for balance and handling and one of the most successful sports cars in Porsche’s history. Today it is increasingly appreciated by collectors as an accessible and usable classic.
According to the seller, this example has been in the same family for more than 35 years, was always a second car and was only used at weekends and on holiday, and has been kept in a garage. The odometer reading of 40440 km is, according to the seller, documented by the periodic inspection reports of recent years and by the service book. The car is finished in metallic brown over a leather interior and rides on gold BBS mesh wheels.
For those looking for a low-mileage, long-term family-owned 944 from the early production years, this is a rare opportunity.
