I picked up my '86 944 for only $1000. Put about $1000 in suspension into it and it's a fantastic track toy. If I ever blow the motor it's getting an LS dropped in.

I once had a 944 Turbo. It was the most expensive car I have ever had to try to keep the car running and on the road. Every replacement part cost a arm and a leg and every part on the car needed replacing. I pity anybody who owns one.

Wow really nice 924, looks almost a bit like my Clubsport 968..:) Pic: http://968cs.se/

ive seen quite a few of these around Melbourne, Australia, but never knew they could look this good

FINALLY!!



Great fitment on that one, OZ... Futuras?

There is a crazy 944 is sweden, with an audi 5cyl turbo pulling around 700hp if im not mistaken. Also its has gearbox from supra mk3. That car looks stunning aswell,

If someone chooses a 944 or any Porsche for that matter then please refrain from making a fatlace or drift style. It's really just not good.

I had an 86 951 that i drifted for awhile, Incredibly well built cars, just not very fun to work on.

Didn't think i would see my car on speedhunters:D



Glad to see people liking it:D

They are cool money pits.

Its a lovely car!

Great project material if you like constant maintenence! Definitely a very nice car though.

Nice 944, when I went to ski in Austria I saw a 928 GTS, this was only the second I've seen in my life, and there are only 61.000 made.

A porsche is a very different machine especially if you put it on track. Part of that different is the engine which ever model it comes with. When it is replaced,part of the porsche dies. Porsche is Porsche still no matter what model !

God, I love 944s. They are amazing cars and for their time they were built, they are quite solid cars. Having owned one, I was thoroughly impressed and has made me want to go Euro in the future.

yes, these cars are way cheap, 924, 944, and even the V8 928 are extremely cheap in my neck-of-the-woods.

Yeah it's still a Porsche, and they all look good, but every manf has their red headed step child, the 944. I'm not hatin', but when Porsche themself even claims regrets for making that car, eh...

I had one for 12 years as my only car and only when I stopped abusing it did it become reliable. You have to be a smooth driver. Every 15k it needed a belt inspection. Every 30k it needed new belts. Every 60k the water pump would go, and since the belts are all off, you'd might as well replace those along with any rollers that are aging. See where the $$$ is going? It takes 6.x quarts of oil (the 911 takes 12!) And for the N/A 944 the OEM clutch is literally rubbish (rubber). Thankfully, there is a huge aftermarket, and good prices for quality parts are out there. Any shortcomings these cars have are addressed by the fanatical community. You just have to shop. I drive an RX8 now, which I love--but it doesn't have that same confidence inspiring handling the 944 did. 100+ mph and it was solid.

If you want one of these cars just be sure to have a backup. Be aware that these cars aren't Hondas that you can beat up, ignore, abuse, and they'll keep coming back for more. They don't take kindly to poor maintenance. So long as you do that, you should have no problems aside from what's scheduled.

HOW HOT!!!!

Gotta find me one of those! I wonder if it's good for drifting? ....

Those Transaxle-Porsches are great! We own a 968 CS and 968 Cab and have never had problems with them. Driving them is a lot of fun!
