- hatchback 10,372 gasoline grey manual
This is a well-optioned first-year example. As someone who daily drives a 944 and is an active cars & coffee goer, i see a ton of 944s. I can say with absolute honesty that this is the cleanest, most original example i’ve ever come across. It’s bone stock, down to the most minute detail. Original paint presents extremely well, with only very, very minor imperfections. Imperfections include a small scuff at the passenger side lowest point of the front bumper, in addition to a couple little dots in the paint above the front passenger wheel (see photos). The rest of the car is free of any rock chipping or blemishes, even on the lower rockers, side mirrors, and around the fog lights. There are no signs of clear coat aging to be found anywhere. All rubber trim is crack-free, and all glass is clear and free of chips. The car is show-ready as it sits. The interior:black leather interior is “time capsule” quality. Even the driver’s seat is free of any creases. Driver’s seat is powered and heated, as optioned from the factory. Dash is like-new, as are the carpets, door panels, and rear seats. Powered sunroof functions as it should, as does the blaupunkt “reno” radio. Powered rear hatch unlock works, as do the front and rear hatch struts. Heat heats and r12 a/c blows cold. Leather-wrapped steering wheel is free of any fraying. Under the hood:the 944s differed from the 944 in that it featured a dual-overhead-cam 16-valve, 187hp version of the 2. 5l engine, featuring a self-adjusting timing belt tensioner, in addition to a redesigned camshaft drive, a magnesium intake tract, magnesium valve cover, larger capacity oil sump, and revised exhaust system. Wheel bearings were strengthened and the brakes were improved through the use of the brake circuit pressure regulator from the 951. The 944s also featured an improved bosch digital motronic 2 computer/dme for improved fuel performance for the higher 10. 9:1 compression ratio cylinder head. Like the 951, the 944s received progressive springs for improved handling, larger front and rear anti-roll bars, as well as a revised transmission and gearing. This particular car feels every bit as good as one would expect from such a clean, low mileage example. There are no leaks or concerning noises or tendencies whatsoever; wouldn’t hesitate to drive it anywhere. Everything feels nice and tight; this is definitely a very confidence-inspiring driver. Under the car:the underbody is bone dry. No hints of surface rust or signs of old fluid strewn around the underbody, nice and clean. Underbody bolts still have the factory-applied yellow paint on them. All part numbers are clearly visible. Again, extremely impressive.
