Nice 944

I was flipping thru a 1989 Motor Trend and there is the 944S2, along with a
TII vs. convertible article
The TII out performed it except in the slalom which they said was because
the 944 had wider tires.

i love the 968, or what some call the new generation of the 944, which it is....they have the optional m030 suspension and handle really nicely. their only downfall was the $ and the lack of a turbo in that model, and the only one that got a turbo was a factory cup car and was upwards of $150K......WOW.....the 928 was a great car, and they still are, some, like the above comments, are not too fond of their looks, pop up lights and the rear, but the V-8 that is in there is truly astonishing......try riding in one that is internally modded and has a worked suspension....you will want one too. they are undeniably torquey and well built......one of the most reliable in my mind.....
the 944's, to ge tback to some above posts, is reliable, however, dan, my buddy, like i said, has gone through 3 engines and 2 turbos....and ~43K later, he still loves it and it is like a freight train......

the only 944 worth the money/trouble is the turbo model, those can really scoot.
400 dollar headgasket, i had one for 2 weeks and got a 88gtu, and i was much happier, but slower

the 924 and the 944 have the same engine too.
944 = 2.5L 8v twincam motor
944s=2.5L 16v twincam motor
944s2= 2.5L 16v 10.5 compession
944 turbo = look at my taillights
