1987 Porsche 944 S
1987 Porsche 944 S Description
a strong running 944 S, 1 of 3000, and who knows how many exist till this day. has a new radiator, thermo fan switch, hoses, and fuel lines. previous owner did water pump and as well went through the cylinder head around 4.5 years ago, so motor has fresh compression. car has tasteful modifications, a german tuned Leinstung exhuast, welsmeister 250LB springs in the front, and reindexed torsion bars in the back. the 944 S is sitting on Carrera II's with bridgestones with roughly about 50-60% life left. brakes work beautifully. suspension is tight. Arctic white paint is original, and still shines, the paint is actually starting to fade after 28 years on the right front bumper next to the hood. now for the things that will need to some TLC as usual for anything coming on its 30 year mark: 1. tensioner pads (recommended, doesn't make any sounds, just something that eventually needs attention. (front & bottom plastic pieces) 2. valve cover gasket 3. power steering needs TLC, works flawlessly, just has tiny leak out of o-ring. 4. a/c; all components are in tact, just either needs a recharge with the new r134 adapters, and diagnose from there, out of 4 years of owning her, i've never used a/c, love the way this motor sounds :) 5. front right sway bar bushing needs replacement, i'd do all the bushings but, you can just replace that one and you'd be good to drive it for another 20 years, thats the only one that needs replacement. 6. and that tiny little piece of rust that unfortunately beginning to emerge, but as you can see in the photo's, it's not bad AT ALL, just needs some attention from new owner. 7. header panel could simply be removed and replaced, so i wouldn't even count that as an issue, it's an individual piece that could be detached. other than that, this 87 944 S drives straight as an arrow, pulls hard as it came out of the dealership and feels phenomenal for its age. let's put it this way.. when i was shopping for one of these machines, i was never able to find a perfect one, not even one that was relatively running right, either had shitty brakes, terrible suspension or a bad motor for around 3.5-4! this is a timeless machine, Porsches' first twin cam 944 to hit the market that saved Porsche. do some research before getting into one of these, but if you're an investor or someone that understands, you'll know this is an absolute joke of steal, you can't worried about how much you have to put into this, because the longevity and the history of these vehicles are eternal, and if invested in, you have that and more. and don't take that from me, that's just common sense. if you got any questions at all, please don't hesitate to drop me a line. cheers! car will come with original preserved steering wheel not the PP and Dino Hub.
