Yes I'm aware of the prices for these models and you do have to pay a premium for one of them.
The 944 turbo or 944's in general are one of Porsche's best handling cars made before the Boxster or GT3. Lightweight and very nimble. The turbo gave the car the power needed to keep up or surpass the 911 even though they were detuned so it doesn't outperform the 911 turbo which it did. Porsche 944 TurboS vs. 911 Turbo
The turbo model is very easy to modify and they are great track cars and very fast. One of Porsche biggest little secret in my opinion. A nice example is hard to find these days but you can still get a nice one in the 10-15k range.
Check out the latest Panorama magazine. You'll see a 944 turbo S featured in the current issue. |
what is your thought on this: Looking for just another nice ride to pop in the garage and take to some cars and coffees.. not going to race it, etc. Is it worth looking at a 944 base or is turbo really the only way to go? I had a buddy years ago with one. 86 turbo red with black fuchs and he had modified with a chip and that car hauled ass! I fell in love with that car and always wanted one...but I have never been in a base model 944. Have no clue what pick up is like...I assume they are geared to be quick but at 150HP, how quick can they possibly be. Just curious as to thoughts on the Base 944. Is it much like the difference of a Box vs Box S?
