You might want to check some of your facts on 944's and the like.
They were available as convertibles the last 2-3 years they were in production (944S2).
They were considered at the top of their segment and the best all around (nissan z, rx-7, supra, etc.) especially the turbo, granted they were significantly more expensive than all the others.
The balance shaft idea is not a minivan only thing anymore than spark plugs are a ford thing.
The 944 series (924-968) were some of the best selling cars porsche has ever produced. The company got plenty fat off of sales of those cars until the exchange rates went sour in the late 80's.
The 924 (apart from the already established Z) created the market segment when it came out in 76/77....the Rx-7 was still a year or two away and the supra never really came into it's own until the 86 model.
