The 944's time has finally come. Transaxle Porsches have always lived in the shadow of the marque's iconic 911 variants, but seeing as the latter has become unattainable for most enthusiasts, good-condition 928s and 944s are increasingly in demand.

The 944 S2 Cabriolet is particularly appealing. Introduced in 1989 it featured a punchy 155kW, 16-valve 3.0L engine. In terms of appearance, it boasted similar detailing to the flagship Turbo model, and in "real world" driving conditions was not much slower, either, further aided by fitment of the same brakes as its faster sibling. This is a beautifully balanced sports car that also has some genuine daily and grand touring abilities.

This example

The car has led a pampered life, with all plastics, rubbers and surrounds showing no signs of corrosion whilse the roof is spotless with a clear rear screen. The seats retain excellent comfort and support, whilst pleasingly all carpets and the gearlever surrounds are free from any unsightly marks or stains. As for the engine bay itself, presentation is similar to both the exterior and interior; very clean, very tidy and with no signs of abuse.

 

The original service book states this S2 was manufactured on 9 November 1990. A fully stamped service book further bolsters the provenance of this wonderful example.
