Description

When it comes to proper German sports cars Porsche is undoubtedly in the conversation, more specifically the 911. Its designed has proved timeless, having changed very little since its genesis in 1964, leaving its mark on the heart of petrol heads across the globe. However, this piece you are reading revolves around a Porsche that is much less talked about. The Porsche 944, the evolution of Porsche's front engine, water cooled, 4-cylinder production car, the 924. The 924 was a joint venture between Porsche and Volkswagen to provide a small two seater sports car with an engine up front and drive going to the rear. Volkswagen ended up pulling out of further development of the 924 but Porsche saw potential in the design and decided to pursue it. They purchased the rights to the design of the car and continued refining the car until it made its first appearance in 1975 at La Grande Motte, Camargue. The car went over well, people liked the look of the car but not its 2.0L Audi power plant. The Porsche enthusiast scolded the car for having sourced an engine from Audi, saying that it was not a genuine Porsche. It was also thought to be too small of a displacement for the car. Porsche took this into consideration as they continued developing the car into its next evolution, the 944. They ditched the 2.0L straight 4-cylinder, replacing it with a 2.5L 4-cylinder derived from the 5.0L V8 Porsche was building for the 928. The fuel injection system was more refined, the wheel arches were widened, as well as the suspension and brake systems improved. In combination with those items, the 944 was much better equipped and more comfortable to drive than its 924 predecessor. In 1985, the 944 underwent further refinement which resulted in a new dash, upgraded alternator, cast alloy control arms, and larger fuel tank. This brings us to the example on offer.
