This sports car had earned a reputation for speed and power and rightfully so. It was introduced back in 1982 to replace the 924 as a level entry car but both were sold side by side for several years. The 944 was really a land mark car respected for its ability to stand out from the 911 and paving the way for smaller 4 cylinder Porsche engines. Suddenly a 4 cylinder engine was recognized for its ability to perform. The 944 is not only a performance machine but its also a rugged car with a great suspension and under stressed engine. Over the years it grew in complexity form the earlier 16 valve engines to the reliability of the new engines which quickly earned a reputation for their indestructibility. The leg room might leave a little bit to be desired but overall the backseat is relatively practical and the large shallow load bay is adequate. It has manageable fuel consumption and looks great all the way around with a body style that has stood up against the changing times. The prices range considerable depending on the year, model, and options. You can find a 944 for as low as $5000 US and from there things just go up. What you need to be aware of is that you should have additional funds handy because there are probably a few things your vintage 944 might need and there are definitely a few problems you want to avoid. The 944's had an issue with the tension belt which needed to be adjusted with a special tool. Make sure you don't land up buying a 944 from someone who failed to have the tension belt correctly adjusted or you can land yourself with some hefty bills. Another fault to watch for is the engine mounts which tended to fail on the exhaust side a result of idle vibration. You also need to watch the water pump which could become an issue especially if the belts aren't properly balanced.
