1989 Porsche 944 S2

Details

This original 1989 Porsche 944 S2 is powered by a 3.0L inline four-cylinder engine matted to a 5-speed manual transmission. This unmodified example was purchased by the seller s family and has remained with the family all of its 46,872 miles since new. Highly optioned, this 944 is painted in Guards Red with a black leather interior. The trim tab denotes limited slip differential, cruise control, anti-theft device, air conditioning, Bosch ABS, removable sunroof, and leather seat covers as options. The only modification is the replacement of the stock stereo with a Sony head unit. The car comes with a clean CarFax report and comprehensive service records and is located in Tennessee.

The included photos and third-party inspection represent a clean, well preserved vehicle. The exterior shows only minor scratches commensurate with the age and mileage. Similarly, the interior is found in clean, like-new condition with minimal wear. The A/C was found to be inoperable during inspection, and past seepage of the differential was noted. The vehicle has been routinely serviced over time-based intervals, and the timing belt and water pump have been replaced in the last 6 years/5,000 miles. The owner and a test drive confirm that all mechanical features operate as designed. Included with the sale are two sets of keys, including a valet key, a Porsche key storage pouch, original tool kit in storage pouch, leather Porsche front bra and mirror caps, sunroof storage case, warranty card, and a stack of service records.

This Porsche 944 S2 is being sold through a CLASSIC.COM Pro and is located in Knoxville, TN.

About the model

The Porsche 944 S2 Coupe, along with the S2 Cabriolet, was introduced in 1989 powered by a 208 hp naturally aspirated, dual-overhead-cam 16-valve 3.0 L version of the 944 S' engine. With a bore of 104 mm (4.1 in) and a stroke of 88 mm (3.5 in), it was the largest production 4-cylinder engine of its time. The 944 S2 also received a revised transmission and gearing to better suit the 3.0 L M44/41 powerplant. The 944 S2 had the same rounded nose and a rear valance found on the Turbo model. It was available until 1992.
