For the owner, it was not only the end result that was important, but above all the process itself. "Driving is fun," he told us, "but restoration is what I like best." As many restorers can attest, the real satisfaction lies in restoring a classic to its original glory. After having a lot of fun with the car last summer, he is now ready to tackle his next project. And so this just-completed 944 Turbo can look for a new owner. Will you be the one who will drive this legendary Porsche with pride from now on?
When we say this Porsche is in top condition, we mean it in the truest sense of the word. The Porsche was completed after a restoration in late 2023 that included an extensive turbo overhaul that invested more than €1300. However, this is just one of many carefully preserved maintenance invoices from the 1980s. In its long life, this 944 Turbo has only seen what it deserves: craftsmanship in Porsche centers and by Porsche specialists. No messing around, no half measures, just perfection. Every kilometer this car has driven has been driven under the best conditions. A nice addition to this 944 Turbo is that it was originally delivered in the Netherlands on 31.07.1986.
A history of unique quality and performance
A car with such a strong and documented service history is a rarity. Especially with a Porsche 944 turbo, a model that was already a highlight in its day. Most cars of this age have not received the same attention, but this Turbo is an exception. The result? A car that drives as if it just came off the showroom: fast, responsive, and full of the raw sportiness that Porsche made famous in the 1980s. This is no museum piece, but a living legend on wheels that conveys every part of its heritage when you get behind the wheel.
The birth of the Porsche 944 Turbo
Introduced in 1982 as the successor to the 924, the Porsche 944 immediately brought innovation to the sports car segment. It stood out for its perfect balance thanks to the transaxle architecture with the engine at the front and the gearbox at the rear. This provided an unparalleled handling and driving experience. Introduced in 1985, the Turbo variant added more power and challenged established names such as the Ferrari Mondial and TVR 400 SE. But the 944 was not just a street fighter; in racing, it proved itself with victories in the IMSA races, where it impressed with its reliability and speed.
