Porsche 944 2.5L I4 FI SOHC 8V 1984
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to offer a super cool 1984 Porsche 944. Based on the 924 platform, the 944 was a front engine, rear drive sports car offered from 1982-1991. Up front you'll find a 2.5 Liter Inline 4 cylinder which mates up to a 5 speed manual transaxle gearbox located all the way at the rear of the vehicle. The result is a perfect 50/50 weight distribution between the front and rear. This makes it a predictable car to drive enthusiastically. There are even racing divisions specifically for 944s since they make such good race cars. This particular example is a road going 944 with all the interior luxuries like cold AC, leather seats, and a stereo. The exterior is bright red which is the factory finish. She sits on classic Porsche "Cookie Cutter" wheels which are quintessential Porsche. Unique to the 944 (and the 924 that proceeded) are the ultra cool flip up headlights. Flip up headlights and the molded rear "wale tail" spoiler really make for a memorably sporty appearance. The interior features leather bucket seats in the front and even seating for 2 in the back. The rear seats can be folded flat for a massive rear hatch area which makes these cars more practical that some might assume. With only 74,311 original miles on the clock, this little Porsche is just getting broken in. This car is perfect for the classic cars beginner, or to fit into a Porsche collection.

About Porsche 944
While the Porsche 944 shares some similarities with the Porsche 924, it is not accurate to say that the 944 is simply a 924 turned into a real sports car. The Porsche 944 was designed as a successor to the Porsche 924, but it featured significant changes and improvements that set it apart from its predecessor.One of the most significant changes was the introduction of a new engine. While the Porsche 924 was powered by an Audi-sourced engine, the Porsche 944 featured a Porsche-designed inline-four engine, which was based on the engine from the Porsche 924 Carrera GT. The engine was mounted in the front of the car, but was located further back in the chassis than in the 924, which helped to improve handling and balance.
The Porsche 944 also featured a revised suspension system, with a wider track and a more advanced rear suspension setup than the 924. These changes helped to improve the car's handling and make it more responsive and agile.
Additionally, the Porsche 944 featured a revised body design, with a more aerodynamic shape and a more aggressive look than the 924. The car was also available with a range of performance upgrades, including a turbocharged engine and a range of sport suspension and brake packages.
Overall, while the Porsche 944 may have shared some components with the Porsche 924, it was a significant improvement over its predecessor and is widely regarded as a genuine Porsche sports car in its own right.
