You might find the exterior stunning on this 1987 Porsche 944, but wait until you check out the custom interior. So this is a great coordinated package of a well-balanced European sports coupe, and it's all offered at an affordable price...oh yeah, we're excited, too!It's hard to go wrong with a red Porsche. The wedge shape and chiseled bodylines of the 944 have aged well, and thanks to Porsche's attention to detail, it still looks great. Part of this timelessness also has to do with the recent professional respray of the factory-correct India Red. It really gives the coupe the kind of appearance worthy of the premium nameplate. You can tell this is a well maintained car by the way the black bumpers, trim, and rear panel are crisp and dark against the bright red. But as you start to get into this level of detail, you notice the bright Victor Equipment chrome wheels. This is the first hint at customization, and there's plenty more when you open the door.Porsche did not offer diamond pattern leather in a premium coordinating red and black appearance from the factory. Instead, this is a big investment in comfort and style that makes this 944 a unique and luxurious place to spend some time. With the Porsche crest stitched in the headrests and over the center transaxle hump, this is the kind of premium presentation that the company should have always made from day one. But that's not the only upgrade. You now have custom AM/FM/CD receiver that also has a flip-up screen for the backup camera. The upgraded stereo system provides loud and clear audio even if you have the power windows down and the sunroof out. This kind of open-air encouragement will make you happy that the air conditioning is running modern R134a, so you can stay cool no matter the time of year. Other great features include power driver's seat, power locks, and an anti-theft system. But even when you strip away all the luxuries, the appeal of this coupe remains, because after all, it's a Porsche. You get a grippy steering wheel that gives you an unobstructed view at the gauges. And the shifter position feel like second nature. This is built to be a driving machine.The 2.5-liter inline-four is all about providing balanced performance. Canted over at an angle for a lower center of gravity, it makes big torque at low speeds. The rear-mounted five-speed means that the car has almost ideal 50/50 weight distribution, and the manual transmission also means you get to be in control of this lightweight sports machine. Add in features like four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, grippy Toyo tires, and Porsche's legendary engineering prowess for the fully independent sport suspension, and you realize this is blast to drive anytime you can find an open road.A beautiful outside, custom inside, and Porsche engineering underneath this is one attractive package. Complete with owner's manual, air compressor, and toolkit, this is a great price on a cool 944...that's why we know you have to act quickly if you want to take it home. Call today!!!
