[edit] 944 Turbo (951)
In 1985 Porsche introduced the 944 Turbo, a higher-performance variant, known internally as the 951 (952 for right-hand drive models). This had a turbocharged and intercooled version of the standard car's engine that produced 220 hp (217 in the US) at 6000 rpm. The turbo was the world's first car using a ceramic portliner to retain exhaust gas temperature. The Turbo also featured several other revisions, such as improved aerodynamics, strengthened gearbox, standard transmission oil cooler, wider wheels, and upgraded suspension. Major engine component revisions, more than thirty in all, were made to the 951 to compensate for increased internal loads and heat.作者: 古惑強 時間: 2009-8-6 10:40
Actually I quite like 944 as it is a classic of its own with very much the 80s feel, but seriously with asking price at HK$128K, the seller must be joking.
If I have several Porsches as well as a die hard Porsche fans, then adding the 944 to complete the collection would be great. Buying 944 as your single Porsche, oh come on, get real! You are better off to get a Boxster as an entry model instead.作者: letsrock 時間: 2009-8-6 13:33
Flip side of the coin is that "Old School European RWD Turbo", not much choice besides the Sierra Cosworth or ........................ F40?作者: Simon 時間: 2009-8-6 14:11
你又啱.
加上呢架係前置引擎後置波箱, 係第一代追求50:50重量平衡的跑車.
佢嘅地位亦好特別.作者: Simon 時間: 2009-8-6 14:17
944S2 use big-big-big 4 cylinder 3.0 Litre engine, probably the biggest mass production 4 cylinder petrol engine ever! Also it is the last pop up lens Porsche.作者: letsrock 時間: 2009-8-11 13:59
