1991 Porsche 944 S2 review from North America

I've only had it for 3,000 miles so far, and everything has been perfect.

A stunningly beautiful car, I still love to just stand near it and simply gaze. My model is a black Cabriolet, and the lines are irresistibly sensuous. At any angle, she emotes beauty, passion and grace. I had previously been in love with 928S's, but after speaking with a mechanic about the costly adventure in up-keeping one, turned to the 944. I am absolutely satisfied in my choice. I even prefer the Cabriolet over the Boxster, I've discovered.

The handling in this vehicle is outrageous. I took her up into the Malibu mountains overlooking Los Angeles, and she simply blew my mind. It just seems impossible to go wrong in this beauty. I've driven quite a few performance cars in my life, and nothing comes close to the handling of an S2 (probably all 944s?). Even sliding is enjoyable, and not as scary as I imagined it to be in the beginning. There are no surprises in the handling; she behaves intuitively and seems to mold with the driver to become one unit flowing through time and space.

I really can't believe I'm actually happier now than when I bought it. I had been expecting my obsession to fade, but instead I grow to appreciate her more as time passes.
