1988 Porsche 944 Non-Turbo review from North America
"A true classic; thank you Dr. Porsche"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have replaced the air conditioner.
I have replaced the clutch.
I have upgraded the wheels from stock.
I have upgraded the front and rear end body panels.
I have replaced an after market radio with an original radio - great sound, better appearance.
General comments?
This automobile is truly unbelievable in handling, agility, speed, and all around performance.
The ergonomics of the original interior design match or exceed that of todays most advanced designs.
I highly recommend the 944 to any serious auto buff that wants a true "head turning - attention grabing" ride.
Love this car and it will, in turn, love you back.
