1985 Porsche 944
The Porsche 944, introduced in the early 1980s, was designed to offer balanced performance with its near-perfect 50:50 weight distribution, thanks to the transaxle layout. Positioned between the 924 and the 911, it became one of Porsche’s most successful models of the decade. This 1985 example, finished in striking red, shows just 42,513 kilometres on the odometer and comes as an Australian-delivered car with books, original keys, and partial service history.
Powered by a 2.5-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox, the 944 delivered smooth performance and sharp handling. Praised for its usability and reliability compared to its contemporaries, it became known as a Porsche you could comfortably drive every day while still enjoying genuine sports car dynamics.
In the 1980s, the 944 also played an important role in Porsche’s motorsport story, with racing variants competing in endurance events, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Its practical layout, with space for four seats, made it an appealing choice for enthusiasts who wanted both style and function. Today, the 944 is increasingly sought after as one of the most affordable ways into classic Porsche ownership, with values rising steadily in recent years.
