This 1984 Porsche 944 is noted to be a highly original example of the popular modern classic, which is finished in a classic colour scheme and boasts low mileage from new. It is powered by a naturally aspirated 2.5-litre inline-four, which develops around 112kW and sends it to the rear wheels via a rare three-speed automatic transaxle gearbox. This example is also a rare and now increasingly sought-after ‘non-sunroof’ model. The seller notes that the car was mechanically refreshed and recommissioned between 2020 and 2023, after a period in storage between 2014 and 2020. The five-digit odometer shows 66,622 kilometres, however this is not warranted. This 944 is finished in the attractive hue of Alpine White, complemented by a half black leatherette-trimmed interior with black Porsche ‘script’ fabric seat centres. It rides on 15-inch ‘Cookie Cutter’ alloy wheels with gloss black centres and polished rims, which are wrapped in Kuhmo Ecsta HS51 tyres, dated to 2020 and 2021. Equipment includes manually adjustable seats, electric windows, a centre armrest, VDO auxiliary gauges for oil pressure, charging amps and an analogue clock, electrically adjustable door mirrors, pop-up headlights with cleaning, and rear seatbelts. The seller notes that the starter motor has been replaced with an uprated Titan unit, and that a more modern Kenwood CD stereo with USB connectivity has been fitted. There is no accompanying paperwork, but the car will be supplied with parts receipts from the 2020 to 2023 mechanical work, as well as a Porsche 944 workshop manual, an indoor and outdoor cover, a battery trickle charger, and three keys. The seller also notes that the custom registration ‘94FOUR’ shown on the car is also included in the sale for a Queensland purchaser. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: there is slight discolouration to bonnet, slight roughness to the paint on the passenger door, a crack on the plastic framing the front passenger side indicator, and an unstable driver’s side mirror attachment. Inside, the interior is generally excellent, but the centre console trim around the automatic shifter occasionally pops up, and the glove box does not close completely squarely. The seller also notes that the passenger electric window does not work from the driver’s door switches, but does work from the passenger door switch, the driver’s electric window can be temperamental and occasionally needs a couple of tries to work, the fuse box has been displaced downwards into the passenger footwell, the radio does not function correctly, the driver’s electric mirror doesn't function well due to the instability of the mirror attachment, the radio antenna doesn't function correctly, and that the windscreen water pump has been replaced and works well, but the tubing appears to be blocked. The car’s last inspection of roadworthiness was conducted in May 2023, during which the seller reports that no warnings or advisory items were noted. This 944’s most recent latest service was carried out during May 2023 at an indicated 65,840 kilometres by Cedar Vale Mechanical. The seller notes that during their ownership the starter motor, battery, battery terminals, windscreen water pump motor, fuel gauge sender unit, steering wheel bushes and springs, and the headlights bulbs have all been replaced. Prior to this, the car is noted to have been mechanically refreshed between 2020 and 2023 after being off the road since 2014, which included replacement of all of the rubber seals and the tyres, and since then it is noted to have covered just 1,500 km. This Porsche 944 is an attractive Alpine White example of the handsome sports coupe, which is believed to be highly original. Presenting with some small issues that the next owner may wish to tackle in due course, it is noted to have benefitted from a mechanical refresh and recommissioning after a period in storage, and would now no doubt make a fun addition to any assembly of modern classics, and could be an ideal entry point to Porsche ownership.
