About the 1987 Porsche 944 S

The 944 S represents Porsche's front-engine formula at its peak, delivering the performance purists demanded from the base 944. Introduced in 1987, the S packed a naturally-aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder producing 188 horsepower, a significant bump over the standard car's 163. More importantly, it revved to 6,800 rpm with the enthusiasm of a proper sports car, backed by Porsche's excellent five-speed transaxle for perfect 50/50 weight distribution. The S featured larger brakes, stiffer suspension, and distinctive phone-dial wheels that became its calling card. While overshadowed by the Turbo's drama, the S offers the sweet spot of 944 ownership: reliable performance without turbo complexity. Clean examples are increasingly sought after as collectors recognize the 944's role in Porsche's evolution, with the S representing the best balance of usability and engagement in the lineup.
