About the 1989 Porsche 944 S2

The 944 S2 represents Porsche's final evolution of their front-engine transaxle sports car, arriving in 1989 as the most potent naturally aspirated 944. Its 3.0-liter four-cylinder produces 208 horsepower, more than the original 944 Turbo, thanks to dual overhead cams, four valves per cylinder, and variable valve timing. This sophisticated powerplant delivered genuine 911-level performance with better weight distribution and more predictable handling characteristics. Production lasted just two years before the 968 takeover, making genuine S2s increasingly scarce. Today's collectors appreciate the S2 as the sweet spot in 944 evolution: more refined than early cars, more reliable than Turbos, and blessed with that distinctive DOHC soundtrack. Clean examples command premium prices, especially five-speeds with complete service records. The S2 bridges Porsche's air-cooled heritage with their water-cooled future.
