Porsche 944 Turbo S from 1988.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Porsche 944 Turbo S (1988) in preserved condition with original first paint
• Equipped with turbocharged engine and manual transmission
• Certified and registered with ASI
• Interior in preserved condition, electric seats and a removable/tiltable sunroof
• Car with major interventions performed at an official Porsche center and equipped with satellite anti-theft system
HISTORY/OVERVIEW:
The Porsche 944 Turbo S (also known as the SE series or M758 package), introduced in 1988, represents the high-performance evolution of the 944 series. Characterized by the boosted 2.5-liter engine delivering 250 HP, the M030 sporting suspension, upgraded brakes derived from the 928 S4, and the limited-slip differential, it is regarded as one of the most effective and balanced transaxle drivetrains produced by the Stuttgart marque. This 1988 example presents in preserved condition with its original first paint, ASI registration, and full-option equipment.
BODYWORK/PAINT:
The bodywork retains its factory-original first paint and is free from prior accidents. As it is a preserved paint finish, there are light, superficial signs of use from road grit, as noted by the seller (small scratches on the front near the turn signals and minor chips in the glossy protective layer on one mirror and the lower part of the bumper). The car rides on good-condition 16-inch alloy wheels with recently manufactured tires.
INTERIOR:
The cabin is in excellent condition with minimal signs of wear. The equipment includes power-adjustable seats, the removable/tiltable sunroof, and the satellite anti-theft system. All instruments and electrical controls operate normally; the seller notes only that the original period radio intermittently functions with some uncertainty.
MECHANICAL:
The mechanicals are in good working order with no immediate interventions required. Preventive replacement of engine mounts has been performed recently, and previously, components of the braking system were replaced. The major maintenance was carried out at an official Porsche center. The car delivers steady performance in all operating conditions.
DOCUMENTATION:
Vehicle equipped with ASI (Automotociclo Storico Italiano) certification and registration.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
