Heh, don't sell yourself short , that is one very attractive redhead ------- great photo also! One of the first 944s I got to drive ( er, thrash ) was at an autocross in Wichita , Kansas. I still think the lines on the 944 stand the test of time and are still as lovely now as they were back in the 80s!!

That’s a gorgeous car. ‘89? Very nice and well deserving on this page.

.................and nice to see a great looking 944 as the new " Banner " Porsche!

Thanks!

Technically an 88.5, after they dropped the "S" but shipped as a '88 with the K26/8, M030, sport seats, etc.

Update. Joe Toth spoiler. Euro rear bumper. New suspension next.

Absolutely the best choice for shocks in my estimation. I had them on my Boss 302S racer, my son runs them on his autocross Monster EVO 9, and where I used to work it was our go to shock system for Vipers. We often took out the race KWs on ACR-Xs and replaced them with a three way MCS set-up!

Pulled the car out of the garage for the first time in about year and gave her a good wash and polish.
