1990 Porsche 944 S2 Time Capsule For Sale

Hat tip to RarestRX for finding this fine S2.

I used to have a thing for shoes when I was younger.  I was obsessed by them, I would cut Nike ads out of magazines and tape them to my Trapper Keeper.

Yeah I am old.

Thinking about this sort of explains my fondness for the Porsche 944 cars.  As I grew up my thing for shoes turned into a fixation for cars.  Is it any small wonder the 944 looks so much like a shoe.  Look at a picture of the Nike Legend and look at a 944.  Creepy huh?

I dunno, maybe that is just me.

Here is a pristine example of a 1990 Porsche 944S2 with a scant 15k miles.

1990 Porsche 944 S2:

From the seller –

“Hey Guys,

I wanted to offer this to my Rennlist brothers before it goes on Ebay.

1990 Porsche 944 S2

15,952 Original Miles

Guards Red, Black interior
5 Speed manual.

This car was kept in a climate controlled Warehouse and only driven on weekends. Bought from the original owner. Every peice of service history was saved, even the original Window Sticker.

I thought my 928S was in great condition. This 944 is simply incredible.

Truly a time capsule piece.”

Beautiful car, I have made my fondness for the S2 cars well known.  90% of the turbo performance with 50% less headaches.  I know that is fuzzy math but that is my perception.

This is as fine an example that you will ever find.  Is it $20k fine?  I am not sure, $20k is a great deal of money for any S2, even one as fine as this.  But, if you are looking for the absolute best then this is the car for you.

    20K buys you a lot of 968….just sayin’……Still, a sweet ride and probably irreplaceable at that low miles. Since there weren’t many S2s anyways, this sure is a rare find.

    You are paying for the ultra-low-miles and condition here. OK, that poses three questions:

    1. Do you preserve your “investment” and just stare at it most of the time, marveling at what an amazing time capsule it is?

    2. Do you drive and enjoy it, effectively eradicating the very thing you paid such a premium for?

    3. Can you manage to drive it very conservatively but not very much, trying to find that elusive balance between preservation and driving enjoyment?

    Why put yourself in such a stressful situation??? Find a decent driver-quality car with double or even triple the mileage – at one-third the price.

    Then again, there’s enough of us who grew up in the 80’s lusting after these that he’ll probably get something close to his price.
