Carrot01 Posted 10November, 2017 Report Share Posted 10November, 2017 Here's another S2https://carsales.mobi/cars/details/Porsche-944-1989/SSE-AD-5067750sorry just saw your post - thats my old car, awesome example with original paint when i had it & im sure it hasnt changed Better than......i owned a 81 911 sc coupe & then went straight to the 944S2. the 911 was much more of a gocart which was fun, but the S2 was a better all round car (much quicker on the track due to its brakes & ballance - for me anyway)I'm glad I owned a AC 911 but I wouldnt have another.

I put the 4 adjustable koni struts on it including coilovers on the fronts.If you had it 14 years ago it's changed hands a couple of times since then so whatever you did may be irrelevant now.How many owners up to you?

Carrot01 Posted 11November, 2017 Report Share Posted 11November, 2017 (edited) depends what you want to know, but current owner bought it off the guy I sold it to.one or 2 owners before me - when i had it, it was immaculate/near showroom condition - so it would be quite easy to judge the life its had since I had it.

Carrot01 Posted 11November, 2017 Report Share Posted 11November, 2017 I have seen the car in my area over the last few years (the plates I put on it give it away), but no, I dont know the current owner at all. what were your important questions anyway?

The seller was really keen until our bloke mentioned wanting a PPI at Buchannan's, the seller said something similar to "Don't contact me again" and hung up. More than a few issues with this car I am guessing............Seven S2's for sale at one time, and we have seen three red S2's in about six months, unheard of........

Brow Posted 16November, 2017 Report Share Posted 16November, 2017 When i was first looking several years ago pretty sure there were about 38 944's for sale and at least a dozen were S2's.I have a 1982 June build and having done a few searches only found 2 others for sale out of a few hundred. All other things being equal does being a very early car make it worth a bit more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other things being equal does being a very early car make it worth a bit more? Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately not .....The more valuable 944's are the update ones which were released in late 1985 and on .... they are known as 85.5. I'm not totally sure on all of the changes between the 2 but the big one was the interior .... it is far more modern than the first series, more sought after and valuable ..... the S2 (1989 and on) is more sought after again .... there is plenty of information on the net regarding the different models. The 911 aircooled model has the same weird hierarchy ... my thoughts are that as time goes on, any version will be sought after due to dwindling numbers ....

I'm confident that will happen regardless of which model car it is, but the question was is an early car worth more because it's an early build car. What are your thoughts on that?
