Trio Of Terrific Porsche Turbos On Display

The eighties called and they want their Porsche turbo sports coups back!

Someone shared this little video expose on a Facebook Timeline - and it will bring a bit of joy for those who appreciate and still long to capture a strong sense of the heady eighties.

Nothing never really competed with the presence of the sculpted wheel well bulges found on the Porsche 944 turbo. Especially one with a hood scoop or a four hole vented nose panel.



From WIKI -

The Porsche 944 is a sports car manufactured by German automobile manufacturer Porsche from 1982 to 1991. A front-engine, rear-wheel drive mid-level model based on the 924 platform, the 944 was available in coupé or cabriolet body styles, with either naturally aspirated or turbocharged engines.

Intended to be produced into the 1990s, major revisions planned for a 944 "S3" model eventually morphed into the 968, which became its replacement. Over 163,000 cars were produced in total, making it the most successful sports car in Porsche's history until the introductions of the Boxster and 997 Carrera.
