Kickdown's Take

by Leonard Deppen

This Porsche 944 Targa Series II, featuring a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, 163 PS, and a five-speed manual transmission, comes with the rare combination of a Targa roof and an initial registration date of July 1985. Approximately 12,000 € was spent in 2025 on restoring the front end to the 944 S2 look and on a full repaint. The 2025 appraisal report awards it a grade of 1; the engine is original and runs flawlessly. With an “H” license plate and TÜV certification valid through 2027, this is a perfect entry point into the sought-after world of transaxle cars for convertible enthusiasts and Porsche fans.
