The 1989 Porsche 944 Turbo stood near the top of Porsche’s front-engine transaxle era, combining a 247-horsepower turbocharged engine with upgraded suspension and 928-derived brakes for highly-rated balance and performance. Regarded as one of the best-balanced front-engine sports cars of its era, its impressive boost-driven performance and everyday usability are a testament to Porsche engineering of the late 1980s.

The '89 944 Turbo built on the previous year's limited-run Turbo S, which featured a 30-hp boost over the standard '88 944 Turbo. Drivers looking for sharper handling could specify the M030 option, which added adjustable Koni shocks, upsized anti-sway bars, and stiffer springs.
Acquired by the current owner in 2019, this 944 Turbo is finished in white and was factory equipped with the M030 package. Now showing just over 138,000 miles, this example features an extensive modification list, including a distinctive, period-style "Pasha" interior with black-and-white fabric inserts.
Servicing said to have been performed is listed below with highlights including an engine overhaul, rebuilt injectors, clutch replacement, a brake service, and more. This 944 Turbo was reportedly repainted in 2025, and it now features a European-style rear bumper, refinished 16” Club Sport wheels, and Turbo decals.
This 1989 Porsche 944 Turbo is now offered in Indiana by the selling dealer with a factory tool roll, spare and jack, a binder of maintenance records, a CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Texas title.
