Anyway, the seller says it bought the car with “an unheard of” 1,960 miles (3,154 km) from the original owner, a medical school graduate at the time who drove the car sparingly over the three years of his residency. The 944 S2 was last registered in 1993 with 1,800 documented miles and kept in a heated garage ever since.
The car is said to be in incredibly original condition, with the factory cosmoline intact on the undercarriage. There’s almost no visible wear, with the Design 90 wheels looking as good as new, no stone chips or significant dings, intact rubber and trim, as well as clear glass.
The dark blue partial leather interior looks great too, with the dashboard and the rest of the cabin being blemish free. The car is offered with the original title and registration, 1993 registration, both sets of keys with the original dealer inventory key tag, dealer model and trim brochures, as well as completely original unused tools and drivers manual.
This 944 S2 is also a rather rare model, as only 449 units were delivered to North America for the 1990 model year. Less than 30 of those had a Baltic Blue exterior and dark blue interior.
The S2 shares aerodynamic components with the 944 Turbo, including a flush front bumper, underbody trays, rear diffuser, and rocker extensions. Power comes from a 3.0-liter four-cylinder engine with dual overhead cams and 16 valves producing 208 HP (211 PS) and 207 lb-ft (282 Nm) of torque when new.
Mated to a five-speed transaxle manual transmission, the engine enabled impressive performance for the era: 0-60 mph in 6 seconds and a top speed of 240 km/h (149 mph).
