The Porsche 924 and 944 models were always somewhat overshadowed by the iconic 911, but in 1985 the Zuffenhausen-based manufacturer set about creating a convincing alternative to the 911. The Porsche 944 Turbo with 220 hp could do many things better than the original 911, but also cost the same. This vehicle report looks back at the history of the 944 Turbo and shows an early example in many pictures, supplemented by historical photographs and a sound sample.
