Jeff Sutton guides us by his 1984 Porsche 944, reflecting on Porsche’s new course of water-cooled and front-engine automobiles that have been meant to interchange the air-cooled boxer engines.

In typical Porsche trend, the 944 can be marginally improved with extra horsepower and even a Turbo mannequin earlier than evolving into the Porsche 968.
