Porsche introduced the 924S in 1986 as a clever way to keep its entry-level model alive. By fitting a detuned, 150 hp version of the 944's 2.5L Porsche-built engine into the narrower 924 body, it created the car many felt the 924 should have been from the start. For its final year in 1988, power was increased to 160 hp, matching the base 944 of the same year and creating a particularly desirable variant.
The 924S is appreciated for offering the balanced handling and pure styling of the original 924 but with the performance and character of a true Porsche engine. It's a legitimate transaxle Porsche that provides an engaging driving experience. Because it was only produced for three model years, it's rarer than its 924 and 944 siblings, which adds to its appeal for collectors looking for something a bit different.
Buying Tips
- Verify the timing belt and water pump have been replaced within the last 30,000 miles or 4 years; it's a critical service on this interference engine.
- Check for clutch slippage during the test drive. Replacement is a labor-intensive job that requires removing the rear-mounted transaxle.
- Inspect for common oil leaks from the front engine seals, cam tower, and oil cooler seals. Also check the power steering rack for leaks.
- Expect dashboard cracks, as they are very common due to sun exposure. A crack-free dash is a huge bonus and adds significant value.
- Test all electrical systems, paying close attention to the pop-up headlights, gauges, and power windows, as troubleshooting can be time-consuming.
