Mgm was very professional and a strong advocate for me as a seller. He was very responsive to me and made the transaction a very smooth process. I would highly recommend Mgm Classics
Tell me a better car for less than $4,000
Few people can understand that my car has 250,000 miles and is 25 years old. Once you refresh the fluids, belts, bushings, bearings, rubber and clutch you will have one of history's top 5 handling cars... capable of running another 250k. Check the oil, brake and power steering fluid on a weekly basis and be sure that the fuel lines in the engine bay have had the Federal Recall done. Pull 3rd gear at 4,000 rpm's into a right-hand sweeper and watch your rear view mirror cars shrink.. IMHO, only a Corvette, Lotus Exige, Boxster/Cayman/GT3, most any recent Ferrari/Lambo, or an M3/M5 would handle as well as the antique 944. And none of those cars can be found running for $4,000 or less. Porsche - There is No Substitute.

The 944 is a joy to drive the NA versions are slow car
The 944 is a joy to drive the NA versions are slow car fast and handle even worn out very well. The motor is present not spectacular at low rpm it's vw 2.slow like at the top end it's all good induction noise like many non 8 cylinder German engines. Braking is decent but not modern, Interior on the early cars is cheap the later ones less cheap, seats are comfy and the hatch is very usable, exterior looks good the pop up headlights add to the screaming 1980s vibe and in the right color looks great. Starting with the cons it's not fast my but dyno tells me mine is making 110ish hp at 260,000 you want fast get a C4 or C5 Vette when the car does need work it's not cheap took $4,500 doing it all myself to bring mine back from the brink of death not great but decent for a Porsche. Interior and wear items can often be worn with age and 6+ owners (mine had 16 previous owners...) plus a 30 year old entry level sports car often being not maintained and put away wet by many previous owners. Overall can recommend one of these great handling fun to drive practical Miata's if you don't want to potentially spend alot on maintenance there are newer and cheap platforms but if your willing to put in the time it's a fantastic car

Hats off to Drake and the service team at PP in Boise.
Hats off to Drake and the service team at PP in Boise. Had extra time on a drive from OR to NV - called PP on the way in to see if they could squeeze in a quick wash to clean the thick wall of bugs caked on the front of my car. Drake worked with the team to create space - we were in and out in less than an hour - during which we grabbed a fabulous burger at the Golden Wheel Drive In next door. Car looked fabulous and we then continued on our drive to NV. Thanks PP!
The Best
I've enjoyed my '86 951 for 25 years. Just turned 40K miles. I'm a member of PCA and I we get compliments at every event. I've handed my keys to 911 guys at Lime Rock and they come back from a few laps and say "that's it, I've got to have one." They are plenty quick, predicable, and the turbo can be chipped to a modest 300 hp rocket ship. Tons of un to toss around and they last forever.

It's an excellent drivers car, I have a 944na, so it's not fast, but it's still an amazing Porsche experience behind the wheel, it handles very well, and for a sports car it's comfortable

Responded quickly with info, pictures and a video of the car. Very professional. I would recommend them.
better than anything
I've owned a dozen sport cars including 911s, the 944 beats them all. It makes a crummy driver like me look good. Forget power to weight ratio, torque is what you want. The 944 delivers everything. Mine increased in value $600- last year. Easy to work on and they don't rust. Step up to Porsche quality, you won't regret it. BTW I am a PCA CVR member and have enjoyed my 944T for 20 years.

In '87 traded up from my 924, a lightly used '85. Loved that car, Guards Red & 5 speed manual. Handled incredibly well, and had it up to 130 (speedometer) on the NJ Turnpike once. Wasn't the fastest but nimble made it quick and I thought really good brakes. Saw many Corvettes disappear in the rear view mirror through the twisties in rural Virginia. It did develop a drive shaft problem & expensive repair. But I did most of the maintenance myself - changed timing belt, brake pads, oil, plugs, etc.

Just bought my dream car recently from Pete. He is such an excellent guy to deal with. Honest!!! Business minded !!!!! He doesn’t just promise. He deliverers ! Action speaks louder than words. Thank you very much for your help. Makes our buying experience a lot easier than I expected.
Turned heads then, turns heads now!
Took factory delivery in October 1985 of a white '86 951 (944 Turbo). Still have it...wonderful car to drive, performance, handling, looks. My plaything on the weekends and only $30K miles after all these years. Versatile with the hatch for a run to the store or an overnighter or for the golf clubs. Lopes along at 85mph in 5th gear, drop to 3rd and punch it, the turbo kicks in and your head snaps back. 220hp stock, can be chipped to 300+hp, relatively light car with unbelievable handling and you have a real winner. You are at $100K for anything close today. And...it's a PORSCHE!!

Porasche 944's are rare and are great sports cars to own and drive. They drive like a dream, especially with the sun roof open in the winding roads of the coountry.

Most fun car I've ever owned!
The Naturally Aspirated isn't the fasted of the 944, but it is still quick, and turns on a dume. Way before it's time, and under appreciated it. very few complaints. I would say, as a mid-late 80's car, the electronics were what had the most issues. Since it was fuel injected, the gas mileage was always great. The car today 2018 still almost has zero rust, which is almost unheard of.

Great To Work With
These guys were great to work with. Bought the car sight unseen but Ryan made it as easy as possible with frequent, clear communication, prompt responses and helped arrange quality shipping. Car was exactly as described and we’re very pleased with the entire experience.
Perfect "drivers" car
The Porsche 944 is one of the greatest "drivers" cars of all time, born from Porsche racing and bred to be affordable it's excellent bang for your buck. With the front engine and rear transaxle design you get a near 50/50 weight distribution and the feeling that the car pivots around the driver in the tightest curves and handles near better than any modern car.

Best sales experience ever!
I contacted this dealership about a 2012 Range Rover Evoque they had on their lot and from there, taking the car home was a breeze. I spoke with Andy and he made everything super easy, especially since I love north of detroit, which is about 3 hours north of this dealership. The car itself was flawless and Andy was very helpful in making me a great deal for my trade. Never once did I feel pressured or like I was being lied to. Their level of professionalism is top-notch and it was a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend them. They also went above and beyond in making sure the car i purchased was in perfect shape and was well serviced.
Nothing Even Comes Close
From the striking looks to the silky smooth inline 4 the 944 is one of the best cars in the world. it also happens to be an incredible bargain at the same time. Of course with any Porsche the maintenance is going to be expensive, however everything except the timing belt can be done at home in a matter of minutes. the owner's manual explains how to do things from oil changes to the brakes. And oh yeah, did i mention how it drives? The steering is sharp and gives tonnes of feedback. They don't call the 944 the best handling car in the world for nothing. The suspension soaks up every turn while the steering tells you to go faster. Its great! This is not however a dragster. it does the run in 8.3 witch is the same as an old Toyota Avalon. the sunroof is a great feature because you can remove the large panel over your head and have a nice open air car but with the rigidity and safety of a coupe. All over the web there are buyers guides but my advice is get and inspection done at a good Porsche mechanic before you buy it. If you pick a good one you will soon see why Porsche's motto in the eighties was "nothing even comes close" Happy motoring!

Bang for your buck
The sleek styling of the 944 gets me every time I sit behind the wheel. Though not the famous 911, a 944 offers a Porsche experience for little money. I highly recommend buying this car because it is a real sports car and a real Porsche at that!

Beautiful Performing Car
This car has always been a dream of mine to own. I've always loved both the interior and exterior of this type of Porsche. The handling is amazing and the fuel economy is surprisingly impressive. Apparently, these vehicles have perfect 50/50 weight ratio from front to back making the performance of the car so incredible. Unfortunately, its an older vehicle that some mechanics want nothing to do with and can have some issues here and there like any old car would. However, if you find a trustworthy and reasonable mechanic like I did, then you'll love owning this car.

affordable high performance
If you want a fast car - start with a fast car! This is a 2700 lb 300hp near 50/50 balanced high performance sports car that even today 31 years later it still far exceeds what you can buy new in the sports cars under $35k range. Plus its easy to drive under all conditions, ownership costs are low for a well sorted example. Not much of a back seat.
