The Screamer: A $200,000+ Porsche 944 Turbo

PCA Hurricane Region Member Steve Bastian has loved Porsches since the 1980s, and instead of pouring his automotive passion into just air-cooled or rear-engined cars (he has those, too), his pride and joy is a highly modified 1989 944 Turbo that he lovingly refers to as a "944 RS." We saw it at PCA's Werks Reunion Amelia Island this year, and when we learned Bastian and the previous owner had more than $200,000 invested in it, we had to find out more.
Bastian's 944 Turbo is a far cry from how it rolled off the factory line, with the inline four bored out to 2.7 liters and 400+ horsepower plus braking and suspension upgrades to match. The exterior color is a custom formulation based off of Porsche Fashion Gray, and the interior has been spared no expense. Watch the video above, and be sure to read the in-depth article in the December 2018 Porsche Panorama: www.pca.org/panorama/edition/...

Typically I'd youtube 944 videos and get a bunch of ppl setting the camera by the exhaust pipe doing engine rev's as if it's intriguing. This video is hands down the best (American) 944 video I've seen to date, damn Im proud to own a 944.

Nirupam Singh, Think you’ll be seeing more restored 944’s in the near future. They’re finally appreciating in value. Long overdue if you ask me! I’ve always had an affinity for the 944 turbo. Guys in my age bracket (early 40’s) will definitely help drive prices up.

Thanks for this video! I am much more a fan of transaxle Porsches than 911s. 911s are great but 944s, 968s and 928s deserve much more attention. They are in the shadows of the air-cooled. Thanks for getting attention to them! Really cool build! Best, 944, and 968 wishes from Taiwan.

I love my '87 944, and I'm trying so hard to keep it stock because I have all of the original items that came with the car when it was first sold (minus the window sticker) and only 75k miles (I've put 5k on it in the two years that I've owned it.). Then, I see cars like this that are tastefully modified, and it makes the temptation so real.

Sorry for my French but I exclaimed WHAT THE FUCK?! Every 30 seconds. Absolute dream I wish I could give this much love to my NA. Beautiful. Well said. Drive this car and it’s Porsche all the way. Just because it’s not a 911 doesn’t mean it’s not a fantastic machine. Engineering and design, form following function. How can you get any more purebred Porsche than that? Thanks for increasing all of our cars values lol. Exactly what I’d love to do to my car. Money is not a factor. This car is going to one of my future kids. I bought it when I was 17 in my Senior year of high school. With money that I had saved for 13+ years. Love love love this video, perfect depiction of what Porsche ownership is about. At the end of the day, we get in our cars, whether they are worth $200,000 or $4,000 and we love and cherish them. Most importantly we DRIVE them. Cheers.

The Porsche 944 is a great car. The front engine, rear transaxle design was brilliant. The styling is timeless. And of course you can go to the Porsche parts bin to upgrade. It was a car well ahead of its time, unfortunately it is now 30 years old and moving into a realm where only the rich can afford it. Much as I would like to have one I probably will have to be looking at something like the Toyota 86 or an MR2

I still don't understand how people can say a car is a $___k car when lots of that $ is in maintenance over the years or just bring the car back up to par. I understand this car is a different beast but I've met people who think because they replaced a bunch of worn parts and had the car painted that it's worth 20x the book value. IMO only mods can improve the value of an older car, and that's subhectable to each individual. Restoring a car that is actually collectable is another story.
