Porsche 944 Production Details

For more details, we have broken out Porsche 944 production in more detail. Please click on the table to see more details, including the split between USA and Rest of World sales. We have tried to call out the little details, like special edition models throughout the years. For instance Porsche and Callaway collaborated and it resulted in 20 specially built turbo 944’s built for the US market in 1983. We also noted cars like the 1985 a Prototype 944 S Cabriolet ‘Studie’ built by Braun (it was powered by the 2.5 L 16 valve which developed 185 hp). There are notes for the Australian market Porsche 944s produced as well as the Turbo Cup cars, which we broke our separately.
