1987 porsche 924 - phoenix, azspecialty auto finders & v-twin motorcyclesphoenix, az 85032ph: 6027884100web: www. A two-door, 2+2 coupé, the 924 replaced the 914 as the company's entry-level model, and was the model that finally retired the 912. In production terms, the 924 was the first porsche model powered by a water-cooled, front-mounted engine although the similarly configured 928 was designed first. The front-engine, rear wheel drive arrangement was normal for most other manufacturers, but it was unusual for porsche having previously only used mid- or rear-mounted engines of a boxer configuration, all of which had been air-cooled. It was the first porsche to be offered with a fully automatic transmission. The model was a qualified success with just over 150,000 produced (from 1977-1988), and it helped to take porsche out of financial ruin. The 924 was meant to be replaced by the closely related 944 in 1983 in the u. Market, but it returned in 1986 and continued to be produced until the 924s is a much rarer trim of the porsche 924 model. For 1987, porsche produced 8,940 924s models. 6,947 were produced in the us and 1,993 in places elsewhere. In 1984, vw decided to stop manufacturing the engine blocks used in the 2. 0 924, leaving porsche with a predicament. The 924 was considerably cheaper than its 944 stablemate, and dropping the model left porsche without an affordable entry-level option. The result was 1986's 150 bhp 924s. Porsche also decided to re-introduce the 924 to the american market with an initial price tag of under $20,000. In 1988, the 924s' final year of production, power increased to 160 bhp (119 kw; 162 ps) matching that of the previous year's le mans spec cars and the base model 944 (itself detuned by 3 bhp (2 kw; 3 ps) for 1988). This was achieved using different pistons which raised the s' compression ratio from 9. 7:1 to 10. 2:1, the knock-on effect being an increase in the octane rating, up from 91 ron to 95. This made the 924s slightly faster than the base 944 due to its lighter weight and more aerodynamic body. Call 602-541-3333 tony or 651-230-0394 matt to set an appointment!!
