Welcome to 968cars.com. Your
source for online Porsche 968 information. We don't believe we are the
experts in Porsche vehicles yet try to deliver informative info and statistics
including a brief history, specifications and Porsche 968 events.
The Porsche 968 is fundamentally the descendant to the Porsche 944. It
has the classic GT front engine, rear wheel drive layout with the added
benefit of a rear transaxle giving almost perfect weight allocation. The
low nose line and wide wheel arches help to emphasize the good-looking
lines of this classic shape, a reel head turner especially in Porsche
Guards Red livery.
The concealed headlights of the 944 have gone and been restored with visible
pop up headlights similar to the Porsche 928, helping to bring the look
of the car in line with the look of the 928 and the 911 (964) at that
time. The practical benefit is that the headlights get washed along with
the rest of the car instead of having to pop them up to wash them.
The interior remains as fashioned in the 944 with the famous "oval
dash". The same robust materials have been used which have given
all Porsche owners many years of trouble free motoring.
