Sometime back in the 1980's ('86 or '87 IIRC), Car and Driver magazine actually picked the 944NA as the best handling car in the world out of a field of import and domestic candidates. It even rated higher in handling than the 944 Turbo, probably because it was more nimble and had better steering response (which I agree with). I guess the 944 still hangs in there pretty well 20 years later.

I dont have power steering on my NA, yet even the slightest flick of the wheel causes a degree of turn...its the best responding car Ive ever driven...beats out the S4 Audi too O:

Now if it would just get to 60MPH..

Then again, all of the cars in the field in LeMons are at least as old...

The 944 are still awesome handling cars, and with a few mods like larger wheels/tires, shocks, springs and sways, they can compete with modern sports cars. My 1999 996 had amazing amounts of grip, and the steering has a great feel, and the brakes are worth the price of the car, but the 944 is a performance bagain.
