With the 1980s moving ever further into history, it’s a good time to recognize a car from 1984 now fits what was recently the definition of a modern classic – 30ish years old now applies to many popular cars from that decade. Nonetheless, it’s hard to argue that many 1980s cars have a vintage feel, perhaps because they’d already moved on from carburetors, leaf springs, and other things we left behind in that decade. So it’s hard to understand why classic car events don’t seem to embrace the newer cars – you can’t run many of the vintage car rallies in a 944, for example, even though you could have done so with a 32-year-old Porsche 914 back in 2006. The counterpoint is that these modern classics still function pretty well as daily drivers, so part of the reason is many enthusiasts just don’t need a classic car event as an excuse to bring their classic out. With that in mind, let’s check out this 1984 Porsche 944 for sale for the very odd price of $3672 in Estacada, OR.
