The Industrial Revolution saw the mass production of decorated textiles and decorated pillows became a common feature in millions of homes. The 944 was on Car and Driver's Ten Best list from 1983 through 1985, and the Turbo made the list for 1986.

The difficulty of sophisticated dyes and sewing techniques lead to the development of pillows as an art form, with highly decorated pillows becoming prized commodities first in China and later in Medieval Europe. The 944 S2 is the best choice among the 944's because its gas mileage is better than the Turbo's and has considerable horsepower for a normally-aspirated engine (208hp for the US model). They were originally used mainly by the wealthy, and have been found in Ancient Egyptian tombs. During its time, the 944 S2 had the largest 4-cylinder petrol engine in the world (3.0L). Pillows have a long history, having been used by almost all settled peoples to enhance quality of life. Today it is actually necessary to equip the S2 with the 951 (944 Turbo) gearbox because this one is the only one with an oil cooler that is necessary through the immense torque. Sleeping without a pillow can cause discomfort and soreness for some people, but it seems completely healthy to sleep without a pillow. An additional 5640 944S2 cabriolets were produced in these years, with 2,402 being exported to the United States.

Some pillows may also provide additional aids to relaxation, such as a heating pad or aromatherapy. A total of at least 6,439 944S2 were made between 1989-1991, with 1,929 being exported to the United States.
. Torque was a problem at low RPM, power curve started at 5,000 RPM to 6,800 RPM. The design of each pillow reflects the type of support that it is intended to provide. A total of 12,936 944S were made between 1987-1988, with 8,688 being exported to the United States. A pillow is designed to provide both support and comfort to the area of the body resting upon it. "SP" designates a sport package option..

When a pillow is placed on a flat surface the poof point is the crest of the pillow roundness. A different source, Jerry Sloniger's article in the October 1991 issue of Excellence indicates that the factory built 525, of which 255 were exported to markets outside Germany. Each corner of a pillow is refered to as a nib. * - Includes 1000 Turbo S
† - Includes 625 Turbo Cabriolet. A rough rule of thumb: if you fold your pillow in half and it doesn't spring back, it's time to get a new pillow. A total of 25,107 944 Turbos were made, with 14,235 being exported to the United States. Even with regular washing, pillows tend to accumulate large amounts of dust and vast numbers of microbes among the fill and it is recommended that they be replaced every few years, especially for those with allergies. A total of 113,070 944s were made between 1982 and 1989, with 56,921 being exported to the United States.

Bed pillows do not have this feature, and instead a case is used that can be frequently and easily removed and washed. The 968 debuted in 1992 and was sold alongside the 928 through 1995, when both models were discontinued. Pillows on furniture normally include a zipper in this cover so that the fill can occasionally be removed and the covering laundered. Porsche quickly rethought their plans, and shifted development from a 944 S3 to a car that would replace the 944 entirely, dubbed 968. The fill is then surrounded with a cover or shell made of some form of cloth or silk, commonly referred to as the pillow case. Once invested into the development process, they realized that so many parts were being changed that their "evolution" had really amassed to an almost entirely new vehicle. Historically feathers and down were the choice of the rich; today artificial fills are the most common. In early 1990, Porsche engineers began working on what they had intended to be the third evolution of the 944, the S3.

Traditionally straw was a common filler, but this is uncomfortable and rarely used today. The S2 was also available as a cabriolet, a first for the 944 line. Starting at the center, pillows contain a filler made from any of a variety of materials including, foam, synthetic fills, feathers, or down. The 944S2 had the same rounded nose and valence body of the Turbo model. The pillow has parts and can be dissected. This was the only year for the 2.7 L, as this year saw the introduction of the 944S2 with a 3.0 L engine displacement which saw sales through 1991. . The regular 944 displacement was increased to a 2.7 L engine.

Also used to describe verbal acknowledgement during an audio interview which leaves the soundtrack filled with "Yeah", "I know, yeah" etc. In 1989 the 'S' was dropped from the 944 Turbo S, and all 944 Turbos featured the 'S' package as standard. To Pillow:(Dublin colloquial) A verb which describes the act of performing poorly at a task, leaving a group before the completion of a task, not pulling ones weight during a project, poor attendance at meetings during a project, relying mostly on the effort of others to get by in life. Starting with the 88 model year, dual air bags became standard equipment on all 944 series. By analogy, in engineering and construction, supporting elements may also be called pillows. For the 87 model year, ABS anti-lock brakes became an available option. There are also throw pillows which are pillows that are purely decorative and not designed for support or comfort. 1988 saw the introduction of the 944 Turbo S, with 250 bhp (186 kW) and a standard limited slip differential.

A pillow is a type of bedding— a small (and usually soft) support for the head, usually used while sleeping in a bed, or for the body as used on a couch or chair. The 944S had a little more power thanks in part to the series' first sixteen valve engine, as well as other slight improvements. Using a pillow between the knees while sleeping on the side can prevent the upper leg from pulling downward and creating a twist in the spine. In 1987 a "Super" version, the 944S (naturally-aspirated), was introduced while dual air-bags and an anti-lock braking system were introduced as options on the base model. Using a pillow under the knees while sleeping on the back can relieve low back pain by helping to reduce the curve of the lower back in this position. Major engine component revisions, more than 30 in all, were made to the 951 to compensate for increased internal loads and heat. These pillows are generally used while driving or sitting for extended periods of time, such as in an office chair. The Turbo also featured several other revisions, such as improved aerodynamics, a strengthened gearbox, wider wheels and uprated suspension.

Lumbar pillows are designed to support the inward curve of the lower back, filling the space created when in a sitting position. This had a turbocharged and intercooled version of the standard car's engine that produced 220 bhp (164 kW) at 6000 rpm. These pillows are used primarily by individuals who have suffered an injury to the tailbone area or who suffer pain from hemorrhoids or another ailment of the colon. In 1985 Porsche introduced the 944 Turbo, a higher-performance variant, known internally as the 951. Donut pillows are shaped like a donut, with a space in the middle to alleviate pressure on the tailbone area. The "cookie cutter" style wheels used in the early 944s were upgraded to the new "phone dial" style wheels. It is conventionally used to prop oneself upright while in bed, as for reading or watching television. Other changes included a change in oil sump capacity, new front and rear cast aluminum control arms and semi-trailing arms, a larger fuel tank, optional heated and powered seats, revised starter, and revisions in the mounting of the transaxle to reduce noise and vibration.

A husband pillow (also known as a bedrest) is a large, high-backed pillow with two "arms". The alternator was upgraded from a 90 amp alternator to a 115 amp alternator. Their convenient "U" shape fits around the neck and keeps the head from slipping into an uncomfortable and possibly harmful position during sleep. The interior's ergonomics and air conditioning system was improved and the radio antenna also moved from a standard vertical position to being embedded in the windshield. Travel pillows provide support for the neck and head in a sitting position. In mid-1985 the 944's underwent its first significant changes. These can also be known as cervical pillows. Porsche had to pay Mitsubishi a fee of $8 for every engine using this system.

Neck pillows support the neck by providing a deep area for the head to rest and a supportive area to keep the neck in alignment. The 944's engine used the patented balance shaft technology developed by Mitsubishi (as used in the 2.6 L Astron engine) to minimise vibration. This type of pillow can be especially useful in providing support for those who sleep on their sides and for pregnant women. Compared to the 924, the 944 had updated bodywork and many improved parts such as its engine, brakes etc. Body pillows are as long as a full adult body, providing support to the head and neck at the top and to the knees and legs lower down. The 944 was introduced in 1982 with a 2.5 L straight-4 engine whose design was based on one half of the Porsche 928's V8 engine. .

The 944 was a huge success for Porsche throughout the 1980s, and was available in several forms throughout its evolution: 944, 944S, 944 Turbo, and the 944S2. Production ended in 1991 when it was replaced by the Porsche 968. It was introduced in 1982 to replace the Porsche 924 as their entry level model, although the two cars were sold in parallel for a number of years. The Porsche 944 was a high performance sports car produced by German auto manufacturer Porsche.
