CarPoint has created a unique Porsche 944 wagon, dubbed the GT-K44, which Porsche itself never built. The German company’s project stretches the coupe’s roofline into a proper shooting brake, with only 10 units to be produced.
The idea for the GT-K44 originated from the Artz 924 Turbo Kombi, a wagon conversion built by Günter Artz in the early 1980s. CarPoint founder Andreas Freund owned one of these conversions and has now created a modern version with designer Michael Söhngen.
The Conversion Process
The GT-K44 starts from a 1991 Porsche 944 S2, powered by a 3.0-liter inline-four engine producing 211 horsepower. The conversion involves extensive bodywork, including extending and raising the roofline, rebuilding the rear quarter panels, and reshaping the B-pillars.
A new tailgate with revised rear lights is also fitted, along with new side glass and custom-fitted rear glass. The car retains its 2+2 seating configuration, and each conversion requires several hundred hours of cutting, welding, and bodywork.
Beyond the structural modifications, CarPoint applies a complete exterior respray that matches the original Oak Green hue while allowing owners to specify alternative finishes, ensuring each shooting brake reflects the buyer’s personal taste. The interior receives a Pascha-pattern interior that echoes Söhngen’s original sketch. Optional equipment and individualization work can be integrated during the build. Because the conversion does not alter the drivetrain, the original 944’s balanced weight distribution is preserved, delivering the same handling characteristics that made the coupe popular among enthusiasts.
Specifications and Pricing
Customers must supply their own donor 944, although CarPoint can assist in sourcing one. The company recommends using a 944 S2 or a 944 Turbo with 220 hp or 250 hp. The conversion alone costs €100,000 before tax, or €119,000 with Germany’s 19 percent VAT added.
The price does not include the donor car, and additional features such as wheels, suspension, and interior trim are customer-specified and priced separately. CarPoint has limited the production run to just 10 units, making the GT-K44 a rare and unique vehicle.
The GT-K44’s transaxle layout and front-engine, rear-transmission balance set it apart from other Porsche reinterpretations, such as the TechArt GTclassic 911 restomod. CarPoint is targeting collectors who appreciate unusual Porsche history and are willing to spend six figures on a one-of-a-kind vehicle.
The scarcity puts the GT-K44 in company with other small-batch Porsche reinterpretations, including TechArt’s GTclassic 911 restomod, a limited-run 964-based project launched in 2026, and the slantnose-style builds that keep circulating through the tuning scene. This deliberate limitation shows the exclusivity that appeals to collectors seeking a truly rare Porsche variant.
