You are viewing a mint 1998 Carrera Cabriolet with 84K miles on it. Superbly maintained and owned by a Porsche enthusiast. You will not find a cleaner 993 anywhere.
This car has been adult driven and always garaged. This is the ultra desirable and rare 993 with tiptronic---very few of these were made and they rarely come up for sale. This 1998 is the last year Porsche made an air-cooled motor.
Everything is in good working order and the AC blows ice cold and was just serviced. The top in the picture is black but, it is going into the shop next week to get a brand new fresh grey top. I want to make sure this car is like new the for new owner. I also just had a complete engine service (6K) done less than 100 miles ago. I have receipts and your welcome to speak with the shop (Black Forest) in San Diego. The service included:
* Transmission Service---new fluids
* AC Service
* All new belts (3)
* Fresh oil change
* New Fuel Filter
* New Plug Wires ---The wires were 371 plus labor and we had to drop the motor for this another 1700 dollars
* New Plugs
* New Cabin Filters
* 4 Wheel Alignment (317)
* New Distributor Caps and Rotors
* New Cabriolet Control Unit---with a 2 year warranty
* New trunk shocks
* New valve cover gaskets
I just spent 6K on the motor and I have the receipts to prove it. This motor is very fresh and tight and will be worry free for another 80K miles. This car has a fresh motor and will have a brand new top!!! I spent all that money on the 911 because I thought I would own this car forever but, last week my wife drove a Cayenne and wanted it---I told her she could not have 2 Porsche's and I am now selling her 911.
The car has a multi-disc unit in the trunk with the spare tire, compressor, toolkit and jack. The rims and tires pictured in the photo do NOT come with the car. I am including the original Turbo 911 rims. If you are interested in purchasing the rims and tires separately please give me a call.
Bidder is responsible for shipping. Upon end of auction successful bidder will submit a NON-refundable 1,000 dollar deposit. 500 to be paid immediately and the remainder of the deposit to be paid within 24 hours. The remaining balance of the winning bid to be paid within 3 days.
Please call me prior to hitting buy it now as I am selling this locally and reserve the right to end the auction early. I ask to call me because I unfortunately have 2 negative feedbacks because I had a kids backpack and motorcycle tank bag that was listed on Ebay and I sold them at a garage sale the same day people bid for them on Ebay. I explained to them I sold them and they threw a fit and gave me negative feedback. Please see my feedback.

Porsche Cayenne spied unconstrained by camouflage
Thu, 05 Jun 2014Meet the facelifted Porsche Cayenne. Our eagle-eyed spy shooters captured this example of Porsche's freshened SUV virtually devoid of camo, giving us our clearest look yet at what the eventual mid-cycle work will do to the strong-selling Cayenne.
The overall changes do, indeed, look minor, with a reprofiled intake being the most obvious item. The headlights are still covered, so we don't know what kind of jeweling has been done, but the shape does appear identical to the current model. Overall, the changes appear totally in line with a mid-cycle refresh.
As we explained previously, a plug-in Cayenne is on the way. It will join a crop of engines that is likely to be similar to what's on offer today, with naturally aspirated, turbocharged, hybrid and diesel variants released over time.
Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
Infiniti cribs new US boss from Porsche
Mon, 19 Aug 2013Just weeks before he was supposed to become CEO of Porsche Cars Australia, Infiniti has apparently offered Porsche COO and Executive Vice President Michael Bartsch a deal he couldn't refuse. Thus, Bartsch has join the company as Vice President of Infiniti Americas, the luxury marque's top North American post. Bartsch replaces Ben Poore, who has been with the automaker since 2008, having led both a 22-percent sales surge in 2012 and the brand's current sales slough, Automotive News reports.
Bartsch, Porsche's No. 2 US executive, has held the COO and Executive Vice President positions at Porsche since 2005 and was scheduled to become CEO of Porsche's Oz division on September 1. Infiniti has experienced a number of recent personnel changes in the past week: it named Vincent Gillet, formerly an executive for Starwood Hotels & Resorts, to lead its marketing efforts worldwide and Simon Cox, a former designer for automakers including Ford and Peugeot, to head a new design studio in London.
Poore reportedly will pursue other interests outside of the auto industry. Read more about the personnel change in the press release below.
