1988 Porsche 924s Le Mans  N0. 414 of 500

Pristine As NEW!   

This is a rare time capsule 924S Le Mans 1 of 500 Made for the USA. It is as new off the show room floor no flaws period. An Investment Quality Porsche that will out perform the stock market or a savings account at your local bank. Though it only has 22,000 miles on it, we performed a major service of new timing belts by a certified Porsche Service Center, with all rollers, new water pump, new fluids, new battery, and new tires. There are no cracks in the dash, the interior is flawless, the radio is OEM Blaupunkt with cassette deck. Everything is OEM working and as new.  This 924 has the same engine as the 944 a 160 BHP engine plus an electric tilt/removable sunroof fitted as standard and includes its cover bag, and a Special 1988 LeMans Plaque.

In 1988, Porsche offered a limited-edition 924S Le Mans to celebrate the company’s win in the 24-hour race. The Le Mans featured uprated and lowered suspension (10mm at the front and 15mm rear) and ‘telephone dial’ wheels. It was available only in Alpine White or Black, with ‘Le Mans’ decals down each side. The interior boasted distinctive striped fabric seats and an electric sunroof as standard.980 examples of the 924S Le Mans were built. ONLY 500 CAME TO THE USA!

This 924S was actually faster than its 944 cousin as it was lighter and had a more aerodynamic body style – probably not exactly, what Porsche had wanted to achieve.

1988 Porsche 924S Le Mans edition finished in Black over Gray interior and this one is quite possibly the nicest one left! Coming loaded with options such as; sport suspension, mudguards, cloth sport seats, air conditioning, removable sunroof, power steering, Blaupunkt Charleston radio, 3-spoke steering wheel, red carpet, and cloth door panels. No history of accidents or paintwork, this car is the real deal! Comes with all books and 3 keys.

You cannot judge this 924s by all the tired, worn out, spent, or high mileage EBay finds that are on the market. This has never been tracked and was stored inside for over two decades and is possibly the finest example of the first 50/50 weight distribution water-cooled Porsches on the Planet!

 

NO TIRE KICKERS There may be now finer example on the planet!  A rock solid investment!

Why you must buy an air-cooled Porsche 911 now

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

"Because" might be a good response to our headline, but as a vintage (purists might call 'proper') Porsche 911 is hardly cheap, we suspect you'll need a better explanation than that. Enter Drive editor Mike Spinelli.
Spinelli sits down with Zac Moseley and Mick Prichinello from Classic Car Club Manhattan to first explain why the market for old, air-cooled 911s has gotten so hot over the past few years, and to discuss if it's a bubble that's about to burst. Following that, this video is really is just three guys sitting around talking about old Porsches for 35 minutes. Which, you know, we're pretty onboard with.
Scroll down and have a look at the latest episode of After/Drive, from Drive.

Jack Olsen built one Porsche to do it all

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Jack Olsen has built himself a lair called the 12-Gauge Garage, and inside that garage he built a lairy Porsche 911 nicknamed Black Beauty II. Although it looks like one of Stuttgart's models from the sixties or seventies, it is actually four decades of 911 gubbins from 1965 to 2000 thrown under one shell: the lightweight body is from 1972, the transaxle from 1977, the brakes from a 1986 Turbo, the engine from 1995, for example. It weighs 2,400 pounds and it's got 272 horsepower to get it going, but it's still a pure Porsche, Olsen saying, "If you stop thinking about what you're doing, it will remind you in very abrupt ways."
Olsen said the real point has been to have one car that does it all, so he does everything in his 911 from neighborhood runs to 7-11 to track racing - he loads the aero bits in the car and bolts them on trackside. And he says he'll never stop tweaking the suspension.
You can watch and hear the rest in Olsen's words in the video below.

Porsche close to fix for 911 GT3 engine fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

It looks like 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 drivers might actually get to drive their cars again soon. Reports of fires affecting the track-ready Germans first began about a month ago. Then, a few days later, the automaker confirmed two of the five alleged blazes and said owners shouldn't drive their cars until further notice. Porsche then went so far as to offer to pick up the GT3s and transport them to the nearest dealer until the problem was identified and a fix was found. Finally, there appears to be a repair.
"We know the reason and the problem-solving measures. We're testing them," said Porsche CEO Matthias Müller to Bloomberg. The technical fix will be released to owners shortly.
The recall affects all 785 GT3s that have been sold so far, but there have been no reported injuries caused by the fires. When it first announced the safety campaign, Porsche said: "Internal studies to determine the cause of the engine damage have not been completed yet."
