1984 Porsche 928 S at 77,xx actual miles).(U.S. legal  euro spec car). Exterior: Shiny black paint. Black canvas top with  power glass sun roof both are rare. Some Porsche people say its factory installed, some say euro after market. I don't know but the headliner is molded to/for the larger shaded  glass sun roof.(maybe it was a euro trend back in the day).  The interior is blue with all new matching blue leather seating, new foam padding as well. medium blue. Good carpet/ Porsche logo matts, has the spare tire and tool kit' all lights and power options work with the exception of: the heat temp. adjusting lever it works, just on or off, fan speeds all work. The a/c did work  (says the previous owner till the belt tensioner got broke/ bent),  I saw that its all there  belt as well, just wont tighten enough. The period correct 16" gold center BBS rims are in great shape, no weird  tire wear patterns. (The Oregon title says  reconstructed, haven't learned what this represents). However my S 10 deemed totaled  after a deer strike at 30mph and slowing. Yep, $113.00 ,of E bay after market parts, head light, grill & blinker and its to/from work again. Not to say the DMV is wrong, just that the Porsche drives/feels like a 77,xxx mile car and a body shop did a great job. (Yes the front spoiler/bib) is missing. The older gent. I bought this from said he hit a parking stop and then took it off. I'd bet that's when the a/c quit as well. OK, the euro spec  differences : rear, no big bumps at the sides of the plate area, has red rear fog light, side markers may be different too. engine U.S. model 234 hp. this  euro with twin distributors, euro cams& 10.4:1 compression , book says 310 hp, Porsche folk know they dyno @ 330hp. Quality headers can increase these numbers by 20%. This car has those headers. So the numbers are higher 310=372hp., 330=396 at 20%.  Its a 5 speed and the final drive is 2.73. the vin # is wp0zzz92zes841383. the number in the  official box is a 914 I have  call ,email you questions be for winning the car it does drive firm, straight .

On May-21-13 at 06:51:09 PDT, seller added the following information:

hello , I didn't make clear, that there are some  e bay glitches that won't accept  euro  vin#'s .  And if the cars year is newer than 1979 it won't accept as well . That's why this add has two model year dates and  a 914 Porsche vin# . The car is a 1984.  This was the only way  to complete/comply with the auction add.   thanks

Porsche 918 Spyder to birth stretched 2+2 version?

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

Porsche is known for its ability to spin off a litter of variants from a single model, and according to a report in Automobile the 918 Spyder (pictured here) might not be spared the house trick. Having taken too many brains and too much money for too much time, company chiefs are said to be examining ways to get more for their development euro out of the supercar, and Plan A is apparently otherwise known as Plan 984. That would be a four-seater, rear-wheel drive supercar that uses a stretched mold of the 918's carbon fiber tub, keeping the V8 in the same mid-mounted place and costing around 350,000 euro.
That would be less than half the MSRP of its inspiration, but the details don't sketch out a car that's just half as good. Automobile speculates it would get something like 700 horsepower in order to best the coming 911 GT2, and about 440 pound-feet of torque. The 984 is quite a ways short of being confirmed; even though a full-size study is said to exist, it's like the 918 would need to become a bigger sales hit for the 984 to happen.
The 984's fortunes don't change those of the 960, the supercoupe Porsche is building to challenge Ferrari. Its potential specs haven't changed since the last report in January, power coming from a 5.0-liter, twin-turbo, eight-cylinder boxer engine with something like 650 hp pushing a curb weight of roughly 3,100 pounds. The means a suspected 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of 2.5 seconds.

Evo pits BMW M3 against Porsche Macan in drag battle

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

If you want to move five passengers in very rapid fashion and you've got a $75,000 budget, two newly introduced four-door models immediately come to mind - both are the highest performing vehicles in their respective segments. But which is faster off the line, to the 60-mile-per-hour benchmark or flat-out over an even longer run? Evo took both to paved aircraft runway to find out.
In lane one we've got the all-new Porsche Macan Turbo, which boasts a twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter V6 rated at 400 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The Porsche is fitted with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, and the 4,244-pound crossover has the traction advantage of standard all-wheel drive. In lane two is the all-new BMW M3, powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six rated at 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. It is also equipped with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, but only the rear wheels of the 3,595-pound sedan are driven. Both the BMW and Porsche arrive with launch control, which helps to remove driver error off the line.
Which automaker's launch control system is better off the line? Does all-wheel-drive grip give the crossover the advantage it needs to overcome its adversary's power-to-weight advantage? Will aerodynamics factor into the results? Which would you put in your garage, and why? The video may surprise you.
