1987 Porsche 928 S4 - 5 Speed - Lsd - Rare on 2040-cars
Burlington, Ontario, Canada
|
Up for sale is my very rare 1987 Porsche 928 S4, 5 speed with LSD and sport seats. It is 1 of 12 1987 928's sold in Canada with a manual transmission, limited slip differential and sport seats, 1 of 79 worldwide with these options for 1987. The car is also an early 1987 with the hinged rear wing. All 87's had the squirter block, knock sensors etc., great for Supercharging and the motor is ready.
I'm the third owner of the car, I purchased it from the second owner who purchased it from his neighbor after he passed away in 2004. The car has been meticulously cared for since day 1, including all service records to new, every tank of gas recorded in a little log book, along with dates that it went into winter storage etc. The car is in showroom condition from head to toe. The interior has been so well cared for by each owner that there is no excessive wear, even on the seat bolsters. The wheels are original anodized finish with new Potenza RE-11's. This past winter I refreshed the motor from top to bottom, new timing belt, water pump, seals, motor mounts etc. While the motor was apart I had everything professionally powder coated. Brand new brakes all around as well. And the list goes on, far too much to list here. The car is stock except for the following: -Cat delete H-pipe -Rear Muffler Bypass -Powersport drilled and slotted brake rotors -Audi timing belt tensioner (maintenance free) -Blaupunkt BT 420 head unit -Raised center arm rest cover -Clear bra on hood and top of front bumper (just installed in June) Also included are the following stock parts: -Stock cat with original o2 sensor -Rear muffler -Air pump -Original timing belt tensioner -Stock audio amplifier -Stock center armrest lid The car is 100% complete with the original tool kit, wheel locks, belts, flat tire bag, spare tire & jack, sunroof crank, all manuals and warranty book etc. Even the original salesman's business card. The first owner had the bumpers and sides of the car painted (1997) due to light scratches/dings from use. To be honest you can hardly tell, many people ask me if the paint is original since it looks so good. I just gave it some clay and wax and it looks spectacular. This car could sit in any showroom and feel right at home.Please message me for more info, I have hundreds of pictures of the work I have done, clean car fax in hand, a detailed blog during my owner ship, scans of the log book etc. You will not find another 87 5spd in this condition or with the incredibly detailed history. Values are starting to climb on pristine examples as they are getting harder to find. US buyers, this car is admissible to the US, and will be delivered with the required dealer letter from Porsche. For more information please contact your local DMV and or Customs Agency. I can deliver the car to the Buffalo border if necessary. PPI's welcomed, at buyers expense. FYI the car has 187xxx km's or 117xxx k miles on the clock. Thanks for looking |

How Porsche got Patrick Dempsey into the driver's seat for Le Mans
Tue, 27 Aug 2013How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice. Ask Patrick Dempsey and he'll likely tell you the same secret for landing a role on a hit TV show or, for that matter, driving a Porsche in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
That's because, like McQueen and Newman, Dempsey has earned his place in that rarified field of actors who also race. He's competed in Baja and Grand-Am, co-owns an IndyCar team, and this year returned to Le Mans where he and his teammates Joe Foster and Patrick Long finished fourth in the GTE-Am class behind the wheel of their Porsche 911 RSR.
It's a grueling race, and the fluid transition between drivers behind the wheel is a key element to success. Check out the satirical video below to see how Dempsey and company got ready.
New Porsche 4-cyl engines to range from 1.6L to 2.5L
Mon, 02 Jun 2014Recent rumors of a turbocharged, flat-four-engine from Porsche for the Boxster (pictured testing above), Cayman and maybe other models go back over a year. The latest scuttlebutt indicates that there could be three variants on the horizon with 1.6-, 2.0- and 2.5-liter displacements and power as high as 360 horsepower.
Car magazine in the UK claims to have access to the specifications for the project and thinks the 2.0- and 2.5-liter versions are guaranteed for production for the Boxster and Cayman. However, it believes a question mark still looms over the 210-hp 1.6L because the engine would go into a new, smaller sports car that still doesn't have a green light for production.
Regardless of displacement, the new fours would be turbocharged and direct-injected. The 2.0-liter would produce around 286 hp and 295 pound-feet of torque, and the 2.5-liter would make about 360 hp and 347 lb-ft. Earlier reports pegged some parts sharing with the current flat-six.
Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy
Wed, 24 Jul 2013J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.
