You are bidding on a nice clean low mile (ODO indicates 45,764) driver quality 928.
It runs strong with no smoke or unusual oil consumption. The tires are 90% (Riken Raptors) and the wheels are factory original. The interior is in very good condition with wear commensurate with it's age and low miles; no rips tares or excess wear and shows very well (dash shows some warping of the leather around the defrost vents but is otherwise clean). All glass is in excellent condition. All heat, vent, interior/exterior lighting, power windows, and vacuum power lock systems work well.
The headlight washers work fine, but the windshield washer pump needs to be replaced. A/C needs service. The cruise control engages, but is intermittent. Shifts from 1st to 2nd crunch a bit, but only when the trans axle is cold (if you have done your homework you know that this is a common problem with the early models), but shifts fine after warm up. Handling is fantastic and in my opinion this is one of the best handling models that Porsche ever built (I recently replaced the tie rods, front wheel bearings and engine shocks). It is the base model with the posi option so it does well in the snow. I has had a recent re-spray and looks very presentable. Comes with a late model Alpine Stereo/CD.
This car is one of my very frequent drivers and has never let me down. Again, do some research and you will find that these cars are solid with some great testimonials about there longevity and dependability. This is the true average guys super car! Feel free to call me and check my feedback! Mike 719-491-1295

Watch Carrera Cup driver Connor de Phillippi's first lap of the N"urburgring
Thu, 23 May 2013American race driver Connor de Phillippi was recently added to the roster of Porsche Juniors, the arm of Porsche's factory racing program that develops new talent. The 20-year-old is contesting the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland series with FÖRCH Racing by Lukas Motorsport, and last weekend, he raced the series round at the Nürburgring. Starting 15th on the grid, de Phillippi would cross the line in ninth out of 32 finishers.
Courtesy of his in-car camera, you can watch his entire first lap in the video below - there's no music added, just engine whine during nine minutes of crests, turns, bumpy straights and that wicked Carousel. Enjoy.
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Magnus Walker turbocharges his love for the Porsche 911
Thu, 31 Oct 2013He's had his fill of early, long-hood Porsche 911s - he owns at least one from each model year, from 1964 to 1973 - so Magnus Walker, a fanatic of the Stuttgart, Germany-based automaker, recently set his sights on the early Porsche 930, as documented by this XCAR video called 'Turbo Fever.' Let us translate: pretty soon Walker will own all of the earliest, non-intercooled 911 Turbos - at least one from each model year, starting at 1975 and ending at 1977 (though the 1975 911 Turbo Carrera never officially was imported to the US by Porsche, so it'll be tougher to find one Stateside).
Any Porsche enthusiast can tell you why they love their car, and it often comes down to the small details that differentiate one model year from another. One of many examples is the mid-'80s 928. They look similar, but the basic difference between a 1984 Porsche 928 S and a 1985 928 S (US-spec) is two camshafts and 54 horsepower, though each car's V8 has its own pros and cons. We'll let Magnus Walker tell you all about the 930 and what makes the first three years special, as he's becoming quite the expert on early, air-cooled 911s. When the nearly 15-minute mini-documentary was filmed, which you can view below, he already had added four early 930s to his collection!
