This very nice 1985 1/2 is original with the exception of one re-paint.  It is factory optioned with sunroof, leather seats, 7 inch Fuchs on front, 8 inch Fuchs on rear and cruise control.  This car runs and drives great.  This is not a project.  Really, no excuses, it is a great driving car to take anywhere.  The only problems are the cruise control works when it wants, the rear hatch pins do not hold all of the time, the rear main seal leaks oil and the clock does not work.  It has slept in a climate controlled garage for the last 21 years that I know of.  I have most of the original documentation and the services are up to date including the timing belt and tensioner 300 miles ago.  The tires have less than 1,000 miles on them.  The seats have the original optional leather surfaces and are in very good condition.  That means that the leather is not ripped or torn but has some color worn off of the side bolster from sliding in and out and a thin wear spot on the seat bottom.  The original leather steering wheel has very little wear.  The AC works great and the heater valves function properly.  The dash is cracked.  The red paint shows well however there are numerous nicks and dings and imperfections from driving the car including a walnut ding on the roof.  The rock guard coating around the wheel openings is flaking off because the repaint was over the coating, see the pictures, it is not rust. The wheels are in very good condition with little to no curb rash.   Recent services include new motor mounts, complete tune, oil change and timing belt.  The original Blaupunkt was replaced with a Pioneer unit but I still have it.  

You will truly enjoy this unmodified well kept Porsche.

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.

Porsche Supercup racer dies in crash in Australia

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

Even with great strides made towards increasing the safety of motor racing, fundamentally it's still a dangerous sport. And now it has claimed another life.
That life belonged to one Sean Edwards, an accomplished GT racing driver. Edwards was killed at Queensland Raceway in Australia, riding shotgun in a Porsche 996 GT3 while acting as instructor. The driver was airlifted to hospital with critical injuries. Sean Edwards was 26.
The son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards (whose car he drove in the filming of Rush), Sean won the European GT3 Championship in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to repeat victories at the 24 Hours of Dubai as well as this year's Nürburgring 24 Hours. Edwards had been competing in the Porsche Supercup, whose standings he currently leads with just two rounds to go, and could be crowned champion posthumously.
