This car is perhaps one of the best examples of a 944 Turbo you've seen. This auto has been maintained using well known Porsche shops and OEM parts to maintain the reliability and performance. Adult owned and maintained, previous owners have used Eurosports, Fischer Motorcars or EuroWorks Ltd. for maintenance and service. The 30K service included replacement of: Clutch, Timing Belt, Rollers, Brake Master Cylinder. At 46K motor mounts, steering rack, water pump and AC were replaced. Mobile 1 oil since new. Around 58K I had the transmission and rear end oils changed with a routine oil change. Most recent services at 63K included; Timing Belt, Rollers, Water Pump, Thermostat, Timing Gear and Tensioner and All Drive Belts. This was done as preventive maintenance. New Battery and oil 1 were changed at 67K. The engine, turbo, transmission all run smooth and strong as they should, no noises or excuses. Anything that has needed attention this car received. I have most of the service records since new.
With an accident free, no rust, and low miles and major services accomplished; this truly is one of the best 944 Turbos you will find. To help you visualize the condition, I will try to outline the condition of various areas on a scale, 1 to 10 being the highest. Tires 10/10 Installed less than 500 miles ago;a new set of Yokohama 580 tires. Rims 8/10 Paint 9/10 Windshield 10/10 Dash 10/10 Front Seats 9/10 Rear Seats 9/10 Carpet 9/10 Headliner 9/10 I have taken extra pictures to show you the various items mentioned above. If you have any questions, please e-mail me before bidding, I will respond to your questions.
Externally and Internally you will find this in wonderful condition. There is a small scratch on the left front area where the spoiler bolts up against the fender. A bolt came out and allowed the two pieces to rub. This was corrected, but has left a couple of scratches. A close up photo is included in the pictures. There are some small pits on the left front nose from driving on the Interstate, not very noticeable, but there. Picture is included of this area. The factory alarm is in place but does not work. Since this lives in my garage I have not had it looked at. If an alarm is needed, I would suggest maybe looking into current offerings as I would imagine they offer newer features and technology. Included is a protective cover for the removable sun roof. Also included is a nice bra for protection on the frontal area.
I have had this beauty for 7+ years and reluctantly have decided to sell it. I need the room in the garage for my wife's new car, so I am offering this at what I believe is a very fair price for a very nice fast 944 Turbo. I have set a buy it now price and expect to get something near that for this beauty. I will of course entertain offers. Thanks for looking.

Porsche Cayenne GTS, base models revealed ahead of LA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Porsche unveiled a slew of refreshed Cayennes just a few months ago, but the base model (right) and high-performance GTS trim (above) were conspicuously absent from that list. There's no more reason to wonder about them, though, because the German brand plans to unveil both at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19.
Sitting below the Turbo in the lineup, the latest GTS still offers plenty of performance. It drops the previous version's naturally aspirated V8 in favor of a tuned version of the twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6 from the Cayenne S for some added oomph. The tweaks bring power up to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque, which is enough to rocket the model to 62 miles per hour in an estimated 5.2 seconds. The bump also equates to 20 hp and 39 lb-ft more than the current S and more importantly 20 hp and 62 lb-ft more than the previous GTS, according to Porsche.
In addition to the extra muscle, Porsche also decks the GTS out with some added features. It comes with a standard sport exhaust and Porsche Active Suspension Management system with an air suspension lets the chassis sit about three-quarters of an inch lower (20 millimeters). To bring things to a halt, the high-performance models also takes its brakes from the Turbo model.
Porsche Panamera Turbo S vs Ariel Atom Supercharged in unlikely drag battle
Thu, 01 May 2014David versus Goliath battles are always an enticing proposition, because they offer the chance to watch scrappy underdogs take on their bigger rivals. Evo has set up just such a battle with its latest drag race between the minimalist Ariel Atom 3.5 Supercharged (Ariel Atom 3 pictured below) and the plush Porsche Panamera Turbo S.
The two cars couldn't be more different. The Atom personifies Lotus founder Colin Chapman's well-known axiom: "Simplify, then add lightness." Most of the car doesn't even have a body; it's just an exposed frame with a 310 horsepower supercharged Honda four-cylinder mounted behind the driver. On the other side, there's the Panamera Turbo S. In the latest version, it packs 570 hp and 553 pound-feet from its 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 and it features all-wheel drive. Of course, all of that comes with a significant weight penalty.
Off the line, the differences are even more apparent. The Atom doesn't have any of the Porsche's technological wizardry, so launching it challenges the driver to build the revs and let out the clutch just right. The car screams like a banshee as it goes, though. The Porsche is the exact opposite. Its launch control system lets the driver hold down the brake, get on the throttle and accelerate away in just the right way.
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.
