Great example of a well preserved first year 944 Turbo. Looks amazing, drives great and ready for a new owner.


Always garaged with the exception of four months of its life when it was parked outside in Central and Southern California under a cover. Paint is nearly perfect, see photos for close ups of all blemishes. Color combination is my favorite for a 951 and is very rare. Not a single crack on the dash and interior looks nearly new. Best of all, it has the factory fresh leather smell (my favorite for Porsches of any year, make or model).

85,127 original miles. I drive it a few miles here and there so total miles will vary slightly. Includes tool kit, spare tire and service records. Recent service includes timing belt, balance shaft belt, power steering and AC belt, spark plugs, ignition wires, throttle position switch, rebuilt MAF, heater control valve, radiator, hoses, turbo thermostat, new CV Joints, oxygen sensor plus a few other things here and there. Clutch was replaced by a previous owner and feels very solid. AC needs a recharge.

Runs and drives as it should; turbo boost is perfect, idles well, stays cool, starts right up every time. I would have no issue using this as a daily driver. There are leaks that you can live with or fix: Oil pan gasket, lower balance shaft and power steering rack. I haven't had time to get to them so seals for the power steering rack and balance shaft are included. I haven't found any of these to affect performance but if you want it to be "as new" you can have these done or do it yourself.

I have the car advertised locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I've tried to be as clear as possible with details on the car but please contact me if you have any questions or if you want more information.

Thanks for looking!

Porsche Macan teaser reveals unique quad-LEDs

Fri, 11 Oct 2013

In truth, all-but-undisguised prototypes for the upcoming Porsche Macan compact crossover have been spotted galavanting all around the globe for some time now, but even the least-camouflaged examples have been caught wearing eyepatches covering their headlights and taillights. A dark new teaser image from Porsche clues us in to why that is - the baby Cayenne is getting unique quad-LED peepers up front.
Porsche has been hinting at lighting innovations in its production cars through recent concept reveals, including the stunning Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo showcar from last year's Paris Motor Show. The wagonized Panamera also featured four-point LED arrays up front, as well is in the rear, so it seems likely that this lighting will become a Porsche design signature going forward.
Powerpoint slides leaked from a recent dealer meeting suggest the Macan S will arrive packing a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6, while the Macan Turbo will boast a 3.6-liter force-fed unit, with both models receiving seven-speed PDK dual-clutch gearboxes. Pricing is expected to range from $52,000 for the S model to $75,000 for the Turbo.

Motor Trend holds World's Greatest Drag Race for the third time

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

As part of Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car competition, the buff book has held its third iteration of the World's Greatest Drag Race. With an airfield and a dozen of the world's finest performance cars at its disposal (oh, and a helicopter), the MT team did what any good group of enthusiasts would do, and tried to figure what car could cover a quarter mile the quickest. World's greatest drag race, indeed.
The contestants, as MT points out, cover a huge variety of engine types, drivelines, aspiration types and body styles, making for a genuinely varied and interesting field of competitors. Here's the full list of cars taking part.

Porsche ready to pick itself up after Le Mans failure

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

It's safe to say that things for Porsche didn't go quite as well at Le Mans this year as it might have hoped. After a sixteen-year gap, the winningest manufacturer in endurance racing history returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe this year hoping maybe not for outright victory in its first time back, but definitely a strong finish on which it could build on for next year. All the while it undoubtedly hoped its 911s would hold their own in the GT classes.
Unfortunately for Porsche, neither happened. After racing around the clock, and despite actually leading the festivities for some time, the best its 919 Hybrid could manage was an eleventh-place finish, lagging lamentably behind not only the other LMP1s (like the race-winning Audi) but also a handful of LMP2s. Meanwhile the LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am titles went to the factory-backed teams of its arch-rivals Ferrari and Aston Martin, respectively.
Not a stellar result, in other words, but Porsche is taking it all in stride - accepting that it has a ways to go while congratulating its vanquishing rivals in the video below. It's good sportsmanship if we've ever seen it. Next year's race starts now.
