1987 944 Porsche. Great condition considering the age, Alpine stereo that works with an iPhone/iPod and remote. Excellent gas mileage (about 29 mpg highway) car drives well and really strong motor. AC blows cold air, and works great. 5 speed manual transmission, shifts smooth.
I own and insure 7 vehicles and that's more cars than I need. Several need to go, including this one. I've driven it less than 600 miles this year including a drive to Myrtle Beach. The odometer broke at approximately 127,000 miles, but it's been well maintained and is probably less than 140,000 actual miles. The previous owner spent more than $4000 upgrading the car, new hoses, sensors, electronics, also, the power sun roof has a mechanism to disconnect it and remove it, place it in the hatch and enjoy the sun. The power Windows have Heavy Tint, sides and Hatch, great job controlling the temperature but each state may vary with what level of tint is acceptable and what is not approved.
The dash has a cap on it but it is coming up in several places and it would be best to have someone glue it back down. The cap is still in good shape, just needs to be glued down again.
Seats have signs of wear meaning the seat upholstery has separated at the seams in several places, nothing coming apart and rides comfortably but not as attractive as it once was. The electronic aspect of the seats works fine. The alarm system that was standard on this car was not working when I purchased it several years ago and I do not have the second key for that system.
All WearGuard floormats and great sound, nice drive and you'll have a great time with this car.
I did not renew the registration in April so it needs an inspection but ready to roll. I have it listed here based on what I paid but give me an idea of what your best offer is and we can go from there. And please understand, I do not finance the sale, so bring cash or a cashier's check.
The windows have heavy tint, approved in Georgia and I've not had any problems getting it inspected here, but I'm told it could be problematic with some inspectors.
The front pads brake sensor is broken and always on but the pads/rotors are good, anyway, all and all a good and really fun car to drive. Technically, it has a back seat but it's tight for normal people and difficult to use with a tall driver. I've never used it, but it's there.
If you saw this listing earlier you noticed it was briefly taken down. That was due to a discrepancy in the title status. Apparently there was a rear end collision involving this car and was issued a rebuilt title at that point some 15 years ago. I was unaware of it but that's what's listed on the Car Fax, thus the change. Nevertheless, I hold a clean title and that's what I'll give you at the time of sale. Again, I was unaware of the work but that's what's on the report. Thus the change. Thanks!

Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.
Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.
2014 Porsche Cayman S
Thu, 29 Aug 2013Second Fiddle Moves To First Chair
In the interest of full disclosure and a bit of bloodletting, allow me to admit that while I've always coveted the Porsche Boxster and its hard-hatted Cayman cousin, I've never really warmed to them visually. They've always had a certain push-me, pull-you, can't-decide-which-way-they're-going aesthetic that I've never really wrapped my head around. Porsche achieved the same thing with the original 550 Spyder's overturned bathtub bodyshell that would come to inspire the Boxster, but somehow that classic's even more symmetrical nature works for me. Fast-forward to this third generation, and at least for this enthusiast, Porsche's manchild has well and truly come of age as a design.
It's all there - a piercing stare thanks to squircle headlamps inspired by the 918 Spyder hypercar, newfound directional thrust afforded by a longer wheelbase and elongated greenhouse, and muscular rear haunches with a wider stance emphasized by larger side ductwork and snubbed overhangs. The body's teardrop shape terminates with an active spoiler that integrates into a gorgeous arc with the taillamps like a budding ducktail nod to 1973 911 Carrera RS. Despite casting a longer shadow than its predecessor, the 2014 Cayman still looks tidily proportioned, smooth and wieldy, the perfect skipping stone to ricochet down a canyon river road.
