1991 Porsche 944 S2 Convertible 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Olathe, Kansas, United States
Up for sale is a 1991 944 S2 cabriolet. 1991 was the final year for the 944 before the launch of the 968, and this one of only 562 for the US market in 1991. Total US production for 90-91 was less than 2,400. I have enjoyed owning this car for 5 years, as was my daily driver until I started working from home last year. Car has been well kept, runs and drives great. The car is equipped with power windows, locks, and top, plus cruise control. All power options, a/c & heat work, and I added an Alpine AM/FM CD player with Bluetooth. The paint is in good shape with a few small chips. Prior to my ownership some paint work was done behind the passenger door and there are some very small rust bubbles. Would be very easy to sand and paint (see picture for detail). Top is an aftermarket replacement of unknown age, and has visible wear, but rear window is clear. The interior is in okay condition. Dash is in great shape (see picture) but passenger seat has a seam separation across the bottom. Air bags have been removed, but will be included with the sale. Car comes with original top boot, tool kit, air compressor & all books with factory pouch. Upgrades and maintenance:
There is a recent problem with the car. It has begun to use coolant. No visible smoking, but I have to assume its a problem with the head gasket. As I mentioned, the car runs and drives great, pulls strongly through the rev range with no problems, but I do not know the cause of the issue. This is a great commuter car, fun in the summer, and great for autocross events. Would a great candiate for an LS swap if you wanted more power. Thank you for your consideration, and please contact me with any questions at 913-486-2006. There is a deposit of $500, payable only via PayPal. Deposit is required within 48hrs of auction close. Final payment and delivery/shipping arrangements made at the completion of this sale. I reserve the right to end the auction early as I have the car for sale locally. |

Proof the world revolves around the Porsche Cayman
Sat, 27 Apr 2013Or at least the world revolves underneath the Porsche Cayman, in the latest video showing off Stuttgart's mid-engine coupe. Porsche put an Easter egg in the world that spins triple-time, a "famous relative" of the Cayman hidden somewhere on the marble planet, and gave a Porsche Martini bag to one of the first 50 people who could point it out.
With more than 300 views there's no chance you'll win the bag, but you can still go on the treasure hunt in the video below.
Porsche 918 Spyder to birth stretched 2+2 version?
Fri, 23 Aug 2013Porsche is known for its ability to spin off a litter of variants from a single model, and according to a report in Automobile the 918 Spyder (pictured here) might not be spared the house trick. Having taken too many brains and too much money for too much time, company chiefs are said to be examining ways to get more for their development euro out of the supercar, and Plan A is apparently otherwise known as Plan 984. That would be a four-seater, rear-wheel drive supercar that uses a stretched mold of the 918's carbon fiber tub, keeping the V8 in the same mid-mounted place and costing around 350,000 euro.
That would be less than half the MSRP of its inspiration, but the details don't sketch out a car that's just half as good. Automobile speculates it would get something like 700 horsepower in order to best the coming 911 GT2, and about 440 pound-feet of torque. The 984 is quite a ways short of being confirmed; even though a full-size study is said to exist, it's like the 918 would need to become a bigger sales hit for the 984 to happen.
The 984's fortunes don't change those of the 960, the supercoupe Porsche is building to challenge Ferrari. Its potential specs haven't changed since the last report in January, power coming from a 5.0-liter, twin-turbo, eight-cylinder boxer engine with something like 650 hp pushing a curb weight of roughly 3,100 pounds. The means a suspected 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of 2.5 seconds.
New J.D. Power Initial Quality Study puts Porsche, GM in spotlight
Wed, 19 Jun 2013J.D. Power and Associates has released its annual Initial Quality Study, and this year, Porsche and General Motors took the spotlight. The study, which asks new car owners to report problems experienced during the first 90 days of ownership, found that overall, the industry averages 113 problems per 100 vehicles.
Porsche managed a score of just 80 problems per 100 vehicles, while GMC took the second spot on the podium with 90. Lexus filled out the top three with 94 problems per 100 vehicles, followed by Infiniti at 95 and Chevrolet at 97. The study also looks at specific models, and found the Lexus LS to enjoy the best initial quality at 59 problems per 100 vehicles.
Interestingly enough, the report found that around two-thirds of most owner problems experienced in the first 90 days are attributable to vehicle design instead of mechanical failure. Specifically - echoing a refrain we've been hearing for the last few years - owners are having a hard time figuring out how to use the technology present in their new vehicles. Head over to the J.D.
