1987 Porsche 944S twin cam, 5spd coupe. This car is in real nice shape both in and out. Body is completely solid with no past or present rust or accident damage, and has been garage kept for most of its years. Doors, hood, power sunroof, hatch, all operate properly. Glass is all perfect, as well as door/window/power roof/hatch seals. Silver paint in nice condition, with few chips/scratches, hood was repainted due to sun fading, and has a couple very minor flaws, but overall car paint is very good. Power mirror, door locks, trim all in nice shape. Burgundy "sport" interior really nice, with no rips/tears. Carpeting, door panels, headliner, dash all real good shape, with only very small cracks between the defroster opening that are not very noticeable. rear hatch area carpeting also nice, and car comes with factory hatch area shade to block sun. Original matching color enclosure bag for removable sunroof is included, as well as original, never used "space saver" tire and Porsche tire compressor kit. Everything works on car, such as horn/blinkers/flipup lights/ac/power seats/power sunroof/power seats/radio/gauges/locks, etc. Engine, 5spd transmission, clutch, brakes, power steering, and all mechanicals operate smoothly as they should, and are in excellent shape. Engine very recently had new belts/head/battery/oil cooler reseal/coolant flush and new coolant/oil &filter, etc, and is fully serviced. Wheels are factory 16" "phone dial" pattern. Tires have 4-5000 miles left in them, but will need to be replaced before/after that. This is a two adult owner car that has been well cared for, and it shows. Car looks and drives very straight and tight, with no noises or surprises. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. If you are in the market for a vintage Porsche 944, then you should really check out this factory twin cam 944S, which has 30 more horsepower over the standard 944, without all the turbo headaches.

2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base
Tue, 14 Jan 2014If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.
Jack Olsen built one Porsche to do it all
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Jack Olsen has built himself a lair called the 12-Gauge Garage, and inside that garage he built a lairy Porsche 911 nicknamed Black Beauty II. Although it looks like one of Stuttgart's models from the sixties or seventies, it is actually four decades of 911 gubbins from 1965 to 2000 thrown under one shell: the lightweight body is from 1972, the transaxle from 1977, the brakes from a 1986 Turbo, the engine from 1995, for example. It weighs 2,400 pounds and it's got 272 horsepower to get it going, but it's still a pure Porsche, Olsen saying, "If you stop thinking about what you're doing, it will remind you in very abrupt ways."
Olsen said the real point has been to have one car that does it all, so he does everything in his 911 from neighborhood runs to 7-11 to track racing - he loads the aero bits in the car and bolts them on trackside. And he says he'll never stop tweaking the suspension.
You can watch and hear the rest in Olsen's words in the video below.
2015 Porsche Cayman GTS
Thu, 29 May 2014The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.
