You are viewing a mint 1998 Carrera Cabriolet with 84K miles on it.  Superbly maintained and owned by a Porsche enthusiast.  You will not find a cleaner 993 anywhere.

This car has been adult driven and always garaged.  This is the ultra desirable and rare 993 with tiptronic---very few of these were made and they rarely come up for sale.  This 1998 is the last year Porsche made an air-cooled motor. 

Everything is in good working order and the AC blows ice cold and was just serviced.  The top in the picture is black but, it is going into the shop next week to get a brand new fresh grey top.  I want to make sure this car is like new the for new owner.  I also just had a complete engine service (6K) done less than 100 miles ago.  I have receipts and your welcome to speak with the shop (Black Forest) in San Diego.  The service included:

*  Transmission Service---new fluids
*  AC Service
*  All new belts (3)
*  Fresh oil change
*  New Fuel Filter
*  New Plug Wires ---The wires were 371 plus labor and we had to drop the motor for this another 1700 dollars
*  New Plugs
*  New Cabin Filters
*  4 Wheel Alignment (317)
*  New Distributor Caps and Rotors
*  New Cabriolet Control Unit---with a 2 year warranty
*  New trunk shocks
*  New valve cover gaskets

I just spent 6K on the motor and I have the receipts to prove it.  This motor is very fresh and tight and will be worry free for another 80K miles.  This car has a fresh motor and will have a brand new top!!!  I spent all that money on the 911 because I thought I would own this car forever but, last week my wife drove a Cayenne and wanted it---I told her she could not have 2 Porsche's and I am now selling her 911.

The car has a multi-disc unit in the trunk with the spare tire, compressor, toolkit and jack.  The rims and tires pictured in the photo do NOT come with the car.  I am including the original Turbo 911 rims.  If you are interested in purchasing the rims and tires separately please give me a call.

Bidder is responsible for shipping.  Upon end of auction successful bidder will submit a NON-refundable 1,000 dollar deposit.  500 to be paid immediately and the remainder of the deposit to be paid within 24 hours.  The remaining balance of the winning bid to be paid within 3 days.

Please call me prior to hitting buy it now as I am selling this locally and reserve the right to end the auction early.  I ask to call me  because I unfortunately have 2 negative feedbacks because I had a kids backpack and motorcycle tank bag that was listed on Ebay and I sold them at a garage sale the same day people bid for them on Ebay.  I explained to them I sold them and they threw a fit and gave me negative feedback.  Please see my feedback.

Porsche suspends ties with Maria Sharapova after drug test

Tue, Mar 8 2016

Porsche has reportedly suspended ties with Maria Sharapova after the Russian tennis star failed a drug test. The German automaker stopped short of terminating its relationship with the athlete altogether as it awaits the results of a deeper investigation. The issue emerged at the Australian Open, where Sharapova reportedly tested positive for use of a drug called meldonium. Manufactured in Latvia and prescribed in many former Soviet Bloc countries, meldonium is used to treat heart conditions and improve cardiac circulation. It is not approved by the FDA for use in the United States, and the World Anti-Doping Agency added it to its list of prohibited substances at the start of this year. Sharapova admitted that she's been taking the medication for ten years now but that she did not keep up to date on the WADA's list. Since it is considered a prohibited substance, she's been excluded from participating in the Australian Open this year, and suspended from competition as of March 12. She was also scheduled to take part in the Porsche Grand Prix, a tennis event sponsored by the carmaker in Stuttgart next month which she will now apparently have to miss. One of the top-rated female tennis players in the world, Sharapova has served as a brand ambassador for Porsche since 2013. Other sponsors including TAG Heuer and Nike have also reportedly suspended their relationships with the athlete pending further investigation by the International Tennis Federation. Related Video:

Best and worst car brands of 2022 according to Consumer Reports

Thu, Feb 17 2022

It's that time again, Consumer Reports this morning lifting the curtain on its 2022 Annual Car Brand rankings and its 10 Top Picks in the car, crossover, and truck category. Drumroll, please: This year, Subaru climbs two spots to claim the winner's circle, having come third the last two years. Last year, Mazda climbed three spots from 2020 to take the crown. This year, Mazda slipped to second, BMW taking the last spot on the podium, also a one-spot drop from 2021. Six automakers in the top 10 hailed from Japan, which is one more than last year, and five luxury makers occupied the top 10, which is two more than last year. And South Korean representation didn't crack the top this year, after Hyundai managed tenth last year. The seven makes after BMW are: Honda, Lexus, Audi, Porsche, Mini, Toyota, and Infiniti.  The magazine and testing concern says its Brand Report Card "[reveals] which automakers are producing the most well-performing, safe, and reliable vehicles based on CR’s independent testing and member surveys," and that "Brands that rise to the top tend to have the most consistent performance across their model lineups." The domestics also took steps back among the 32 OEMs ranked on the 2022 card. Chrysler and Buick were the domestic carmakers who made last year's top 10 in eighth and ninth, respectively. This year, Buick dropped to eleventh, Chrysler to thirteenth. Dodge went from fourteenth to sixteenth. CR continues to ding Tesla's yoke steerer, the not-exactly-natural handhold responsible for the electric carmaker going from sixteenth last year to twenty-third this year.

Cars selling highest above MSRP and lowest below MSRP

Wed, Feb 14 2024

Automakers have returned to offering incentives and promoting new vehicles after a few years of tight inventory and elevated prices. Despite that, prices are still higher than they should be, as a new iSeeCars study found that the average new car is priced above MSRP, though they’re slightly less painful than they were a year ago. iSeeCars found that the average new car price has been marked up to 7.2 percent above MSRP, down from 8.9 percent a year ago. Interestingly, the five most overpriced cars came from two premium brands, while four of the five priced the lowest below MSRP were EVs. New cars selling highest above MSRP Mini Hardtop: 25.5% above MSRP Porsche Taycan Sedan: 23.1% Porsche Cayenne: 21.9% Porsche Macan: 21.3% Porsche Taycan Wagon: 20.9% Cadillac CT5-V: 20% Porsche 718 Boxster: 19.9% Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid: 19.4% BMW X3 M: 19.4% Cadillac CT4-V: 19.3% Porsche, Mini, and Genesis were the three most overpriced brands overall, with Buick, Acura, and Infiniti landing as the lowest-priced brands. Electric vehicles dominated the list of the 10 most-discounted vehicles: New cars selling lowest below MSRP Hyundai Kona Electric: -4.6% VW ID.4: -3.6% Ford F-150 Hybrid: -3.3% Kia EV6: -2.5% Hyundai Ioniq 6: -2.4% Nissan Maxima: -2.2% Chrysler Pacifica PHEV: -2% Nissan Ariya: -1.9% Hyundai Ioniq 5: -1.9% VW Arteon: -1.8% Those numbers align with what we saw in the market last year, as EV sales grew, but far slower than many had hoped. iSeeCars executive analyst Karl Brauer said. (For a sense of that, you can look back at our coverage of most marked-up cars and most discounted cars from 2023.) “The market appears to have reached a saturation point for electric vehicles," Brauer said, "with both prices and sales struggling compared to a year ago. The high cost of full-size trucks and SUVs, along with the cost of fueling them in the face of inflation and reduced consumer spending power, has dampened demand for these notoriously pricey vehicles.”
