Liberty, South Carolina, United States
|
Please note! When I listed this car about a month ago.....the autocheck score was 63.......now it's much lower I suppose because I told the truth and listed the odometer as stopped working. FYI......Title is CLEAN and CLEAR! Here's from previous autocheck......take with grain of salt. :)
1986 Porsche 928S model, metallic gray paint with a burgundy interior. Hi.....this car is for sale by me the present owner for about the past year. Only selling it as I'm moving on to another more expensive sports car. The car is in very nice condition for it's age and one of the best 928S cars I've seen in a long time. I've personally owned 7 so far and this one is by far the best one I've owned. The paint is not perfect but is extremely nice for an almost 30 yr old car as is the interior. The dash is in good condition and no dash pad or covers are needed! All glass is good too and no cracks....but passengers window doesn't go down..(could be switch...I've just never looked into it). The only lights on the dash is the "antilock brakes"....the brakes work fine of course and I've never looked into this light as well. The A/C worked fine last summer but doesn't blow cold enough now....yet I'll have this charged (I had it converted over to R134 last summer) for the buyer at my expense! AM/FM cassette is installed along with all original speakers/amplifer and hooked up properly. Actually sounds very nice and loud without distortion, cracking or popping. May want to install a nice CD player if you like. The heater and fans work very nice for the winter too, as well as the sunroof, power seats, cruise control, heated rear glass, rear wipers, all lights work on the exterior of the car...bulb or two seems to be off on the night time interior lights (easy fix) if you wish. No rust I can see on the car either...not on edges or underneath. Car has new tires on the back as well as new/used later model Porsche Cup II wheels. Also installed are newer Porsche 964 mirrors on both sides....the are not hooked up but wires are there. I just never needed it since I was the only driver and set them for me. Parking brake works good too. Engine oil was just changed recently and timing belt tensioned by Porsche mechanic. Timing belt was replace twice as far as I can tell from the receipts included in the dash, and last time was around 153K miles or so. The power steering unit has a small leak but can't see any oil leaks. Also there is a small transmission leak that I have not investigated to date....but never have lost enough fluids to be concerned about...or even have to add. Transmission fluid is still FULL and I have not added any in a year! Oh...front shocks for hood are shot...needs replaced. Also.....the larger wheels/tires scrub just a tiny bit now and then on the rear of the car only. I take my 2 boys for drives around town in the car every week as we try to drive it at least a few miles every week. The car has been on long trips to Atlanta and North Carolina and has driven great. I' would not be afraid to drive this car across the country...it seems to be that dependable....yet please know you're buying a 28 year old car so please don't expect it to be new. Oh.....the drivers seat has a place where the leather has come unstitched...right where the seatbelt comes across......you can see it in the photo a bit. Rest of leather is really nice....and car has never been smoked in at all as far as I know. Just 3 owners! Cargo net in back and most tools are here as well as a spare tire and fire extinguisher in trunk. :) The car is sold AS-IS of course and due to the rising prices of 928's......this one is a great keeper!! I'm moving on to a different type sports car so that's the only reason I'm sell it. I've tried to think of everything possible to mention about the car.....but if you have any questions......please let me know. Thanks for looking and if you have ZERO or very LOW FEEDBACK.....you must write to me before bid or I reserve the right to cancel your bid. Winning bidder to pay $500.00 Deposit via paypal within 24 hours please to let me know you are serious. I will be happy to assist with your having the car picked up at YOUR expense if you're a bit too far away to consider coming to get it in-person. OH.........just had the rear brake pads changed and rotors turned about 1 month ago. Thanks for looking and have a blessed day! |

Singer 911 gorgeousness explored and experienced by Chris Harris
Thu, 17 Jan 2013Few things get us as cranked up as a Porsche 911. Generation after generation, this rear-engined oddity has exhilarated our senses, and the new 991 is the most capable iteration yet. Even so, there's a lot to be said for the older models, from their lighter weights and more modest dimensions to their air-cooled thrums.
That elemental vintage Porsche appeal hasn't been lost on Los Angeles-based Singer Vehicle Design, which has endeavored to take the best bits from every generation of 911 and combine them into one impossibly sexy rear-engined machine. Based on a 964 donor car, we knew that a lot of work would need to go into everything from the structure to the bodywork to realize the Singer's cohesive aesthetic and dynamic vision, but we didn't know just how much until we watched this Drive video featuring Chris Harris. The auto journo gets time with the 350-horsepower, Cosworth-motivated coupe on both mountain passes and at the track, but what could be the most interesting thing about the 27-minute-long video is his in-depth plant tour.
Check it out by scrolling below, but not before paging through our new Singer 911 gallery.

2014 Porsche 911 Targa
Tue, 15 Apr 2014I've watched the electro-hydraulic roof panel open and close about 73 times in the past hour, but its fascinatingly complicated operation still has me mesmerized. I've concluded that only a German automaker - Porsche, to be more specific - would go through the trouble of engineering a roof system that essentially lifts the entire greenhouse off a vehicle, rearranges its components like a sliding-tile puzzle, and then reassembles all of them seamlessly (sans roof panel) to accurately recreate one of its most famed bodystyles.
The 2014 Porsche 911 Targa is a near-perfect modern interpretation of the automaker's 1965 911 Targa, a semi-convertible bodystyle that represents nearly 13 percent of all 911 models sold since production started 50 years ago. While the early car's roof was purely manual in operation - that's the period-correct way of saying that the driver did all of the muscle work - today's Targa is a completely automated transformation that requires only that the driver hold down a cabin-mounted switch for a mere 19 seconds to let the captivating show run its course.
After studying the Targa's elaborate roof operation at its launch at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year, I was sufficiently intrigued. To that end, I traveled one-third of the way around the planet to southern Italy, hoping that the Mediterranean climate would reveal a bit more about the reintroduction of the automaker's iconic sports car.
