Up for auction is this "Exceptionally Rare" 1995 Porsche 928gts.  This was the final year of production for the Porsche 928gts.  Ferdinand Porsche (owner of the company) reportedly drove one of these cars.  The color is "Polar Silver."  It has a black leather interior.  It also has an electric sunroof.  There were only 77 1995 Porsche 928gts cars produced.  This car is Production #13 of 77.  It is Serial #73.  Only 9 of the 77 cars produced came in the color "Polar Silver."  Only 6 of those 9 cars came in with the Automatic Transmission.  It has 72871 miles.  The engine is a 345 HP, 5.4L 32 valve V8. This car is in "amazing" condition and has a lot of extras you won't find on any other Porsche 928gts.

This car comes with Chromed Techart wheels (Germany) & centercaps.  The front wheels are 8.5 x 18.  The rear wheels are 10.5 x 18.  They were both purchased and professionally chromed by "Wheel Enhancement" out of California.  The wheels have four (4) Michelin Pilot Sport wheels on them with less than 600 miles on them.  The front tires are 225/40 ZR18's.  The rears are 295/30 ZR18's.  The rear tires are very wide and completely underneath the body with no rub issues on the front or rear.  This gives the car a very powerful and menacing appearance.  It is a very cool look!  I get compliments on this car every time I take it out in public. 

The soundsystem includes a Alpine CDA9885 radio/CD player, and it is set up with an IPOD connecter hidden in the center console.  All 10 of the factory speakers have been upgraded to MB Quart (German) speakers, along with a MB Quart Subwoofer.  It comes with a Soundstream Van Gogh (VGA800.5) Amp that powers the system.  This is an 800 Watt 5 Channel Amplifier, that has a very low Total Harmonic Distortion Level of .02%.  This is the cleanest and the most crisp sound I have ever heard from a car stereo.  The stereo has a complete system of MB Quart Crossovers set up to get the right frequencies to the right speakers.  The MB Quart Subwoofer, MB Quart Crossovers, and the Soundstream Amp are all housed in the rear hatchback area in a professional cabinet that matches the black leather in the vehicle.  This professional cabinet includes a discrete switch for black light illumination if desired.  All of this was professional installed.  No corners were cut, because I wanted it perfect.  The car has also been equipped with a discrete (hidden) cable for connection of your radar detector to the visor.  

Both factory front seats have been replaced with Black Leather Recaro adjustable seats with lateral and thigh support.  They were just installed last year, and still look brand new.  The car has been driven less than 500 miles since they were installed.  They are "much" more comfortable than the original factory seats, and much sportier looking as well.  They are fully adjustable.  Recaro makes the best leather seats, and that is why I selected them for this car.  The entire leather interior of the car is in "beautiful condition." 

Mechanically, the car runs exceptionally well.  It is very smooth with powerful throttle response.  The "Timing Belt" (a critical element of these cars costing about $1000.00 parts + labor) was just replaced in June of last year.  It has less than 500 miles on this new timing belt.  The car battery was replaced in June of last year.  This car has been "very well" taken care of.  It has always been garaged, is rarely driven, and has been regularly maintained via service from Jones' Autowerks, Inc. (in San Antonio, TX).  I have receipts documenting maintenance.  I have owned this car since 2004.  This vehicle can be inspected prior to sale at the buyers discretion to verify the condition of the car.  The oil was changed less than 500 miles ago (Castrol GTX 20W50).  There are "no" oil leaks, which speaks to the excellent condition of this car mechanically, because most 928's do leak some oil.  The AC blows cold.

This is the nicest Porsche 928gts that I have ever seen, inside and out.  The Porsche 928 "gts" is a very rare car anyway, but the 1995 928gts is the rarest and most desirable of all.  It was the final year of production and represented the ultimate refinement of this model.  Again, there were only 77 of these cars built, and this one was #13.  I am selling this car because I am getting older and need to downsize my car collection.  This car is in superb driving condition, and it is ready to go and drive "now."  Maintenance is up to date.

Thanks for looking.  If you have personal questions, please let me know.  I am very proud of this car, and if you are looking for a Porsche 928gts, you won't find one better, as the pictures illustrate.  Pictures of the excellent black leather interior on this car will be posted shortly.

Porsche to decide soon on Bugatti future

Mon, Jun 21 2021

WEISSACH, Germany — Volkswagen will soon decide on the future of its luxury brand Bugatti, Oliver Blume, Volkswagen management board member and CEO of Porsche AG, said on Monday. Last week, Reuters reported that Bugatti was working on a strategic partnership with Rimac, which will likely result in a joint venture between Porsche and Rimac, with Porsche as a minority partner, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess said in March. "The future of Bugatti is an issue that will be decided on a group level," Porsche said in a statement, declining to comment further. Porsche boss Oliver Blume earlier this year said intense discussions on Bugatti's future were ongoing and that Rimac could play a role as the brands were a good technological fit, adding that a decision was expected in the first half of 2021.  

Porsche wants a better 'connected car' [UPDATE]

Fri, Mar 20 2015

UPDATE: In an earlier version of this story we mistakenly identified Joe Lawrence as the CEO of Porsche Cars North America; Lawrence is in fact the Chief Operating Officer, COO, of PCNA. The text has been changed to reflect this. Porsche is known for great engineering, but it's usually the type that leads to fantastic engines and sublime handling, rather than cutting-edge infotainment systems. The company wants to alter that balance in the future to put a greater emphasis on connectivity in its models. Porsche Cars North America COO Joe Lawrence outlined the brand's goals during a speech at the Bloomberg Innovation Forum in Atlanta, according to Automotive News. "Recognizing the phone is so ubiquitous in every sector, how do we integrate that into driving experience in a way that is safe and enjoyable?" he said. Lawrence suggested the company might be working with Google and Apple on future solutions. Even if Porsche is working on making more tech savvy models, don't expect the company to forget its roots. Brand boss Matthias Muller also broached connectivity during his recent speech at a conference and said the sports car business' customers didn't want "a smartphone on four wheels." He promised investments in research and development to come up with an answer. In the same speech, Muller strongly suggested fully electric Porsche models were on the way and also announced a seventh model line coming in the future. Lawrence reiterated the company's future, as well, in his address. "We will see further electrification of our product line," he said, according to Automotive News. Rumors of Porsche building a Tesla-fighter have been circulating as of late. The vehicle is possibly in the body of the smaller Panamera called the Pajun, and it could offer a 300-mile range with an electric motor at each axle kicking out a reported total of 600 horsepower.

Volkswagen may soon have remedy for more cheating diesels

Tue, May 10 2016

Nearly a half-million motorists who own Volkswagens equipped with 2.0-liter engines have known for a few weeks the company might wind up buying back their vehicles as part of a settlement surrounding the company's emissions cheating. But about 85,000 drivers who own similarly afflicted diesels with 3.0-liter engines have been stuck without a remedy. They may not be waiting much longer. Bloomberg reports that Volkswagen will soon propose a fix for vehicles, including those from Audi and Porsche, equipped with 3.0-liter engines that will include new software and a new catalytic converter for the vehicles. Discussions with federal regulators are ongoing, according to the news outlet. "We are cooperating with the regulatory agencies and working with them on an approved solution," says Audi spokesperson Mark Clothier. "Beyond that, we cannot comment on ongoing investigations." Regulators have alleged that the company's 3.0-liter engines contain "defeat devices," illegal software that allows a vehicle to detect when it's undergoing an emissions test and turn off pollution control during real-world driving. The defeat device allows these vehicles to increase emissions of nitrogen oxide up to nine times the Environmental Protection Agency's allowable threshold. Affected 3.0-liter vehicles include the 2014 Volkswagen Toureg, 2015 Porsche Cayenne and the 2016 Audi A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8, A8L and Q5. Volkswagen is slated to finalize its plans for buying back the afflicted 2.0-liter cars and potentially offer those motorists "substantial compensation" for their troubles by June 21, and it's possible that a formal announcement on the 3.0-liter vehicles would come at the same time.
