Porsche 928 S4 1991 Black/grey Automatic Beautiful. on 2040-cars
Bainbridge, Georgia, United States
|
First, let me say that this is a strong and beautiful car. The exterior is as new, with no issues. Check out the pictures. It runs like a watch and doesn’t burn or leak a drop of oil. I have had it for fourteen years and it has been my daily driver. I would not hesitate to get into it tomorrow and drive it across the country. And I am a fanatic who keeps the exterior amazingly beautiful for a 23 year old car. You will find no better example!
The problem occurred when I moved from Chicago and wasn’t aware of the negative affects of the strong south Georgia sun. The driver seat dried out and cracked as you can see from the pictures. The passenger seat shows signs of wear but is still in good shape. One of the rear seats also needs replacement, although the other rear seat is perfect. The dash is perfect with no signs of wear, shrinking or cracking. The top portion of the leather steering wheel needs to be re-stitched, but the leather is perfect. The body has no rust, no dings, bubbling paint or cosmetic issues, and is as new. The paint is amazing, shiny and looks better than when it came out of the show room. I still get compliments and head turns on it at the grocery store. The tires are Sumitomo HTR Z II's and have about 40% tread left. The wheels are the very expensive upgraded Porshe turbo 18" wheels for this year and are beautiful, with color Porsche crests. There are some minor electrical problems. The passenger side tail light assembly is intermittent, comes on sometimes and not other. The headlights open and work fine but the glass holding the H4 bulbs leaks moisture. They do not need replacement, just to be thoroughly dried out and then re-sealed. The windshield has a crack on the passenger side and the car does run very rough on cold starts until it warms up, then it purrs like a kitten. It fires up normally when warm. My dealer tells me it is a temperature sensor that needs to be replaced. But there are three sensors on the 928 and, since he doesn't know which it is and I live on SS, I do not want to pay the exhorbitant service charges from this Porsche dealer to track down the problem, so I put up with cold starting the car and waiting a few minutes for it to warm up. The car has a computer built into the dash that warns you of all faults. The computer works flawlessly but warns that the rear axle fluid needs to be changed (see pic). This warning is based on time of service rather than any flaw in the axle fluid. My dealer told me to ignore it. The power windows, power sun roof, power trunk opener, 8-way power seats with memory and rear seat A/C work flawlessly. The driver side power mirror and rear wiper need to be diagnosed as they do not work. This has been and still is a nice car, and a head turner. All service records will be included with the sale. With a little patience, some seat reupholstering and minor electrical work, it will provide many more years of service. The Carfax report is clear and clean. I am including the Garmin 4.5" GPS and the original Porsche 2000 page dealer Shop Repair Manual on CD with the car. I am 71 years old and simply don't have the patience to work on cars anymore. But my laziness can profit you greatly in this purchase. I can arrange shipping with a carrier that I trust and have used twice before, with perfect results (at your expense). This is a “no reserve” auction. I require a $500 deposit within 3 days of the auction closing and the balance at pickup, all in certified funds. |

Porsche Exclusive showcases custom-order 911 Turbo Cabrio
Sun, 06 Apr 2014Porsche is one of the most profitable automakers in the business. In fact, it's said to make about $23,000 on each car it sells, thanks in no small part to an options list that can send the sticker price accelerating quicker than one of its own sports cars. But there are always those for whom even the extensive option list won't be enough, and for just such customers, there is Porsche Exclusive.
The division in Zuffenhausen is tasked with creating even more individualized examples of Porsche vehicles, and it recently did up this 911 Turbo Cabriolet - which, at $160,700, is already one of the most expensive Porsches you can order this side of a 918 Spyder: more than any Boxster, Cayman, Macan or Cayenne, any Panamera other than a Turbo S or Executive - not to mention any other 911 short of a Turbo S.
This particular demo vehicle features a Slate Grey paint job and red interior decked out in more leather than an S&M dungeon - which, come to think of it, would probably be less financially painful than ordering up this car from Porsche Exclusive.
2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]
Thu, 22 May 2014You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.
Porsche considering X6-style Cayenne coupe
Mon, 05 May 2014It was practically unthinkable when Porsche introduced the Cayenne in 2002. An SUV... from Porsche? Purists balked, but customers flocked, and the Cayenne propelled the its holding company into such profitability that it practically took over the entire Volkswagen Group. It's now been twelve years since the original Cayenne arrived as the first production Porsche with more than two doors, and Zuffenhausen has since followed up with the Panamera, the Macan and the second-generation Cayenne. But it isn't about to stop there.
The latest intel coming in from overseas suggests that Porsche is in the advanced stages of designing a slant-back, five-door Cayenne coupe to take on the likes of the BMW X6 and upcoming Mercedes-Benz MLC. Though the business case (however solid BMW may have already demonstrated it to be) is still being considered, if approved it would join the upcoming third-generation Cayenne on the production line in Leipzig as early as 2018 - a year after the new Cayenne itself is expected to arrive.
The Cayenne coupe would share much with the more conventional MkIII Cayenne (and for that matter the next Audi Q7 and VW Touareg as well as the Lamborghini Urus and Bentley Falcon) but differentiate itself with a more stylish (if less practical) roofline and an altogether sportier attitude. Autocar reports that the design calls for tauter sheetmetal and sportier cabin inspired by the 918 Spyder. Pricing would be positioned a good 15-20 percent higher than the regular Cayenne, and the "coupe" version would likely be offered with most, if not all of the engines available in the conventional version - including gasoline, diesel, turbo and possibly even hybrid options ranging all the way up to the 550-horsepower Turbo S.
