1987 944 Turbo w/ 61k miles, Clean Title, Guards Red / Black int. Good to Very Good Paint. Runs great - fantastic power (350hp) with no problems, accidents, etc. 3 years ago I spent $30,000 upgrading and replacing everything to the config below. Every hose, sensor, coil, rotor, timing belt, waterpump, plugs, wires, coolant tank, head gasket, turbo waterpump, waterpump relay, fan relays, and nearly every other part in the entire engine was replaced. Amsoil Oil and gear changes for the last 10 years that I have owned it. Given $40k+ into the car, the buy it now price is the lowest price and is extremely fair compared to similar cars in the market. I could potentially reduce the price by $800 if the set of Cup Wheels and New Tires are sold separately.
This car is a fantastic street / light track car with a reliable 350hp at 15psi. What a blast to drive.

Known Issues -
There are only a few minor issues worth noting other than normal wear and tear. There is a slight leak in oil pan gasket so the car gets a small quarter sized drip under the engine every few weeks. The driver side window switch doesn't always work consistently and should be replaced, the 968 hatch didn't line up perfectly so it is sticky when using the key or button to release the rear trunk, and there is a dent in driver side door (pictured).
Odometer Readings on VIN Check:
- There are a number of erroneous mileage entries provided by state and 3rd party inspection stations over the cars 26 year life. The car was purchased from the 2nd owner in 2003 and since then has only been driven 14,000 miles. When my mechanic rebuilt the top end of the engine, he attested that the cylinder walls were so clean that there is no possibility of mileage rollback or issues.
- Note that the report automatically rules out the erroneous mileage entries since they are either not possible or not from reputable sources. I am a 10 year PCA member and can show you in detail just how clean and new this car is for its age.

- Noah Indoor/Outdoor Car Cover

Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."
Porsche considering turbo for new GT3 RS [w/poll]
Tue, 03 Jun 2014Some automakers make one hardcore version of a sports car and are done with it. Or at least they make one at a time. Think Ferrari 458 Speciale, Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (or Super Trofeo Stradale or Squadra Corse) or Maserati GranTurismo MC. But not Porsche. It transforms the 911 into the hard-core GT3, the even harder-core GT3 RS, the you've-got-to-be-psychotic GT2 and the do-you-have-a-death-wish GT2 RS. The RS models take things to a further extreme, but what separates GT3 from GT2 models has traditionally been the use of foced induction: GT3s are naturally aspirated, while GT2s go turbo. But that could all be about to change.
According to the rumors making their round of the webosphere, Porsche is considering using a turbocharged engine for the next GT3 RS. The reason is that, as we all know, Porsche has already pushed the 3.8-liter flat-six in the existing GT3 about as far as it can go, and then some. And buyers expect not only a more bare-bones package with the GT3 RS, but also a bit of extra power.
Given that everything seems to be going turbo these days, the move might make some measure of sense, especially if Porsche wants to avoid with the GT3 RS the spontaneous combustion issues it faced with the GT3. But we can't help but wonder why, at that point, it wouldn't just skip the GT3 RS and go straight for the GT2.
Porsche digitally dissects its 918 Spyder for your viewing pleasure
Wed, 02 Oct 2013At this point, you'd think we'd know all there is to know about the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder - except what it's like to drive - but Porsche has released a new video giving us a more in-depth look at its new plug-in hypercar all the same. The animated video gives us numerous cutaway looks at the 918 Spyder while giving a visual demonstration of the car's four hybrid driving modes.
Though nowhere near as exciting as watching the 918 blast around the Nürburgring in record time, this new video is nonetheless both interesting and informative. Scroll down to watch the video yourself, and be sure to check out our live gallery of the production version of the car along with a stock gallery.
