1988 Porsche 944 on 2040-cars

Year:1988 Mileage:177218

Clinton, South Carolina, United States

944 5-speed sunroof car has been sitting in my garage for years. My intent to make a track car out of it since the body and structure was so nice, rust free and appears that the car has the original paint on all the panels too, no signs of damage or ever being wrecked from my inspections. So, I have come to the realization it's time to make space and move it along. 

The car does not currently run. Before listing it, I hooked a battery and jumper cables to the leads, and it will start and run for a short period of time off of starting fluid being sprayed in the throttle body. I suspect the injectors are stuck from sitting or fuel pump not working is my guess. I have not had the car professionally looked at and is just the way I bought it. Most everything electrical seems to work, lights go up and down, windows work, power seat adj work, fan blows, dash lights come on, etc. wipers do not work and windshield is cracked. Brake pedal is solid, bakes work as well as emergency brake, clutch master leaks fluid somewhere around the master or line, not sure but it won't hold fluid for any length of time, I have not tried to bleed clutch either. Gears shift and will engage motor/drivetrain in all gears but that is the extent of my testing. SC DOT bill of sale only, no title. Car is for sale locally in South Carolina so auction is subject to end at any time. Pickup or shipping is at the buyers responsibility, delivery locally or in the upstate of SC may be possible for a fee. Feel to call with any questions, Doug   864 923-1302

Porsche to develop new line of engines for next Panamera

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

When the second generation of the four-door Porsche Panamera launches, it will likely be riding a new platform, complete with an all-new family of V6 and V8 engines, according to a report coming out of the UK.
Autocar reports that the so-called MSB platform will likely underpin the Panamera, and it could be shared with Bentley, provided the Volkswagen-owned, British-built brand commits to the architecture. As for the engines, it's reported that they'll have a sportier character than the V6s and V8s being built for Volkswagen and Audi's vehicles.
"Porsche will have its own new V8 that will be common to the new MSB platform," Porsche's chief engineer, Wolfgang Hatz, said. "It's a family for the next 10 years of cars." Whether the V8 and V6 will be used outside of the Panamera line, though, remains unclear. There's also no mention of what place turbocharging would have with the new engines.

24 Hours of Le Mans an on-and-off love affair

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

There was little usual about this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans - intermittent rain in the weeks before the race meant cars didn't get on track as much as they wanted, and intermittent rain during the race meant cars went off track a lot more than they wanted. The race started with a wet track, and one of the records broken because of the random downpours was the number of times the safety car led the field - 11 times this year - although the record of two hours and 53 minutes of lapping behind the safety car, set in 2011, was not eclipsed.
None of that served to dampen the action. With little more than an hour left in the race there were cars still only a few seconds apart fighting for position, leads still changing because of pit stops and everyone drafting anyone they could.
Things didn't go the usual way up front, either - well, not exactly...

Porsche celebrates 5M Facebook fans with crowdsourced one-off 911

Mon, 05 Aug 2013

Porsche's Facebook fan base appears to be accelerating as quickly as the cars it builds. The German automaker has just unveiled a special 911 Carrera 4S designed with crowdsourced input as a way to thank its five million Facebook fans.
The 911 features special Aquablaumetallic paint from Porsche Exclusive, contrasting 20-inch white Carrera S wheels and pinstriping, along with an aero package including a fixed rear wing. Inside, there are unique backlit sill plates and the obligatory dashboard engraving that says "Personally Built by 5 Million Porsche Fans."
As a way to turn at least one virtual thumbs up into its more meaningful physical-world equivalent, Porsche is holding a contest to win the chance to drive the car at Britain's Silverstone racetrack - and bring a friend - and nine lucky runners-up will win 1:43-scale models of the 911.
