1990 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet (convertible) on 2040-cars
Amissville, Virginia, United States
|
A fine example of a classic design. This car has been a project of mine and has had some well sorted upgrades done so far. Black on Black on Black Cabriolet with a well documented service history. Car has 85,000 miles. All belts, rollers, and bearings done in the last 10,000 miles. The paint is not new but is in very good condition. No rust anywhere. New top and toneau cover with new cables installed. The interior is immaculate. Seats were recovered. The dash is perfect. Koni rear coilovers installed. Koni front inserts go with the car. I just haven't installed them yet. Wheels are BSA. 18X8 front and 18X10 rear. Falken tires with less than 5,000 miles. 245/50/18 front and 295/35/18 rear. Everything works. However, the clock in the dash gummed up this month. I have ordered a splitter and am waiting for it to arrive. They are made to order so, I am waiting my turn. Drivetrain is solid and this would do as a daily driver with no worries. I bought it with the intention of installing a LS1 but it is just too nice to not leave original. So, I am going a different direction. If I were to keep it, I would replace the clock, the windshield header is warped. It doesn't interfere with the function of the top or anything else, I'm just picky and would replace it. Also, the tripometer works but will not reset to 000. I would install the splitter and install the front Koni's. Also, I had to roll the rear fender lips to make room for the 295's. The paint cracked and should be redone. The rear fenders have excellent lines for taping off and repainting with out having to paint the whole car. I was quoted $500 to have it done. The A/C has been converted to 134a and works. Electric windows work. Electric seats work. This car will make an excellent DD or a good project to pick up and continue for an enthusiast. I still have the stock wheels with a new set of Cooper tires if you are looking to go original. I can put them back on and adjust the price accordingly. Thanks for looking! $250.00 deposit by paypal due upon winning the auction or if you buy it now. Remaining funds do at pick up. |

Porsche board members facing another ˆ1.8B lawsuit over VW takeover bid
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Back in 2008, Porsche got the bright idea that it could take over Volkswagen in the midst of the worst economic slump since the Great Depression. Ignoring that this was a catastrophic move for the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer that that eventually resulted in it nearly going bankrupt and eventually being taken over by the same company it sought to control, the aftermath has left Porsche Chairman Wolfgang Porsche and board member Ferdinand Piëch in the crosshairs of seven hedge funds that lost out during the takeover and are now seeking €1.8 billion - $2.43 billion US - in damages from the two execs, according to the BBC.
See, investors bet on Volkswagen's share price going down, partially because Porsche said it wasn't going to attempt a takeover. But Porsche was attempting to take over VW, having bought up nearly 75-percent of VW's publicly traded shares. When word broke that Porsche owned nearly three-quarters of VW (which indicated an imminent takeover attempt), rather than go down like the hedge funds bet it would, VW's share price skyrocketed to over 1,000 euros per share, according to Reuters.
Naturally, when you bet that a company's share price is going to drop and it in turn (temporarily) becomes the world's most valuable company, you lose a lot of money, unless you're able to buy up shares before prices jump too much. This led to a squeeze on the stock, which the hedge funds accuse Porsche and Piëch (who are both members of the Porsche family and supervisory board) of organizing.
Porsche 911 to drop naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine
Thu, May 28 2015Rumors that the next-generation Porsche 911 will be completely divorced from naturally aspirated engines are picking up steam. Now, Road & Track is reporting that not only will the next 911, code-named 992, have a turbo-only engine lineup, but that the base Carrera and Carrera S will add the force-induced flat sixes as part of a facelift later this year. R&T only cites "sources familiar with the project," which claim that turbocharged flat-sixes will be at the core of the 992's engine range, alongside a plug-in-hybrid model. A four-cylinder 911 remains unlikely. What's most surprising, though, is how soon Porsche will introduce a turbocharged base-car lineup. Road & Track claims the blown flat-sixes will be added as part of a facelift coming before year's end. Perhaps unwilling to risk the further ire of purists, the current car's seven-speed manual transmission will continue to be sold, alongside the company's excellent PDK automatic transmission. As for when this facelift will happen, the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show in September seems like the most obvious date.

All the crazy stuff we saw at McCall's Motorworks Revival
Thu, Aug 18 2016Every year, Gordon McCall puts on a lavish event packed with rare cars and planes (and the type of people that can afford rare cars and planes). And every year, more ridiculous stuff shows up. It's the good kind of machine overload. It's likely the only place in the world where you'll see a line of BMW 3.0s next to some Paganis next to a Porsche 911 by Singer Design next to a Ferrari salt racer next to a custom Olds Riviera next to the latest from Koenigsegg next to he coolest stuff Shelby ever made next to a hangar filled with McLarens, including a few P1 GTRs. And then all of that is surrounded by private jets, fighters, and planes that could have flown in directly from WWII. In a word, it's insane. Walk through the gallery above to get a taste for what was there this year for the event's 25th anniversary.
