CONDITION:
I daily drove the Porsche for two summers while fixing it up, always storing it in the winter. It runs and drives great - making a ton of power, needing nothing. It has been in storage for the last two years with little driving. It has been repainted once in original Guards Red a few years ago and shows very well. There are little things about the car that I would replace or fix if I kept the car, mostly interior trim parts (ignition trim ring, drivers door trim, a switch, etc.), but they don’t affect the running/performance of the car. The seats are replacements; I have the stock seats that bolt back in (seat bottoms are worn but have Porsche seat covers) and will include them with the car.
Offered at NO RESERVE, AS-IS, NO WARRANTY. Ask all questions and inspect the Porsche prior to bidding. Buyer to arrange for shipping, taxes, State paperwork, etc. Clear title will be signed over upon collection of funds. The Porsche is ready to go. A $500 deposit is due via Paypal at close of auction with final payment due within one week.

New details mooted about Porsche's '988' Ferrari rival
Tue, 08 Jul 2014We could be on the verge of a big expansion at everyone's favorite rear-engined German sports car manufacturer. Porsche is allegedly preparing a four-car assault that will be led by a proper challenger to the Ferrari 458 Italia (sorry 911).
Code-named "988," the new model will reportedly feature a mid-engined layout and, get this: a flat-8. Autocar, which has the story, expects that engine to displace about 4.0 liters, while the car itself will draw styling inspiration from the 918 Spyder. 600 ponies and over 400 super-accessible pound-feet of torque should be on tap with the new mill.
Joining the 988's supposed eight-cylinder is a new family of four- and six-cylinder boxer engines that Autocar claims will have a focus on power density and fuel economy. These new mills will be available in naturally aspirated, turbocharged and hybrid forms.
