This is a really nice 968 with 91,000k. 


What is good. 

This car is a two family car. Original owner was a doctor in California. He passed away and left the car to his daughter and she sold it to my father IN 2003. The car has always been stored inside a garage. The body is very nice. I would give it a 9 out of 10. The only problems are small chips of a 21 year old car. Pictures show chips. The interior is even better. The seats are black leather and could not be better for the age. I removed the original tape deck and installed a touch screen with navigation. I still have the original parts if you like it original. The engine runs perfect and is strong. This car is an automatic. The tires are 85%. This is a great 1992 Porsche 968! You will have a hard time finding a car 21 years old that is this nice. NADA guide says this car is worth $9200 - $17,300. Look it up. I think it is a 8 or 9 out of 10. I'm starting the bidding at $8,900 with a reserve at $9000. I'm only selling this Porsche because I have a 3 car storage space and I have 4 cars at the moment. I just bought a new toy. Someone is going to get a good deal on a nice car. $500 down within 24 hours the end of bidding. I will be happy to assist with shipping for an out of town buyer. Shipping or pick up is at the cost of the buyer.
 
What is bad. 

The car has small chips in the paint. I show chips in the pictures. There are only a few. The "Check Break Pads" light has been on for years even though the pads have been changed. Im not sure if the light is broken or if the light was not reset when fixed. The drivers side interior door has a small rip in the leather. Maybe one inch or less and has a glue patch. Its not getting worse. The biggest problem with the car in my opinion is that the drivers side seat, electric seat does not move back. The seats have 6 way controls and only the seat "back" doesn't work. This was never an issue for me because I was the only person who drove it and I never had to move it. I know the motor to move the seat back still works because its the same motor that move it forward and that works fine.Im sure its just the wiring but I haven't messed with it. That is really all I can think of. 

This has been a great car in the 10 years or so we have had it in our family. It would make a good Sunday car for cruising or an everyday driver.

Our love of SUVs is killing people in the streets

Tue, Jul 17 2018

Americans are fond of supersized fast-food meals and colossal convenience-store fountain drinks, even though they're clearly bad for our health and U.S. adults keep getting fatter. We also like large vehicles, and our love affair with SUVs is killing people in the streets. According to a recent investigation by the Detroit Free Press/USA Today, the increase in SUV sales over the past several years coincides with a sharp rise in pedestrian deaths in the U.S. — up 46 percent since 2009, with nearly 6,000 people killed in 2016 alone. With SUV sales surpassing sedans in 2014 and pickups and SUVs currently accounting for 60 percent of new vehicle sales, it's no wonder Ford announced in April plans to cease U.S. sales of almost all passenger cars. And this followed Fiat Chrysler's move to virtually an all-truck, -SUV and -crossover lineup. While the Freep/USA Today investigation found that the simultaneous surge in SUV sales and pedestrian deaths comes down to vehicle size, it also points to a lack of action on the part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), even though it knew of the dangers SUVs pose to pedestrians. Also blamed are automakers dragging their feet on implementing active safety features. Using federal accident data, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) determined that there was an 81 percent increase in single-vehicle pedestrian fatalities involving SUVs between 2009 and 2016. Freep/USA Today's analysis of the same data by counting vehicles that struck and killed pedestrians instead of the number of people killed showed a 69 percent increase in SUV involvement. As far back as 2001, researchers at Rowan University forecasted a rise in pedestrian deaths as Americans began switching to SUVs. "In the United States, passenger vehicles are shifting from a fleet populated primarily by cars to a fleet dominated by light trucks and vans," the researchers wrote, with light trucks comprising SUVs.

Porsche Panamera Turbo sets new Nurburgring record

Wed, Jun 29 2016

The new Porsche Panamera appears to be the complete package. The new four-door sedan is finally good looking, has copious amounts of power, and has even become the fastest sedan around the Nurburgring. Porsche set a time of 7 minutes, 38 seconds in a Panamera Turbo, which just barely bests the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio by a second. The new Panamera Turbo features a 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8 that puts out 550 hp and 567 pound-feet of torque. That's enough to get the sedan from zero to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds (with the optional Sport Chrono package) on the way a top speed of 180 mph. The new record proves that the Panamera Turbo is quick around a grueling race track, as well. The Panamera Turbo's time around the Nurburgring puts it in the same breath as the Ferrari 458 Italia and Lexus LFA, while being an impressive 14 seconds faster than the previous Panamera.

Will the Mission E be the world's first must-have EV?

Fri, Feb 5 2016

The Porsche Mission E concept was recently green-lit for production and has a tentative production date just before the end of the decade. With the recent onslaught of all-electric technology, the question remains: Which automaker will release the first must have all-electric EV? Tesla has clearly gained experience in testing the worldwide appetite for luxury, six-figure EVs, having sold its 100,000th vehicle in just three years and six months. But it remains to be seen if automakers can truly manufacture the ultimate green driving machine. Audi has shown its R8 e-tron but acknowledged that it will be produced in only limited quantities. On the other end of the spectrum, vehicles like the Chevy Bolt and BMW i8 are being produced for mass consumption, but will they satisfy the enthusiast who is looking for more than a commuter car? Tesla's Model S has certainly raised eyebrows and collected accolades with "ludicrous" level straight-line performance, but how well will the vehicle stand up to long-term ownership for enthusiasts? Porsche has dismissed any notions of autonomous driving in its vehicles, suggesting that it will try to stay close to its high-performance roots. This would seem to suggest that despite all the forecasted performance cred of the Mission E – 582 horsepower, 0–60 in 3.5 seconds, and a 310-mile range – potential buyers may not be getting the latest and greatest in gee-whiz-bang autonomous technology. And while Porsche has offered that future iterations of its 911 and 718 may in fact use hybrid-assisted drivetrains, the execution of a true, mass-produced, all-electric sports sedan remains to be seen. One thing is for certain, unlike start-ups like Tesla, the larger, more established manufacturers have larger budgets and more time to invest in R&D. Consumers have raised expectations from the more mature automakers in terms of reliability and the overall finish of their products. The arrival of the Mission E production car may introduce us to electric sports sedans that emphasize performance over efficiency while still eliminating its carbon footprint.
