RARE Colored 1993 Porsche 968 Cabriolet

WP0CA2964PS840178

This is a rare Porsche 968. I want to pass my Porsche 968 along with my passion onto the next enthusiast.  These cars are meant to be driven and for others to enjoy!  It’s fast and fun!

I’ve been slowly and steadily restoring it. Read on and see what has been done to this 20 plus year old car. It not perfect yet, but it’s a great start. The car is being sold as is. 

81,000 miles…metallic green color with a black interior.  3.0L VarioCam engine with a 4-speed Tiptronic transmission.  The 968's engine was the second-largest 4-cylinder ever offered in a production car up to that time. 

Previously owned by a family in Ft. Lauderdale, this Porsche 968 was part of the settlement. It had been in storage for a couple years when I purchased it. I had it professionally detailed. This is currently my daily driver. It not perfect yet, but it’s a great start.  It’s being sold at a very reasonable price. If I had it painted it would be up there with the other Porsche convertibles in price.

ENGINE AND DRIVE LINE…

The car has had major engine service preformed including the timing belt, water pump, and front engine oil seals along with new belt rollers, ($1500.00). Transmission service including the flex plate was performed (auto damper $ 1800.00).  AC conversion to new style 134 blows nice and cold. Heater works, as it should as well.

This car runs and drives great as a Porsche should…smooth, fast and nimble. The oil and other fluids have recently been changed.  I removed the old tires off the front and change them with new 17 inch Kumho ECSTA tires.

An aftermarket convertible top was installed in addition to doing some work with the frame.  The top opens and closed manually. I recently purchase the locking handles, which are included with the car,

INTERIOR…

The interior is in pretty good shape, however with most cars more than 20 years old the seats will need to be recovered due to regular wear and tear.

The original radio was replaced with an upgraded Alpine unit with blue tooth.

The car has beautiful black rugs and perfect door panels. The rear seats with storage options were added.

BODY…

The over all body is in excellent shape and pretty much ready for paint. There is a small dent on the lower left side right behind the left side door.  

The hood has a small dent on the upper left hand corner.  A little bit of bodywork will remedy that. And the hood and trunk are showing clear coat peeling.  I was planning to repaint the entire car. 

All lights are fully functional and working.

Fun facts…

This car is very rare. For those of you not familiar with the Porsche 968 it was an automobile sold by Porsche AG of Germany from 1991 to 1995, and marketed as the replacement for the Porsche 944. When production ceased in the 1995 model year, it represented the end of the line started almost 20 years earlier with the introduction of the Porsche 924.

There were only a limited amount of Porsche 968's built and shipped to the states. Approximately 2000 coupes and 2000 cabriolets were imported to the United States between 1991 and 995.This color combination is very rare.

Combined with the Tiptronic transmission...maybe 10 in total were manufactured. 

If you have any questions or want to see the car I can be reached at 561 414- 8477. Only serious buyers please!

Porsche Cayenne GTS, base models revealed ahead of LA

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Porsche unveiled a slew of refreshed Cayennes just a few months ago, but the base model (right) and high-performance GTS trim (above) were conspicuously absent from that list. There's no more reason to wonder about them, though, because the German brand plans to unveil both at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19.
Sitting below the Turbo in the lineup, the latest GTS still offers plenty of performance. It drops the previous version's naturally aspirated V8 in favor of a tuned version of the twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6 from the Cayenne S for some added oomph. The tweaks bring power up to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque, which is enough to rocket the model to 62 miles per hour in an estimated 5.2 seconds. The bump also equates to 20 hp and 39 lb-ft more than the current S and more importantly 20 hp and 62 lb-ft more than the previous GTS, according to Porsche.
In addition to the extra muscle, Porsche also decks the GTS out with some added features. It comes with a standard sport exhaust and Porsche Active Suspension Management system with an air suspension lets the chassis sit about three-quarters of an inch lower (20 millimeters). To bring things to a halt, the high-performance models also takes its brakes from the Turbo model.

This Porsche 356 family keeps it outlaw

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

Rod Emory was the founder of Emory Motorsports in Burbank, CA, and the scion to a family tradition of building "outlaw" Porsches that are almost as cool as the cars themselves. The lovingly modified Porsche 356s are lovely artifacts, and their story, along with the story of their builders, is pitch-perfect for the Petrolicious oeuvre of beloved classics.
Tune in for the history lesson, and then stick around for the car candy.

Audi RS7 vs. Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would you pick? [w/poll]

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

We live in a blessed time - a time when you can buy not just one, but two (or three, or four) monstrously powerful, blazingly fast four-doors that can't only keep up with modern supercars, but in some instances, will outperform them as well. Two of the finest are the Audi RS7 and the refreshed Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Motor Trend has been messing around with the both of them in this comparison video.
MT provides a comprehensive and entertaining look at the RS7 and the turbocharged Panamera as they go through a battery of tests, before getting tossed about on both the road and the track. Starring flip-flop aficionado Jonny Lieberman, it's a must-watch, whether you're in the market for one of the two super sedans or merely want to see the former Autoblog editor again.
After having a look at the video, register a vote for the car you'd park in your driveway in our poll. Hop below for the full video from the team at Motor Trend.
