For sale, by private owner: 1994 Porsche 968 Cabriolet with 6-Speed manual transmission, both rear seat configurations (2+2 / storage), and in  very good condition.

I'm the personal owner, and welcome calls and texts to (626) 219-0269.  We live in Marietta, GA, a suburb just north of Atlanta.

The 968 currently has 73,308 miles on it (will increase slightly due to weekend use and test drives) and is in very good running and driving  condition.  The title is clean, clear, and in my name.  I purchased it from the original owner and have the original window sticker as well as  many records since new (pictured).  I have two master keys as well as the original Porsche wheel lock keys, all owner's manuals, and all  accessories including all trunk tools, both top tools, tonneau cover (pictured), car cover, original donut spare, and original Porsche inflator  kit.  I do not have the original radio, but the aftermarket CD player sounds good.  The tires are in good shape with more than 50% tread.  There  are some areas of wear, outlined in the condition notes, below.  There are no warning lights or alerts and it has a passing emissions certificate  that I'll include to the new owner.  I do not have to top off fluids and it does not leak fluid on the ground.  The AC blows cold, the heat blows  hot, and the HVAC system vent positions and blower are responsive.  Yes, I would trust it in a drive across the country -- it is ready to go.

Please note in the pictures that I show only the storage bin configuration for rear seats.  The rear seat configuration is not shown, and is  included in parts (seats + seat belts).

Features
  1. 6-Speed Manual Transmission
  2. Powered front seats
  3. Power windows, mirrors, and locks
  4. Rear Storage bin configuration (instead of seats, pictured) AND rear 2+2 seat configuration
Condition Notes
  1. The top of the driver's side door panel needs refinishing (pictured)
  2. There is one dent, along the top crease of the front right fender above the front right wheelwell (pictured) -- the quote for dentless repair  is $500, quote is included with the car
  3. There is road rash along the bottom of the front air dam (pictured)
  4. The front floormats have been covered with plastic covers since new, and are in very good condition.
  5. The convertible top is currently in manual mode, which allows it to be put up and down without turning the car all the way off per Porsche  owner's manual procedure. (However, the power convertible top motors DO work.)
  6. The convertible top is newer than the car (originally grey, now black) and does not leak.  The rear window cleans up nicely and is mostly  clear.
  7. The driver's seat bolster shows some expected wear from use, as does the shift knob.  Both are pictured.
  8. The center console / armrest plastic "hinge" is broken.
  9. The rearward powered vertical adjustment of the driver's seat does not work; a new Porsche OEM switch is included to be installed at your  option.
Terms
  1. Communication is key. I'm flexible regarding these terms if contacted before the auction ends, and welcome calls or texts to my Google Voice  number, (626) 219-0269
  2. I am NOT a dealer.  There are NO FEES.  The price you bid is the price you pay.  I have the title in my name and in my hands, ready to hand  to you when you pay.
  3. The PayPal deposit is $200 and must be paid within 24 hours of the end of the auction.  The deposit amount is credited towards the total  purchase price.
  4. If you fail to send a $200 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it.
  5. I won't accept PayPal payment other than the $200 deposit.
  6. The balance of the purchase price (minus the $200 deposit) is due within 14 days UNLESS you we work out an alternative timeline BEFORE THE  AUCTION ENDS.  I'm flexible; the more communication the better.  I give two weeks because if you're traveling to come pick up the vehicle that  gives you a chance to get a cheap flight and schedule your trip time.
  7. If you pay a deposit but do not pay the balance within 14 days I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it.  I'm flexible;  the more communication the better.
  8. Please, no dealers or curbstoners.  I will not fill out a title with a purchase price of less than you paid.  I will be putting the buyer's  name and purchase date on the title.
  9. It is OK if you're using a bank loan to purchase the vehicle; however, have funding and preapproval in place BEFORE bidding or making an  offer.  Not being able to get a loan AFTER the auction ends is not a good excuse.
  10. If you're showing up in person we will be doing the sale transaction at my bank so that cash, check, or loan funds can be verified.  You will  need to be around during bank business hours so please plan your trip accordingly.
  11. I'm happy to help with meeting the shipper(s) if you plan to have it shipped.  However, you are responsible for setting up and paying for  shipping.  The balance must be paid in full before I release the vehicle to a shipper.
  12. I'm willing to deliver the car to you for $0.50 / mile for distances over 50 miles.  The balance must be paid in full before I begin my trip.
  13. I will not negotiate after the auction.
  14. I'm not interested in trades.  This is a purchase-only auction.
  15. I do not provide financing.
  16. I'll provide a standardized, non-notarized bill of sale from the state of Georgia.  If your state requires additional documentation, such as  a notarized bill of sale, please let me know and I'll provide it to you at no cost to you.
  17. The vehicle will come with a recent (within the last two weeks) passing emissions certificate.  If you're local and within the Georgia clean  air zones you can use this for registration.
  18. I welcome local inspections before the auction ends.  I live within convenient driving distance of dealers and independent mechanics.  I can  recommend one or you can find your own.  When searching use the cross streets of Lower Roswell Rd and Johnson Ferry Rd in Marietta, GA 30068.   You are responsible for any inspection costs to the local mechanic; however, there are no fees from me to drop the car off to have it checked  out.
  19. Do not ASSUME any details about the vehicle.  If something is not listed or you have a question, don't be shy.  I welcome calls and texts!
  20. All vehicles are subject to local sale.  Until a deposit is received from the winning bidder it is subject to local sale, thus voiding the  auction.  If a vehicle sells locally and eBay allows me to end the auction early, I'll do it.  Note that within the final 24 hours eBay does not  allow an auction to end early; however, until a deposit is received it is still subject to local sale and the auction is void if it sells locally  before a deposit is received.  Once a deposit is received it will no longer be for sale locally.
  21. If picking up the vehicle in person I'm happy to pick you up from the rental vehicle drop-off location, Atlanta airport, AmTrak station, or  bus station.  There is no fee from me to do this.  I'll also make sure the vehicle has a full tank of gas, tires are properly inflated, and it's  ready for a driving trip back.  In other words, I'll treat you like a person and how I'd expect to be treated if I were buying a vehicle on eBay.
  22. I'm not a dealer.  I can't provide a temporary license tag.  My state of GA tag will stay with me in GA and is not included with the vehicle.   Please do your research to stay legal when driving back home, especially if through or across state lines as each state may have different  rules.  I will provide you with the title and a bill of sale.

The pre-race and first in-race report from Le Mans

Sat, 22 Jun 2013

The 2013, 90th anniversary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans has begun, tragedy marking the opening laps with the death of Allan Simonsen. We're at the track now as a guest of Audi and plan to stay through the evening, and even we haven't been able to find out what caused the accident - the only video is from just after the incident, and beyond the statement from ACO there's been no more news. The Aston Martin in the LM GTE Am class and its all-Danish drivers had taken pole in its class and was one of the favorites to win.
The pre-race report will come first, and even thought we can't spoil the race because we're only five hours into it at the time of writing, we'll put all of the news at the end in case you don't even want the updates.
Or you can go straight to the high-res galleries above.

Porsche sells 919 Hybrid mockup for $100k on eBay

Mon, Jun 29 2015

Want to spend $100k on a new Porsche? Your local dealership will gladly sell you a new 911, Panamera, or Cayenne in the right trim level and spec, with all the right boxes ticked. But one buyer in Singapore recently spent that on a Porsche he (or she) couldn't even drive. The non-functional vehicle in question was a full-scale replica of the 919 Hybrid – just like the ones that just took a one-two finish at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Only this one was based on the 2014 spec that brought Porsche back to the forefront of endurance sportscar racing. Oh, and it has no running gear - electric or conventional. Porsche made a baker's dozen of these replicas to serve as showpieces and development models where a fully functional example wouldn't be needed. They're seldom sold, but Porsche Asia Pacific was given the green light to auction one off. Proceeds went towards charities helping disadvantaged children and the disabled. The fortunate collector ended up paying precisely $106,100 – that's in US dollars, not Singapore's – on eBay for the opportunity to put an all but completely authentic 919 Hybrid in his garage. Said collector won't be able to drive it, of course, but unless he was put through the kind of training that Mark Webber and Nico Hulkenberg have been, we doubt it'd be of much use anyway. And that's assuming Porsche were ever convinced to part with one of its high-tech, all conquering prototypes, which it likely won't for many years to come.

VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
