1994 Porsche 968 Cabrio Convertible 6-speed Manual, Cold Ac, Drive It Home! on 2040-cars
US $15,039.00
Year:1994
Mileage:73308
Location:
Marietta, Georgia, United States
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
- 6-Speed Manual Transmission
- Powered front seats
- Power windows, mirrors, and locks
- Rear Storage bin configuration (instead of seats, pictured) AND rear 2+2 seat configuration
Condition Notes
- The top of the driver's side door panel needs refinishing (pictured)
- 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
- There is road rash along the bottom of the front air dam (pictured)
- The front floormats have been covered with plastic covers since new, and are in very good condition.
- 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.)
- 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.
- The driver's seat bolster shows some expected wear from use, as does the shift knob. Both are pictured.
- The center console / armrest plastic "hinge" is broken.
- 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
- 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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- I won't accept PayPal payment other than the $200 deposit.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- I will not negotiate after the auction.
- I'm not interested in trades. This is a purchase-only auction.
- I do not provide financing.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.

Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.

While Porsche's designers can jokingly be accused of being some of the laziest in the industry due to the incremental changes to the 911's iconic design, no such charge can be leveled against the engineers and product planning folks. That's because it seems like each week arrives with news of a new variation of the marque's iconic rear-engined sports car. So, for this week, we've brought you images of what we think is the new 911 GTS Cabriolet, undergoing testing in a thawing winter wonderland.
Now, what is it that gives this 911 away, compared to standard convertible? Well, the big thing is the new offset, center-mounted exhausts. Borrowing a page from the last Volkswagen R32, these exhaust tips are unlike anything we've seen from Porsche. Only the GT3 wears center pipes, and unlike these spy photos, the twin pipes on the track-minded 911 are stacked neatly alongside each other. The other change spotted by our spies is the set of active-aerodynamic flaps in the front bumper, which can automatically channel air toward the brakes for increased cooling, or close off to reduce drag, as needed.
Those exhausts are a pretty big design detail, and so far as we can tell is the only differentiator between the other 911s in this car's posse. Our spies speculate that this could be a 911 Speedster, but point out that both the canvas roof and windshield remain unchanged - the rumored Speedster model would almost certainly feature a different roof assembly along with a steeply raked windshield.
