First, let me say that this is a strong and beautiful car. The exterior is as new, with no issues. Check out the pictures. It runs like a watch and doesn’t burn or leak a drop of oil. I have had it for fourteen years and it has been my daily driver. I would not hesitate to get into it tomorrow and drive it across the country. And I am a fanatic who keeps the exterior amazingly beautiful for a 23 year old car. You will find no better example!
The problem occurred when I moved from Chicago and wasn’t aware of the negative affects of the strong south Georgia sun. The driver seat dried out and cracked as you can see from the pictures. The passenger seat shows signs of wear but is still in good shape. One of the rear seats also needs replacement, although the other rear seat is perfect. The dash is perfect with no signs of wear, shrinking or cracking. The top portion of the leather steering wheel needs to be re-stitched, but the leather is perfect. The body has no rust, no dings, bubbling paint or cosmetic issues, and is as new. The paint is amazing, shiny and looks better than when it came out of the show room. I still get compliments and head turns on it at the grocery store. The tires are Sumitomo HTR Z II's and have about 40% tread left. The wheels are the very expensive upgraded Porshe turbo 18" wheels for this year and are beautiful, with color Porsche crests. There are some minor electrical problems. The passenger side tail light assembly is intermittent, comes on sometimes and not other. The headlights open and work fine but the glass holding the H4 bulbs leaks moisture. They do not need replacement, just to be thoroughly dried out and then re-sealed. The windshield has a crack on the passenger side and the car does run very rough on cold starts until it warms up, then it purrs like a kitten. It fires up normally when warm. My dealer tells me it is a temperature sensor that needs to be replaced. But there are three sensors on the 928 and, since he doesn't know which it is and I live on SS, I do not want to pay the exhorbitant service charges from this Porsche dealer to track down the problem, so I put up with cold starting the car and waiting a few minutes for it to warm up. The car has a computer built into the dash that warns you of all faults. The computer works flawlessly but warns that the rear axle fluid needs to be changed (see pic). This warning is based on time of service rather than any flaw in the axle fluid. My dealer told me to ignore it. The power windows, power sun roof, power trunk opener, 8-way power seats with memory and rear seat A/C work flawlessly. The driver side power mirror and rear wiper need to be diagnosed as they do not work. This has been and still is a nice car, and a head turner. All service records will be included with the sale. With a little patience, some seat reupholstering and minor electrical work, it will provide many more years of service. The Carfax report is clear and clean. I am including the Garmin 4.5" GPS and the original Porsche 2000 page dealer Shop Repair Manual on CD with the car. I am 71 years old and simply don't have the patience to work on cars anymore. But my laziness can profit you greatly in this purchase. I can arrange shipping with a carrier that I trust and have used twice before, with perfect results (at your expense). This is a “no reserve” auction. I require a $500 deposit within 3 days of the auction closing and the balance at pickup, all in certified funds. |

First-ever Porsche headed home to company museum
Wed, 29 Jan 2014About 30 years before Ferdinand Porsche designed the Volkswagen Beetle, he created the Egger-Lohner electric vehicle, C.2 Phaeton model - or simply, the P1 - you see above. This was the first vehicle created by Porsche, and the car gets its nickname from the fact that he had stamped "P1" on many of the parts marking it as the first Porsche... sorry, 356 No. 1.
Now while you'd think that such an important piece of Porsche heritage has been in a museum or even the automaker's not-so-secret lair, it has actually been sitting at a warehouse for the last 112 years. Thankfully, that's all about to change as Porsche has recovered P1, and the car will soon be on "permanent display" at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
The P1 has a 3 horsepower motor capable of delivering a top speed of 21 miles per hour and a driving range of 49 miles, and, like many vehicles in Porsche's history, the motor is positioned at the rear of the vehicle. According to the press release posted below, the P1 finished first in a 24-mile electric vehicle race in Berlin in 1899, but it has been sitting since 1902.
Porsche 911 RSR stops just long enough to have its photo taken
Tue, 04 Mar 2014When it comes to Porsche and its rapidly escalating endurance racing program, all eyes may be on the new 919 Hybrid - and with good reason: that's the vehicle with which Porsche will be challenging the likes of Audi and Toyota for wins in the top-tier LMP1 class of the FIA World Endurance Championship and at Le Mans. But it's the 911 RSR that does and will continue to form the backbone of the factory's effort.
The 470-horsepower racing version of the road-going 911 took a one-two finish in its class at Le Mans last year, and also won its class at the Daytona 24 this past January as well. This year Porsche will field two of them in the WEC, another two in the United SportsCar Championship here in the US and will sell countless more to customer racing teams that will undoubtedly continue to rack up trophies in racing series around the world. This, then, might be a unique chance to see one standing still. Check it out in our gallery of live images above from the Geneva Motor Show.
Porsche trio seals endurance drivers' title
Mon, Nov 23 2015Fifth place. That's all it took for the Porsche team to seal the drivers' title in the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship. And that's just what they did this weekend in the 6 Hours of Bahrain. The leading lineup of Timo Bernhard, Brendon Hartley, and Mark Webber drove the #17 Porsche 919 Hybrid to the drivers' title to cap a dominant season for the Weissach team. Porsche already won the pinnacle race at Le Mans this past summer, and drove home the manufacturers' title at the penultimate round in Shanghai. The championship-winning trio of Bernhard, Hartley, and Webber won four out of the total eight rounds this season – including the races at the Nurburgring, Circuit of the Americas, Fuji, and Shanghai. That gave them 166 points in the final standings, besting the 161 achieved by the Audi team of Andre Lotterer, Marcel Fassler, and Benoit Treluyer, who won at Silverstone and Spa. In beating Audi to the top honors in the championship and at Le Mans, Porsche has completely locked its corporate cousins (and chief rivals) out of the winner's circle for the first time in years. Last season saw Toyota win both titles in the WEC, but Audi still won at Le Mans. Audi won both titles in the first two seasons of the championship, and the French endurance race all but three times in the past 16 years. The last time Audi was completely shut out was in 2009, when Peugeot won at Le Mans and Aston Martin took both titles in the associated Le Mans Series with its Lola-based LMP1 prototype. This latest achievement only adds to Porsche's unsurpassed sports car racing trophy cabinet. The German outfit won 12 manufacturers' and teams' titles (and another six drivers' titles) in the 1970s and 80s under the previous World Sportscar Championship. It has won at Le Mans a record 17 times, and another 18 each at Sebring and Daytona. Porsche also took the checkered flag at the Targa Florio 11 times, won the Monte Carlo rally four times, the Dakar twice, and with TAG and McLaren, won three drivers' titles, two constructors' titles, and 25 grands prix in Formula One.
