1982 Porsche 930 Canadian Car Euro Spec Excellent Driver Well Maintained on 2040-cars
Year:1982
Mileage:166400
Location:
Upper Tantallon, Nova Scotia, Canada

1982 Porsche 930 (911 Turbo) Vin WP0JA0935CS050089 Mileage is in kilometres In 1982 eighty nine 930s were imported to Canada, so this
particular car was the last one for that year.
They made less than a thousand in 1982 overall, and the Canadian cars
are Euro spec – 300 hp with a nice stance.
Paint to sample, limited slip, sports seats. Car was sold new in Toronto, Ontario. Particulars on the first two owners are in
the original owner’s manual and service booklet, which are in new condition. The third owner purchased the car in April of
1988 at 59.3K kms, and I have the invoice.
The original build sheet and service records from 1982 to 1988 are not
available, but the third owner maintained good records and plenty of regular
maintenance was performed, with most of the maintenance performed by Riegel
Tuning in Calgary, Alberta. In 1996 the
car was inspected by the owner’s insurance company and was showing 129.4k
Kms. There is an invoice on file dated
2000 for a windows out repaint - $6300 at 131K kms. The condition of the paint and panels is excellent,
with the usual stone chips on the hood and mirrors after 35K kms of
travel. I spoke with the owner who paid
for this work, and he has advised that it was done to spruce the car up for
sale, and not to repair damage or rust. There
are absolutely no rust, dents, dings. The
underside is solid with original undercoating and no corrosion. In 2002 the car changed hands at 136.3K kms and in April,
2005 an engine out service and reseal was performed at 141,416 kms – cost was
$6,892.51. Among the most significant
service items were a new clutch, new flywheel, and upgraded chain tensioner
kit. Compression was 130 in all 6
cylinders, and leakdown results were 3% for 1, 2, 3, 2% for 4, 5% for 5,
6. In 2006 the car was sold to the fellow I purchased it
from, and there are spotty records for the occasional service and minor
maintenance. Brake master and alternator
were replaced. When he had it appraised
in 2011 there were 155K Kms on the odometer, which was the mileage when I took
delivery in March, 2012. I interviewed 3 of the previous 5 owners who had owned
the car since 1988. This 930 has been
stored in garages during winters. The
car has an expensive Alpine period correct stereo system that includes a multiple
CD changer, amplifier, digital receiver, and 4 speakers. All
glass is perfect, and the front windshield was recently replaced. I have a detailed summary of the service I’ve performed
since taking possession (receipts are available) and have been fastidious about
the basic maintenance (new rear brake rotors and pads, fuel injectors, plugs
and wires, adjust valves, change all filters, cap, rotor, O rings, wheel
alignment, new tires, adjust clutch, etc….).
I keep the car in a heated garage
and have not driven it in the rain or on the track. All electrical and mechanical items work as
they should except for the power antenna.
The AC hasn’t been charged since before the last owner bought it in
2006, but all parts are intact. This car runs strong and quite remarkably, does not leak
one drop of oil. I may add up to 200 mls
between oil changes (I change the oil every 1500 miles), which for a 166K km
turbo motor (100K miles) is noteworthy – the motor does not smoke, even on
boost. If it sits for a week + there may
be a puff of smoke on start up. The car
pulls well through the entire rev range, the 4 speed shifts as it should with
no binding or grinding. I note in the
service history that the syncros have received work in the past. No mods – this car is bone stock except for
the stereo. The interior is in excellent condition for the age and
miles, although the bolster in the driver seat is getting tired. It is not torn, but the piping is frayed and
faded. Carpets are excellent. Two of the wheels have a smearing of minor
curb rash, and the tires are almost new.
Interior has a rich leather smell. The car includes the original tool kit and air pump, and
the spare. Includes Porsche 930 service manual on CD, as
well as all records, owners, and warranty manuals. I would not hesitate to drive this across
the Continent, it has been that reliable.
Don’t let the mileage dissuade you – this car has been driven an average
of 5K Kms per year over it’s life, and has been well maintained. I reserve the right to end the auction early. For the successful bidder a $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of auction closing. Payment is full is due within 5 days of closing. Local pickup preferred, and I will work with the buyer to arrange for transportation or shipping at the buyer's expense. |

Porsche planning more plug-ins
Mon, Jan 5 2015Which automaker offers the most plug-in models in the industry? The answer may surprise you, because it's not Toyota, it's not Renault or Nissan or any other automaker that might spring to mind. The answer is Porsche, which already offers the Cayenne and Panamera in plug-in hybrid spec in addition to the 918 Spyder. And it could offer more in the near future. Speaking with Automotive News, Porsche's global sales and marketing chief Bernhard Maier spoke of the importance of plug-in range-extended models to the company's future plans. The 55-year-old executive, who endeavors to make his 56-mile round-trip daily commute from home to the company's headquarters in Stuttgart entirely emissions free, indicated that his company only plans to offer more plug-in models. Previous reports indicated that E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera wouldn't fit in the Macan, and that no such plans were in store for the Boxster, Cayman or 911. But when asked what Porsche had in store for the future, Maier replied: "We have a lot of ideas, but we have not approved them for production yet. The 918 Spyder shows that Porsche has the capability to produce very convincing hybrid sports cars." While clearly guarded, Maier's answer points to a future of more plug-in hybrid models from the storied German marque. All that remains to be seen is whether that will come in the form of a Boxster, Cayman, Macan or another new model altogether, like the rumored mini-Panamera dubbed Pajun or a mid-engined V8 supercar.
2014 Porsche Cayman S
Tue, 19 Feb 2013A Blue-Blooded Valentine
I need you to understand what it's like to drive this car. I'm not talking about your ability to comprehend the words on this page or process the figures that surround the 2014 Porsche Cayman S, but rather what it feels like to take control of a car conceived, designed, engineered and manufactured to set your prefrontal cortex alight with all the glee a Zippo typically reserves for pine needles marinated in jet fuel. From the instant you put your tail in the driver's seat, the Cayman sets about impregnating your veins with a full and varied spectrum of ludicrous emotion. It's not like taking the family pickup to market, I can tell you that much.
For 2014, the next-generation Cayman features many of the same styling tweaks first displayed on the coupe's drop-top cousin, the Boxster, though a spate of mechanical changes, more power, less weight and better efficiency join the party to further differentiate this model from its predecessor. And while additions like rev-matched downshifts and electronic power steering help push the Cayman into a new era, one fact remains unchanged: This is one of the best driving cars on the market. Period. Bear with me and I'll try to explain exactly why that is.
