This is a 1987 Porsche 944 base coupe with an automatic transmission.  I will attempt to describe everything as accurately as possible, but please, if you have any questions email me and I will get back to you as quickly as possible.  First things first, I have only owned the car about 3 weeks, it was a bit of a "garage" find if you will.  When I bought the vehicle it was not running, it would turn over but that was about it.  I have gone through most everything on the engine cleaning and replacing parts as I have come across them.  The following is what has been replaced, starter, distributor, plug wires, spark plugs, fuel pump, fuel filter, dme relay, vacumn hoses, speed and reference sensor, front sway bar bushings, and the AFM has been refurbished.  The good news is that all those parts have gotten the car running and back on the road again, unfortunately there still seems to be a slight problem with the idle, occasionally the rpms will drop and the car will shut off.  I have not had this happen while driving, only on initial start up before the car is warmed up, I have not had any issues once the car is warm.  The only other issue mechanically that I am aware of is there seems to be a very slight leak somewhere in the power steering system, it has to sit for a few days to actually notice a wet spot on the ground but if you look under the car you can see some fluid on and around the pump.  The car still drives and handles really well so it is probably just a seal somewhere or else it would not be working.  All other flaws to the car are cosmetic, it does not have perfect paint or a perfectly straight body, while there is no rust or major damage to the vehicle it does have dings, scratches, and paint chips that could be expected of a 26 year old vehicle.  I will try to get the best shots possible to show the areas I am talking about.  Don't get me wrong, this is still a great looking car and I still get many looks and compliments driving around town.  The interior is in pretty good shape with the exception of the drivers seat, the bottom of it will need to be replaced or reupholstered.  The dash has the normal crack in it and the odometer has quit working which is pretty common in this model vehicle.  The car does has an aftermarket head unit, power windows, power doorlocks, power sunroof, and power seat for the drivers side.  The sunroof is missing the latches that secure it to the drive mechanism, these can be found online fairly cheaply.  The tires on the car seem to be fairly new, they have lots of tread left on them. 

Again, I think I have described the car to the best of my ability, I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story.  The car has been a blast to drive for the short period of time that I have owned it, please email with any questions. I do have the title in hand and ready to go.

This car is a used car, so it is being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  Please understand that you are not buying a perfect car,, the price is reflective of that, it still needs some work to be perfect.

I will do my best to accommodate whatever shipping company the buyer chooses to use, I will not be responsible for shipping this vehicle, that is up to you.

NHTSA closes probe into 2011 Porsche 911 coolant leaks

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it will end its investigation into rapid coolant loss in 24,635 Porsche 911s built between 2001 and 2011. The models affected included the standard 911, GT2, GT3 and Turbo, as well as their variants (GT2 RS, GT3 RS and Turbo S).
NHTSA was investigating for "rapid coolant loss caused by coolant pipe-fitting failure, allegedly resulting in vehicle disablement and/or loss of vehicle control due to reduced traction for the affected vehicle or following traffic," according to the regulators website. "Most of the leak complaints did not appear to involve complete separation of the fittings and many were detected when the vehicle was parked," said NHTSA's statement.
There were 63 complaints and 336 warranty claims, although the investigation was initiated after ten complaints from customers. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries attributed to rapid coolant loss.

We get wet with Porsche's Cayman GT4 and 911 GT3 RS

Fri, Nov 13 2015

In case you missed them, we recently published our First Drive impressions on the super-hot 2016 Porsche Cayman GT4 and the 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Spoiler alert: they're lovely. In order to properly test these new machines, Porsche let senior editor Alex Kierstein loose on Road Atlanta. But rather than a blissful day of warm, dry conditions, this test session proved to be a super gross experience. The track was soaked. But that didn't stop Kierstein from manhandling both coupes with confidence. Credit where credit's due, Alex said the tires on the GT3 RS were absolutely amazing, and proved helpful for getting the most out of the most hardcore 911 in these incredibly damp conditions. Have a look at Kierstein's experience in both cars, in the video above. We can't wait to get these bad boys out on some dry roads.

Porsche recalling 4,400 911, Boxster and Cayman models over hood latches

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Porsche has issued a "precautionary" and voluntary safety recall affecting some 4,400 sports cars across the globe. Here in the United States, the recall includes 1,382 911, Boxster convertibles and Cayman coupes, all of which are from model years 2014 and 2015.
Porsche will be replacing the lock bracket for the front cargo area (the frunk) after internal testing revealed that, while the vehicles meet "strength requirements," specific parts might not meet the company's quality standards throughout the vehicle's life. There have been no reports of accidents or injuries.
Owners of the affected cars will be notified within 60 days and will need to report to a nearby dealer for a free repair, which should take about 30 minutes.
