1987 944 Turbo w/ 61k miles, Clean Title, Guards Red / Black int. Good to Very Good Paint. Runs great - fantastic power (350hp) with no problems, accidents, etc. 3 years ago I spent $30,000 upgrading and replacing everything to the config below. Every hose, sensor, coil, rotor, timing belt, waterpump, plugs, wires, coolant tank, head gasket, turbo waterpump, waterpump relay, fan relays, and nearly every other part in the entire engine was replaced. Amsoil Oil and gear changes for the last 10 years that I have owned it. Given $40k+ into the car, the buy it now price is the lowest price and is extremely fair compared to similar cars in the market. I could potentially reduce the price by $800 if the set of Cup Wheels and New Tires are sold separately.

This car is a fantastic street / light track car with a reliable 350hp at 15psi. What a blast to drive.

Known Issues -

There are only a few minor issues worth noting other than normal wear and tear. There is a slight leak in oil pan gasket so the car gets a small quarter sized drip under the engine every few weeks. The driver side window switch doesn't always work consistently and should be replaced, the 968 hatch didn't line up perfectly so it is sticky when using the key or button to release the rear trunk, and there is a dent in driver side door (pictured).

Odometer Readings on VIN Check:

  • There are a number of erroneous mileage entries provided by state and 3rd party inspection stations over the cars 26 year life. The car was purchased from the 2nd owner in 2003 and since then has only been driven 14,000 miles. When my mechanic rebuilt the top end of the engine, he attested that the cylinder walls were so clean that there is no possibility of mileage rollback or issues.
  • Note that the report automatically rules out the erroneous mileage entries since they are either not possible or not from reputable sources. I am a 10 year PCA member and can show you in detail just how clean and new this car is for its age.

 

Also Includes-

  • Noah Indoor/Outdoor Car Cover
  • 2 Keys, original manuals and receipts
  • 100+ photos from engine upgrades
  • Original Airbag Steering Wheel, and Misc. Parts.

Porsche Boxster spied in the buff

Thu, Aug 6 2015

Porsche is preparing a significant update to its entry level Boxster convertible, and while visually this might appear to be a simple refresh, the changes are more than skin deep. Following a number of rumors, Porsche will finally make the jump to turbocharged engines on a broad scale, and it starts with this new Boxster. According to our spies, it's the larger side intakes featured on this prototype that give away its smaller, force-induced flat-four engine. The dual exhaust pipes, meanwhile, say Boxster S to us, rather than just the basic model. Beyond the mechanical changes, this marks the first time we've seen the new Boxster completely free of camouflage. We can see that Porsche's stylists – famous for revolutionary designs slowly tweaking the same style for decads on end – adjusted the look of the front and rear fascias. We like the more aggressively canted headlights, which get the same four-pointed LEDs as its big brother, the 911. The slimmer taillights are a minor improvement on the inoffensive lamps fitted to the current car, and serve to take some attention off the all-plastic exhaust surround, which is much more simply styled than the current car's. It should also be noted that the aesthetics featured on the new Boxster are very, very likely to be transferred directly onto the new Cayman. You can check out our full gallery of shots of the all-new, totally undisguised Boxster in the gallery up top. Expect to see the new roadster around this time next year, with a debut at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show likely. Related Video:

UPDATE: Porsche could raise its stake in Rimac, and Rimac weighs in

Sun, Feb 28 2021

CLARIFICATION: An earlier version of this Reuters story said Porsche could raise its stake in Rimac to nearly 50%, but Rimac reached out to Autoblog to say that's not so. Here is a statement from Mate Rimac: "We have a very strong partnership with Porsche that is key for Rimac Automobili. Porsche is a shareholder in Rimac since 2018 with 15.5% ownership currently, accumulated over several rounds of investment. While it is true that we are discussing further expansion of this collaboration that will lead to increase of Porsche's stake in Rimac Automobili, some media have mistakenly reported that Porsche would take over 50% or nearly 50% of the company.   We are very happy that the partnership with Porsche will strengthen even further, but it is in the interest of both Rimac and Porsche that Rimac is a fully independent company. We are working with many car companies that are not our shareholders and there is a clear separation between shareholding and projects. It is very important to us that our industry customers have the peace of mind that Rimac is independent and that there is an "Information Firewall" between projects and shareholders (not only Porsche, but also Hyundai and others) - and this will not change. Confidentiality is very valued in the industry and one of the basics for collaboration between companies. Our shareholders are happy with such an arrangement and expect the same level of professional behaviour and confidentiality for their projects and customer projects.   So, the point is: Porsche's stake will increase but nowhere near to 50% and Rimac will remain independent with many industry customers that are not our shareholders/investors." The original story, with the 50% reference removed, appears below.   FRANKFURT — Volkswagen unit Porsche is participating in a financing round of Rimac Automobili that will see the electric supercar maker raise 130 million-150 million euros ($157 million-$181 million), its owner Mate Rimac told weekly Automobilwoche. The fundraising should be completed in two to three months and another round is planned at the end of the year, Rimac told the trade journal. Porsche owns a 15.5% stake in Rimac Automobili and could raise its stake in a deal that would also include the transfer of Volkswagen's supercar brand Bugatti to Rimac, Automobilwoche said. Volkswagen and Rimac were not immediately available for comment on Sunday.

First-ever Porsche headed home to company museum

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

About 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.
