This is a NO RESERVE listing.

This is my 1988 Porsche 944 Special Edition coupe with only 100,588 miles.

This is one of the best-condition, low-mileage Porsche 944 models you will find for sale anywhere in the country.

The Special Edition is very rare, only 500 of these cars were brought to the US total, and only 250 in this unique Zermatt Silver color.

The timing belt, rollers and water pump were replaced on this car 7000 miles ago. This is CRITICAL maintenance on a 944- do not buy a 944 that you do not know the last timing belt replacement, or figure to spend $1200 on this service immediately upon purchase. If the timing belt breaks, the engine is destroyed.

This car has the following equipment and options:

2.5L all-aluminum engine
5-speed manual transmission
leather bucket seats
automatic heating/climate control with A/C (retrofitted to R134a and working properly)
huge tilting and removable sunroof with storage sack
power steering and brakes
power locks and windows
heated power mirrors
staggered Phone Dial alloy wheels
integrated front foglights
Special Edition package

I have the books and manuals for this car, as well as the original window sticker. The base price of the car was $29,100 plus options of Zermatt Silver Metallic ($645) and the rare Special Edition Package ($2437) with a total as-delivered price of $33,100.

This Porsche runs and drives very well. I just took the car on a 400-mile weekend trip and it performed beautifully. The air conditioning has been retrofitted to R134a and it blows cold. The engine is smooth and powerful, the transmission shifts perfectly, the clutch is tight, the suspension is very tight and stable, the brakes are good and the car drives wonderfully. This is a totally reliable and dependable car that I would drive across the country with no hesitation.

The interior of the car is in good shape. The leather seats are newer to the car look good. The plaid Special Edition upholstery is in good shape and looks nice. The carpets are clean and in great condition. This interior is in very nice condition overall.

The paint and exterior look very good. The paint appears to be all original, with no known accidents or damage. There is no body rust anywhere. This car looks very good all around.

Also included with the car is some very valuable upgrade hardware that would be useful if you wanted to track this car. I have a set of Koni adjustable coil-over front shocks plus a set of Koni rear shocks. I also have 944 Turbo front spindles and brake calipers. These parts alone are worth at least a few hundred dollars.

This is a 1988 car and as such it is not perfect. Please expect normal issues of wear and tear consistent with the age of the car. Here is a list of everything I know of that is wrong with the car: The leather seats show some wear. There are a few cracks in the dashboard. The sunroof raises electrically but comes back down as soon as you release the button. The sunroof removes from the car and reattaches perfectly. There are some minor dings on the hood. The outside passenger door handle does not work. The aluminum wheels are not perfect cosmetically.

I should mention that the dashboard clock/lap timer works perfectly which is very rare. These clocks are going for $500 nowadays due to their rarity.

This is a great-running, great-looking, dependable and reliable Porsche 944. I imagine you would have to look for a long time to find another one this nice for sale.

You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. Alternatively you can have the car shipped, please call Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481 for a shipping quote.

Petrolicious finds a Porsche 356 that thrives on dirt roads

Thu, Oct 22 2015

Matt Hummel is absolutely not the typical vintage Porsche owner. Instead, his mantra is simple: "Get it running!" In the latest video from Petrolicious, hop behind the wheel of a well-loved 1956 Porsche 356 for a blast over some rutted dirt and gravel roads with a fascinating owner. When he found it, Hummel's 356 had been sitting in a barn since the late '70s, and it looked extremely rough. Despite the beat condition, he eventually decided not to just let the coupe sit anymore and used some parts that he had to get it running again. Now, the Porsche with its flaking paint and ripped interior is Hummel's favorite companion for getting lost on rural roads. While Hummel's story is fascinating, Petrolicious does a superb job on the cinematography, too. This 356 lives in some picturesque surroundings, and the video captures that scenery beautifully.

Porsche 918 Spyder pre-production version in all its almost-done glory

Sun, 18 Aug 2013

Porsche continues the long tease of its upcoming 918 Spyder, with the latest instantiation here at the Pebble Beach Concours, with the car presented in pre-production form to the throngs on the golf course.
Just a few days ago Porsche dropped an image of the car on its official Twitter feed. True to that leak, this 918 looks damn near what we expect the full customer version to be when it is officially debuted in Frankfurt. The neon-green brake calipers are items new to this version of the 918, and seem to be an identical color to those found on the Panamera S E-Hybrid.
When it shows up as a drivable piece, expect the Porsche supercar, with its gasoline-electric drivetrain, to be pretty insane. Horsepower in excess of 800 ponies will be available with a toe-tap, while the price of entry is expected to come within shouting distance of $850,000. A good deal for Porsche to bring the thing to Pebble then, where buyers with that kind of cash are think on the ground (and most likely wearing sherbet-colored trousers).

2014 Porsche 911 Targa takes its crop-top off in Motor City

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

Back in 1965, Porsche invented the 911 Targa as a matter necessity. Believing that a finicky National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was prepared to outlaw convertibles, the innovative automaker created the half-open car as a way to keep wind rushing through owners' hair. Though far removed from those formative days, it seems as though the 2015 Porsche 911 Targa has come to the Detroit Auto Show with a new-school version of some old-school tech.
While the last Targa featured a trick sliding glass roof at the touch of the button, the new car dramatically swallows a traditional-looking panel via an exceptionally complex-looking mechanical operation. The net result is "the same fun factor and freedom" that can be had with a complete convertible, though with slightly more open-driving protection while underway.
And, as is the case with all of the current 911 range, getting underway can be done with reasonable rapidity. The entry-level Targa 4 rocks a 350-horsepower, 3.4-liter flat-six engine just behind the rear axle, making that car good for 175 miles per hour at the top end (with the seven-speed manual, 174 mph with PDK) and a 0-to-60 sprint of 4.6 seconds. The Targa 4S, meanwhile, offers 400 horsepower from 3.8-liters of boxer six, runs to 60 in 4.2 seconds and hits a top "track speed" of 183 mph.
