This is not an inexpensive 993. There are several of those around as these vehicles approach 20 years of age. Most are fixed as they break leaving the owner having to put in lots of time and money and unable to truly appreciate the experience.. This Porsche was reconditioned with no expence spared. It was originally a US car and I chose the year 1995 to make sure that an SAI light issue would never occur. I have repaired several of these systems and they can be very expensive to clean out. All of the work was done by myself ,I would trust very few others to work on my car. The pictures tell the story of the effort to make this car as perfect as I could. Three years later there is not a single drop of oil leaking from anywhere. I just replaced all the pads ,rotors and sensors with OEM parts as you can see in the photos. I do not have time to drive this car so it is time to go to a new home. Although it is not cheap it is still a gift in this condition. The factory tan sport seats with matching red backs are in excellent condition. The 3 spoke custom leather wheel with red stitching is beautiful. The original goes with the car as well as the original front splitters.
Some recent major things done(last 10k-3yrs) It ran perfectly before this work was done. This is preventive maintenance. -New clutch,DMF and related components -Rebuilt alternator -Rebuilt distributer -Most hoses and oil lines new -new flywheel and speed sensor -All seals and gaskets replaced -new euro factory shocks and springs -sheet metal powder coated -fan and fan housing powder coated -new fan bearing -new engine wiring harness -new Beru red plug wires (custom made),caps and rotors,plugs -new factory brakes all around -new premium engine pad(ultimate) -new engine knock sensors -new a arm bushings -windshield and all corner lenses replaced by previous owner -previous owner had wheels refinished -clutch slave and hose replaced -fuel injectors professionally cleaned and spec tested -new recent battery -All hydraulic valve lifters replaced ( that causes the clack clack sound for a few seconds when you start a 993 from cold if you have more than 60-75k on it. The original factory ones just dissolve over time.) lots more On 14-Sep-14 at 18:46:19 EDT, seller added the following information: People have inquired about the recent brake work. It was completed last week and included removal , inspection of calipers. Removal ,cleaning and polishing of sliders. Reassembly with Porsche spiders (antisqueal clips) and OE pads. Full brake flush with new Premium dot 4. New OE Zimmerman coated /drilled rotors. On 15-Sep-14 at 11:57:37 EDT, seller added the following information: A person has requested information about the ultimate engine pad. This is a US manufactured replacement for the OE pad that you see lying on the top of most 993 engines. It is more expensive than the OE and is made of three materials. A foil back a felt inner and a special rubber outer. It is marketed as The Ultimate Sound Pad. Guaranteed not to fall apart like the original. Most of the cars suffer from this and in many cases the photo shots of the cars are at an angle that you can't make it out until you get your new car and open the engine compartment and see the pieces all over the engine. It is on even low mileage cars as it is a time thing not a mileage issue. You need to pull the engine and remove a lot of hoses ect to do a decent replacement job. You have to question when you hear of an engine rebuilt and see the pad in pieces on the new engine. That gives you an indication that it was done on a budget. Porsche engine tight budget rebuilds??? At almost twenty years most rubber parts are finished ,hence the need for preventive replacement or pay the price. A question came in on the rubber convertible top seal that goes above the windshield and down around the doors. It has been replaced with the Porsche part. $800. The top works and seals as good as new. On 15-Sep-14 at 23:45:43 EDT, seller added the following information: Of Note I have been told that the third number in my serial # is number 0 not the letter O as in the listing. So to confirm from my Porsche certificate of Authenticity WP0CA2991SS342944 |

Porsche Macan teaser reveals unique quad-LEDs
Fri, 11 Oct 2013In truth, all-but-undisguised prototypes for the upcoming Porsche Macan compact crossover have been spotted galavanting all around the globe for some time now, but even the least-camouflaged examples have been caught wearing eyepatches covering their headlights and taillights. A dark new teaser image from Porsche clues us in to why that is - the baby Cayenne is getting unique quad-LED peepers up front.
Porsche has been hinting at lighting innovations in its production cars through recent concept reveals, including the stunning Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo showcar from last year's Paris Motor Show. The wagonized Panamera also featured four-point LED arrays up front, as well is in the rear, so it seems likely that this lighting will become a Porsche design signature going forward.
Powerpoint slides leaked from a recent dealer meeting suggest the Macan S will arrive packing a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6, while the Macan Turbo will boast a 3.6-liter force-fed unit, with both models receiving seven-speed PDK dual-clutch gearboxes. Pricing is expected to range from $52,000 for the S model to $75,000 for the Turbo.
VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel
Fri, 26 Apr 2013Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
Porsche Cayman, Boxster caught in GTS trim
Sat, 18 Jan 2014A few months ago, we reported on some leaked information from an internal presentation for upcoming Porsche models. This included details about the Macan and the 911 Targa, which we now know to be true, but there was also talk about GTS versions of the Cayman and Boxster.
Well, it appears we're now getting our first look at these GTS models, as our spy photographers have just snapped a pair of Porsche prototypes out testing - one Cayman and one Boxster.
Right off the bat, we can see that both GTS-branded cars will get a slightly tweaked exterior with new fascias (bringing LED daytime running lights to the Cayman) and air diffusers at the rear. The true gem of these cars will be the added horsepower to the tune of 340 horsepower - a 15-hp bump. A manual transmission will likely be standard, as will Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM).
