1993 Porsche 911

This is an outstanding 1993 911 with many extras and updates.  It has been diligently serviced and maintained throughout its life, and recently had a complete maintenance overhaul as detailed below.  Not only have many major aspects of the car been recently refreshed, its look is unique on the road with a lower and wider wheelbase/suspension than a stock 911, resulting in a beautiful profile.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • ENGINE – The engine is in outstanding condition.  Recently, it had a complete maintenance review (see below for extras).
  • UPGRADED SUSPENSION – The car has H&R Performance Springs (which lowers the car’s profile by about 1.5 inches with improved handling).
  • UPGRADED WHEEL PROFILE – The car has H&R Wheel Spacers (which widens the wheel stance and improves performance with lower roll center and increased lateral stability).
  • UPGRADE PERFORMANCE – The engine has an Enhanced Engine Chip (along with a cut open airbox cover modification), adding 17hp above stock.
  • EXTERIOR - The exterior is in very clean condition with a few very minor signs of exterior wear.  The paint is ORIGINAL except that both bumpers were expertly restored this summer. This was to only eliminate some normal bumper peeling.
  • INTERIOR – The interior is in outstanding condition.  The leather seats were restored (including the replacement of reupholstered leather).  Additionally, the radio is a brand new Alpine CDE-143BT.
  • FRONT TRUNK – The interior front trunk is clean.  Note that the original tool kit is missing.

It has been my weekend car, but it is no longer practical to garage it in NYC so sadly I need to sell it.  Currently, it is being garaged in the Ann Arbor area.  It runs and drives perfectly, accelerates like new, and handles straight, true and tight.  This car is ready to be a daily driver or a weekend toy.   

It is hard to find a better 964, especially one which has so many recent service and maintenance updates including the all-important investment I've made to address the common problem of oil leaks that will be found on Porsches of this era.

I am happy to answer any and all questions.  If you live in the Ann Arbor area, please arrange for a test drive.  We also plan to post additional photos.

Porsche tells 2014 911 GT3 owners to park their cars pending inspection

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Porsche may have have a serious problem on its hands. After a rumored five 2014 911 GT3 coupes caught fire in recent weeks, Porsche launched an investigation and stopped delivering its road-ready racecar until it could diagnose the problem. Now, it has issued a press release asking all 2014 911 GT3 owners to immediately stop driving their cars until they can be inspected. Porsche is offering to pick up the cars from owners' homes and take them to the nearest dealer.
Porsche confirms that the at least two 911 GT3 coupes them have caught fire in Europe, and it has elected to inspect all 785 2014 GT3s worldwide. However, it claims no drivers have been injured in the fires. Unfortunately, Porsche says, "Internal studies to determine the cause of the engine damage have not been completed yet," so owners might have a bit of a wait before they are able to drive Porsche's ultimate 911 again. Scroll down to read the entire press release.

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English

Wed, Dec 14 2016

The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German Β– and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.

The 2014 Ruf RCT offers rear-drive action with 911 Turbo fun

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Ruf has 37 years of experience of turning Porsches into even higher performance machines. For the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, it's unveiling the RCT, or Ruf Carrera Turbo, which offers power to split the difference between Porsche's 911 Turbo and Turbo S models.
The RCT starts with a unique body kit with a new front air dam and drastically changed rear deck that combines both a small spoiler and air intake. Power is provided by a twin-turbocharged, 3.8-liter flat-six with 525 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque paired to either a seven-speed manual or seven-speed dual clutch transmission. That gives the Ruf a 5-hp and 15-lb-ft advantage over Porsche's own Turbo but is still less powerful than the full Turbo S. The RCT sprints to 62 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds and to a top speed of 196 mph.
However, the Ruf's big advantage is that it offers buyers the choice of either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, while Stuttgart's turbo models are only available spinning all four wheels. The RCT can also offers upgrades like an integrated roll cage and custom suspension packages, should the buyer be so inclined to splash out on racing kit.
