THE ULTIMATE GERMAN MUSCLE CAR (Made Better) If you're not seeking a squeaky clean garage queen then skip this listing Imagine what this 928 was like new, if it were built today. Nothing looks or appears "worn" on this Porsche because if it was, it has already been replaced. This is what museum quality means. This 928 literally lights up a room and provides both a visual and auditory experience to go with it. Although this custom can be driven daily (if you so desire), it has only been used for show purposes and presently sits in my private collection. Did you catch that? This collectible is not from a dealer lot, dealer inventory, or third party agent. NO, no. I am the real owner. NOT from some backlot dealer inventory or third-party consignor, this Porsche is offered from the collector who knows how it was built. Commissioned to be fabricated by the lead CANADIAN pursuit vehicle installer, this Porsche not only looks and sounds great, it also includes the interceptor performance package to go with it. There is no other one in the world that has ever been built to match it. More photos of the operating light bars and flashing sequences are not permitted in this online advertising source. Neither is the use of law enforcement words. Therefore, you will need to go to the website (upon request) to enjoy the entire show. And only if this truly intrigues you. Not to satisfy any curiosity please. This is a real car for a real buyer. Being sold from my own private collection to another serious collector of fine automobiles. If you are a serious collector of unique automobiles, chances are this one is missing from your stable. There is no disappointments here. It is a WOW Factor car upon first glance in person. Now Read on... IF YOU LIKE SUPER CLEAN. I MEAN CONCOURS CONDITION. MUSEUM PIECE. SHOW READY. THIS IS THE ONE. THIS IS A NICELY APPOINTED HIGHLY OPTIONED 928 WITH FACTORY DUAL HEATED AND POWER SEATS AND DUAL POWER LUMBAR FEATURE WITH FACTORY ALARM. IT BOASTS THE ORIGINAL MARINE BLUE LEATHER INTERIOR AND ORIGINAL EXTERIOR FACTORY PAINT WITH GTS UPGRADES. ULTRA CLEAN. SPECIALTY CUSTOM. THE HEAT-WRAPPED HEADER INSTALLED CUSTOM BUILT MAGNA-FLOW EXHAUST SYSTEM IS MEANT FOR PERFORMANCE. THE WAY AN UNRESTRICTED V8 SHOULD SOUND AND GO. THAT'S RIGHT, A TRUE DUAL EXHAUST WITH CHROME DUAL EXHAUST TIPS (something real 928's never had). EVERY REAL PERFORMANCE CAR HAS TWIN TIPS. IT COMPLETES THE REAR LIKE A 911. IF WORDS LIKE: UNIQUE, EXCLUSIVE, MEMBERS ONLY, OR ONE- OF-A-KIND ARE IN YOUR VOCABULARY, THEN THIS PORSCHE MIGHT JUST BE FOR YOU. I'M NOT BIG ON EXTRAVAGANT SALES PITCHES AND FLAMBOYANT ADS. THIS PORSCHE REALLY SELLS ITSELF. I'M LOOKING TO MOVE A CLASSIC CAR OUT OF THE COLLECTION AND THIS MIGHT BE THE ONE IF A TRULY INTERESTED BUYER COMES ALONG. AS THE VALUE OF WORLD CURRENCIES FALL, CLASSIC CARS CONTINUE TO BECOME REAL TANGIBLE USEABLE INVESTMENTS. HERE YOU HAVE AN APPRECIATING ITEM OF TRUE AND LASTING VALUE. I REALIZE 928's BRING ALONG A DIFFERENT BREED OF BUYERS THAN DO 911's. THEREFORE, I WOULD LIKE THIS COLLECTORS PIECE TO GO TO ANOTHER COLLECTOR AND NOT SOMEONE LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CHEAP 928. THIS PARTICULAR 928 WAS IN PORSCHE PANORAMA MAGAZINE FEATURED IN A PCA CLUB DISPLAY AND REMAINS IN SHOW STATUS. OWNED BY A PERFECTIONIST, EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE, IS DONE. ON PRICE... MOST RECOGNIZE THAT YOU COULD NOT COMPLETE A BUILD OF THIS QUALITY FOR THE STARTING PRICE SEEN HERE. ANYONE WHO HAS EVER TAKEN ON A 3-to-5 YEAR CUSTOM CAR PROJECT KNOWS WHAT I MEAN. FINANCIALLY, THE BUYER ALWAYS GETS THE BETTER DEAL WHEN THE CAR IS PRESENTED AS "DONE". THEREFORE, THE PRICE IS FAR BELOW THE VALUE OF WHAT IS OFFERED HERE AS A CUSTOM BUILD. FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO PLACE BIDS FOR SOMETHING THEY NEVER REALLY HAVE ANY DESIRE TO PURCHASE, LEAVE THIS FOR THE REAL BUYERS. FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN THE MARKET, THE BEST PART: NO RESERVE. SO PLEASE... TEXT, TALK AND TYPE ON DISCUSSION FORUMS AND SOCIAL MEDIA OUTLETS AS THIS DOES ME A GREAT FAVOR. IT ADDS TO GETTING THE WORD OUT (free advertising for me). REGARDLESS OF THE IMHO COMMENTS, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE NUMBERS. THE MORE PEOPLE THAT KNOW ABOUT THIS PORSCHE, THE BETTER. THIS IS THE BEST FORM OF ADVERTISING, SO THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. NOTE: Actual law enforcement pursuit roof light bar and interior emergency light bars and related accessories will be removed prior to shipping. These can be made available to the buyer if so desired. In addition, the tactical vest and accessories and special order DMV Germany plate will also be made available separately. WHY? These "flashy" items add no real tangible value to the actual car. So I'm told. Of course, all are available for viewing "in action" if one desires to consider having them as part of the collection. SPECIAL NOTE ON PROVENANCE: This car has a very CLEAN and CLEAR title (history). It was hand-built by Porsche in Stuttgart for the Canadian market and has never left Canada since arriving here. To those in Canada and Europe, this means it's given similar specifications as EURO spec models which makes it more desirable and more rare than a traditional U.S. spec 928. Sold and owned in Canada from new, it boasts having EURO instrumentation with a 300km/h speedometer from the factory. More importantly, it's traceable right to the day of its initial sale from the Porsche dealer in Vancouver, B.C. CANADA on January 2, 1988. That's right, 26 years ago. Therefore, this officially classifies it as antique status in Canada. Once again, this is not an import from the U.S. or overseas with a multi-owner background. We all know, the three most important qualities in real estate is LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. In a classic car, it's PROVENANCE, PROVENANCE, and PROVENANCE which only adds to its value as a collectible. OVER THE TOP IN EVERY WAY... You want something unique? You want something already "done"? You want a Porsche you can drive or show? You want a Porsche you can be proud to own? It's right here... A newer interior with original leather seats and body. A clean history and clear title. Yes, it can be registered and driven the way it is. Yes, the custom decaling and light bars and controller and LED amplifier and sirens and air horn and flashers and strobes and red and blues and intercom and DMV Germany plate and even the gold plating will all be disabled and removed. The point is even with all that "jazz" out of the way, this is still a concours condition 928 so you get to start off with something FRESH. And that is the best way to begin the new season ahead. The opportunity to enjoy life comes only once. So enjoy the journey... it is the reward... and it continues right here... beginning with your bid. ONLY TERM & CONDITION (FINAL BID NOTICE): The winning buyer will be invoiced 10% of the final bid price to be paid within 48 hours as a non-refundable deposit to confirm sale of the vehicle. NOTE TO POTENTIAL U.S. BUYERS: This is not a listing for the U.S. market. Yes, it can be imported into the United States. I just find that from past experience most buyers have no clue how to go about doing that. If you are truly interested, contact me. The simplest way is to hire a broker. After all, this is an investment so invest to have it imported easily. ...IF YOU MADE IT THIS FAR, THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST… |

Ford GT dominates Le Mans qualifying, gets slapped with performance adjustment
Fri, Jun 17 2016Fifty years after Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon drove the Ford GT40 to victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford is poised for a historic return to the Circuit de la Sarthe. The new Ford GT took the top two qualifying positions in the LMGTE Pro class, and four of the top five. Ferrari's 488 filled in the rest of the spots in the top seven, the first two from AF Corse. In other words, we're primed for a reboot of the classic Ford-Ferrari feud at this year's race. Or not, as the ACO, which organizes the 24 Hours of Le Mans, announced sweeping pre-race Balance of Performance (BOP) adjustments this morning that make this year's GT class anybody's race. In LMP1, last year's overall winner Porsche locked up the top two spots with the 919 Hybrid and will lead the entire field at race start. Toyota's two-car factory effort followed with qualifying times 1.004 and 2.170 seconds behind the pole lap. Audi rounds out the manufacturer-backed LMP1 class in fifth and sixth. Full qualifying results can be found here. The storyline for the GT cars is perfect - some say too perfect. Ford's class-leading times came after BOP adjustment to the Corvette Racing C7.R before qualifying. BOP is intended to level the playing field in the class by adjusting power, ballast, and fuel capacity. (Check out this explainer video for more, or even just if you love French accents.) But the process is riddled with unknowns and ripe for accusations of sandbagging. That is, if the Ford cars were intentionally slow in practice they could hope for BOP adjustment to improve their race chances. On the Corvette side, last year's GTE Pro winner went from the top of the field to the bottom, barely improving from practice to qualifying. If you think Le Mans is as rigged at the NBA Playoffs, well, it's not that simple. Because if Ford and Ferrari held back until qualifying - the eighth-place Porsche 911 RSR is three-and-a-half seconds off the class pole time - it was a pretty dumb strategy. This morning, the ACO tried to put things back in order by limiting the boost in the Ford GT's twin-turbo V6 and adding 11 pounds of ballast. Ferrari was also given extra weight but allowed more fuel capacity. The Corvette and Aston Martin teams were both given breaks on their air restrictors, which will allow their engines to make more power. Both Ford and Porsche also received extra fuel capacity.
2015 Porsche Cayenne GTS proves performance is relative
Thu, Nov 20 2014The Turbo may be the most powerful model in the Cayenne range, but the GTS is arguably the enthusiast's choice. (In so far as a 4,500-pound crossover can be considered an "enthusiast's choice," anyway.) And now, after refreshing the rest of the Cayenne lineup, Porsche has revealed the new Cayenne GTS, alongside its new 911 GTS stablemate, here at the LA Auto Show. Like the new Cayenne S, the new GTS drops the previous version's atmospheric V8 for a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6, but ups the output to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque to propel Zuffenhausen's portliest to 62 in a scant 5.2 seconds. Alongside the power upgrade, the GTS gets a lowered air suspension and sportier exhaust, the beefier brakes from the Cayenne Turbo and an upgraded aero kit to help with the whole barn-door-profile thing. Just don't expect all that extra kit and the prestige of a Porsche badge on your crossover to come cheap, with prices starting at $95,500 (plus $995 destination).
2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base
Tue, 14 Jan 2014If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.
