1985 Excellent Condition, Low Miles, Exceptionally Clean, No Reserve on 2040-cars
Merrick, New York, United States
You are
viewing my 1985 Porsche 928S. This car is truly for the vintage sport car
enthusiast. It has never been performance modified, raced or been required to
go through a major restoration to bring it back to life from a neglected
ownership. The low miles
shown on the working odometer are actual. It has never been involved in any
sort of accident. There is no rust through on any part of the sheet metal
structure, all the body panels are exceptionally straight and are in perfect
alignment. The new owner
of the car will not be disappointed. This is an excellent example of the
classic 32 valve S3 series coupe. Read on for a more detailed description of
the overall condition of the car. The interior
is in excellent condition. There are no rips, open seams or tears on the
leather sport comfort seats front and rear. The brown wool carpet is in very
good condition with the exception of the piece on the rear deck that has sun
faded and worn. The dash/instrument panel is excellent, but (not uncommon) there
are a few (3) hairline stress cracks on the top surface of the dash panel. All
gauges are in working condition, upgraded stereo, lights, fans, windows and
heat controls work as well. The AC system is fully charged and blows ice cold
air. The engine
starts right up with no smoke or oil consumption. It idles smoothly with no unusual
noises. Oil pressure holds steady and high when fully warmed up. The car runs
and drives very well. The 4 speed auto automatic transmission shifts smoothly
and quietly. Suspension and steering are very solid with no rattles or wheel
shimmy. When I
purchased the car, it had been off the road since 2001. As part of the
mechanical refresh to make it roadworthy ago the following services were
performed: Upper Engine
– new cam cover gaskets, cam end seals, all new vacuum and oil separation
hoses, new high pressure fuel lines, TPS, Laso water pump, Timing Belt, rebuilt
TB tensioner, new (old stock) OEM spark plug wire set, new Bosch fuel pump,
fuel injectors and much more. Service part receipts and a full photo documentation
of work progression are available upon request. Common
maintenance items - new battery, belts, brakes and Dunlop 225/50-16 speed rated tires at all 4
corners. Cosmetic
Upgrades – new Porsche tinted front glass with built-in antenna, professional
quality base coat\clear coat paint re-spray in the original Grand Prix white
color, earlier model quarter glass rubber with rear spoiler delete kit and H4
Euro headlights. I have tried
to include as many pictures to depict the true condition of the car. Please
e-mail if you have specific questions. Please keep in mind that the car is 29
years old and although excellent condition for its age, due to normal wear and
tear, have realistic expectations for a vehicle that been in service all these
years. This car is
being offered in a no reserve auction with a very modest starting price. Please email and I will promptly assist you
with any questions you may have. Please read the good and bad in the
description above. I will make myself
available for anyone requesting a physical inspection Terms The winning bidder must confirm bid with a
$300 non-refundable deposit within 3 days of close of auction. The balance is
due within 10 days. This car is sold as-is where-is. Local buyers are always
encouraged to inspect in person before bidding. If you would like to have
the vehicle shipped, let me know and I can make arrangements with your vehicle
shipping provider after the listing closes. Buyer pays actual shipping costs. |

Porsche 911 GT3 Cup ANDIAL Edition First Drive
Mon, Dec 15 2014There is only one Porsche 911 GT3 Cup ANDIAL Edition on the planet, and its owner is standing patiently in the hot pits at Oklahoma's Hallett Motor Racing Circuit, watching attentively as his prized possession circles the challenging road course at speed. I'm the lucky soul strapped firmly in the cockpit of the white-and-blue racecar. The tight carbon-fiber seat is cutting into my hips, the racket from the gearbox is making me deaf and a river of sweat is flowing off the tip my nose – blame the high ambient temperatures combined with the stress of driving someone else's expensive machine on an utterly unfamiliar circuit. But don't expect me to complain, gripe or come into the pits early, as I'm having the time of my life – I've eagerly waited nearly half-a-year for this moment, and short of me blacking out, there's no way I'm cutting it short. It's been said that ANDIAL-prepared cars and engines have claimed victories on every major racetrack in this country. Belting into the driver's seat of an ANDIAL-prepared Porsche fulfills a personal dream that started decades earlier when I thumbtacked a picture of a white Porsche 935 on my dorm room wall, its colorful bodywork stenciled with "ANDIAL" along the bottom of the driver's door. In the 1980s, the name of the privately held racing company was synonymous with Porsche and victory – it's been said that ANDIAL-prepared cars and engines have claimed victories on every major racetrack in this country. As its founders retired and the company focused on smaller specialty projects, ANDIAL's business model changed, but its relationship with Porsche remained strong. In early 2013, it was announced that the Porsche Motorsports North America, Inc. (PMNA) had purchased the brand – yet there was still no word as to how the famed ANDIAL name, an anagram made from the names of the founding members – the late Arnold Wagner (AN), Dieter Inzenhofer (DI) and former PMNA president and current consultant Alwin Springer (AL) would be used. Some answers emerged in February of this year when I received a phone call from Porsche. The company offered to have me to visit ANDIAL's shop in Southern California, which is now operating entirely under the direction of PMNA. Entering one of the shop's bays, I found myself face-to-face with a lightly used 997 GT3 Cup racecar. The vehicle was in the early stages of a complete teardown and rebuild – in preparation for its rollout in traditional red, white and blue ANDIAL livery.
Porsche Cayman S and Caterham 7 go head to head on the drag strip
Fri, 27 Jun 2014We recently saw the standard Porsche Cayman go up against a Subaru WRX STI in a one-mile drag race with surprising results. Apparently, Evo had a similar idea of evaluating the Cayman's quickness. However, it opted for the more powerful S model and chose a flyweight Caterham Roadsport 140 as the challenger. Will the results of this battle be as close at the end of the kilometer-long (0.62-mile) drag?
Neither of these are cars you'd usually associate with drag racing, but they are nearly evenly matched. Evo selected them based on power-to-weight ratio, with the Caterham offering a scant 140 horsepower in a lithe 1,213-pound package. The Porsche is a quite svelte 2,910 pounds but has 325 hp to haul it around.
Of course, power-to-weight ratio isn't everything. There are a ton of other variables like aerodynamics and gearing that play a huge role, as well. Can the little Caterham's weight advantage overcome the better aero and additional power of the Porsche? Scroll down watch the video and find out.
Watch a Porsche 918 Spyder being built by hand
Sat, Jan 3 2015No music track, no dialogue, no voiceover, just a group of women and men in a very clean room in Zuffenhausen assembling the Porsche 918 Spyder. It's the antidote to the adrenaline that the open-topped hybrid coupe encourages in most enthusiast bloodstreams, but this nearly-11-minute video is the most captivating B-roll we've seen in a while. From hand-sewn leather to hand-wrapped trim, monococques being wheeled about, the copious use of shims and the rear brace being fitted over the engine, plus the Christmas-like joy of opening a box of body panels, it's all in there. You can't buy a new one anymore, but you can see how they're built for those who did buy them in the video above.
