1986.5 5-speed Porsche 928 S Turbocharged 22,900 Miles, 2-owner Concours Gt Gts on 2040-cars
Austin, Texas, United States
Parting with my beloved after 7 years of great car shows,
OCIC, and ThirdCoast Events, usually placing/winning entered events including
another 1st place at the regional annual 928 Third Coast show last weekend. No wrecks, never been disassembled (engine or body) for any reason Imported in Cali, shipped to the northeast US for a while,
then to Honolulu where I purchased in Hawaii in 2006 with 10,700 miles from
first owner Had been washed 20x and
waxed 3 (yes, he knew). Porsche of Honolulu wouldn't take my $ for a PPI:
car was known by all in the shop to be basically as-new....even the 20-year old
t-belt! I have scans of both the original title from Original window sticker $54,900 new in '86. Window sticker is now hard-laminated and included with sale. Red/black, some leather options such as rear seat backs, door sills, and rear quarters. Mink-oil conditioned Leather is 10/10, interior is 10/10. It is as-new in all respects: texture, softness, stitching, coloration, no stretching, etc. Only the radio unit has been modernized and the ashtray replaced with an AEM Wideband gauge and an AEM TruBoost boost controller. Original ashtray will be included in sale of car, though car has NEVER been smoked in and still smells new. 8-way power on both seats Stored in my Air Conditioned garage and rarely sees sunlight. Yes, the dashboard is perfect. Car did ship to original owner with both a vinyl and a leather sunvisor: weird. Rare side-molding delete option on an exquisite exterior 9.5/10 condition after 27 years. Paint ONLY receives the oily Natty's Red Paste wax to help preserve it's perfectly colored and sun-protected Guard's Red paint and all black trim/rubber seals. Never buffed, no paint burns. Rear-driver's 3/4 shot shows touched up scuffs from original owner. There are a few paint blemishes but overall presentation is stunning and there are panels on the which remain showroom perfect in all respects. No rock chips (except for mirrors which is common), just a few rock scuffs. All lenses, glass, seals, trim, rubber are as-new as if just rolled off the assembly line except for the lower door seals where a linear crack is evident as they are on all 928’s purely based on the pressure placed on them over the last 27 years. Seal itself is perfect and does not accumulate wax nor is the crack noticeable; it’s just there so I must disclose that.
Turbocharger kit was installed in 2007: a single
Dual-ballbearing T67mm Precision unit with the kit manufactured by
Boostlogic.com Performance Racing parts - Boostlogic.com Performance Racing
parts and myself. Tuned to 405rwhp/400rwtq at mere 5.5psi with custom timing
chips by Sharktuner and an SMPT-6 piggy back fuel tuner. A Bosch 044 fuel
pump and new fuel filter was added in ’07 during kit installation. No lag, great sound, super reliable as I’ve
not adjusted/touched a single aspect of the turbo kit since it’s installation
in ’07.
Dual air conditioning converted to R134a by the
Butter-smooth shifting 5-speed with Original clutch. I've
owned 5 other 928's including the pictured race car: this car drives/shifts
as-new in all respects. Other items: 3M tint, 3M clear bra, retrofitted HID
Fogs in factory housings. Lloyd's "turbo" 928 floor mats, adjustable
sway bar, front Koni's, original brake rotors and pads, 18x10 & 18x8 Sport
Edition Cup wheels (245/35), and 295/30 road race R888's in the rear because
spinning the tires at 80mph tends to drain your adrenaline pretty quick.
No oil leaks. Maintenance: 2006 when received: t-belt,
idler bolt bushings, all fluids flushed (redline, ATE Super blue, G05 w/water
wetter and a 75 degree t-stat), new ignition wires, plugs (for turbocharging).
New tie rods and delrin bushings at PS rack + alignment to sharpen steering
after lowering 1.25"
2007: turbo kit, front Koni's, epoxy-painted calipers, SS
brake lines, ATE Super blue. OIl changed every 2k miles: Valvoline Racing 20/50
with OE Porsche filters.
Factory air box, air tubes, catalytic converters available
with car...car passed Texas emission testing EASILY while
turbocharged...without cats. Video's available on Youtube under
PorscheMark69
All records, hard-laminated window sticker, factory
books/manuals, luggage cover, cargo net, three keys, and OEM '86 Porsche car
cover all included with sale.
open to other '85-00 Porsche partial trades
Will deliver within 200 miles of This
car is known to be the lowest mile 86.5 in the country. It’s probable that it’s nicer than any GTS
you may be looking at currently…so why
pay more for a car that’s not in as good of condition and is slower or worse,
is an automatic. You REALLY want the 5-speed…makes all the difference on 928s! It's reserve is
priced accordingly but is also the best out there in addition to the low
mileage. It's light, fast, not too quiet, smooth, classic, it handles, it
brakes, and draws attention wherever it goes. I reserve the right to cancel
this auction due to it being posted on the PCA national site as well as a few
other places. Email me if you really want it now. :) Good luck. |

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.
2015 Porsche Panamera Exclusive Series is a seriously quick way to spend $260k
Wed, 19 Nov 2014Porsche is usually associated with being a sports car brand, but with vehicles like the Cayenne and Panamera it takes a step into the world of luxury against firmly established players like Mercedes-Benz. One way for the company to poke its head above the high-class fray is by taking things further, and in the case of the Panamera Exclusive Series at the Los Angeles Auto Show, it means pushing grandeur to extreme levels.
Coming in at an absolutely eye-watering $263,900, plus $995 destination, the Panamera Exclusive starts its life as the already sumptuous Panamera Turbo S Executive with a 4.8-liter, twin-turbo V8 making 570 horsepower on an extended wheelbase. To help justify the extra $63,000 for the Exclusive, though, the model gets 20-inch black Sport Classic wheels and an interior in swaddled in Nappa leather with dark walnut and piano black trim. Rear passengers also get 10.1-inch touchscreens mounted on the back of the front seats. A set of fitted Poltrana Frau leather luggage is included with each one, as well.
The luxurious sedan earns it Exclusive moniker because just 100 of them are being made worldwide. Scroll down to read about Porsche's ultimate limousine.
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
