1987 Porsche 928 S4 - 5 Speed - Lsd - Rare on 2040-cars
Burlington, Ontario, Canada
|
Up for sale is my very rare 1987 Porsche 928 S4, 5 speed with LSD and sport seats. It is 1 of 12 1987 928's sold in Canada with a manual transmission, limited slip differential and sport seats, 1 of 79 worldwide with these options for 1987. The car is also an early 1987 with the hinged rear wing. All 87's had the squirter block, knock sensors etc., great for Supercharging and the motor is ready.
I'm the third owner of the car, I purchased it from the second owner who purchased it from his neighbor after he passed away in 2004. The car has been meticulously cared for since day 1, including all service records to new, every tank of gas recorded in a little log book, along with dates that it went into winter storage etc. The car is in showroom condition from head to toe. The interior has been so well cared for by each owner that there is no excessive wear, even on the seat bolsters. The wheels are original anodized finish with new Potenza RE-11's. This past winter I refreshed the motor from top to bottom, new timing belt, water pump, seals, motor mounts etc. While the motor was apart I had everything professionally powder coated. Brand new brakes all around as well. And the list goes on, far too much to list here. The car is stock except for the following: -Cat delete H-pipe -Rear Muffler Bypass -Powersport drilled and slotted brake rotors -Audi timing belt tensioner (maintenance free) -Blaupunkt BT 420 head unit -Raised center arm rest cover -Clear bra on hood and top of front bumper (just installed in June) Also included are the following stock parts: -Stock cat with original o2 sensor -Rear muffler -Air pump -Original timing belt tensioner -Stock audio amplifier -Stock center armrest lid The car is 100% complete with the original tool kit, wheel locks, belts, flat tire bag, spare tire & jack, sunroof crank, all manuals and warranty book etc. Even the original salesman's business card. The first owner had the bumpers and sides of the car painted (1997) due to light scratches/dings from use. To be honest you can hardly tell, many people ask me if the paint is original since it looks so good. I just gave it some clay and wax and it looks spectacular. This car could sit in any showroom and feel right at home.Please message me for more info, I have hundreds of pictures of the work I have done, clean car fax in hand, a detailed blog during my owner ship, scans of the log book etc. You will not find another 87 5spd in this condition or with the incredibly detailed history. Values are starting to climb on pristine examples as they are getting harder to find. US buyers, this car is admissible to the US, and will be delivered with the required dealer letter from Porsche. For more information please contact your local DMV and or Customs Agency. I can deliver the car to the Buffalo border if necessary. PPI's welcomed, at buyers expense. FYI the car has 187xxx km's or 117xxx k miles on the clock. Thanks for looking |

Porsche reveals new 911 Turbo Cabriolets, starting from $160,700*
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Porsche has come a long way from the days when its entire model line revolved essentially around the 911, but its prototypical rear-engined sports car is still what it's known for best, and still keeps the German automaker pretty busy. With a seemingly endless array of variations on the theme, the 911s just keep on coming until a new generation arrives and then it starts all over again. And what we have here is the new king of the hill (for now, anyway).
Set to debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show a little less than two months from now are the new Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolets. And no, that's not a typo: that's cabriolets, plural, because what you're looking at are two new models. First up is the 911 Turbo Cabriolet, whose 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six develops 520 horsepower, driving the droptop to 60 miles per hour in 3.3 seconds. That's Porsche's claim, and we have a feeling it's a bit conservative. But if that's still not enough, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet adds an extra 40 hp for a total of 560 to drop the benchmark acceleration run down to 3.1 seconds.
That makes the new topless Turbos 30 horses stronger and 0.2 seconds quicker than the respective models they replace, but the weight penalty involved with replacing a fixed roof with a folding one (and the necessary structural reinforcement) does make the new 911 Turbo Cabs a smidgen more lethargic than their contemporary coupe counterparts, which run the gauntlet in 3.2 and 2.9 seconds in standard Turbo and upgraded Turbo S specs, respectively. They only lose a single tick on the top speed, though, which clocks in at a follicle-tickling 195 mph in either spec. Otherwise the specifications are as identical as you might expect.
2014 Porsche Cayman S
Thu, 29 Aug 2013Second Fiddle Moves To First Chair
In the interest of full disclosure and a bit of bloodletting, allow me to admit that while I've always coveted the Porsche Boxster and its hard-hatted Cayman cousin, I've never really warmed to them visually. They've always had a certain push-me, pull-you, can't-decide-which-way-they're-going aesthetic that I've never really wrapped my head around. Porsche achieved the same thing with the original 550 Spyder's overturned bathtub bodyshell that would come to inspire the Boxster, but somehow that classic's even more symmetrical nature works for me. Fast-forward to this third generation, and at least for this enthusiast, Porsche's manchild has well and truly come of age as a design.
It's all there - a piercing stare thanks to squircle headlamps inspired by the 918 Spyder hypercar, newfound directional thrust afforded by a longer wheelbase and elongated greenhouse, and muscular rear haunches with a wider stance emphasized by larger side ductwork and snubbed overhangs. The body's teardrop shape terminates with an active spoiler that integrates into a gorgeous arc with the taillamps like a budding ducktail nod to 1973 911 Carrera RS. Despite casting a longer shadow than its predecessor, the 2014 Cayman still looks tidily proportioned, smooth and wieldy, the perfect skipping stone to ricochet down a canyon river road.
2014 Porsche Panamera 4S Executive
Fri, 09 Aug 2013If the idea of a Porsche sedan (or, long hatchback) is still off-putting to you, then you might want to look away now. For 2014, the polarizing Panamera has received a midcycle refresh bringing slightly different styling, as well as adding two new models to the lineup, the S E-Hybrid and the stretched-wheelbase Executive. Having focused most of my recent trip to Germany on a First Drive of the intriguing plug-in Panamera, I also got to spend some time with the roomier Executive model.
Offered in both 4S and Turbo guise, the Panamera Executive has been stretched by almost six inches for the sole purpose of improving rear passenger space. Although it's hard to imagine anyone would willingly buy a Porsche and opt to sit in the back seat, I'd have to say that if I'm going to be chauffeured around in a car, why not make it a Porsche? For the most part, though, I'm guessing that many Panamera Executive sedans will be owned by people who want to one-up their buddy driving a stretched BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
