This 928 S4 is hands down a fun car to drive and makes me smile every time I drive her.  She starts effortlessly and produces that strong sounding rumble letting you know that you got a 316hp 5.0L V8 sitting under the hood.  The automatic transmission goes through all the gears and the suspension feels tight.  It accelerates, shifts, and stops just like it should.  The paint and body is in decent shape, but we repainted the sunroof and front bumper due to the clear coat flaking off.  This car looks good considering it is 26 years old.  It also has that rare GTS style rear bumper panel with the reflective strip that runs between the tail lights.  Haven't seen too many like that, but it does make it stand out from all the other S4s.  Very sexy looking car.

This car was recently gone through by our Porsche 928 technician/specialist.  Some of the recent work done to this car includes:

Speedometer serviced and tested by a speedo calibration service shop
Smog pump belt
New front and rear Velozza tires
New CD/radio unit
New battery
Horn repaired
Passenger side taillight repaired
Sunroof and front bumper painted
All 4 wheels painted

The car does have some flaws, so please check out the photos.  The dash has some cracks and the driver seat has some tears.  The passenger seat is actually pretty decent.  There are a few stone chips (as expected) on the front.  There may be little scratches or tiny dents here and there, but nothing major.  The AC does not work.  The passenger side fog light plastic lens has a crack in it, but the light still works.  Original spare tire and tools are missing.

The description above was done to the best of my ability, however, with all pre-owned vehicles, the condition of any vehicle is subjective to the viewer.  We recommend that any potential buyer to come out and inspect the vehicle themselves or reach out to us with any questions.  Shop open Mon-Fri (9am-5pm) Sat by appointment only.  The mileage represents the actual miles when the car was placed on eBay.  The vehicle may accrue a few more miles from moving around.  If you have any questions or would like more information call the shop at (717)838-5660 or if you are a texter (717)842-0177.  EBay messages work too.

Condition Disclaimer
Vehicle is sold as is - with no warranties or guaranties expressed or implied.

We reserve the right to end any auction early should we deem it necessary.  However this is extremely rare and has never happened on my watch, but we thought you should know.  It's possible.

The balance of the purchase price MUST be paid for by cash in person, cashier's check (like you would get from most banks & credit unions), or bank wire transfer.  We do not accept personal checks, credit cards, Paypal, drafts, or escrow services.  We will work very hard to make the process go smoothly and quickly for you.  If you arrive to pick up your vehicle and do not have an acceptable form of payment you will be denied delivery of the vehicle until an acceptable form of payment is received.  These are the only forms of payment that we accept, so if this is not acceptable to you then please do not bid.  Final payment must be made within 7 days of the close of the auction.  There are no refunds or cancellations once payment has been made as all sales are final on all eBay related transactions.  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Jay Leno puts carbon fiber wheels to the test on a Porsche 911 GT3 RS

Thu, 04 Sep 2014

Jay Leno's Garage usually focuses on looking at cars new and old, speaking to their owners and then Jay taking a drive to see what he thinks. However, Leno throws his usual shtick to the curb this week to do a full product test of the carbon fiber wheels from a company called Carbon Revolution. If you're not interested in hearing about wheels for 18 minutes, don't worry. They get mounted on a Porsche and are tested back-to-back with stock wheels, and Leno takes the 911 for a track test, too.
While carbon-fiber wheels aren't exactly a new idea, Carbon Revolution's goal is to create a lightweight, one-piece product that can be mass produced. The company even claims that it already has a deal with an OEM automaker to offer them on a vehicle in a few years. The key to the technology is that it doesn't need an expensive autoclave to be made.
In the meantime, the company's carbon fiber wheels are available as an aftermarket option for about $15,000 a set, according to the video. They weigh in at about 15.5 pounds each and offer OEM-levels of stiffness, so they could cut some unsprung mass off of a performance car. Watch here as Jay and his mechanic Bernard lap Willow Springs and give their feedback about what they think of this cutting-edge technology.

Automakers paying Chinese dealers for lower-than-expected sales

Sat, Jan 10 2015

The Chinese dealers vs. foreign manufacturers story won't quit. It began with a story on the struggles faced by FAW-Toyota joint venture dealers, with supposedly 95 percent of the showrooms losing money, and 10 percent of them doing so poorly that they'd have to exit the business. The problem is mandated sales targets, most set when the country's economy was racing. Now that things have slowed, China's dealers are swimming in unsold cars and the costs to keep them. In the case of FAW-Toyota, dealers asked Toyota to hand over 2.2 billion yuan ($355 million) to help address the situation. That was followed by a report noting the issues that Honda, BMW, and Nissan dealers are having with the same issue, revealing that the Chinese Automobile Dealers Association (CADA) had taken the highly unusual step of writing to the Chinese government to complain. Now Reuters reports that CADA is not only pressing its case even harder, it's being open about it: it announced that BMW agreed to pay dealers 5.1 billion yuan ($820 million) to alleviate poor profits last year. Unnamed sources said Audi has thrown 2 billion yuan into the kitty for subsidies, and Daimler has contributed "about 1 billion yuan" to its dealers. The battle isn't just about 2014, but how business will be run in 2015 as well: Chinese Porsche dealers have requested the automaker lower its 2015 target of 64,000 cars, which would be a 40-percent increase on its 2014 sales of 46,931 vehicles. One analyst called it "shocking" that the CADA has taken its fight public, while CADA comments continue to imply that dealers have been railroaded to the cliff's edge without recourse. "Due to the difference in status," it's deputy secretary said, "individual dealers are not willing to, or don't dare to, talk frankly with the carmakers...." Both parties need one another, so they'll figure out a way to make it work – but that could mean acknowledging the Chinese market is behaving more like a mature one, not an emerging one.

Porsche Cayman gets a new face

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

We've already seen photos of the facelifted Porsche Boxster out testing, but we're now seeing these same changes making their way onto the hardtop Cayman coupe. Cosmetically, the next round of Porsche's smallest sports cars isn't vastly different, with redesigned headlamps, LED running lights (like its big brother, the 911), and new taillamps that actually aren't visible on the prototype seen here.
The big news for the updated Boxster/Cayman range is the long-rumored four-cylinder engine. Recent reports suggest we could see four-pots with displacements of 1.6, 2.0, or 2.5 liters, and with output ratings as high as 360 horsepower. Of course, these new four-cylinder mills would be both turbocharged and direct-injected.
It's unclear whether or not the six-cylinder engine range will also be updated when this new Cayman comes to market. In any case, we expect to see it bow in the relatively near future. Stay tuned.
