1989 Porsche 928gt Gt S4 Gts 911 928 993 on 2040-cars
Austin, Texas, United States
For Sale is my prized 1989 Porsche 928GT. As I am sure you are aware the 928GT is one of the rarest Porshces to grace our shores. In 1989 and 1990 it is estimated that only 50 were imported. I have had the pleasure of owning two. This is a low mileage no excuses example with only 90k original miles and a very extensive and thorough service history and records. All of the 928 GT cars were manual transmission with special gearbox ratios to perfectly transfer power from the 330hp double overhead cam V8. It is truly a joy to drive and everything works as it should. The 928GT has many upgrades from the S4 including a new electronic limited slip, different tuning and camshafts, better gearbox and all of the upgrades from the club sport edition.This particular machine has had all of its service intervals complied with and it is ready for the road. The exterior of the car is very very clean. It is professionally detailed every month and you will not be able to find a spec of dirt anywhere. I have taken pictures of the door gaps and such so that you can see the attention to detail. The paint shines perfectly in full sun with no issues. the body work is nearly perfect with some slight imperfections in one rear fender well from some rock chips. there are also a couple small waves in the urethane bumpers in the corners. I could not get these imperfections to show up in my pictures. The interior is fantastic and beautiful black leather. The seats are firm and the electrics work well. The dash and gauge pod are nearly perfect. The seats carpet and floor mats are in great shape as well with no imperfections to report. The sunroof works well and the headliner and steering wheel are also in great shape. The pictures represent the car very well. I haven't seen a nicer 928 that is unrestored. The tool set is nearly complete and the the rear hatch includes the double mat carpet and the privacy shade as well as rear sunshades and rear AC. The engine bay is clean as a whistle and it has had extensive work done, including maroon powder coat on the valve covers and intake manifold. All required maintenance has been done including a new clutch at 80k miles and a new timing chain and regular tension checks. The transmission shifts flawlessly and the engine purrs at all RPMs. The suspension is tight and firm with recent dampers and an aftermarket sway bar. The tires and wheels are in good shape with the tires being around 4/32nds of tread depth. Brake pads are recent as well and a high performance racing compound. This car holds a clear Texas title although there was some repair history back in the late 90s. I do not have any repair information from that time but I can say that any repairs done to the car were done correctly and I have thoroughly inspected the machine in every nook and cranny. This car is stunning and it is the nicest 928 I have ever owned despite the blemish on its history. I have considered this in the pricing and I will allow some lucky buyer to enjoy owning a GT for a fraction of the normal GT prices. Bid with confidence and review my feedback. I am a car enthusiast and professional driver,racer,and instructor. This is a rare opportunity to own a 928GT and you will be thrilled with the condition of the car and enjoy every drive. Call me with questions, the car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Trades could be considered as well, but all must be approved prior to auction end.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
Porsche 918 Spyder pre-production version in all its almost-done glory
Sun, 18 Aug 2013Porsche continues the long tease of its upcoming 918 Spyder, with the latest instantiation here at the Pebble Beach Concours, with the car presented in pre-production form to the throngs on the golf course.
Just a few days ago Porsche dropped an image of the car on its official Twitter feed. True to that leak, this 918 looks damn near what we expect the full customer version to be when it is officially debuted in Frankfurt. The neon-green brake calipers are items new to this version of the 918, and seem to be an identical color to those found on the Panamera S E-Hybrid.
When it shows up as a drivable piece, expect the Porsche supercar, with its gasoline-electric drivetrain, to be pretty insane. Horsepower in excess of 800 ponies will be available with a toe-tap, while the price of entry is expected to come within shouting distance of $850,000. A good deal for Porsche to bring the thing to Pebble then, where buyers with that kind of cash are think on the ground (and most likely wearing sherbet-colored trousers).
NHTSA closes probe into 2011 Porsche 911 coolant leaks
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it will end its investigation into rapid coolant loss in 24,635 Porsche 911s built between 2001 and 2011. The models affected included the standard 911, GT2, GT3 and Turbo, as well as their variants (GT2 RS, GT3 RS and Turbo S).
NHTSA was investigating for "rapid coolant loss caused by coolant pipe-fitting failure, allegedly resulting in vehicle disablement and/or loss of vehicle control due to reduced traction for the affected vehicle or following traffic," according to the regulators website. "Most of the leak complaints did not appear to involve complete separation of the fittings and many were detected when the vehicle was parked," said NHTSA's statement.
There were 63 complaints and 336 warranty claims, although the investigation was initiated after ten complaints from customers. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries attributed to rapid coolant loss.
