Today for sale I have a very exciting 1979 Porsche 928!  This is the rare 5 speed!  The 928 was Porsche's first mass produced V8!  Everywhere I go people stop to look at this amazing car!  The motor is strong!  There are receipts for almost everything that has been done to this car for the last 7 years.  The records that I have for things that have been done are:

2006 - freon added, inspection passed
2007-condenser 
2008-  chrome tips, stalks, hangers, steering wheel horn gold button, CV Boot set of 4, bought owners manual, quickpods 6.5 ABS speaker pod with recessed face, silicone oil pan gasket, upper ball joint repair, alignment, Koni performance shocks
2010- water pump, replace timing belt, fill and bleed cooling system, set ignition timing, inspection passed
2011- rebuild manual trans axle, new interstate battery, alignment, axle boot kit
2012- car repainted (used original Porsche black), new front chin spoiler, inspection passed
2013- new electric window motors (driver and passenger)
2014- new tires all around 
 
The car has Ricaro bucket racing seats, Koni adjustable shocks in the rear, front chin spoiler,  carbon fiber torque bar, after market racing steering wheel (momo?)...this car is set to run!  The transmission and clutch are strong!  All windows, lights, horn, etc work! You will not be disappointed in this car.
The thing I can think of that needs help on the car is the air conditioner.  It needs to be hooked back up and probably charged.  The only other thing is recently the odometer stopped counting miles.  I don't drive the car often so I just noticed this the other day.  

The car is also listed locally.  You are more than welcome to come take a look at the car in person.  
May consider trades

New European charging network will offer speeds up to 350 kW

Tue, Nov 29 2016

It's about to get easier to fast-charge your electric vehicle across Europe thanks to four major automakers working together in a new joint venture. BMW, Daimler (Mercedes-Benz), Ford, and the VW Group (Audi and Porsche) have all signed a Memorandum of Understanding to install about 400 DC fast charging sites in Europe. As you may know, there are different types of fast chargers, but the ones that this group is talking about installing will be able to charge an EV in much less time than other stations. That's because these chargers will offer power levels of "up to 350 kW." Compare that to what's generally considered the current gold standard, the Tesla Superchargers, which have rates of up to 145 kW and a statement not that long ago from a Ford exec that suggested that 150 kW chargers would be the new normal. Of course, the Tesla chargers use the company's proprietary connector and the new network the JV is setting up will use the CCS standard. The first new stations will go up in 2017 and those 400 sites are just the beginning. A joint statement by the JV says that EV drivers will "have access to thousands of high-powered charging points" by 2020 along highways and main roads. "The charging experience is expected to evolve to be as convenient as refueling at conventional gas stations," the companies said. While not every electric vehicle will be able to take advantage of the 350 kW charging rate, the companies involved would be silly to build the infrastructure without vehicles that can handle that kind of energy flow. The JV says it would welcome participation from other automakers and will cooperate with interested regional partners.

Volkswagen Group sales down 15% in pandemic year, but EV sales up 214%

Wed, Jan 13 2021

FRANKFURT, Germany — German automaker Volkswagen said its global sales fell 15.2% during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic but showed significant recovery toward the end of the year. The company more than tripled its sales of battery-only vehicles. Global sales for all of Volkswagen's brands amounted to 9.3 million vehicles. The fourth quarter showed a smaller decline of 5.7% and within that quarter the month of December was still further improved, showing a shortfall of only 3.2% from the same period the year before. Volkswagen said Wednesday that sales fell the most in Western Europe, by 21.6%, while China, the company's largest single market, was down 9.1% Sales of battery-only cars jumped 214% to 231,600 from 73,700 across all the company's brands. The company's electric sales leaders included the Volkswagen ID.3 compact, with 56,500, the Audi E-Tron SUV with 47,300, and the high-end Porsche Taycan with 20,000. Volkswagen said that its sales fell by less than the overall market, meaning it had slightly expanded its market share. “The COVID-19 pandemic made 2020 an extremely challenging year,” said group sales chief Christian Dahlheim. “The Volkswagen Group performed well in this environment and strengthened its market position." Volkswagen Group's brands include Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, SEAT, and Skoda as sell as truck makers MAN and Scania.

Porsche is recalling 58,881 examples of the Macan S and Turbo worldwide because of a possible leak in the low-pressure fuel line in the engine compartment. Of these, there are 21,835 affected in the US and 3,490 in Canada. According to the German automaker, this campaign is "a purely precautionary measure" because there're no reports of any accidents or injuries from the flaw. As a fix, dealers will replace the fuel line, which will take around an hour. Porsche will contact owners directly to arrange for the service. The company discovered the issue "after a precise examination of complaints," according to its statement, and corrected the problem for units in production.
