European "special Wishes" Program 930s Imported To Us And Carb Qualified For Ca on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
You are bidding on a unique factory slope nose 930 made in 1983. The car is a European 930S - this car has never been available for sale new in the US. A US market version of this car first shipped to the U.S. in 1986. This car was legally imported to the U.S. - it is not a grey market car. When I moved the car to California, it was qualified and certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for registration in California where it has been registered since 2000. Those who have dealt with CARB know it is a challenge to get them to certify a not-made-for-California car. The first thing you notice is the car's steel front fenders do not have the US production break vents on the top of the fenders. The car's nose came from the factory smooth like a Ferrari. The car is original and was produced on the Special Wishes production line in Germany and has many factory made custom "add ons" such as burl wood interior door pulls with inlaid Porsche crests, unique center console, etc. The car has 37,266 original miles and runs great. I have owned the car since 2000 and driven it about 4000 miles total. It spends most its time parked in a secured and temp controlled garage. After I purchased the car in 2000 at about 30,000 miles, I had Powerhaus Porsche in Phoenix go through the engine/transaxle and replace anything on the motor that was looking aged or tired. It was kept stock with the exception of factory design updates such as the timing chain tensioner system, etc. I have all receipts from the work totaling over $15,000. Powerhaus also installed a custom build oversized intercooler. The car has been maintained by BlackForest Porsche in San Diego for the last 14 years. They have preemptively replaced various ignition parts, fuel filters, injectors, etc, that were aging out. I have receipts and work orders for all. Mechanically the car is excellent. The interior of the car is beautiful and shows no wear. The exterior is very good but the paint is thin in spots from all the polishing the car has received. You probably cannot see any light spots in the pictures, but you can in bright direct sunlight. The car is sold as is. It is so unique and fun to drive I hesitate to sell it. The turbo makes this car a fun drive and it turns a lot of heads. It was on the cover of the SD Region Porsche Club magazine Windblown Witness in 2006. The correct VIN is WP0ZZZ93ZDS000695. EBay would not accept the VIN because it is a European manufactured car not originally destined for the U.S. Shipping is the buyers responsibility. I will assist in loading the car after payment has cleared. It comes with a few extra Porsche parts (including the original 930S three spoke steering wheel in perfect condition) I have acquired over the years, plus four 17" C-2 chrome rims with tires and spacers to fit the 930. |

Porsche to develop new line of engines for next Panamera
Sat, 22 Mar 2014When the second generation of the four-door Porsche Panamera launches, it will likely be riding a new platform, complete with an all-new family of V6 and V8 engines, according to a report coming out of the UK.
Autocar reports that the so-called MSB platform will likely underpin the Panamera, and it could be shared with Bentley, provided the Volkswagen-owned, British-built brand commits to the architecture. As for the engines, it's reported that they'll have a sportier character than the V6s and V8s being built for Volkswagen and Audi's vehicles.
"Porsche will have its own new V8 that will be common to the new MSB platform," Porsche's chief engineer, Wolfgang Hatz, said. "It's a family for the next 10 years of cars." Whether the V8 and V6 will be used outside of the Panamera line, though, remains unclear. There's also no mention of what place turbocharging would have with the new engines.
Porsche 911 Targa leaks out ahead of Detroit debut
Mon, 13 Jan 2014With the doors of Cobo Center opening for the 2014 Detroit Auto Show this morning, Porsche is set to reveal its new 911 Targa in a matter of hours. But before it gets the chance, the first batch of images have already leaked out, courtesy of Chinese car site autohome.com.cn.
As expected, the new Targa appears to ditch the complex sliding glass roof panels that adorned recent versions of the semi-convertible 911 in favor of a more back-to-basics approach. An entirely removable roof panel opens up the sky, backed by a metallic B-pillar hoop in front of a large curved-glass rear window.
We'll have to wait just a little longer for the full scope of images and all the official details, but we're expecting the new Targa to carry most of the same technical specifications as the 991 on which it's based. Watch this space for more.
Porsche calling in two Cayennes
Sun, Jan 4 2015We regularly see recalls addressing all manner of problems (or potential problems) affecting any number of vehicles: hundreds, thousands, even millions. Some are too small to bother reporting, but once in a while one comes along that's so ridiculously small that we couldn't pass it over. Like this latest one from Porsche. "Due to a manufacturing error," says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in the notice below, "the suspension alignment on the front and rear axles may not have been performed correctly and the screw connections of the camber, toe and caster may not have been tightened with the specified torque." The recall affects the 2015 Cayenne... but just how many of them, you ask? Two. Not two hundred, not two thousand, but two: one Cayenne Diesel and one Cayenne S, manufactured between November 26 and... November 27, 2014. That very well might make this the most methodically German recall in the history of recalls. If you happen to be the owner of one of those two vehicles, expect to hear from Porsche with instructions to bring your Cayenne in to have the suspension re-aligned and the screws tightened. RECALL Subject : Front and Rear Alignment may be Incorrect Report Receipt Date: DEC 29, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V824000 Component(s): SUSPENSION Potential Number of Units Affected: 2 Manufacturer: Porsche Cars North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (Porsche) is recalling certain model year 2015 Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S vehicles manufactured November 26, 2014, to November 27, 2014. Due to a manufacturing error, the suspension alignment on the front and rear axles may not have been performed correctly and the screw connections of the camber, toe and caster may not have been tightened with the specified torque. CONSEQUENCE: If the suspension alignment was incorrectly performed, vehicle handling could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Porsche will notify owners, and dealers will perform a front and rear suspension alignment, and check the screw connections for the proper torque, retightening as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification date. Owners may contact Porsche customer service at 1-800-767-7243. Porsche's number for this recall is AF04. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
