1985.5 Porsche 944 base model, non turbo, paired with a NICE set of Fuchs 951 / 911 wheels.  I have owned this car for almost one decade and drove this car all around until it got bumped in the back.  Car was no garage queen.  This car has always gotten from point A to point B and everywhere else I've needed to stop in between.  Unfortunately I need to sell this car due to job relocation.  

This car starts and runs but will need a battery. The one in it is not mine.

 The odometer reads 178,658 miles, however; Porsche odometers are known to not always be reliable.  This one was intermittent.  Exterior color is grey.  The paint shows her age as it is faded and worn off the front.  Black leather interior. There is all the normal wear of 30 year old car.

  Engine starts and runs well.  Transaxle is good and it shifts smooth and tight, clutch is good, exhaust good. Front end and ball joints in good condition as well.  The power windows work well, as do adjustable side mirrors.  New speakers installed, sound system replaced with AM/FM radio & CD player.  They work well, loud.  Faceplate for system is in center console along with a remote control.  Door locks work but passenger side key does not.   AC no longer works, heat does. 
Fuchs wheels are straight and true, without curb rash, chips, or dents; as shown in photos.  Front wheels are 7" wide, rear are 8" wide.  Tires are great with most --if not all tread still there.  Headlights occasionally stick up in the on position, shown in photos.  The sunroof gear may be going.  I last used it a few years back and had some trouble closing it so I didn't bother to use it again and risk the too common Porsche sunroof leak.

A few years ago I found myself parked alongside other 944s and took note that my car sat significantly lower than all of the others.  Other drivers suggested it could be a European model, however, I have no idea.  It was only guessed by the other drivers.  I have yet to figure out why it does. 

Please feel free to contact with any questions or if you like to see the car.

Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English

Wed, Dec 14 2016

The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German – and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.

Porsche Supercup racer dies in crash in Australia

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

Even with great strides made towards increasing the safety of motor racing, fundamentally it's still a dangerous sport. And now it has claimed another life.
That life belonged to one Sean Edwards, an accomplished GT racing driver. Edwards was killed at Queensland Raceway in Australia, riding shotgun in a Porsche 996 GT3 while acting as instructor. The driver was airlifted to hospital with critical injuries. Sean Edwards was 26.
The son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards (whose car he drove in the filming of Rush), Sean won the European GT3 Championship in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to repeat victories at the 24 Hours of Dubai as well as this year's Nürburgring 24 Hours. Edwards had been competing in the Porsche Supercup, whose standings he currently leads with just two rounds to go, and could be crowned champion posthumously.
