Up
for auction is this beautiful 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo with 5-Speed 2.5L 16 valve
engine with 84,920 original miles and high gloss Pearl While paint with tan and
black interior. I
purchased the vehicle from the original owner in October 2011, whom cared for
it for the previous 24 years and 79,900 miles.
The previous owner had performed
extensive maintenance on the vehicle and it has had the following work
completed: July 2008 (68,000 miles) the entire engine was removed and rebuilt
with new crankshaft, timing belt, connecting rods and rod bearing set, piston
ring set, fuel injectors and all injector seals/o-rings, clutch assembly
(clutch and slave cylinder), frequency valve, turbo cutoff valve, water pump
and hoses, and clamps, all belts, control arm bushing, engine mount, tension
roller, tension gear, engine gasket set, exhaust manifold gasket, exhaust seal
ring, hatch switch, shift level, heater control valve and receiver/dryer distributor
cap, ignition rotor and ignition dust cover.
(See receipts for $7,113.82 for all details). The
car was repainted in 2010 in a high gloss Pearl White and had a graphic “turbo”
script design applied to the right front fender (see photos) and a new Alpine
stereo receiver/CD player with iPod/USB connector installed. The
previous owner reported to following two incidents/issues: 1) 10/07/2010 - Rear hatch windshield was broken and insurance company replaced the glass with no other damage to car. 2) 04/24/2011 - Construction on main road was being done and the
city didn't properly cove the hole and the vehicle left front wheel hit the
hole resulting in a broken control arm. Both control arms have been
replaced and alignment performed. (See receipts for $891.17 and $1,082.52
respectively). As the second owner of the vehicle, the vehicle has been garage kept and I have had the throttle body replaced, new belts, radiator hoses, front sway bar bushings, new rear deck carpeting, and new Dunlop Direzza tires (205/55R16 front and 225/50R16 rear) installed with new color Porsche emblem center wheel caps. The maintenance and new tire installation were performed at 84,871 miles, and the tires have less than 50 miles on them, not a typo, they are new with under 50 miles on them. The car runs and drives great and is a real attention getter. The driver’s seat shows signs of wear and has some small cuts (see pictures) and there is a small paint chip on the left rear quarter panel behind the left rear tire (see pictures). The vehicle has a Viper anti-theft alarm system and has key fob activated lock, unlock and disarm features and if attempts are made to shake and/or enter vehicle when activated, the starter is deactivated and can be reset with a button on the key fob. The car also has the SEKURIT vehicle glass etching which includes the VIN number being etched on the glass (see pictures) and the vehicle also comes with a grey microfiber cloth car cover and four OC142 Mahle oil filters. The car is offered as is with no warranty. A
$1000 deposit on PayPal is required within 48 hours of

Seller reserves the right to cancel the auction at any time due to local sale of the vehicle as it is also being advertised in the Upstate New York area concurrently with this eBay auction.

Watch onboard video of the Porsche 918 Spyder's record 'Ring lap
Tue, 10 Sep 2013"Pics or it didn't happen!" You could almost hear the Internet shouting this when news started to trickle in about a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap by the new Porsche 918 Spyder. Well, after an official press release, which we ran earlier today, we have your "pics." Moving pics, to be more exact. Porsche has released on-board footage of the 6:57 lap.
The video, which runs about eight-and-a-half minutes, and shows the 918 from inside the car on a flying lap of the German track. Perhaps what's remarkable is just how undramatic it all looks. Sure, there's some sawing at the wheel from test driver Marc Lieb (one of three testers, including legendary rally king Walter Röhrl), but he makes wrangling the Martini-liveried 918 look kind of easy.
Take a look down below for the full, on-board video, and then click over and read our initial write-up from earlier this morning and take a glance at the more stylized video that Porsche originally posted.
Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.
Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?
Mon, Feb 27 2017We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
