1987 Porsche 944 Turbo survivor! I purchased this car a few months ago after having seen it sitting in a used car dealers parking lot languishing in the sun. The car runs and drives beautifully and appears to have been well maintained by a Porsche Club of America member. The car has high mileage at 182,077 miles and the speedometer is not working so I am assuming the actual mileage may be higher. However, the car comes with many service records and seems to have had much work done over the years. This is an unmolested example of an appreciating classic that is both fast and fun to drive with excellent performance, handling and brakes.

I am selling this car at NO RESERVE!

I thank everyone for the contacts. Here are some of the cosmetic issues with the car. The paint on the nose has a consistent cracking pattern to it almost like there is some paint protection shield breaking down or it may be the paint itself. The interior has some issues like ONE small dash crack above the glove box, some cracks to the center console cover and some wear to the shift knob. The seats have some seams separating as well. However, the car has a wonderful overall original patina that I would encourage the next owner to keep as originality becomes more important in these cars

VW to pay $1B in settlement with US government over V6 diesels

Tue, Dec 20 2016

Volkswagen and the US government have come to a settlement for the civil claims against the automaker's 3.0-liter, diesel V6s. Over 83,000 V6 TDI-powered models are currently prowling US roads in violation of emissions laws. The settlement allows VW to recall over 75 percent of its cheating V6 diesels – about 63,000 units – and bring them into compliance. These represent newer VW Touaregs, Audi A6, A7, A8, Q5, and Q7s, and Porsche Cayennes built between 2013 and 2016. According to the company, the recall will bring these so-called Generation Two engines up to emissions specs, provided the EPA and CARB okay the modifications. Should the regulators say no to VW's tweaks, the company will buy back or terminate leases with the affected owners. For older V6 TDIs built between 2009 and 2012, Volkswagen will do broadly the same thing, only in reverse. It will lead with buy backs of older Touaregs and Q7s – the only vehicles the company sold with the earlier engines – but could offer fixes if EPA/CARB give the okay. As part of its agreement over the emissions-cheating V6s, Volkswagen will contribute $225 million to the "environmental remediation trust" it established as part of its settlement over cheating 2.0-liter TDIs. VW is also on the hook for $25 million with CARB, bringing the total for the six-cylinder part of its emissions cheating scandal to around $1 billion, Automotive News reports. This initial agreement still needs approval from US District Court Judge Charles Breyer. Related Video:

The entire Porsche 911 history in under 90 seconds

Fri, Feb 12 2016

Over more than 50 years Porsche has taken a terrible idea - hanging an engine behind the rear wheels so that the car will try to go backwards through corners - and turned it into an automotive icon. One way that happened was keeping that unmistakable shape. As you'll see in the video above, the proportions are true to the original even with the relatively radical changes with recent models. The animation includes price and power figures, and even has the model designations, so you can keep up in conversation when a Porschephile starts rambling about random numbers.

Top Gear drag races VW Golf R against McLaren 675LT and Porsche 911

Thu, Apr 7 2016

Top Gear's latest quarter-mile drag race in the collects three very different performance vehicles: the 296-horsepower Volkswagen Golf R, 424-hp Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, and 666-hp McLaren 675LT. While each of these cars sit near the top of their segment, they each come from totally different rungs of the sports car price ladder. Spoiler alert, the Golf R doesn't win. But the final results illustrate the diminishing returns of price and performance. For example, the McLaren is only about a second quicker than the Porsche to 60 miles per hour, but the 675LT costs over 2.5 times more that the GTS. Related Video:
