1987 944 2.5L N/A. 145,000 miles.  This is the best running car i have ever owned. it doesn't leak a drop of anything. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it to California and back. Actually I just did a 500 mile mountain run in it a couple weeks ago.  Not one hiccup.  And unlike most 944's this car has NEVER been rebuilt due to water pump/timing belt neglect. It has been serviced professionally by Jim Strutherland at JTS Motorsports since I have owned it and the owner before me had it serviced at Hendrick Porsche the entire time he owned it. Had it painted about a year ago. this car handles like a dream.  You wont find a better 944 out there.  only reason Im selling is Im looking for something RHD and RWD.  I'm willing to trade and can put cash on top. 

Good -

Fresh Paint last January
Tires on both wheels still have 90% life left in them.
Full Koni Suspention - $7k
Aftermarket Swaybars - $3k
Genuine Porsche Clutch - $3k - Has a little over 10k miles on it. 
Boxer turbo wheels are on it now, you will get the originals with it too
Momo Steering wheel - $350 -  original one goes with it too
All new steering parts, control arms, etc
full leather interior in great shape with some seat wear- EXTREMELY rare
Countless parts have been replaced around the car and under the hood with genuine Porsche parts.
i know there's more im forgetting.

Bad - 
No A/C. Put a main seal in it but it still leaks some. lasted about a month and a half when i charged it last summer.
Small bad place in drivers seat from getting in and out.
Rip in passenger seat where your butt sits.
rear seat has 2 small rips. see pics
cracks in dash.
the mount that holds the hazard light switch is broken. - $40 for the new piece from Porsche.  still has the switch and it still works fine, just a small crack.

i have 90% of the reciepts for the work done. ive lost a few but ill try and find them if you really want them. i will be more than happy to meet you somewhere to get an evaluation on it before you buy if you like.  

im not afraid of low ballers so go for it.  who knows i might just accept ur offer!

im also willing to trade for a RWD RHD car.  ill put up cash if its nice enough.

2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]

Thu, 22 May 2014

You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
