This is a 1987 Porsche 944 base coupe with an automatic transmission.  I will attempt to describe everything as accurately as possible, but please, if you have any questions email me and I will get back to you as quickly as possible.  First things first, I have only owned the car about 3 weeks, it was a bit of a "garage" find if you will.  When I bought the vehicle it was not running, it would turn over but that was about it.  I have gone through most everything on the engine cleaning and replacing parts as I have come across them.  The following is what has been replaced, starter, distributor, plug wires, spark plugs, fuel pump, fuel filter, dme relay, vacumn hoses, speed and reference sensor, front sway bar bushings, and the AFM has been refurbished.  The good news is that all those parts have gotten the car running and back on the road again, unfortunately there still seems to be a slight problem with the idle, occasionally the rpms will drop and the car will shut off.  I have not had this happen while driving, only on initial start up before the car is warmed up, I have not had any issues once the car is warm.  The only other issue mechanically that I am aware of is there seems to be a very slight leak somewhere in the power steering system, it has to sit for a few days to actually notice a wet spot on the ground but if you look under the car you can see some fluid on and around the pump.  The car still drives and handles really well so it is probably just a seal somewhere or else it would not be working.  All other flaws to the car are cosmetic, it does not have perfect paint or a perfectly straight body, while there is no rust or major damage to the vehicle it does have dings, scratches, and paint chips that could be expected of a 26 year old vehicle.  I will try to get the best shots possible to show the areas I am talking about.  Don't get me wrong, this is still a great looking car and I still get many looks and compliments driving around town.  The interior is in pretty good shape with the exception of the drivers seat, the bottom of it will need to be replaced or reupholstered.  The dash has the normal crack in it and the odometer has quit working which is pretty common in this model vehicle.  The car does has an aftermarket head unit, power windows, power doorlocks, power sunroof, and power seat for the drivers side.  The sunroof is missing the latches that secure it to the drive mechanism, these can be found online fairly cheaply.  The tires on the car seem to be fairly new, they have lots of tread left on them. 

Again, I think I have described the car to the best of my ability, I will let the pictures tell the rest of the story.  The car has been a blast to drive for the short period of time that I have owned it, please email with any questions. I do have the title in hand and ready to go.

This car is a used car, so it is being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  Please understand that you are not buying a perfect car,, the price is reflective of that, it still needs some work to be perfect.

I will do my best to accommodate whatever shipping company the buyer chooses to use, I will not be responsible for shipping this vehicle, that is up to you.

Supercar 'Holy Trinity' raced at the track, drag strip, and to 186 mph

Thu, Dec 3 2015

There was a time when we weren't sure if we'd ever get the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and Porsche 918 Spyder on the track together. Now, we've have a multi-part series dissecting how each supercar approaches all kinds of go-fast tasks. Supercar Driver (SCD) looks at their performances around the track, on the drag strip, and on a runway. SCD didn't get any help from the automakers, it used three cars all owned by one British gentleman, Paul Bailey. The first video has British Touring Car Championship driver Mat Jackson running all three around Silverstone. The second video takes the coupes to Santa Pod Raceway to run the quarter-mile. The third video runs them out to Bruntingthorpe Airfield for a drag race to 300 kilometers per hour (186 mph). We found that latter video especially interesting because SCD shows a graph of how fast each car hit speed marks, and it's interesting to see where the winner made up all of its time and the where the third-place getter lost its time. Nota bene, the McLaren is using its fly-paper sticky Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tires. You'll find the first video in the series above, the second two videos below. If you still haven't had enough, then check out the Hyper 5 three-part series by Alejandro Solomon filmed at California's Thermal Raceway, starting with the Holy Trinity and adding the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport and Pagani Huayra. Chris Harris also did fantastic work around Portimao with the help of Marino Franchitti and Tiff Needell, with assistance from the factories. This content is hosted by a third party.

Porsche Cayenne, Panamera production halted by flooding

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

If you recently ordered a Porsche Cayenne or a Panamera, delivery may take a little longer than originally expected. Automotive News reports that production of both models has been temporarily halted at the Porsche assembly plant in Leipzig, Germany as the result of supply shortages caused by flooding in the nearby Czech Republic. The reason for the stoppage is that the body of the Cayenne - currently Porsche's best-selling model - is produced at a Volkswagen plant in the Czech city of Bratislava and shipped by train to Leipzig.
The report does not indicate why Panamera production has been stopped - that the five-door's body is made at a separate location in Hanover, Germany. However pre-assembly will continue on these models. At full capacity, the Leipzig plant can produce about 450 vehicles per day, and it isn't clear how long this weather-related stoppage will last.

Magnus Walker and Alex Ross stop by Leno's garage with their 997 GT2

Mon, Feb 9 2015

The market is littered with Porsche 911 tuners, with names like 9ff, Gemballa and TechArt leading the field. Seldom do any two ever collaborate on a joint project, but that's just the kind of match that was made at Jay Leno's Garage. That's where Alex Ross of SharkWerks and restomodder Magnus Walker first met, sparking a collaboration that yielded the car you see here. And fittingly, they've brought it back to the garage to show off what resulted. Though Walker usually deals with older Elfens, this time he applied his eye for style on a more contemporary 2008 997 GT2, decking it out with grey stripes, orange bumpers, gold wheels and decals and a tartan-upholstered interior. He left the mechanical bits to Ross and company, who dropped the suspension and increased output to 650 horsepower at the wheels (775 at the crank), surpassing the stock GT2 and even the later GT2 RS. The result is pretty hard-core and old-school, but you'll want to watch the video above to see for yourself.
