Up for auction is a very nice 1987 Porsche 944. I recently purchased this car from an individual who aspired to bring this car up to a pristine level and show it. Declining health convinced him that it would likely never happen. This car is nice but not a 10. I have driven it around lately and have had no issues with it. The car runs great, has super cold air, and handles like a dream. I do not know everything about this car other than what the gentleman told me during the purchase. The only issues I have personally noticed are: I can't get the clock or the cigarette lighter to work. May be a fuse. The seats have covers over them because they are splitting around the seams. This has to be common for this car because of the stiff leather, and it is 26 years old. I do not see any leaks under the car but there is a little oil around the motor but nothing major. I have not cleaned it but it doesn't lose any oil and looks clean. The weatherstripping around the car, namely the rear hatch, could be replaced. I did not notice any water leaks in the cabin during rain. This car has been repainted before and although it doesn't look all that bad, I would have personally not been pleased if I paid for it. The paint looks ok but the detail around some areas could have been masked (taped) a little better so there is less evidence it had been repainted. The owner said that the vehicle had never been in a serious collision and the repainted was from minor stuff and fading. There are a few small rust spots but nothing Significant. The largest example is right near the driver window and it is less than the size of a dime. The tires look ok and the radio works. This is a nice car for someone who wants a base to begin sprucing up, a nice daily driver, or for someone who has always wanted to own a Porsche. Believe me, it never gets old having people say "you drive a Porsche?" Cheesy, but true. I have the maintenance book for this car that has all service records dating back over the last 10 years. This car is being sold as is and has a lot of potential so good luck!

Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting
Sat, 11 Oct 2014
"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS looks wicked, this way comes
Thu, Dec 11 2014Those who didn't think Porsche went extreme enough with the latest 911 GT3 likely won't be disappointed when the more focused GT3 RS arrives. And as you can see from these latest spy shots, it looks like it's speeding right around the corner. Tipped to debut at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS is shaping up to be an enthusiast's dream - and with the prospect of a GT2 in doubt, could be the most hardcore Elfen in the range. Instead of the 3.8-liter flat-six in the current GT3, the new RS will pick up where the previous limited-edition GT3 RS 4.0 left off, with four naturally aspirated liters of unadulterated boxer power channeling a good 520 horses to the rear wheels. That will be a significant increase over the existing 475-hp GT3 and will match the 911 Turbo for output (if not the 560-hp Turbo S) and without any turbo lag to slow down the action, either. Whether it will keep the GT3's dual-clutch gearbox and four-wheel steering system, or ditch one or both for a more analog approach, remains to be seen, but we're holding out hope. Either way, the modifications to the bodywork ought to make the GT3 RS stand out even further and stay glued to the race track it will call home. Notice the deep front splitter scooping up snowflakes like a shovel, a massive rear wing (which may or may not be the final production version), the Turbo-spec rear end with air intakes ahead of the rear wheels, and a set of awesome-looking gills over the front wheels – all of which you can scope out in the gallery full of spy shots above.
Watch a Porsche 918 Spyder being built by hand
Sat, Jan 3 2015No music track, no dialogue, no voiceover, just a group of women and men in a very clean room in Zuffenhausen assembling the Porsche 918 Spyder. It's the antidote to the adrenaline that the open-topped hybrid coupe encourages in most enthusiast bloodstreams, but this nearly-11-minute video is the most captivating B-roll we've seen in a while. From hand-sewn leather to hand-wrapped trim, monococques being wheeled about, the copious use of shims and the rear brace being fitted over the engine, plus the Christmas-like joy of opening a box of body panels, it's all in there. You can't buy a new one anymore, but you can see how they're built for those who did buy them in the video above.
