Here you have a 1987 944S with all the Porsche luxuries that was bought by a perfectionist. Like most purchases it looked ok, but after purchase came the surprises. My friend is a novice to the Porsche crowd and this was his first one. He bought it , it seemed OK but then little things were wrong, so he set out to make it mechanically perfect. At 79600 miles put in new gas struts, new turn signal switch other misc. Bill came to $2,023.53. Next a little more driving , then more stuff not quite perfect so needed to be fixed. New AC compressor, new AC expansion valve, new windshield reservoir and pump and new Dynomax VT muffler, total $1,886.96. Few more miles then New drive belts, Timing belt, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor , valve cover gasket balance shaft seal and clutch to the tune of $3,777.44. Mechanically it needs nothing. I am including the number for Mitch at the repair shop a 944 expert and he can tell you they went through the car top to bottom, NO mechanical issues that they have not already been repaired. The paint is good, normal use, stone chips, the leather on both seats are cracked, BUT NO ISSUES WITH THE RUNNING OF THE CAR. Don't be fooled by other inexpensive 944 that look OK, THE BILLS ADD UP FAST. To give you an idea when he bought the car , sounded and ran ok , but in less than a year put $7687.93 plus the cost of a new set of tires. Many say their car needs nothing, BUT look at the bills this car is mechanically sound. Questions call Mitch at Hi Line auto he can answer any questions or set up a test drive. (630) 663-0044. My friend has now become a Porsche freak and after getting this car mechanically just right is now moving on and bought an even faster Porsche... so the cycle begins again. please email with any questions or if you would like additional pictures. I have the car for sale locally so have the right to end the auction at any time. Come out schedule a test drive see for yourself this is a tight Porsche!

Porsche recalling 24,500 Panameras for a potential HVAC coolant pump issue
Tue, Feb 14 2023A possible coolant pump problem for the HVAC system is causing Porsche to recall 24,467 units of the Panamera from the 2017 to 2020 model years. Bentley's recalling 650 examples of the sibling 2020 Continental GT for the same issue. Porsche was notified of a malfunction in the external heat pump for the Panamera's climate control in December 2022. An automaker investigation found that it's possible for excess humidity or even liquid to get past the pump seals and short out the pump's circuit board and connector. In rare instances, the malfunction could cause a fire. This can happen even when the engine is turned off because the cars in question are equipped with a residual heat function that keeps warming the cabin after shutdown. Panameras built after July 26, 2021 were fitted with a different pump. The Stuttgart carmaker's field analysis showed "a very small number of instances of thermal damage possibly attributable to this issue." Bentley changed the part in July 2019 to a model with a pressure compensation seal. Porsche said it will begin notifying owners on March 27. It also said it will reimburse any Panamera owners who have paid to have the part fixed previous to this recall. The fix is a trip to the dealer for a new pump with better sealing, sourced from a new supplier. Bentley will begin notifying owners on the same day. In Bentley's case, though, the automaker says "A hardware change will be required but the final solution is currently under investigation and cannot be confirmed at this time." Since the automaker moved to a new pump that isn't part of the recall population, we aren't sure why a resolution remains under investigation. Porsche owners can contact Porsche customer service at 800-767-7243 and refer to internal recall number APA1. Bentley owners can call 800-777-6923 and refer to RE23/02 (RC67). Anyone in that group can go straight to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration at 888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or nhtsa.gov, citing campaign number 23V033 for the Panamera or 23V034 for the Bentley.

McLaren P1 squares off against Porsche 918 in Evo track battle
Fri, Nov 21 2014Evo's side-by-side comparison of the McLaren P1 against the Porsche 918 Spyder isn't the first time we've seen England and Germany's ultimate automotive weapons sized up together; last month, Autocar tested them over the standing mile, with a Ducati 1199 Superleggera playing the joker. Evo throws a few curves at its test, though, taking the supercars to Anglesey Circuit in Wales to see which will lay down the fastest lap time with scribe Jethro Bovington at the wheel. In case the numbers haven't yet been seared into your memory, while both are assisted by electric motors, the 3,069-pound, rear-wheel drive P1 gets on with 903 horsepower and 664 pound-feet from a 3.8-liter, twin-turbocharged V8. The 3,750-pound, all-wheel-drive 918 Spyder does its job with 795 hp and 575 lb-ft surging out of a naturally aspirated, 4.6-liter V8. We're not told know which circuit layout he uses for the test, but both cars comfortably eclipse the mark set by the fastest coupe Evo's driven around it so far, the Ferrari 458 Speciale. Then, in an epilogue occasioned by a tire change, one of the supercars comfortably eclipses its own time again, before Bovington declares one the master of the track and the other the ruler of the street. Enjoy finding out which is which in the video above.
Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
