1987 Porsche 944 Turbo
186k well-cared-for miles. Runs like a car with half the miles. Not driven hard. No big mechanical issues. A/C blows cold, even in Austin, TX.
Would make a VERY easy full restoration candidate, a fun driver a few times a week as I've used it, or a great track day car.
I will include a full and complete set of Porsche service manuals including the Turbo supplement binder.
Work done since I've had the car: new clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder, new rack and pinion, new A/C compressor, accumulator, and evaporator (Lines flushed while apart, professionally vaccumed and recharged), Speedometer and odometer rebuilt (Trip odometer is reliable now-a big problem with these cars), turn signal switch replaced, center console lid replaced.
The previous owner installed a Kenwood stereo that stopped working a couple of months ago. I have the original stereo and equalizer, which come with the car.
A previous owner replaced the gauge cluster, so the exact mileage was lost. This does not effect the title or registration on the car. The mileage showing now reflects the correct mileage (within a thousand) based on the old cluster and the mileage since.
Brakes are in good shape, but do squeek sometimes at random. (Previous owner installed Pagid black pads...great stopping power but can be noisy sometimes)
The body is in very nice shape except for a small dent on the top of the driver's side fender. The paint was in good shape when I got the car, but because of someone earlier wet-sanding and over-buffing the clear on the hood and roof, the Texas sun has worn off some of the clear finish on the hood and roof (visible in pics-the last pic shows how the car looked two years ago). The reserve will reflect my understanding that the car needs to be painted, at least the roof, hood, and headlight doors.
Interior is original and very nice except for a few cracks in the dash. (Hard to find a 944 without a cracked dash.)
Sun roof fits good and comes on and off easily, but the rear-lift function doesn't work. I've never missed it so I didn't fix it. I take the roof off if it's nice out.
The car has a small oil leak from the pan. We're talking a 3 inch wide small puddle every few weeks in the garage. Not a big deal, but I want to be honest.
Pictures are honest and speak for themselves. This is a good car that needs just a few things to be a great car. I'd rather keep it, but I have a baby on the way.
Buyer will be responsible for pick up and/or shipping. I will accept cash or cashier's check only. Full payment expected within 7 days of auction end.

Why you must buy an air-cooled Porsche 911 now
Fri, 14 Feb 2014"Because" might be a good response to our headline, but as a vintage (purists might call 'proper') Porsche 911 is hardly cheap, we suspect you'll need a better explanation than that. Enter Drive editor Mike Spinelli.
Spinelli sits down with Zac Moseley and Mick Prichinello from Classic Car Club Manhattan to first explain why the market for old, air-cooled 911s has gotten so hot over the past few years, and to discuss if it's a bubble that's about to burst. Following that, this video is really is just three guys sitting around talking about old Porsches for 35 minutes. Which, you know, we're pretty onboard with.
Scroll down and have a look at the latest episode of After/Drive, from Drive.
Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer
Mon, 07 Oct 2013An Iconic Sports Car, Restored to Seduce
I have been strapped behind the iconic Momo Prototipo steering wheel for a little more than an hour, all windows down as I carve my way up a rugged canyon during an unusually warm Southern California evening, and I am overwhelmed with emotion. My heart is pounding out of my chest, my breathing is heavy and my palms are sweaty because I am completely absorbed by this wondrous machine.
After waiting patiently for nearly four years, I am finally behind the wheel of a classic Porsche 911 restored, modified and tuned by Singer Vehicle Design. The vehicle that surrounds me never rolled off an automaker's assembly line in its current configuration, yet its physical appearance is timeless, build quality breathtaking and driving dynamics peerless.
Porsche Cayman GT4 speeds back into view
Tue, 18 Nov 2014We're all familiar with the succession of numbers that follow the letters GT on a hard-core Porsche 911: the GT1 that was Stuttgart's Le Mans contender in the late 90s, the GT2 that packs turbochargers but without the Turbo's all-wheel drive and excess weight, and the naturally aspirated GT3 that's the enthusiast's choice. But a GT4? That's something new, and exactly what Porsche has in store.
Spied testing in Germany once again is the upcoming GT4 version of the Porsche Cayman, set to supersede the existing GTS and take the place of the previous Cayman R at the top of Porsche's junior sports car range. This latest batch of spy shots doesn't show us much more than the last crop, but gives us a much clearer view at what promises to be the most hardcore Cayman to date.
As you can see, the Cayman GT4 packs a much more aggressive aero kit and rolling stock than any version we've seen to date. It's got a lip spoiler, big air dam and GT3-style vent in front of the hood, deep air scoops along the flanks, a set of spindly alloys packing oversized brakes, a diffuser with twin central exhaust tips around back and a rear wing that's likely to be replaced with a sleeker unit before the GT4 reaches production.
