1987 Porsche 944s. This is a whole running car that is in overall rough condition. Took this car as payment for a debt owed and just wanna sell it as I have no time or interest in Porsche. The interior is inside but is half taken apart. Driver side window is stuck down. Emblems are rough. Wheels need to be blasted and repainted or powder coated. Tires actually have lots of tread, but are old. Car will start right up and drive around the lot, but its in overall pretty rough shape and is dirty. We don't have a lot of its history because we just took it in recently. It will make a great project car to either go thru it and make it a street car and turn it into a track car. The body is actually in real good shape with no signs or rust holes and or anything bad like that. Part of the rear emblem is missing. The rims are an aftermarket Italian company that it's the air valve I. The center of the rim instead on on the outer rim. It sure if that is a design for looks, or if it has some sort of engineering or racing value. We have some documents found in the car such as a camp,eye top end over haul after a icing belt went at 108k miles back in 2003. Head was refurb'd, timing belt done, etc.....a $3,600 job. Another receipt shows a service that included a synthetic oil change. These slips give us hope that the car was actually well maintained hopefully thru most of its life, until ow where t is just sitting around and needs to be freshened up or used to make a race car,or it could just be a complete parts car. Clean clear CT title and bill of sale. Winning bidder has 7 days from the end of the auction to render full payment via money order, cashier check, wire transfer, cash in person, or via PayPal. Email me if you have any questions or would like pics of anything particular. No reserve auction. Highest bid gets it.

Porsche 991 vs. 930 Flatnose in 911 Turbo convertible faceoff
Tue, 15 Jul 2014The Porsche 911 Turbo has a legacy of being a tough car to drive. With a ton of power set right over the rear wheels, its reputation is to lose control as soon as the driver stops concentrating. However, this isn't quite so true anymore. The modern ones are tamed through technology with things like hydraulically controlled engine mounts, not to mention all-wheel drive. In its latest video, Autocar tries to decide whether 25 years of progress really makes the turbo a better vehicle.
It's summer, so what better version to compare than the 911 Turbo Cabriolet? In one corner, Autocar has the latest and greatest 2014 version pumping out 513 horsepower and 486 pound-feet of torque with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Its challenger is a 1989 911 flatnose convertible sporting 326 hp and 347 lb-ft of torque. It's a truly rare car in the UK with only eight of them remaining on the roads in that region.
Granted, this test isn't so much a battle as it is a comparison. There's no question that the modern 911 would beat the classic in practically every objective category. What the video aims to find out is whether the flatnose is better in subjective measurements like its "feel." Scroll down to watch these two droptop Porsches square off.
China may surpass US as Porsche's largest market this year thanks to Cayenne
Thu, 09 Oct 2014China has already surpassed the United States as the world's largest automotive market, so it's no surprise that one day soon it will be the world's largest Porsche market.
In fact, that day may already be here, as the PRC's Porschephiles outbought their American counterparts in September. Porsche's Chinese dealers sold 4,344 cars last month to America's 3,607. Through all of 2014 so far, though, the US is still the larger market for the German brand.
"The U.S. performed very well this year, after a great year in 2013, but China is growing fast, thanks to the Cayenne which is our best seller there," Porsche's sales and marketing boss, Bernhard Maier, told Automotive News Europe.
Driving the million-mile Porsche 356
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Maybe you've seen or heard about the Porsche 356 with almost one-million miles (though it doesn't look like it), but Petrolicious finally has produced a video to show us what it's like to drive the 982,000-mile car. Guy Newmark's beautiful, dark-blue 1964 356C looks great in motion - much better than in photos - and serves to remind us not only what meticulous car care can do for old classics, but that old Porsches were built to last.
So how fastidious is Newmark about maintaining it? He takes the car to his mechanic of 40 years every 3,000 miles for an oil change and to fix anything that needs attention.
Newmark says his 356 "is everything you could want," and that he finds errands to do just to go drive it. We would, too. The next-best thing is to watch the inspiring video below of the well-traveled Porsche.
