Almost all of the interior is there but it's mostly taken apart. Starts up with a jump and drives. Will be a great project car, race car project, or just a parts car. No major rust or decomposition . It's generally not deteriorated but is cosmetically very rough such as the rims are peeling the paint, some scratches all over, driver window broken, etc."

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.

Revel in the glory of the Porsche 911 engine factory

Fri, Jan 2 2015

A flat-six engine pumping away behind the driver defines the Porsche brand for many people, whether they are buying a Boxster, Cayman or 911. If you want to appreciate the sound and fury concentrated in the rear of these German sports cars even more, then take a tour of the company's 911 engine factory in Zuffenhausen, Germany, to see the work that goes into each one. We're long past the days of automotive assembly lines being deafening, dirty affairs, but it's still somewhat shocking to see just how sterile the plant in Zuffenhausen is. Each person wears a matching gray jumpsuit and gloves, and there's not a drop of grease of them. While the components are constantly coming down the line, there doesn't appear to be much of a rush. It's just a slow, steady movement that gives workers time to complete their appointed tasks. At least in this video, the employees don't even seem to talk to each other; the only sound is the hum of the plant or whir of tools. It's transfixing to watch these famous engine slowly come together largely from human hands. News Source: Cars via YouTube Plants/Manufacturing Porsche Technology Performance Videos engine

Porsche to offer next-gen 911 GT3 with a manual

Mon, Nov 2 2015

Porsche may have offended some of the purists among its customer base when it rolled out the current 911 GT3 with only a dual-clutch transmission. But according to Car and Driver, the next GT3 will get a stick again. The development comes as the good folks at Zuffenhausen (and Weissach) attempt to balance the instant-shifting benefits of a DCT with the direct involvement of a conventional manual transmission. On the one hand, Porsche introduced a new seven-speed manual with the 991-generation model. On the other, it didn't offer that manual (or any manual for that matter) on the GT3 or even the more hardcore GT3 RS. In response to customer demand for a more back-to-basics approach, Porsche is preparing to introduce a new variant expected to be called the 911 R, with a manual, no turbos, and skinnier tires for a more linear driving experience. And the Cayman GT4 was launched only with a manual instead of a DCT. "The GT3 is full of systems that make sense on the track, but for the purist, there may be something lost," Porsche GT chief Andreas Preuninger told C/D. "It is our long-term goal to have the customer decide between the two approaches." In addition to the DCT, the current GT3 also features a four-wheel steering system. The shift (so to speak) back to a manual option in the next GT3 will undoubtedly come as a welcome development for those purists offended by the DCT-only option – to say nothing of Porsche's movement towards SUVs, diesels, and hybrids. That manual option may not, however, offer all seven forward cogs available in the stick-shift Carrera. One way or another, though, we don't doubt that most customers would still go for the dual-clutch option over the single on they can actuate themselves. Related Video:

China may surpass US as Porsche's largest market this year thanks to Cayenne

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

China 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.
