1989 Porsche 944 S2 Coupe 2-door 2.7 Ltr on 2040-cars

Year:1989 Mileage:156000
Location:

Niles, Illinois, United States

Niles, Illinois, United States

Good: Body is in great shape, Porsche red paint looks great! handles great, very solid body. Runs better now then when purchased, will glide last mile before highway exit.

 

Florida car/ clean Florida title, but kept in Chicago garage currently.

 

This car has not been driven 5,000 miles in last 10 years.

 

944 "tank" solid frame which is ironic because i think its strength is slalom type handling and Drift car body frame, very light 2000 pound area. the engine is very clean filled with new parts, Exempt mileage, 2.7 liter non-turbo 5 speed, New clutch summer 2011, Rebuilt engine a lot in 2004ish. New Faulken tires. Sunroof. Easier to fit in then 911, if you are tall.

The 1989, 944 2.7 liter is better then earlier 80s engines in the 944. 944 models were Police Interceptor Cars, this car seems to run very well at a sustained 90 mph pace but is better at slalom type handling.

 

Owned the car since 2004.  Owners manual says run on 95 octane.

 

Bad: window washer sprayer doesn't work but wipers work well, put in 2 or more thermostats, No A/C, may hold freon.

Odometer says: 156,000 miles, from 2007-2014 no more than 700 miles in one of those years. In 2009, had head gasket repair and when I got it back from the shop the odometer wasn't working.

 

Interior: you wouldn't buy this car for the interior, it's okay, 2 bucket seats with Porsche covers, minor flaws, hatchback works well. Lots of new cars seemed to have copied this design, Nissan 350ish, it's 70s vette like.

 

Current minor repairs needed:

Crank shaft censor $150, saw one on eBay last week $49.99.

One hazard light bulb $5.00

 

 That's it.

 

You could see how long the AC holds freon? Window washer jets not working.

Good chance once the crank shaft censor fixed you would not have a problem for years.

Runs better now then when i bought it. Selling because I'm unemployed.  If it was a 70s vette have to ask $11,000 but 89 Porsche for $9,900. I have put more money into then asking.

 

You'll like it. Come by and drive it, if you want to buy.

Sale is final via Paypal, unless otherwise negotiated. I have to be paid to set up shipping.

Porsche 918 Spyder configurator goes live

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

That didn't take long. The debut model of the new Porsche 918 Spyder is still thronged by onlookers at the Frankfurt Motor Show, while the German sports car maker is hard at work putting the first version of the supercar's configuration page online. Considering Porsche configurators are some of our favorite time-wasters of the genre, we expect car-guy productivity to drop by a few percentage points over the rest of the day.
So, the 918 dream-maker doesn't list and prices as yet, and that's too bad. But considering the car is due to start off at $845,000 in the US, chances are good that unless you're reading this from the shallow end of your Uncle Scrooge-spec money pool, the cost of any part of the 918 is academic to you anyway.
To start, Porsche is offering twelve paint colors, three wheel choices and seven two-tone interior treatments. Standard lightweight bucket seats and a set of chairs with "firmer padding" are on offer, too. The options list is mostly populated with interior bits, though many - an anti-reflection interior, fire extinguisher, six-point seatbelts - are racing-oriented or functional. Note that Porsche is also kind enough to offer just one cupholder as an optional extra; the unit is made of aluminum and is detachable so that you won't have to carry the extra weight during racing. Also, Porsche probably puts you on some kind of naughty 'list' if you order one...

Top Gear teases Porsche 918 vs McLaren P1 vs LaFerrari showdown

Mon, Jan 5 2015

It's the comparison test we've been waiting over a year to come together: the hybrid hypercar showdown of the century between the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari. They've each got hybrid powertrains pairing eight or more cylinders with an electric motor to drive around 900 horsepower through seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions. They come from exotic automakers with rich racing pedigrees, and each costs around a million bucks. Leave it to the guys from Top Gear, then, to finally put it together. The story adorns the cover of this month's issue of Top Gear magazine, which arranged the showdown – not the television program that started it all. Fortunately, they didn't miss the opportunity to capture the action on video, which will be available to iPad subscribers – but whether you've got access or not, you can catch a short clip of the seven-figure hybrid hypercars right here.
