1990 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet (convertible) on 2040-cars
Amissville, Virginia, United States
|
A fine example of a classic design. This car has been a project of mine and has had some well sorted upgrades done so far. Black on Black on Black Cabriolet with a well documented service history. Car has 85,000 miles. All belts, rollers, and bearings done in the last 10,000 miles. The paint is not new but is in very good condition. No rust anywhere. New top and toneau cover with new cables installed. The interior is immaculate. Seats were recovered. The dash is perfect. Koni rear coilovers installed. Koni front inserts go with the car. I just haven't installed them yet. Wheels are BSA. 18X8 front and 18X10 rear. Falken tires with less than 5,000 miles. 245/50/18 front and 295/35/18 rear. Everything works. However, the clock in the dash gummed up this month. I have ordered a splitter and am waiting for it to arrive. They are made to order so, I am waiting my turn. Drivetrain is solid and this would do as a daily driver with no worries. I bought it with the intention of installing a LS1 but it is just too nice to not leave original. So, I am going a different direction. If I were to keep it, I would replace the clock, the windshield header is warped. It doesn't interfere with the function of the top or anything else, I'm just picky and would replace it. Also, the tripometer works but will not reset to 000. I would install the splitter and install the front Koni's. Also, I had to roll the rear fender lips to make room for the 295's. The paint cracked and should be redone. The rear fenders have excellent lines for taping off and repainting with out having to paint the whole car. I was quoted $500 to have it done. The A/C has been converted to 134a and works. Electric windows work. Electric seats work. This car will make an excellent DD or a good project to pick up and continue for an enthusiast. I still have the stock wheels with a new set of Cooper tires if you are looking to go original. I can put them back on and adjust the price accordingly. Thanks for looking! $250.00 deposit by paypal due upon winning the auction or if you buy it now. Remaining funds do at pick up. |

Porsche responds to PETA after tiger cub displays at Macan dealership events
Tue, 13 May 2014Porsche has found itself in the good graces of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which is pretty odd considering it's the only brand we know of that offers leather-lined vents. The activist group is praising the sports car manufacturer's handling of reports that some of its dealerships were set to feature tigers or tiger cubs at the local launch events for the Macan. Apparently, "macan" is the Malay word for tiger, which explains the connection between a highly touted crossover and a jungle cat.
A Tampa, FL dealership already displayed some three-week-old cubs, with PETA saying tigers for display should be at least eight to 12 weeks old. Even then, the group argues that the animals can suffer due to stress, malnourishment, neglect and a lack of veterinary care. The group brings up legal concerns, as well, arguing that if one of the cubs bit a customer, the dealership could be held liable (we're no big cat experts, but it seems unlikely a three-week-old cub could do that much damage).
Porsche's PR department quickly reacted to PETA's claims, with Vice President of Marketing Andre Oosthuizen, telling the group that Porsche is concerned about the "welfare of any animal, large or small, wild or domesticated." Oosthuizen's statements were reported in an official PETA blog.

Porsche patent sketches show removable headrest wind deflector
Mon, 21 Oct 2013While driving around in a convertible might seem glamorous, ask anyone with long hair and they'll likely tell you how it really is: the wind buffets, your hair goes everywhere and it's anything but glamorous. That's why you see so many convertibles driving with their tops up, their windows up or wind deflectors in place. But Porsche is apparently preparing to kick it up to the next level.
These patent drawings have leaked out, demonstrating what appears to be some new kind of wind-deflecting device being developed by Porsche. The mechanism is apparently fitted to the headrest itself and designed to keep the wind buffeting specifically around the head down to a minimum while allowing the car's occupants to enjoy the top-down driving experience.
No word on when it might hit the market, but we won't be surprised to see this kind of device appear on a future version of the Boxster or 911 Cabriolet. But nowhere else: despite the apparent leak, the patent drawings suggest that Porsche will be keeping this technology proprietary. Whether sister brands like Volkswagen, Bentley or Lamborghini will get their hands on it remains to be seen.
