This auction is for one 1990 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet. In 1990 Porsche only produced 3938 of these Cabriolet’s for the year. This car is just one of 1824 produced for the US market. With production numbers this low, this car is destined to be a collector’s item in the very near future. The 944 Cabriolet body was built for Porsche by ASC, American Sunroof Company in Weinberg Germany, a first for the 944 line.

 

This 944 with its low 82K original miles has a long list of recent upgrades and mechanical fixes including, a full tune up, new shocks, brakes and rotors, alternator, starter, exhaust, K&N filter and timing belt check. New door panels are included with the sale.

 

The convertible top is brand new. The top is now manually operated rather than electrically.  This is pretty common for these cars because of the size of the roof, it literally can be open and closed in seconds with just your fingertips. The roof could be made to work electrically again with new cables.

 

The car runs drives and shifts without any problems and drives like a proper 944. There is evidence of a prior accident under the hood on the diver’s side frame rail. Although minor, this is what is causing the front bumper to be out of alignment. It has no affect on the drivability of the car. Apparently this is why the car now has a salvaged title. Rhode Island doesn’t issue titles to vehicles over 10 years old so I was not aware of this issue.

 

They say “a picture tells a thousand words”, so follow the link below to see over 60 photos and a few videos of this 944.

This Porsche 944 will be sold with a bill of sale. Rhode Island doesn’t issue titles to vehicles over 10 years old, so check your local laws before bidding. Bidders with zero or negative feedback must email before bidding.

 

The car can be test driven to serious local bidders, just email for an appointment. Any questions, just email me. Thanks.

1949 Gm?nd Porsche shows the birth of an icon

Fri, 21 Mar 2014

The Austrian village of Gmünd is more than just difficult to pronounce; it's also the birthplace of the Porsche brand. Before the company ever started building sports cars at its current home base near Stuttgart, the fledgling business completed several vehicles in the tiny town in Southern Austria. In this video, former Pikes Peak International Hill Climb champion Jeff Zwart takes a look at a 1949 Gmünd coupe to see how the company has evolved since its earliest days.
The thing to note about the Gmünd-built Porsches is their absolute design simplicity. The phrase "form follows function" gets bandied around a lot, but it really means something when you look at these early cars. However, the minimalism was partially out of necessity. The vehicles were meant to be sporty but certainly weren't rockets. Power came courtesy of a modified Volkswagen Beetle engine, and anything extraneous would have slowed the models down. Scroll down to watch Zwart go back in time to Porsche's beginnings.

2015 Porsche Cayenne spotted with facelift

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Although it's only been a few years since the current Porsche Cayenne was introduced, Porsche seems to be working on a midcycle update for its big SUV possibly in time to welcome the smaller Macan. As seen in these recent spy shots, it looks like the Cayenne will be getting a minor face- and butt-lift, but it's hard to say what other changes are in store or when the updated model will hit showrooms.
Up front, expect the Cayenne's new face to resemble what was just revealed on the 2014 Panamera, and we could also see this SUV using some of the new engines introduced on the Panamera including the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 or maybe even the E-Hybrid model. We're guessing that the new Cayenne could debut sometime next year likely for the 2015 model year. In the meantime, check out the gallery of spy shots above.

Porsche kicks off Macan production at revamped Leipzig plant

Sun, 16 Feb 2014

After over two years of construction and roughly 500 million euros ($684 million at current rates) invested, Porsche finally opened its Leipzig, Germany, factory expansion on February 11. The improvements to the plant are dedicated to building the Macan and include a new body shop, paint shop and assembly line that are advancing Porsche's goal to sell 50,000 Macan's per year. The company believes that the new model is going to push it to over 200,000 annual sales 3 years ahead of schedule, and the enlarged branch can support even more Macan production, if there is demand.
"We are totally convinced in the qualities of this location and that the Macan will be a marketing success," said Porsche Chairman Matthias Müller during the opening celebration. The company opened its Leipzig factory in 2002 to build the Cayenne and added Panamera production in 2009.
The Macan models are due to launch in the US this summer with prices starting at $49,900. Scroll down to learn all of the details about the Macan's Leipzig assembly plant.
