1991 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet: To Restore Or Part on 2040-cars
Year:1991
Mileage:90000
Location:
Sudbury, Massachusetts, United States

Unfortunately my very well sorted 1991 Black/Linen 944 S2 was
involved in a building collapse last week about an hour's north of New York
City. Not having the time to deal with it I have decided to sell. As per the
highly regarded body shop in which it is stored in New Windsor, NY, all the damage is cosmetic.
The car is a fairly easy fix or probably worth even more parted, given the
condition of the vehicle prior to the accident. No insurance claim so title will be delivered with no accident history. Here's the best description I
can give. I am not interested in parting the car out myself. In 1989 the 944S2 was introduced, powered by a 211 PS (155 kW;
208 hp) normally aspirated, dual-overhead-cam 16-valve 3.0L version of the
944Sengine. With a bore of 104 mm (4.1 in) and a stroke of 88 mm
(3.5 in), it was the largest production 4-cylinder engine of its
time. The 944S2 also received a revised transmission and gearing to better
suit the 3.0-liter M44/41 powerplant. The 944S2 had the same rounded nose and a
rear valance found on the Turbo model. This was the first example of the use of
an integrated front bumper, where the fender and hood profiles would merge
smoothly with the bumper, a design feature that has only now seen widespread
adoption on the 1990 onward production cars. Performance was quoted as
0-60 mph in 6.0 seconds (0–100 km/h 6.8 s), with a top speed of
240 km/h (150 mph) via manual transmission. A Club Sport touring
package (M637) was also available. On Mar-09-14 at 19:04:19 PDT, seller added the following information: The correct model year is 2000 (not 2001). Once the auction started I was not able to correct the title listing. Also the car has just over 100,000 miles now. Also, for those interested repairing the car, the shop's estimate for labor (body) was $2,2,00 (@37 hours). I have no affiliation of this body shop; it was recommended to me by the local and well respected independent Porsche tech (Advanced Automotive of New Windsor, NY). |

Porsche Museum highlights history of the 911 RSR
Sat, 12 Jan 2013Porsche has amassed quite an impressive trophy case in just about every racing series it has ever entered, and one of its most dominant machines has to be the 911 RSR from the 1970s. Taking part in various GT-class competitions, the 911 RSR managed to take home three international and seven German victories in 1973, its very first year of competition.
Not one to downplay its racing successes, Porsche has released an informative video detailing the 911 RSR's impressive heritage. The 1973 RSR model owned by the Porsche Museum is detailed beautifully on video, and we have to say it looks absolutely stunning in its vintage Martini Racing livery.
Have a look at the video below for some historic racing action, along with static shots of one of our favorite Porsche models ever created.
MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
SoCal car culture bids farewell to an LA motoring landmark
Thu, Apr 28 2016It had a good run, but after 84 years, LA's iconic 6th Street Bridge is being torn down and replaced with a new structure. Magnus Walker gathered members of Southern California's legendary car culture to say goodbye. The East 6th Street bridge is just one of the hundred-plus spans that cross the Los Angeles River, built during the boom era of the 1930s, but it's among the most iconic. It spans the river and the rail yards from the industrial area to the West Side that's rapidly gentrifying as LA's Arts District. Unfortunately the concrete that was laid down way back in the 1932 is far beyond repair at this point. So after years of patchwork and tentative maintenance, the local authorities are taking it down and replacing it with a new bridge in a process that's expected to take four years. The destruction of the landmark is sad news for the people who have come to embrace it as one of the city's most memorable structures – people like Magnus Walker. The so-called Urban Outlaw, known as much for his offbeat style as he is for customizing Porsches, put out word to the tuner community that it was time to say goodbye to their beloved bridge, and out they came, looking like something straight out of a Fast & Furious movie. See how it all came together in this latest video from eGarage. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
