1991 Porsche 944 S2 Convertible 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars

Year:1991 Mileage:170821
Location:

Olathe, Kansas, United States

Olathe, Kansas, United States

Up for sale is a 1991 944 S2 cabriolet.  1991 was the final year for the 944 before the launch of the 968, and this one of only 562 for the US market in 1991. Total US production for 90-91 was less than 2,400. I have enjoyed owning this car for 5 years, as was my daily driver until I started working from home last year.  Car has been well kept, runs and drives great.  The car is equipped with power windows, locks, and top, plus cruise control.  All power options, a/c & heat work, and I added an Alpine AM/FM CD player with Bluetooth. 

The paint is in good shape with a few small chips.  Prior to my ownership some paint work was done behind the passenger door and there are some very small rust bubbles.  Would be very easy to sand and paint (see picture for detail).  Top is an aftermarket replacement of unknown age, and has visible wear, but rear window is clear.

The interior is in okay condition.  Dash is in great shape (see picture) but passenger seat has a seam separation across the bottom.  Air bags have been removed, but will be included with the sale.  Car comes with original top boot, tool kit, air compressor & all books with factory pouch.

Upgrades and maintenance:

  • Koni adjustable shocks were installed with M030 caster blocks at 132k
  • Autopower Roll Bar
  • Front strut brace 
  • Momo Prototipo steering wheel
  • Rod bearings, timing belt, balancer belt at 153k
  • Cap, rotor, & plugs at 169k
  • Yokohama S-drive tires - rears have less than 5k on them
  • Oil changes every 3-5k, and injectors cleaned last year

There is a recent problem with the car.  It has begun to use coolant.  No visible smoking, but I have to assume its a problem with the head gasket.  As I mentioned, the car runs and drives great, pulls strongly through the rev range with no problems, but I do not know the cause of the issue.  This is a great commuter car, fun in the summer, and great for autocross events.  Would a great candiate for an LS swap if you wanted more power.

Thank you for your consideration, and please contact me with any questions at 913-486-2006.


There is a deposit of $500, payable only via PayPal. Deposit is required within 48hrs of auction close. Final payment and delivery/shipping arrangements made at the completion of this sale.  I reserve the right to end the auction early as I have the car for sale locally.

Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.

Preparing for Le Mans 2014 Porsche remembers 1971 and the 917 [w/video]

Sun, 07 Apr 2013

Porsche has given us another look back at its successes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This time it's 1971, the year that its 917 set records that haven't all been eclipsed. It's 45-kilogram magnesium tube frame was the lightest, Jackie Oliver set the fastest in-race lap with a time that still stands, and winning drivers Helmut Marko - the same Helmut Marko currently with Infiniti Red Bull Racing - and Gilles Lethem did so many laps that their distance wasn't exceeded until the Audi R15 TDI did it in 2010.
1971 was also the year of the "Pink Pig." With bodywork created by a French aerodynamics firm, the wider, rounder 917 earned the porcine moniker so Porsche painted it pink and labeled it with the cuts you'd get from a pig. Sponsor Martini was so miffed they demanded all Martini branding be removed. No one can remove the thousands of photographs taken of the car ever since. Enjoy that and more in the video below.

2015 Porsche Cayenne S

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Oh, Porsche.
Just as the dust settles over the 911 GT3's no manual gearbox kerfuffle, the Germans have gone and yanked the yummy naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V8 from the Cayenne S and replaced it with a twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6. Is nothing sacred in Porscheland?
Perhaps not... but that's not necessarily a bad thing. After all, Porsche famously once said they'd never build a diesel, but when they did, it was actually rather stellar.
