Porsche 944 Turbo 951 Track Car Hpde, Auto-x , Great Street Car. Very Fast on 2040-cars
Baltimore, Maryland, United States
I am moving 3 hours away for work and will have no garage. Check and see, I am also selling my 914 and Speedster rep. Here is what I can tell you - YOU WANT THIS CAR! I bought it in April of 2013 to use as a track car, but really it is way too nice. I used it once on the track and it is a screamer. The car was the daily driver of a 944cup racer and he did it right. You can tell a hack job from a pro and this one is no hack job. Although the body has 180k on it, the engine is a VERY FRESH full rebuild with receipts close to 5k just for that. The car has a COA and its original window sticker for $39,980. The car is very fast and the suspension and brakes are tight. Records go back to 1996. cosmetically, it is not a show car. It still looks really great - especially in silver but there are some scratches and some clear peeling. There was a small dent behind the driver door that was bumped out and looks passable, but not perfect. Seats are very soft and carpet is in good shape. Dash is cracked. Zermatt silver with Black interior Less than 5k miles since engine and head rebuild. Every seal and bearing replaced WIDE FIRE head gasket New timing belt/rollers/water pump/alternator 18" staggered 9/10" BBS Sport Classic II wheels with Bridgestone Potenza S02A tires 75% tread 225/265 Also, track wheels and tires 17 inch staggered 8/9" Porsche C2 Mille Miglia reps with Toyo Proxes 245/255 60% tread left. Performance parts include Spec clutch. Short Throw Shifter and brand new shift lever, k26/27 turbo and custom chip by Motor Werks Racing, Lindsey racing AC delete bracket (so NO A?C), Lindsey racing Billet non adjustable bypass valve, Lindsey Racing Idle Stabilizer/Venturi delete hoses, MSD Blaster II coil, 3.0 bar Bosch Fuel Pressure regulator, Lindsey racing one piece solid transmission mount, Lindsey racing A pillar Guage pod with boost and water temp gauges (THIS CAR DOES NOT GET HOT!), Koni Adjustable shocks front and rear, Weltmeister 250 lb front springs, Zimmerman cross drilled rotors, Stainless brake lines, Bosch Battery, New Starter, harness bar and 5 pt harnesses are installed and the 3 point factory belts are as well. I really don't recommend the harness bar for the track though. This car hustles. I took it to the track ONE TIME (Summit Point) and at 100mph if you step on it, it pins you back. Boost is very strong in all 5 gears. I had a 6 spd 540i that was 282hp and this car would crush that. BTW, I am 44 years old and the car has sat in my garage most of the time I have owned it. Please do not bid and don't buy. I have to move by August 15th and can not take the time to re-list this. Going with no reserve just to help speed up the sale. odometer is not functioning - stupid plastic gear! |

This is why we love the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer
Tue, 11 Nov 2014In the world of restomods, Singer Vehicle Designs is inarguably one of our absolute favorites. The company, founded by rocker Rob Dickinson, has made its name as an obsessive constructor of vintage, built-to-order Porsche 911s with modern internals and beautiful accouterments.
Xcar has put together a lengthy interview with Dickinson, covering the source of his fascination with the 911 and his passion for automotive design, before falling into his rock-and-roll days with his band Catherine Wheel. He also covers how he got into the world of modifying Porsches, rather than just restoring them. There's much, much more in the video, though, and we promise, you won't want to miss it.
Take a look.
Porsche finally moving ahead with flat four engine
Sun, 23 Mar 2014When Porsche released the first Boxster in 1996 and the first Cayman in 2005, the idea was to create an entry-level model for the German automaker's sports car range. The latest iterations of both closely related models, however, have begun to encroach dangerously on the 911's territory, particularly in their newest GTS specifications. That could be about to change, however, with the introduction of a four-cylinder engine for the compact mid-engined coupe and roadster.
According to Automotive News, Porsche is finally preparing to launch a new boxer four engine in the Boxster and Cayman, following years of speculation. The engine would be based on the same architecture as the company's famous flat six, but with two fewer cylinders to cut weight. Don't expect it to cut much in the way of performance, however: Porsche chief Matthias Muller indicates that the new engine could produce as much as 395 horsepower - significantly more than even the 340hp flat six in the Cayman GTS, suggesting that the engine could even find its way into the 911 as well.
It's no more clear which markets would get the four-cylinder engine, either. But wherever it is offered and in whichever form, it wouldn't be the first time we'd see a Porsche with a four-pot engine. Not by a long shot. Both the classic 912 and 356 were powered by boxer fours, as was the 914 - not to mention the 718 pictured above and the iconic 550 Spyder. The front-engined 924, 944 and 968 packed inline-four engines, but the last of those were discontinued in the 1990s. The prospect of a four-cylinder Boxster/Cayman has been rumored for many years now, most recently joined by the possibility of a four-pot Macan as well.
Porsche 918 Spyder pre-production version in all its almost-done glory
Sun, 18 Aug 2013Porsche continues the long tease of its upcoming 918 Spyder, with the latest instantiation here at the Pebble Beach Concours, with the car presented in pre-production form to the throngs on the golf course.
Just a few days ago Porsche dropped an image of the car on its official Twitter feed. True to that leak, this 918 looks damn near what we expect the full customer version to be when it is officially debuted in Frankfurt. The neon-green brake calipers are items new to this version of the 918, and seem to be an identical color to those found on the Panamera S E-Hybrid.
When it shows up as a drivable piece, expect the Porsche supercar, with its gasoline-electric drivetrain, to be pretty insane. Horsepower in excess of 800 ponies will be available with a toe-tap, while the price of entry is expected to come within shouting distance of $850,000. A good deal for Porsche to bring the thing to Pebble then, where buyers with that kind of cash are think on the ground (and most likely wearing sherbet-colored trousers).
