This is a 1992 Porsche 968 for sale. This is a beautiful car that has been semi-restored. I bought the car to restore over time with my son. He is now in College and have other priorities and can't work on the project anymore. The car is his daily driver right now and works perfectly.

More pictures of the car can be found here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/71875191@N03/sets/72157644503834972/

The engine was rebuilt at around 235,000 miles along with a lot of small replacements and fixes. Tires were replaced at 235,000 miles and are at 70% thread. Almost all front suspension components where replaced also at 235,000 miles. Front bumper, hood, front-left fender and driver side door were all repainted at 249,000 miles. Original wheels without any curb marks. Original carpet in very good condition with only one small stain. Original rugs NOS from Porsche purchased in December 2013 as a Christmas gift. Many of the door seals have been replaced, the only one that hasn't been changed is the right door seal as it is in good shape. The car seals perfectly now and there is no road noises in the cabin.

Original steering wheel that still looks good. Soft leather on the steering wheel and no rips. Some scuffing from use on the top part of the wheel. Original dashboard with everything working. We replaced the heating and cooling unit and the buttons. The acrylic in the unit is new. The dash board have some cracks around the vents and was the next to be restored.

The car runs perfectly smooth. The engine is pulling very strong and the Tiptronic is working perfectly. We rebuilt the brake calipers replacing all the seals. The car have new brake pads also replaced at 235,000 miles. The brake discs are new. The brake hoses are new as is the master cylinder.

The car is very nice and with some time and effort will be perfect. I have some parts that will go with the car so the new owner can replace over time. I have all the plastic clips and all the piping for the car. I also have brand new rear shocks. We replaced the front ones. We also have the internal and external seal for the sun roof and other odds and ends. All the parts are from Porsche. There are many hours and a lot of money in parts on the car. I estimate we probable bought $5,000 in parts to get where we are at. I would keep the car as a toy but I have a 911 SC, a Boxster and a number of motorcycles and just don't have the space for another car.

Here is what was replaced on the car:

New water pump.
New hydraulic steering pump, rack and hoses (absolutely no leaks).
New alternator.
New battery.
Front seats recovered in pleather.
New carpet rug set NOS from Porsche.
New AC compressor.
New wheel bearings in the front.
All the rubber bushing in the front and rear suspension was replaced.
The engine was rebuilt with the following replaced:

Water pump.
All belts.
All belt rollers and bearings.
Variocam chain.
Variocam pads.
Rings.
All bearings.
All bolts required to be replace during rebuilt.
Gaskets and seals.
Some of the hoses.
Spark plugs
Fuel filter
Air filter
Oil filter
Spark plug cables
Distributor cap and rotor
Spark plugs
The valve guides have been replaced and the valves reseated by a professional shop.

Tires.
Brake pads.
New luggage compartment cover.
New front lower arms
All the rubber on the front and rear suspension was replaced with new items from Porsche.
Engine mounts are the original hydraulic ones from Porsche. Both replaced.

Everything in the car is as original as possible, with the following exceptions:

Some parts have been painted non-original colors (red brake calipers, yellow suspension)
The front seats have been replaced with pleather (originally leather)(rear seats are still original)
The stereo receiver has been updated for use with USB, iPhone/iPod, Bluetooth and has an auxiliary input.
The only rubber seal that wasn't replaced on the car was the right hand side door.

Small issues to be addressed by the new owner:

The cruise control isn't working.
The ABS light comes on once-a-while. Some days will be on always, some days will not come on. I traced the problem to the left rear wheel sensor. I haven't replaced the sensor yet.
The AC compressor is brand new but the belt makes some noise when the car is cold. The AC works perfectly and the car gets really cold even down here in Miami. After some warm-up the belt stops making noises. If I put the old belt there is no noise so we are assuming is the belt.
Rear windshield wiper isn't working.
Fuel gauge occasionally doesn't work correctly (shows a full tank).
There are some small chips on the paint here and there. Nothing major just the usual road tiny chip marks.There is a scratch on the right rear quarter that was retouched with a brush. It can be noticed and will need to be repaired at some point.

CARFAX Price Adjustment™: Accidents, service records, number of owners and many other history factors can affect a vehicle's value. The CARFAX Price Adjustment is a tool that analyzes millions of used car transactions to measure how the combination of all the information reported to CARFAX affects the value of a particular vehicle. The vehicle's retail book value plus the CARFAX Price Adjustment will give you a more accurate measure of the vehicle's value. Use this tool, along with a vehicle inspection and test drive, to make a better decision about your next used car.
First Owner: When the first owner(s) obtains a title from a Department of Motor Vehicles as proof of ownership.
New Owner Reported: When a vehicle is sold to a new owner, the Title must be transferred to the new owner(s) at a Department of Motor Vehicles.
Ownership History: CARFAX defines an owner as an individual or business that possesses and uses a vehicle. Not all title transactions represent changes in ownership. To provide estimated number of owners, CARFAX proprietary technology analyzes all the events in a vehicle history. Estimated ownership is available for vehicles manufactured after 1994 and titled solely in the US including Puerto Rico. Dealers sometimes opt to take ownership of a vehicle and are required to in the following states: Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and South Dakota. Please consider this as you review a vehicle's estimated ownership history.
Title Issued: A state issues a title to provide a vehicle owner with proof of ownership. Each title has a unique number. Each title or registration record on a CARFAX report does not necessarily indicate a change in ownership. In Canada, a registration and bill of sale are used as proof of ownership.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.

eGarage video features Helmuth Bott's personal Porsche 959 prototype

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

"We thought we were going to build a super-911," said Peter Schutz, former CEO of Porsche AG of the development of the Porsche 959. That was before it started getting expensive. At that point, Helmuth Bott, Porsche R&D director got frightened. Costs ballooned because of the all-wheel drive, sequential turbocharging and other technology Porsche had never even thought about when it set out to build a 911 to compete in Group B. Schutz continued, "The amount of resources we were committing got totally out of hand." Instead of pulling the plug, Bott doubled down and drew on the strength of his brilliant team to build a car whose impact is still echoing aross the industry.
"It's probably one of our most prized possessions" says Don Leatherwood, Director of the Brumos collection where Dr. Bott's personal prototype resides, and where Frazer Spowart went to see the car and create a video for eGarage. Check out the sights and sounds of the 959 before it was the 959, and get personal takes on the car from Hurley Haywood, Peter Schutz and Don Leatherwood. Keep reading to see the video.

Porsche 944 Turbo jumps in the MotorWeek wayback machine

Sat, Apr 25 2015

While there's no shortage of five- or ten-minute time wasters on the Internet, we humbly submit MotorWeek's awesome series of retro reviews as the best way to take up a short break. This time around, we have a classic Porsche from the 1980s, with John Davis reviewing the 944 Turbo. With a whopping 247 horsepower, the 944 Turbo still represents something of a performer even today, with Davis and Company recording a solid 5.7-second sprint to 60. While it might hold its own against today's hot hatchbacks, it's clear that today's vehicles have come a very long way in terms of interior equipment. Among the things MotorWeek highlights that seem weirdly out of place today include the passenger front airbag and, among the variety of old fashioned controls scattered throughout he cabin, the hilarious equalizer controls for the 10-speaker Blaupunkt stereo.
