Miami, Florida, United States
|
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:
Everything in the car is as original as possible, with the following exceptions:
Small issues to be addressed by the new owner:

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
One Lap of America, with three times the madness
Tue, May 15 2018Instead of celebrating last weekend face down in a sombrero full of tequila-spiked OJ and a few lime wedges, 71 racing teams with one set of tires each and no support crews began Cinco De Mayo — and this year's 35th running of the One Lap of America — by hitting the wet skid pad at Tire Rack's headquarters in South Bend, Ind. There were Porsches, Vettes, Camaros and BMWs galore. There was a Miata, a vintage NSX, a Honda S2000 and even an old VW Rabbit. There were GTIs, the odd Evo and, oh yeah, six Toyotas, a couple of Vipers and a couple of GTRs. When the skidding stopped, a 2011 BMW 1M emerged triumphant and led the pack out into the heartland, where it will spend 5,000 miles this week hitting road courses, dragstrips and time trials at tracks as far west as Denver, as south as Fort Worth and then New Orleans. From there, it will barrel north through Mississippi, Alabama, Nashville, Kentucky and back home again to Tire Rack in Indiana. Twenty events, eight venues, with a three-hour window for each event. It's a nonstop, no-sleep, one-week road trip comprising 150-ish friends and brothers, partiers and pro racing drivers, spouses and other family-member combo packs. Some will never speak to each other again, some might end up divorced, some might get married. All of them are nuts. I know this because I made three laps. Three laps I will never forget.LAP ONE: 1984 Vehicle: 1984 Dodge Van Team #0: Jean Lindamood (Jennings), Walker Evans, Parnelli Jones I was present for the inaugural 1984 One Lap of America because I worked at Car and Driver back then and so did Brock Yates. He was the guy who came up with the clandestine, illegal, unsanctioned Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash from Connecticut to Redondo Beach, Calif. It ran five times in the 1970s, with Yates joining Dan Gurney in a Ferrari Daytona for the second run. They won, Gurney insisting that "at no time did we exceed 175 miles per hour." One Lap was born of Cannonball nostalgia (read: Brock was bored), and I was beyond game for it. After securing a van from Dodge and two giant decals for the van sides, along with $5,000 in sponsorship from local Detroit Stroh's Brewery, I coaxed my friend, nine-time Baja 1000 winner Walker Evans, into running One Lap by suggesting he didn't have a hair on his ass if he refused. Then I suggested that if he didn't get his best friend and longtime road trip buddy, Parnelli Jones, to go with us, I would actually have to drive the van, too.
2015 Porsche Cayenne GTS proves performance is relative
Thu, Nov 20 2014The Turbo may be the most powerful model in the Cayenne range, but the GTS is arguably the enthusiast's choice. (In so far as a 4,500-pound crossover can be considered an "enthusiast's choice," anyway.) And now, after refreshing the rest of the Cayenne lineup, Porsche has revealed the new Cayenne GTS, alongside its new 911 GTS stablemate, here at the LA Auto Show. Like the new Cayenne S, the new GTS drops the previous version's atmospheric V8 for a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6, but ups the output to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque to propel Zuffenhausen's portliest to 62 in a scant 5.2 seconds. Alongside the power upgrade, the GTS gets a lowered air suspension and sportier exhaust, the beefier brakes from the Cayenne Turbo and an upgraded aero kit to help with the whole barn-door-profile thing. Just don't expect all that extra kit and the prestige of a Porsche badge on your crossover to come cheap, with prices starting at $95,500 (plus $995 destination).
