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.
CARFAX DEPENDS ON ITS SOURCES FOR THE ACCURACY AND RELIABILITY OF ITS INFORMATION. THEREFORE, NO RESPONSIBILITY IS ASSUMED BY CARFAX OR ITS AGENTS FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THIS REPORT.

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you

Fri, 03 May 2013

The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.

Evo makes the case for the world's best driving road in Majorca

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

What good is a sports car if you haven't got a great place to drive it? It's a common refrain that we've heard time and time again. But few are as familiar with the problem as they are in the UK, where the number of people, cars on the road and traffic cameras keep growing to conspire against the joy of driving. Leave it to Evo, then, to depart in search of the greatest driving road in the world.
It's a pursuit that's taken the British car mag across Europe, most recently to Romania's Carpathian Mountains where it added the Transalpina Pass to its short list. But its latest journey has taken Evo to the Spanish island of Majorca, where Henry Catchpole found not one, but two spectacular driving roads from behind the wheel of the new Porsche Boxster GTS. We could drone on about the smooth, empty ribbons of twisting tarmac with excellent visibility and panoramic vistas... but you really want to see the video for yourself. Don't miss Evo's previous trip to Romania in the Jaguar F-Type, which we've included below, as well.

Magnus Walker and Alex Ross stop by Leno's garage with their 997 GT2

Mon, Feb 9 2015

The market is littered with Porsche 911 tuners, with names like 9ff, Gemballa and TechArt leading the field. Seldom do any two ever collaborate on a joint project, but that's just the kind of match that was made at Jay Leno's Garage. That's where Alex Ross of SharkWerks and restomodder Magnus Walker first met, sparking a collaboration that yielded the car you see here. And fittingly, they've brought it back to the garage to show off what resulted. Though Walker usually deals with older Elfens, this time he applied his eye for style on a more contemporary 2008 997 GT2, decking it out with grey stripes, orange bumpers, gold wheels and decals and a tartan-upholstered interior. He left the mechanical bits to Ross and company, who dropped the suspension and increased output to 650 horsepower at the wheels (775 at the crank), surpassing the stock GT2 and even the later GT2 RS. The result is pretty hard-core and old-school, but you'll want to watch the video above to see for yourself.
