 **** VIN# II WILL GET OFF OF THE CAR WHEN I GET A CHANCE. I DID NOT HAVE IT HANDY AT TIME OF AD. *********

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 father. Over the years my father and I have restored over 6 antique cars together. We are now two busy with work and need the money and space to expand our growing business. I originally purchased this car in 2007 and it barely made it home. We pulled it into the garage and a short year later she was on the road and passed inspection from the state of New Jersey. I drove the car every day for months and had no problems. It than sat for over 3 years in my garage. In 2011 we moved it to one of our personal storage warehouses. It has been in a climate controlled garage since the day I had it. She is a beautiful driver and the first Porsche I ever had that doesn’t leak or burn oil. She isn’t in show quality yet but she is a perfect candidate for a finished restoration project.

Features I love about this Porsche:

The removable roof. It is like a big sun roof that is not see thru it power tilts up in the back and then can be removed by clips similar to a convertible top. The top can be stored in the hatch and secured down with the cars cargo net. When this top is off it’s like driving a convertible but still a coupe.

If you decided that you wanted to race this car you can simply take the power steering belt off and have stiff steering and not affect the rest of the car.

Standard features

Power windows, breaks, locks, roof and steering. It has AM, FM cassette tape. It also has a car phone but it never worked and I never received the phone part just the holder in the car.  

 

Small issues to be addressed by the new owner:

  • The passenger turn signal lens is broken

  • The grill is broken and allows lower vents to flop around

  • Body molding clips and seals need attention

  • Very small tare in the rear seat on the driver’s side.

  • Rims have lost their luster a little bit. There is no curb marks but could use a buff or possible repaint.

  • There are some racks in the dash cover from age and sun damage

  • Steering wheel shows signs of wear.

  • Carpet is original and a little faded

  • Foldable stock spare tire works and holds air the factory compressor is not in the car. You can buy one on eBay or at AutoZone

Major issues that I would address to finish the car.

  • Paint job needs help. It still has a shine on most of the car. It does have random scratches and chips on the car. I believe most can be buffed out maybe a little wet sand but you will need to do paint work on this car as well.

  • There is a small dent in the top of the passenger front fender approx. the palm of your hand. The metal is not creased so it can probably be pulled no paint work should be needed

  • There is a spider crack in the paint on the driver’s side rear bumper corner

Porsche working on turbo V12 for Putin limo project?

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Porsche is best known for building very well-regarded sports cars and better-selling utility vehicles. Come to the company with a big enough bag of cash, though, and the Porsche Engineering division can create just about anything. The group's past projects include working with Harley-Davidson, Mercedes-Benz and corporate cousin Audi, but if rumors prove true, then its latest partner might be the last one you'd expect.
Russian website Wroom reports that Porsche Engineering is building the engine for the Project Cortege government limousine project for Russian president Vladimir Putin. The mill is supposedly a turbocharged V12 displacing between 6.0- and 6.6-liters and making around 800 horsepower. When complete, it will reportedly be built by ZMZ with Russian-sourced parts.
The limo is expected to debut in 2017, according to Wroom, but it's just the beginning of Putin's grandiose plans, which also goes by the name of the Motorcade Project. The same platform is also meant to underpin several vehicles for use by the government, including an SUV, a small bus and a sedan. All of them would reportedly have a longitudinally mounted engine and all-wheel drive.

Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting

Sat, 11 Oct 2014



"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.
