1994 Porsche 968 coupe I bought from original owner who bought it at a dealership in mobile Alabama on 6/30/93 and
has been in Mississippi since day one.
Grand Prix white with cashmere interior
All original has Porsche radio and cd changer that work great . Has complete Porsche tool kit, red spare, and air
pump. 2 sets of keys, manuals .
Cold AC
Runs great , smooth, shifts well, stops great
New tires, Less than 50 miles of a set of Michelin pilot sport as/3 s
Just changed oil with Valvoline VR1 20w50, and a maule air filter and oil filter. And used lubro moly jectron in
the tank.
Like I previously stated I bought this car from the original owner , he had just periodically driven over the
years. I drove it back to my home about 50 miles away and it ran flawlessly. Upon getting it home I changed the
oil, filters and put a new set of michelins pilot sports on it ( the old tires were date coded 2004 and looked
brand new even had the nipples intact)and had it detailed out. The reason I'm selling is a S65 AMG is now available
that I've been trying to get my hands on, and need garage space. If the 968 doesn't sell no big deal I'll keep and
let the value continue to climb. I've taking a lot of pics and pics of the very few issues with the car, I m not
going to hide anything. I'll list a few things the car either needs or what I would do if I keep it.
Future needs:
Sunroof goes up with the switch but when you re attach you have to manually tighten it back down. I looked it up
and it's a common problem and I think the tensioners need adjusting.
The timing belt ( have paperwork) was done 5/7/07 at the dealer at 45k miles, An fit has been driven very little
since that time.
The cup rims do have curb rash , I would get a wheel refinisher to repaint and smooth out the rim lip.
The driver seat minus the bolster is in good shape , does have a hint of patina. Still looks and sits well just
maybe something to consider having the bolster area repaired.
The last issue is the odometer quit ( speedometer works fine) on me, I've read this is a common problem with these
plastic gears loosing teeth and I've looked them up and they are about $25 bucks and a few hours worth of work.
The PO had the clutch replaced, battery , brake master. Cylinder and booster all done in 2013 from an independent
mechanic in the area he moved to, just wanted to note.
Also I'd like to add that I think I have the car priced well in order take care of theses issues.
The car cranks, runs, shifts extremely well and the body is straight with no big dents or scratches. Still presents
very well! Also just want to note that I've owned 911's, 928 GT, 912 and this is by far the best handling and most
fun Porsche I've driven/owned!

Porsche still deciding on one or two new 911 plug-in hybrids

Tue, May 29 2018

Back in March, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume told Autocar that the coming Porsche 911 plug-in hybrid "will be the most powerful 911 we've ever had." That quote portended a 992-series 911 with 700 horsepower or more. A new report in Auto Express, however, suggests Porsche is having energetic debates about just what the 911's hybrid strategy will be, and that the only agreed-upon plug-in hybrid 911 so far is a milder version to sit in the middle of the range. Putting all our rumors in a row, in January, Automobile reported on an electrically-assisted 911 with 485 hp and 561 pound-feet of torque. The new AE piece effectively endorses that, saying the mid-range hybrid would follow the program established by the all-wheel drive Cayenne e-Hybrid that produces a combined 455 hp and 516 lb-ft. The 911 would naturally use a flat-six instead of the Cayenne's 3.0-liter V6, and the sports car would be tuned for better sound response and sharper reflexes. AE says fuel economy for this hybrid should be at least 80 eMPG, with emissions of less than 80 grams per kilometer. The current base Carrera is currently rated at a maximum 38.2 mpg in the UK, with minimum emissions of 169 g/km. The hybrid, fitted with a double-clutch gearbox and Porsche's mechanical all-wheel-drive system, could run from a stop to 62 miles per hour in less than four seconds, making it more efficient than a base Carrera and much faster than a Carrera 4S. AE says there remains only "the potential for Porsche to add a second, more powerful hybrid 911," and says its sources claim that's what's "causing the most consternation behind closed doors." This one would be the twin-turbocharged, 700-hp beastie that, as a series production car, would have a hard time not usurping the 540-hp Turbo, 580-hp Turbo S, and 607-hp Turbo S Exclusive. True, the hybrid would be handicapped with a 550-pound battery pack, but the instant acceleration and handling benefits of electric AWD — with no connection between the axles — could provide the final edge over the other three. As such, it makes sense that there'd be a whole lot of debate about a flagship 911 hybrid. On the other hand, such a monster seems like an eventuality in view of Porsche's electrified aspirations, the lessons gained from the 918 Hybrid and the 919 Hybrid Le Mans racer, and the fact that CEO Blume has already spoken. The Stuttgart carmaker expects a sales mix of 25 percent electric, 25 percent hybrid, and 50 percent conventional powertrains by 2025.

Porsche forum claims eco-friendly 911 Blu coming to Frankfurt

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The fiftieth anniversary of the Porsche 911 has been a nearly year-long affair, with unique tributes and even a special anniversary edition with plenty of retro throwbacks. The party is expected to continue through the end of 2013, and if one 911 enthusiast forum is right, we'll see yet another special edition model near the anniversary of the original car's September 1963 debut, when it arrives at next month's Frankfurt Auto Show.
It's called the 911 Blu, and where the 911 50 Years Edition was more expensive than a 911 Carrera S hardtop, the Blu would be an entry level special edition. That's right, a limited run car that actually slots in at the very bottom of the 911 range. According to Porsche forum 911UK.com, the new car would be priced at 74,600 euros ($98,718 at today's rates) or 64,750 pounds. That undercuts the price of a base 911 in Germany by nearly 16,000 euros and in the UK by nearly 8700 pounds (although to be fair, it's roughly identical to the price of a base 911 C2S in the US).
This 911 will reportedly feature a detuned flat-six with 300 horsepower and 211 pound-feet of torque.
