For sale, by private owner: 1994 Porsche 968 Cabriolet with 6-Speed manual transmission, both rear seat configurations (2+2 / storage), and in
very good condition.
I'm the personal owner, and welcome calls and texts to (626) 219-0269. We live in Marietta, GA, a suburb just north of Atlanta.
The 968 currently has 73,308 miles on it (will increase slightly due to weekend use and test drives) and is in very good running and driving
condition. The title is clean, clear, and in my name. I purchased it from the original owner and have the original window sticker as well as
many records since new (pictured). I have two master keys as well as the original Porsche wheel lock keys, all owner's manuals, and all
accessories including all trunk tools, both top tools, tonneau cover (pictured), car cover, original donut spare, and original Porsche inflator
kit. I do not have the original radio, but the aftermarket CD player sounds good. The tires are in good shape with more than 50% tread. There
are some areas of wear, outlined in the condition notes, below. There are no warning lights or alerts and it has a passing emissions certificate
that I'll include to the new owner. I do not have to top off fluids and it does not leak fluid on the ground. The AC blows cold, the heat blows
hot, and the HVAC system vent positions and blower are responsive. Yes, I would trust it in a drive across the country -- it is ready to go.
Please note in the pictures that I show only the storage bin configuration for rear seats. The rear seat configuration is not shown, and is
included in parts (seats + seat belts).
Features
- 6-Speed Manual Transmission
- Powered front seats
- Power windows, mirrors, and locks
- Rear Storage bin configuration (instead of seats, pictured) AND rear 2+2 seat configuration
Condition Notes
- The top of the driver's side door panel needs refinishing (pictured)
- There is one dent, along the top crease of the front right fender above the front right wheelwell (pictured) -- the quote for dentless repair
is $500, quote is included with the car
- There is road rash along the bottom of the front air dam (pictured)
- The front floormats have been covered with plastic covers since new, and are in very good condition.
- The convertible top is currently in manual mode, which allows it to be put up and down without turning the car all the way off per Porsche
owner's manual procedure. (However, the power convertible top motors DO work.)
- The convertible top is newer than the car (originally grey, now black) and does not leak. The rear window cleans up nicely and is mostly
clear.
- The driver's seat bolster shows some expected wear from use, as does the shift knob. Both are pictured.
- The center console / armrest plastic "hinge" is broken.
- The rearward powered vertical adjustment of the driver's seat does not work; a new Porsche OEM switch is included to be installed at your
option.
Terms
- Communication is key. I'm flexible regarding these terms if contacted before the auction ends, and welcome calls or texts to my Google Voice
number, (626) 219-0269
- I am NOT a dealer. There are NO FEES. The price you bid is the price you pay. I have the title in my name and in my hands, ready to hand
to you when you pay.
- The PayPal deposit is $200 and must be paid within 24 hours of the end of the auction. The deposit amount is credited towards the total
purchase price.
- If you fail to send a $200 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it.
- I won't accept PayPal payment other than the $200 deposit.
- The balance of the purchase price (minus the $200 deposit) is due within 14 days UNLESS you we work out an alternative timeline BEFORE THE
AUCTION ENDS. I'm flexible; the more communication the better. I give two weeks because if you're traveling to come pick up the vehicle that
gives you a chance to get a cheap flight and schedule your trip time.
- If you pay a deposit but do not pay the balance within 14 days I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it. I'm flexible;
the more communication the better.
- Please, no dealers or curbstoners. I will not fill out a title with a purchase price of less than you paid. I will be putting the buyer's
name and purchase date on the title.
- It is OK if you're using a bank loan to purchase the vehicle; however, have funding and preapproval in place BEFORE bidding or making an
offer. Not being able to get a loan AFTER the auction ends is not a good excuse.
- If you're showing up in person we will be doing the sale transaction at my bank so that cash, check, or loan funds can be verified. You will
need to be around during bank business hours so please plan your trip accordingly.
- I'm happy to help with meeting the shipper(s) if you plan to have it shipped. However, you are responsible for setting up and paying for
shipping. The balance must be paid in full before I release the vehicle to a shipper.
- I'm willing to deliver the car to you for $0.50 / mile for distances over 50 miles. The balance must be paid in full before I begin my trip.
- I will not negotiate after the auction.
- I'm not interested in trades. This is a purchase-only auction.
- I do not provide financing.
- I'll provide a standardized, non-notarized bill of sale from the state of Georgia. If your state requires additional documentation, such as
a notarized bill of sale, please let me know and I'll provide it to you at no cost to you.
- The vehicle will come with a recent (within the last two weeks) passing emissions certificate. If you're local and within the Georgia clean
air zones you can use this for registration.
- I welcome local inspections before the auction ends. I live within convenient driving distance of dealers and independent mechanics. I can
recommend one or you can find your own. When searching use the cross streets of Lower Roswell Rd and Johnson Ferry Rd in Marietta, GA 30068.
You are responsible for any inspection costs to the local mechanic; however, there are no fees from me to drop the car off to have it checked
out.
- Do not ASSUME any details about the vehicle. If something is not listed or you have a question, don't be shy. I welcome calls and texts!
- All vehicles are subject to local sale. Until a deposit is received from the winning bidder it is subject to local sale, thus voiding the
auction. If a vehicle sells locally and eBay allows me to end the auction early, I'll do it. Note that within the final 24 hours eBay does not
allow an auction to end early; however, until a deposit is received it is still subject to local sale and the auction is void if it sells locally
before a deposit is received. Once a deposit is received it will no longer be for sale locally.
- If picking up the vehicle in person I'm happy to pick you up from the rental vehicle drop-off location, Atlanta airport, AmTrak station, or
bus station. There is no fee from me to do this. I'll also make sure the vehicle has a full tank of gas, tires are properly inflated, and it's
ready for a driving trip back. In other words, I'll treat you like a person and how I'd expect to be treated if I were buying a vehicle on eBay.
- I'm not a dealer. I can't provide a temporary license tag. My state of GA tag will stay with me in GA and is not included with the vehicle.
Please do your research to stay legal when driving back home, especially if through or across state lines as each state may have different
rules. I will provide you with the title and a bill of sale.

When the tragic news first came in that actor Paul Walker had been killed in a car crash, family, friends and fans were left searching for answers. They now have at least one key question answered, with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department blaming "unsafe speed" for the fatal accident.
According to a statement released by the LACSD, "Investigators determined the cause of the fatal solo-vehicle collision was unsafe speed for the roadway conditions". The investigation into the November, 2013 crash determined that Walker's 2005 Porsche Carrera GT had been driven by his business partner and racer, Roger Rodas, at speeds between 80 and 93 miles per hour - less than the 100+ mph initially suspected, but still far too fast for the road on which they were traveling, which carried a posted limit of 45 mph.
In the investigation into the death of the Fast & Furious star and his friend, some people were quick to finger the Porsche in which they were riding as the culprit. The Carrera GT does, after all, have the reputation of being a notoriously difficult car to control. But after an exhaustive investigation, law enforcement officials in California have vindicated the car and dismissed any mechanical fault as the cause of the accident.

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below.

J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.
