  • Description

    We are re-listing this 968 because the previous winner did not follow through with the transaction.  Please only bid if you are serious, this is a no reserve auction so bid according to what you value this car.  

      While we were waiting for ebay to finish with the non paying bidder resolution we made some upgrades to the car.  We had the front bumper repaired as well as the side skirts for the rock rash, scratches etc..  that they had.  We also replaced the center console cover with a very nice genuine leather 968 console that is new from germany.  I'll upload photos of the repairs.

     

    This is a very cool and clean West Coast Porsche 968 cab that was recently traded-in by a WA state owner.  This Porsche is being sold with NO RESERVE, we really will let this sell for what ever the bidding ends at so Please don't waste your time or ours by bidding with no intention of buying, buy bidding and winning this Auction you are legally purchasing a vehicle from us!

      

      No for the fun stuff, like this car!!!  The color was a special color that was available on the 911's and 968's in this period, the code is 57 and the name is Violet Blue Metallic.  The pictures don't really do it justice, in real life it's stunning.  We have never seen another one in this factory special color.  The interior is black with the standard options that these came with, genuine leather, full power seats including lumbar etc...  

     

    Lets talk about condition, overall the paint is in excellent shape, deffinelty a garaged car.  We had it professionally polished and there are very few defects.  Going around the car starting at the front bumper.  One small nick on the drivers door impact strip that has been touched up, the rear quarter has a couple of very light scratches, very minor.  Where the trunk lid meets the bumper there is a eraser size chip, then not much to talk about on the passanger side.  The lower rock guards have some normal wear and tear rock rash.  The front windshield has a large crack.  The top is in excellent condition, the rear window has been cleaned it's a little hazy though, not too bad and has a lot of life left in it.

     

       The interior is clean, the leather is in great shape.  There is some wear on the outer bolster driver's seat.  Most of the power seat switches work fine, a few take a little wiggling will most likely need the contacts cleaned.  The dash is ultra clean no cracks, temp display works along with everything else including the stereo.  The Driver's door card is missing the lower cubby and the speaker grill, the previous owner removed it to fix it and it has been lost.  The steering wheel is in great shape, it's genuine leather.  Carpets are clean, do damage.

     

       Mechanically this 968 is clean, unfortunelty we don't have any service records, they were not kept in the car and were lost.  We know from research that the clutch was replace in 2011, and that the cam belt has been replaced at some time because it has been marked for installation.  The fluids appear to be brand-new, very little if any oil seaping on the engine.  There is a moist spot on the rear splash guard, very little and it isn't dripping.  

     

       Driving is great, very quiet, strong engine, gearbox shifts smoothly.

     

      Please use the pictures as a reference of the cars condition, we've included 100 photos and more are available upon request.

     

    Things to dial this car in:

      -New windshield(Available from Porsche)

       -Top is in manual mode, unsure if the power motor is functioning correctly

      - Replace lower part of drivers door card(Available from Porsche for $320 new)

      - Driver's door needs adusted slightly

      -Probably a few other items that we don't know about.

     

     

     

    Jump on this oportunity to own a very rare and fun Porsche.  Please call or email with any questions, if you are in the area come take it for a spin.

     

    Re-Posted notes from the first auction:

     

    This is for buyers wondering about after the sale details. We can store the Porsche for up to 60 days indoors for no charge for the winning bidder as long as the deposit is paid and then the car is paid in full in the required time frame. This will allow plenty of time for people to make arrangements for shipping or travel to pick it up. Call with any questions. Thanks

    Please Note: As you can see in the photos I don't have the cover for the convertible top when it's in the down position.

    Please Note: The general Ebay information shows that we will accept a money order for payment, that is not correct, please read our detailed payment instructions. Money Orders will not be accepted. Also the $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of the end of the auction. This is a no reserve auction so bid accordingly, if you don't see something in the photos or description then it's probably not included, please contact us with any questions.

    I just wanted to clarify some condition items that I've been recieving phone calls about. Many have noticed that the center console cover is missing in the photos, we do have that cover and I was having it recovered, it has a few splits in it, so it's included in the auction. Second the front tires have about 6/32 of rubber left and are in good shape. The rear tires are matching and have 3/32 of rubber left. They are evenly worn but if you have a long trip home we may want to look into replacing them. If someone was interested we could get some tires at our cost. The current tires are 225/50R16 Yokohama S drive tires, unfortunately I haven't been able to find any matching tire, please contact me if you will need the rear tires replaced for driving it home. I wanted to add a couple of more photos of the front bumper. As I said in the description the bottom of the front bumper has some damage. The bumper must be just about the height of parking stops. I've maxed out the photo limit for the ebay listing but I have additional photos available, please call if you want them and I'll send them to you. Thanks Greg

    I just wanted to add this to the listing, it's from Jeff at the 968 registry, he's able to clarify the color; Hi, Jeff from the Porsche club 968 register. Nice car you have for sale and what a great color. A couple of corrections for you and some info. The color is actually a standard offering for 1994 called Amaranth Violet, code T3. It is very rare. Only 5 North American 968 cabs were produced in the color and of the 5, this is the only one with a black interior. Of the 5, it is also 1 of 2 with a 6 speed manual. Good luck with the sale. Jeff 

     


    On Oct-16-13 at 11:44:46 PDT, seller added the following information:

    I've had some phone calls on the condition of the top so I just wanted go over it a bit. The black fabric is in excellent condition, no rips, tears or even scuffing. The white stitching is also great, it's not stained or starting to unravel. All of the studs are there for attaching the cover which is missing. It has both tools for releasing the top at the windshield frame. The rear plastic window is it's only weak spot, there are no tears or cracks and the plastic is still pretty soft and bendable. It has some spotting and roughness that is off white and it's a little cloudy. We have a company that can clean and polish these rear windows, i'll be sending the car out to them on the 17th to see if they can improve it's condition. Please call with any questions.
