1987 Porsche 924s "the Speed Of A 944 But The Size Of 924--super Car! "s" on 2040-cars

This is an auction of 5 days and really it has a low reserve. I want to move on to another Porsche collectible.

The Porsche 924 S   is a result of adding 1 + 2 equaling a S model. A 924S bhp was increased to 150 bhp in 1986 , 2.5L, and a welcomed improvement in suspension.

For the 1986 to 1988 model years the car acquired the power plant from the 944 model and became the Porsche 924S.

About 75 % of total produced in 1987, (8,940)was sent to the USA market.

The car has all the options for the 1987 model year and radio was upgraded to a premium aftermarket radio.

I am the second owner and this probably is the reason for the high rating of 70 in the Auto Check Vehicle History report.

The car’s history is very open, clean and clear. The Porsche was bought in Jacksonville, FL, serviced by a world class Porsche dealer in Jacksonville. Service history is available and included with all manuals. There was no major service done other then required to the car in 28 years, but every required maintenance was done on time. 

No accidents, yes the tires are new and spare has the same wheel pattern.

The car was bought from the original owner and then bought for its future collectability.

The car is exciting to drive. A car with this low curb weight and 150 bhp is very very surprising. Incredible performance…

All maintenance is up to date. Since the car does not get driven a lot, the gas tank has been emptied once every four years and fuel filter changed every 3 oil changes.

If you would like more photos or would like to look at the car, it will be available Friday and Saturday for review.

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

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.

Our hats are off to Porsche's 2014 911 Turbo Cabriolets

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Porsche has just debuted its two latest decapitated rocket sleds today at the LA Auto Show, the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo S Cabriolet, which share their coupe counterparts' 520-horsepower and 560-hp 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engines. That kind of power ought separate a lot of hats (and toupees!) from heads.
The rear-engined Porsches put their power down through all four wheels, which allows them to launch from 0-60 in 3.3 seconds or less (the Turbo S Cab takes just 3.1 seconds), and both of them top out at 195 mph.
The 911 Turbo Cabriolet starts at $160,700, while the Turbo S Cabriolet can be had for a grand total of $193,900 (plus $950 for destination). Is the S model's 40 extra horsepower worth $33,200? We're not so sure, but we imagine Porsche won't have any trouble selling it.
