This 928 S4 is hands down a fun car to drive and makes me smile every time I drive her.  She starts effortlessly and produces that strong sounding rumble letting you know that you got a 316hp 5.0L V8 sitting under the hood.  The automatic transmission goes through all the gears and the suspension feels tight.  It accelerates, shifts, and stops just like it should.  The paint and body is in decent shape, but we repainted the sunroof and front bumper due to the clear coat flaking off.  This car looks good considering it is 26 years old.  It also has that rare GTS style rear bumper panel with the reflective strip that runs between the tail lights.  Haven't seen too many like that, but it does make it stand out from all the other S4s.  Very sexy looking car.

This car was recently gone through by our Porsche 928 technician/specialist.  Some of the recent work done to this car includes:

Speedometer serviced and tested by a speedo calibration service shop
Smog pump belt
New front and rear Velozza tires
New CD/radio unit
New battery
Horn repaired
Passenger side taillight repaired
Sunroof and front bumper painted
All 4 wheels painted

The car does have some flaws, so please check out the photos.  The dash has some cracks and the driver seat has some tears.  The passenger seat is actually pretty decent.  There are a few stone chips (as expected) on the front.  There may be little scratches or tiny dents here and there, but nothing major.  The AC does not work.  The passenger side fog light plastic lens has a crack in it, but the light still works.  Original spare tire and tools are missing.

The description above was done to the best of my ability, however, with all pre-owned vehicles, the condition of any vehicle is subjective to the viewer.  We recommend that any potential buyer to come out and inspect the vehicle themselves or reach out to us with any questions.  Shop open Mon-Fri (9am-5pm) Sat by appointment only.  The mileage represents the actual miles when the car was placed on eBay.  The vehicle may accrue a few more miles from moving around.  If you have any questions or would like more information call the shop at (717)838-5660 or if you are a texter (717)842-0177.  EBay messages work too.

Condition Disclaimer
Vehicle is sold as is - with no warranties or guaranties expressed or implied.

We reserve the right to end any auction early should we deem it necessary.  However this is extremely rare and has never happened on my watch, but we thought you should know.  It's possible.

The balance of the purchase price MUST be paid for by cash in person, cashier's check (like you would get from most banks & credit unions), or bank wire transfer.  We do not accept personal checks, credit cards, Paypal, drafts, or escrow services.  We will work very hard to make the process go smoothly and quickly for you.  If you arrive to pick up your vehicle and do not have an acceptable form of payment you will be denied delivery of the vehicle until an acceptable form of payment is received.  These are the only forms of payment that we accept, so if this is not acceptable to you then please do not bid.  Final payment must be made within 7 days of the close of the auction.  There are no refunds or cancellations once payment has been made as all sales are final on all eBay related transactions.  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

McLaren P1 squares off against Porsche 918 in Evo track battle

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Evo's side-by-side comparison of the McLaren P1 against the Porsche 918 Spyder isn't the first time we've seen England and Germany's ultimate automotive weapons sized up together; last month, Autocar tested them over the standing mile, with a Ducati 1199 Superleggera playing the joker. Evo throws a few curves at its test, though, taking the supercars to Anglesey Circuit in Wales to see which will lay down the fastest lap time with scribe Jethro Bovington at the wheel. In case the numbers haven't yet been seared into your memory, while both are assisted by electric motors, the 3,069-pound, rear-wheel drive P1 gets on with 903 horsepower and 664 pound-feet from a 3.8-liter, twin-turbocharged V8. The 3,750-pound, all-wheel-drive 918 Spyder does its job with 795 hp and 575 lb-ft surging out of a naturally aspirated, 4.6-liter V8. We're not told know which circuit layout he uses for the test, but both cars comfortably eclipse the mark set by the fastest coupe Evo's driven around it so far, the Ferrari 458 Speciale. Then, in an epilogue occasioned by a tire change, one of the supercars comfortably eclipses its own time again, before Bovington declares one the master of the track and the other the ruler of the street. Enjoy finding out which is which in the video above.

2014 Porsche Panamera 4S Executive

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

If the idea of a Porsche sedan (or, long hatchback) is still off-putting to you, then you might want to look away now. For 2014, the polarizing Panamera has received a midcycle refresh bringing slightly different styling, as well as adding two new models to the lineup, the S E-Hybrid and the stretched-wheelbase Executive. Having focused most of my recent trip to Germany on a First Drive of the intriguing plug-in Panamera, I also got to spend some time with the roomier Executive model.
Offered in both 4S and Turbo guise, the Panamera Executive has been stretched by almost six inches for the sole purpose of improving rear passenger space. Although it's hard to imagine anyone would willingly buy a Porsche and opt to sit in the back seat, I'd have to say that if I'm going to be chauffeured around in a car, why not make it a Porsche? For the most part, though, I'm guessing that many Panamera Executive sedans will be owned by people who want to one-up their buddy driving a stretched BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Dealers mobilize to protect their margins from automaker subscription services

Fri, Aug 24 2018

Six individual auto brands — Lincoln, Cadillac, Porsche, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo — have established or are trialing a vehicle subscription service in the U.S. Three third-party companies — Flexdrive, Clutch and Carma — run brand-agnostic subscription services. And three automakers — Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and General Motors — have also launched short-term rental services. Dealers, afraid of how these trends might affect their margins, are building political and lawmaking campaigns to protect their revenue streams. So far, three states are investigating automaker subscriptions, and Indiana has banned any such service until next year. It's certain that those three states are the first fronts in a long political and legal battle. Powerful dealer franchise laws mandate the existence of dealers and restrict how automakers are allowed to interact with customers to sell a vehicle. On top of that, Bob Reisner, CEO of Nassau Business Funding & Services, said, "Dealers and their associations are among the strongest political operators in many states. They as a group are difficult for state politicians to vote against." In California earlier this year, the state Assembly debated a bill with wide-ranging provisions to protect against what the California New Car Dealers Association called "inappropriate treatment of dealers by manufacturers." One of those provisions stipulated that subscription services need to go through dealers, but that item got stripped out when dealers and manufacturers agreed to discuss the matter further. In Indiana, Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a moratorium on all subscription programs by dealers or manufacturers until May 1, 2019, to give legislators more time to investigate. Dealers in New Jersey have taken their campaign to the state capitol, asking that the cars in subscription programs get a different classification for registration purposes. Automakers run the current subscription services and own the vehicles. Sign-ups and financial transactions happen online or through apps, leaving dealers to do little more than act as fulfillment centers to various degrees, with little legal recourse as to compensation amounts when they're called on to deliver or service a car. That's a bad base to build on for business owners who've sunk millions of dollars into their operations.
