I purchased this car on September 2013. The previous owner had the car in New Jersey since 2001. He purchased it used with 83,952 miles. The prior owner had it from new but I don’t have that history. It was purchased new in Massachusetts.

 

Both owners were enthusiasts and took very good care of the car. All the regular maintenance has been performed.

Mechanics

                    No known issues. The car runs good. Smooth idle, no smoke, no odd noises or clunks, no leaks. Good acceleration and performance. The car was maintained by Powertech in Rockaway, New Jersey where the timing belt and water pump were replaced in October of 2012.

 

Body

          The car has not suffered any severe damage. The previous owner said there were two minor accidents requiring body work. The repairs were done professionally and are not noticeable.

          In October 2013 I had the rear quarter windows and rubber seals replaced along with the windshield. The windshield was showing some slight pitting and the rear quarter windows had some spots that would not come off. The rear section from the door back were repainted along with the front and rear bumpers which had some dings.

The work was done by Sports Car Collision in Ferndale Michigan, one of the best body shops in the country. The paint match was spot on and the work looks great.

          The rest of the body and paint is in good shape for a 20 year old car. It’s not perfect. On a scale of 1-10 I’d give it a 7.

Hatch struts work fine. Front spoiler is not cracked or broken.

 

Interior

          No tears or cracks in any of the leather. Leather is still soft and looks great.

No cracks in the dash. There’s a screw hole in the side of the console where the PO mounted an early cell phone but it’s not too noticeable. The luggage cover is starting to fade but the elastic is still good.

The carpet is in good shape with no stains but it is starting to look old.

There’s one of those tube subwoofers and an amp mounted on the rear deck. It sounds good but takes up space. It has Pioneer speakers which all work fine.

All the interior lights work as they should. The new Clarion NX503 has rear camera capability but there is no camera.

 

I like this 93 GTS and would keep it but my expanding business leaves no room to keep it or time to enjoy driving it. I have a 1991 928 S4 that I plan to keep and tinker with.

 

I’ve tried to be upfront on the condition of the car but I’m sure they’ll be questions.

I can be contacted via email bob@classic9leathershop.com

 

The car is available for inspection in Dearborn Heights, Michigan. A Pre Purchase Inspection is welcome but you’ll have to make your own arrangements.

 

Serious inquiries only.  I am not interested in any trades, investments, or business opportunities

Robb Report chooses Porsche 911 as its Car of the Year

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Robb Report has picked the seventh-generation Porsche 911 Carrera S as its 2013 Car of the Year, saying the two-door captivated its judges with "agility, driving dynamics and balance." The German coupe bested 12 others who were also in the running - the impressive list of nominees included the BMW M5, Audi S8, Ferrari FF, Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG and the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.
Judging involved more than just throwing darts at pictures on the wall, as the publication enlisted a panel of automotive experts to test drive each vehicle for close evaluation. The panelists included 100 members of the Robb Report Club (comprised of top corporate executives and influential readers), Editor-in-Chief Brett Anderson and automotive consultant Robert Ross. Full results of the competition will be revealed in the luxury magazine's March issue, hitting newsstands in about a week. For more information, visit Robb Report online or check out the full press release from Porsche below.

Which is quicker in the standing mile, a Subaru WRX STI or a Porsche Cayman?

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

The 2015 Subaru WRX STI and 2014 Porsche Cayman are both saddled with unfair reputations. The STI with its huge wing and gold wheels has the title of the ultimate boy-racer. On the other hand, Porsche brand snobs look down on he base Cayman as just a wannabe 911. In reality, they are both pretty fantastic performance cars. But what would happen if the two of them lined up at a stoplight, and maybe the guy in the suit in the Cayman started throwing some revs at the young man in the STI? Automobile decided to find out in a recent video pitting the two stereotyped hot rods against each other in a standing-mile drag race.
In terms of raw numbers, they are surprisingly close. Both use flat engines and six-speed manual transmissions here, but the Subaru has more power and torque. However, the Porsche makes up for it with 300 pounds less weight. Neither should have a problem with traction either thanks to the STI's sophisticated all-wheel-drive setup, and the Cayman's mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout.
The comparable specs certainly show themselves in the real world for the race. We're not going to give away the winner here because it's too exciting, but let's just say the finish is very, very close. Scroll down to watch both of them shrug off their stereotypes and show off their real performance.

Proof the world revolves around the Porsche Cayman

Sat, 27 Apr 2013

Or at least the world revolves underneath the Porsche Cayman, in the latest video showing off Stuttgart's mid-engine coupe. Porsche put an Easter egg in the world that spins triple-time, a "famous relative" of the Cayman hidden somewhere on the marble planet, and gave a Porsche Martini bag to one of the first 50 people who could point it out.
With more than 300 views there's no chance you'll win the bag, but you can still go on the treasure hunt in the video below.
