1985.5 Porsche 944 base model, non turbo, paired with a NICE set of Fuchs 951 / 911 wheels.  I have owned this car for almost one decade and drove this car all around until it got bumped in the back.  Car was no garage queen.  This car has always gotten from point A to point B and everywhere else I've needed to stop in between.  Unfortunately I need to sell this car due to job relocation.  

This car starts and runs but will need a battery. The one in it is not mine.

 The odometer reads 178,658 miles, however; Porsche odometers are known to not always be reliable.  This one was intermittent.  Exterior color is grey.  The paint shows her age as it is faded and worn off the front.  Black leather interior. There is all the normal wear of 30 year old car.

  Engine starts and runs well.  Transaxle is good and it shifts smooth and tight, clutch is good, exhaust good. Front end and ball joints in good condition as well.  The power windows work well, as do adjustable side mirrors.  New speakers installed, sound system replaced with AM/FM radio & CD player.  They work well, loud.  Faceplate for system is in center console along with a remote control.  Door locks work but passenger side key does not.   AC no longer works, heat does. 
Fuchs wheels are straight and true, without curb rash, chips, or dents; as shown in photos.  Front wheels are 7" wide, rear are 8" wide.  Tires are great with most --if not all tread still there.  Headlights occasionally stick up in the on position, shown in photos.  The sunroof gear may be going.  I last used it a few years back and had some trouble closing it so I didn't bother to use it again and risk the too common Porsche sunroof leak.

A few years ago I found myself parked alongside other 944s and took note that my car sat significantly lower than all of the others.  Other drivers suggested it could be a European model, however, I have no idea.  It was only guessed by the other drivers.  I have yet to figure out why it does. 

Please feel free to contact with any questions or if you like to see the car.

Porsche to offer next-gen 911 GT3 with a manual

Mon, Nov 2 2015

Porsche may have offended some of the purists among its customer base when it rolled out the current 911 GT3 with only a dual-clutch transmission. But according to Car and Driver, the next GT3 will get a stick again. The development comes as the good folks at Zuffenhausen (and Weissach) attempt to balance the instant-shifting benefits of a DCT with the direct involvement of a conventional manual transmission. On the one hand, Porsche introduced a new seven-speed manual with the 991-generation model. On the other, it didn't offer that manual (or any manual for that matter) on the GT3 or even the more hardcore GT3 RS. In response to customer demand for a more back-to-basics approach, Porsche is preparing to introduce a new variant expected to be called the 911 R, with a manual, no turbos, and skinnier tires for a more linear driving experience. And the Cayman GT4 was launched only with a manual instead of a DCT. "The GT3 is full of systems that make sense on the track, but for the purist, there may be something lost," Porsche GT chief Andreas Preuninger told C/D. "It is our long-term goal to have the customer decide between the two approaches." In addition to the DCT, the current GT3 also features a four-wheel steering system. The shift (so to speak) back to a manual option in the next GT3 will undoubtedly come as a welcome development for those purists offended by the DCT-only option – to say nothing of Porsche's movement towards SUVs, diesels, and hybrids. That manual option may not, however, offer all seven forward cogs available in the stick-shift Carrera. One way or another, though, we don't doubt that most customers would still go for the dual-clutch option over the single on they can actuate themselves. Related Video:

Father-son team grows close by building tuned Porsche

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

We've seen several heartwarming videos of kids bonding over cars with their parents, whether racing together or giving them as gifts. The story of Leh Keen and his father McGrath, though, is somewhat different. Not many dads are looking for a vehicle quite this mental.
As Leh tells it, his dad saw a video online of one of the wild Porsches from Japanese tuner Rauh-Welt Begriff and decided that he needed one of the creations in his own garage. Since Leh knows something about cars himself as a driver for Alex Job Racing in the United SportsCar Championship, McGrath put his son in charge of managing the build from the company.
When the car made it to the US for completion from Rauh's famed builder Nakai, father and son bonded over the red, widebody 993-platform 911. The final product is certainly eye-catching. Scroll down to watch the video that features not only an engrossing father-son tale but also a seriously wicked, tuned Porsche from one of Japan's finest.

Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.
