1985.5 Porsche 944 Red, Black Leather, 115,000 Miles, Sunroof, Automatic on 2040-cars

Urbanna, Virginia, United States

This very nice 1985 1/2 is original with the exception of one re-paint.  It is factory optioned with sunroof, leather seats, 7 inch Fuchs on front, 8 inch Fuchs on rear and cruise control.  This car runs and drives great.  This is not a project.  Really, no excuses, it is a great driving car to take anywhere.  The only problems are the cruise control works when it wants, the rear hatch pins do not hold all of the time, the rear main seal leaks oil and the clock does not work.  It has slept in a climate controlled garage for the last 21 years that I know of.  I have most of the original documentation and the services are up to date including the timing belt and tensioner 300 miles ago.  The tires have less than 1,000 miles on them.  The seats have the original optional leather surfaces and are in very good condition.  That means that the leather is not ripped or torn but has some color worn off of the side bolster from sliding in and out and a thin wear spot on the seat bottom.  The original leather steering wheel has very little wear.  The AC works great and the heater valves function properly.  The dash is cracked.  The red paint shows well however there are numerous nicks and dings and imperfections from driving the car including a walnut ding on the roof.  The rock guard coating around the wheel openings is flaking off because the repaint was over the coating, see the pictures, it is not rust. The wheels are in very good condition with little to no curb rash.   Recent services include new motor mounts, complete tune, oil change and timing belt.  The original Blaupunkt was replaced with a Pioneer unit but I still have it.  

You will truly enjoy this unmodified well kept Porsche.

2015 Porsche Macan Turbo

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

I knew it was a softball question, but I asked it anyway. It's pretty standard for automakers to offer up some examples of competitors when they invite the media to drive a new vehicle for the first time. If not stated outright, it's just as standard for some journalist to query about the competitive set as soon as the Q&A begins. I knew full well that Porsche believes it has a valuable new niche to itself with the 2015 Macan (and especially with the Macan Turbo), but I wanted to hear the answer to the competitor cars question anyway.
Porsche CEO Matthias Müller didn't hesitate for a second to respond. With a half-smirk appropriate to an executive that is about to launch the (very probably) most profitable and best-selling product in his brand's lineup he chuckled, "Of course, I could be arrogant and say this car has no competitors..."
Arrogant? Well, the grinning Müller certainly didn't give off a humble vibe as he proceeded to count down a list of German and British utility vehicles from various classes that are clearly behind the pace of the Macan in either looks, luxury, or sporting prowess - Range Rover Sport, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLK among them.

Son of Porsche 911 designer recalls 1963 Frankfurt debut

Wed, 16 Oct 2013


The Goodwood Revival is described by its presenters as the greatest motorsport racing party of the year. We often focus heavily on the motorsports, but you can't forget about the party. For the first preview of the new 911 Turbo in the UK, Porsche recreated its booth from the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963 - the time and place of the original 911's public debut.
Porsche's cameras also caught up with Mark Porsche, the great grandson of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and son of the late Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche, who oversaw the design of the 911. Mark Porsche admires the 911's friendly design, which is set off by the round headlights, and says his mother, who was at the original Frankfurt booth in 1963, was milling around the booth at Goodwood - no doubt taking a trip down memory lane.

Jaguar F-Type coupe to cost more than convertible?

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Jaguar may price the much-rumored F-Type Coupe above the F-Type Convertible, if a report from Australia's Drive is to be believed. What makes Jag think that such a pricing strategy would work? Porsche. Take a look at the German manufacturer's consumer site, and you'll notice that the Boxster is less expensive than the Cayman, despite being essentially the same car.
It's a fair point, and a price premium does a good job of emphasizing the sporting chops of the coupe over the open-air experience that normally entitles convertibles to higher MSRPs. It's unclear just how closely Jaguar will follow Porsche's example, though.
Both the Cayman and Cayman S boast an extra ten horsepower over a Boxster or Boxster S, and while this bump in grunt is negligible in every situation but an argument over which is "best," it isn't something to be ignored in the F-Type, particularly as cranking more power out of its supercharged engines should be a rather simple matter.
