First of all, I would like to thank everyone for checking out my listing. As you may see, I have 100% positive feedback, and I am honest and upfront about everything!! What I have up for sale is my baby. If it were not for a wife and 4 kids running around it would never be for sale. 1986 Porsche 944. Sapphire Metallic with Black leather interior. This car is approaching 30 years old, so please do not expect a new car. It currently shows 144K on the odometer, however it does need a new speed sensor for the speedometer to function. The car cleans up very nicely, however I haven't had a chance to detail it. I'll leave that up to the winning bidder, and give them something to do on Saturday afternoon. Paint shines, however both the hood, and sunroof are a little thin. I also noticed when I blew the dust off of it today that the sunroof didn't want to lock shut. (Not sure why) The windshield also has a crack as well. I would consider the interior to be in above average condition. There is the typical 944 dash cracks that a cap would easily cover up. Also the drivers seat side bolster has some wear. Engine and transmission are rock solid. I have never driven a vehicle that has a clutch that bites like this one. Drives good as well. I noticed a little hesitation today when I dug it out, but certain that plug wires should be replaced eventually. This car could be driven away with no problems. This car has several options that you may be interested it. -Rear Wiper -Headlight Washers -Heated Seat It absolutely breaks my heat to part with this, but family comes first, and can't justify spending money for storage when the car needs to be driven and appreciated. I am including lots of photos. If you have questions, or for a specific photo, please feel free to contact me. Shipping is responsibility of the buyer. I will assist with any shipping companies, or I could work with buyer on delivery.

Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo returns in these spy shots

Thu, Feb 4 2016

Way back in 2012, Porsche got enthusiasts all hot and bothered with the Panamera Sport Turismo at the Paris Motor Show. The concept imagined a hybrid wagon with a shapely rear end. Porsche said at the time production was "possible," but these spy shots indicate the vehicle is actually under development now. Take a close look through the gallery and you'll see that this test car sports some light camouflage at the back, but it does nothing to hide the new rump. Compared to the sedan, the longer roof looks to provide extra headroom for rear passengers, along with a few extra cubes of cargo space. The rear glass sits more upright, and a spoiler visually lengthens the five-door. The wagon's front end is identical to other recent spy shots of the future Panamera. We don't have any technical details about the wagon, but it would likely share powertrains with the sedan. The cabin layout would probably also be identical, including touch-capacitive controls to replace traditional buttons. A Panamera wagon makes sense in the Porsche range. The long-roof version would offer all of the sedan's performance but have a little more room. If a customer with a family doesn't want a Cayenne, this would be the obvious alternative, and the massive 911 range shows Porsche isn't afraid to build a bevy of model variants. If you think a Panamera station wagon seems odd, just remember people thought a Porsche SUV was weird, too. And, of course, that move turned into a huge success for the company. Related Video:

Porsche offers detuned Boxster and Cayman 211 in Europe

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Looking at a new Porsche Boxster? First of all, we commend you on your choice, because in its latest iteration, the Boxster has sped out from under the shadow of the 911 and into its own. But now to choose: do you get the base model with 265 horsepower, the Boxster S with 315 hp, or the top-of-the-line Boxster GTS with 330 hp? It's a daunting question, considering the $10k+ price gap between each model that you could put into the gas-and-rubber jar. Same goes for the Cayman, albeit with ten more horses across the board. But as if that's not confusing enough, there appears to be another player on the field. (That is, at least, in certain European markets.)
Appearing on the company's Belgian and Norwegian sites are the Boxster 211 and Cayman 211. As you might have guessed, they pack a less substantial 211 horsepower, undercutting what we know as the base models. Instead of using a smaller engine, though, the Boxster and Cayman 211 get the same 2.7-liter boxer six, just with less power.
As a result, they're a bit slower off the line: the Boxster 211 takes between 6.1 and 6.4 seconds to get to 62, depending on exact specifications, compared to the 5.5- to 5.8-second range for the 265-hp Boxster, while the Cayman 211 is quoted at 6.2 seconds versus the 275-hp Cayman's 5.4 to 5.7 seconds. Fuel consumption and emissions, on the other hand (and as you'd expect), are better in the 211. But while Porsche Norway charges around $10k less for the 211 models, Porsche Belgium charges the same for the 211 models as it does for the next most powerful versions (from which they appear to be visually indistinguishable).

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013


Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.
