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 Cayman GT4 looks sexy, rapid in the nude
Mon, Jan 5 2015Porsche doesn't officially have a name for its more hardcore version of the Cayman, yet. The speculation is that the coupe is called the GT4 as a little brother to the 911 GT3. However, the German sports car maker apparently is not interested in keeping the model's looks much of a secret because these latest shots show it without a hint of camouflage to speak of. The GT4 reportedly takes the GT3's ethos of more power, less weight and stickier-than-glue handling and brings it all to the Cayman. As these photos show, there's a much lower air dam up front with a cooling vent at the tip of the hood. Larger wheels are another obvious addition and are likely shod with some very sticky rubber. At the back, there's a double spoiler combining a wing and a ducktail. The power and gearbox for the GT4 remains a mystery, though. The rumor is that it uses a tuned version of the 3.4-liter flat-six in the Cayman S and GTS to make between 370 and 400 horsepower. A similar overhaul of the Boxster might be on the way, as well. A version of the convertible wearing some of the Cayman GT4's goodies was recently spotted testing. That one even had a manual transmission to make the prospects behind the wheel even more exciting.
Autocar pits Porsche 911 Turbo S against Formula 4 racer
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There is a long-running argument among performance car fans: power vs. weight. In one corner you get cars generally with small engines making modest numbers but able to corner like they are telepathic, and in the other there are big thumping mills that are rocketships in a straight line but lumber in the turns. Autocar takes an interesting look this continuum in a recent video pitting a 552-hp Porsche 911 Turbo S against a 185-hp Formula 4 racecar. It hopes to find whether the Porsche's huge power advantage is enough to defeat the better grip and aero offered by the nimble racer.
There's no doubt that the Porsche is an utterly fantastic road car. The 911 Turbo looks mean with all of those intakes to suck in cool air, and it backs up the posture with huge amounts of grip available thanks to its all-wheel drive-system. However, at 3,538 pounds, it's a bit of a porker compared to the 1,135-pound Formula 4 car. The open-wheel car boasts just a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder from Ford and a six-speed sequential-manual gearbox, but it has loads of downforce to make up for it.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the formula car wins in the corners. After all, that's what it's made for. So do you think the massive horsepower superiority of the Porsche is enough to even the playing field? Scroll down to watch the video and find out, and even if you're not curious of the winner the 911 does some mean powerslides.
Porsche reveals first Macan driving and manufacturing footage
Fri, 13 Dec 2013One of the more anticipated offerings of the upcoming year, Porsche's sporty baby Cayenne, the 2015 Macan, has already earned nods of approval from a number of Autoblog staffers. We named it one of the top five debuts at last month's LA Auto Show, citing its 400-horsepower turbocharged engine and other sporty bits as good reasons to get excited about Stuttgart's latest.
And while our first test may be many months away, we're keeping our ears to the ground for any information on Porsche's compact crossover. We're especially keen on stuff like this - our first look at the new model in motion and undergoing assembly at its Leipzig plant. Both are shorter videos, and while there's little of the glorious engine noise we've already been teased with, the videos do offer a great look at the handsome Macan on the road, as well as glimpse at Porsche's state-of-the-art manufacturing operations.
Scope out the videos below and let us know what you think.
