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's new twin-turbo V8 will power Audis

Fri, May 6 2016

Porsche unveiled a new twin-turbo V8 engine at the 37th International Vienna Motor Symposium yesterday. According to a report from Car and Driver, the engine will see use in future V8 applications across the VW Group and could find its way into various Audis, Bentleys, and even the Lamborghini Urus. We expect to see it first in the 2017 Porsche Panamera. The engine makes 549 horsepower and 567 pound-feet of torque, or 21 hp less than the 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 in the Panamera Turbo S. Welcome to the brave new world in which Porsche is a more-integrated part of the VW group. While the new engine puts out impressive numbers, it likely means that the Porsche-exclusive 4.8-liter is headed for the history books. Component sharing is nothing new - Porsche already uses other VW Group engines in its lineup - but it means the flat-four and flat-six engines in the 718 Boxster/Cayman and 911 will be the only unique powerplants remaining in the Stuttgart automaker's offerings. According to C/D, the new engine features cylinder deactivation and is optimized for future hybrid applications. It also consumes 30 percent less fuel than its predecessor, and will mate to both an 8-speed automatic and ZF's dual-clutch 8-speed. Along with the next Panamera, Porsche is also likely to use this engine in the Cayenne. A representative of Porsche North America was unable to provide any official information to Autoblog.

Leno steals Porsche 918 from The Quail for latest Garage episode

Sat, 31 Aug 2013

Just because he's a famous celebrity doesn't mean Jay Leno got to take it easy at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance earlier this month. Having already spent some time with the gorgeous Cadillac Elmiraj Concept and Ed Welburn for a recent episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the late night talk show host also got to put a few miles on a prototype version of the Porsche 918 Spyder.
Like a usual episode of JLG, Leno first goes over the details of the car with Frank Walliser, head of the 918 Spyder's development, before taking it out for spin. Check out the full episode, which is posted below, to hear what Walliser has to say about the car. More importantly, though, crank up your computer's volume and let the car's high-revving engine and amazing exhaust note do plenty of talking for itself.

New European charging network will offer speeds up to 350 kW

Tue, Nov 29 2016

It's about to get easier to fast-charge your electric vehicle across Europe thanks to four major automakers working together in a new joint venture. BMW, Daimler (Mercedes-Benz), Ford, and the VW Group (Audi and Porsche) have all signed a Memorandum of Understanding to install about 400 DC fast charging sites in Europe. As you may know, there are different types of fast chargers, but the ones that this group is talking about installing will be able to charge an EV in much less time than other stations. That's because these chargers will offer power levels of "up to 350 kW." Compare that to what's generally considered the current gold standard, the Tesla Superchargers, which have rates of up to 145 kW and a statement not that long ago from a Ford exec that suggested that 150 kW chargers would be the new normal. Of course, the Tesla chargers use the company's proprietary connector and the new network the JV is setting up will use the CCS standard. The first new stations will go up in 2017 and those 400 sites are just the beginning. A joint statement by the JV says that EV drivers will "have access to thousands of high-powered charging points" by 2020 along highways and main roads. "The charging experience is expected to evolve to be as convenient as refueling at conventional gas stations," the companies said. While not every electric vehicle will be able to take advantage of the 350 kW charging rate, the companies involved would be silly to build the infrastructure without vehicles that can handle that kind of energy flow. The JV says it would welcome participation from other automakers and will cooperate with interested regional partners.
