Gansevoort, New York, United States

Up for auction is this beautiful 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo with 5-Speed 2.5L 16 valve engine with 84,920 original miles and high gloss Pearl While paint with tan and black interior.

I purchased the vehicle from the original owner in October 2011, whom cared for it for the previous 24 years and 79,900 miles.   The previous owner had performed extensive maintenance on the vehicle and it has had the following work completed: July 2008 (68,000 miles) the entire engine was removed and rebuilt with new crankshaft, timing belt, connecting rods and rod bearing set, piston ring set, fuel injectors and all injector seals/o-rings, clutch assembly (clutch and slave cylinder), frequency valve, turbo cutoff valve, water pump and hoses, and clamps, all belts, control arm bushing, engine mount, tension roller, tension gear, engine gasket set, exhaust manifold gasket, exhaust seal ring, hatch switch, shift level, heater control valve and receiver/dryer distributor cap, ignition rotor and ignition dust cover.  (See receipts for $7,113.82 for all details).

The car was repainted in 2010 in a high gloss Pearl White and had a graphic “turbo” script design applied to the right front fender (see photos) and a new Alpine stereo receiver/CD player with iPod/USB connector installed.

The previous owner reported to following two incidents/issues:

1) 10/07/2010 - Rear hatch windshield was broken and insurance company replaced the glass with no other damage to car.

2) 04/24/2011 - Construction on main road was being done and the city didn't properly cove the hole and the vehicle left front wheel hit the hole resulting in a broken control arm.  Both control arms have been replaced and alignment performed. (See receipts for $891.17 and $1,082.52 respectively).

As the second owner of the vehicle, the vehicle has been garage kept and I have had the throttle body replaced, new belts, radiator hoses, front sway bar bushings, new rear deck carpeting, and new Dunlop Direzza tires (205/55R16 front and 225/50R16 rear) installed with new color Porsche emblem center wheel caps.  The maintenance and new tire installation were performed at 84,871 miles, and the tires have less than 50 miles on them, not a typo, they are new with under 50 miles on them. The car runs and drives great and is a real attention getter. The driver’s seat shows signs of wear and has some small cuts (see pictures) and there is a small paint chip on the left rear quarter panel behind the left rear tire (see pictures).  The vehicle has a Viper anti-theft alarm system and has key fob activated lock, unlock and disarm features and if attempts are made to shake and/or enter vehicle when activated, the starter is deactivated and can be reset with a button on the key fob.  The car also has the SEKURIT vehicle glass etching which includes the VIN number being etched on the glass (see pictures) and the vehicle also comes with a grey microfiber cloth car cover and four OC142 Mahle oil filters. The car is offered as is with no warranty.

A $1000 deposit on PayPal is required within 48 hours of successful/winning bid and the balance via cash, certified funds/money order within seven days or vehicle pickup, whichever first occurs. Car and title transfer will not occur unless full payment is received.

Vehicle is offered for local pickup and the buyer is responsible for any shipping (if required).  Seller reserves the right to cancel the auction at any time due to local sale of the vehicle as it is also being advertised in the Upstate New York area concurrently with this eBay auction.

Very reasonable reserve price.  Please send any questions via eBay message to seller option and I will attempt to answer as quickly as possible.

Good luck and happy bidding!

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.

How Porsche got Patrick Dempsey into the driver's seat for Le Mans

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice. Ask Patrick Dempsey and he'll likely tell you the same secret for landing a role on a hit TV show or, for that matter, driving a Porsche in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
That's because, like McQueen and Newman, Dempsey has earned his place in that rarified field of actors who also race. He's competed in Baja and Grand-Am, co-owns an IndyCar team, and this year returned to Le Mans where he and his teammates Joe Foster and Patrick Long finished fourth in the GTE-Am class behind the wheel of their Porsche 911 RSR.
It's a grueling race, and the fluid transition between drivers behind the wheel is a key element to success. Check out the satirical video below to see how Dempsey and company got ready.

In the month of November, Porsche delivered 17,700 vehicles – an increase of one quarter over the same month last year.
