1987 Porsche 944 on 2040-cars
Norfolk, Virginia, United States
Gold 1987 Porsche 944. It has its original paint. Overall, the paint looks nice. The body itself is great shape. It is nice and straight with no dents. The car is light and nimble and handles like a dream. The engine pulls hard and the 5 speed manual transmission shifts well. The interior is in great shape and looks good. I installed a new Panasonic AVH-X3500 BHS touchscreen head unit including an iPhone cable, an HDMI cable and telephone mic. I have been using this car as a daily driver. It handles like a dream and gets excellent fuel mileage. A very fun car to drive. A true driver's car that is a blast to take through twisty roads. The car comes with the original steering wheel and an older MOMO steering wheel. Also comes with a Porsche 944 specific car cover. It also comes with a brand new spoiler for the back if you want to swap out the original one. I am unsure of the true mileage on this vehicle. The odometer was broken when I bought it from the previous owner. I immediately fixed the odometer so it is properly working. The items on this car that I have not fixed are as follows: 1. The power steering rack has a small leak. I never bothered to spend the money on it since I just regularly check the fluid level and add more when necessary. 2. The gears for the targa top work to vent it open but do not work to fully remove the targa top. 3. The rear hatch window struts need to be replaced. 4. The rear hatch window has pulled slightly out of the gasket running alone the top of the window which is a common problem for 944's due to the stress that the hatch window struts place on the glass. I covered the top of the hatch window with clear helicopter tape to properly seal it. 5. The paint is original. It is in good shape given the age but there are several cracked paint spots on the car. I have had all the work done on the car by LMN Motorsports in Virginia Beach. I have all of the work records since I bought the car. This car has had a ton of work put into it.

Production Porsche 918 Spyder images leak out of Chinese patent office
Wed, 26 Dec 2012A few images of what looks to be the production Porsche 918 Spyder are here to say hello, courtesy of a patent office in China. If these provide an accurate look at what the hybrid supercar will look like, there are a few differences between it and the latest examples of the pre-production prototypes our spy shooters have seen.
The jerry-rigged turn signals inside the headlight enclosures and on the front fenders on the prototype are replaced with more polished units inside the headlamps located underneath the main beams. Behind that, the door handles have been swapped from horizontal latches on the door to vertical openings located just behind the door shutline.
We've also seen a Martini-liveried version of the 918 Spyder that has extra carbon elements that don't appear on this car. It was at the Nürburgring with carbon lips on the front fenders and another carbon element that hung from the rear fenders and ran down to the rear diffuser. When we saw the car on our Deep Dive piece, the front lips were gone but that rear piece remained, and we can't tell from the brochure and options sheet that we've seen so far what it comes with. The wheels from the concept and the green brake calipers, minus the polycarbonate covers, should be the standard fitment while the ten-spoke magnesium wheels will be a 29,750-euro (about $39,000 US) option.
Petrolicious details why the Porsche 911 is something special
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The Porsche 911 is a special car, if for no other reasons than it's been continuously produced since 1964, with nearly every generation regarded as being at or near the top of its class. But why the rear-engined icon has done so well among enthusiasts and regular drivers alike can't always be explained easily. To truly understand the 911, you have to experience the whole package, and that means driving one.
While just about every publication has raved about the Porsche, commercial director, race driver, photographer and 911 owner Jeff Zwart explains to Petrolicious why he was drawn to the legend as a young child, and why he still loves them today.
Zwart's professional and personal life are inextricably linked to the 911, and hearing him talk about the car and its history makes for fascinating viewing. Watch the video below to hear Zwart's story and see him drive a couple examples from his collection: an early 911 and the 964-generation Carrera 4 he won Pikes Peak with for the first time - a car that happens to be equipped with the 959 Paris-Dakar's fascinating torque-split transmission. Enjoy!
Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just as many racing versions of the coupe as there were street-legal versions.
As the show's 2013 honoree, one of the prime racing examples was a 1970 Porsche 911 S raced by Sam Posey. There were so many cars in attendance, we didn't know where to look, but a 1985 911 Speedster concept and a Porsche-owned, rally-ready 911 Type 953 were definitely among the more impressive standouts. As an added bonus, Jacksonville-based Brumos Porsche had many of its classic racecars on display including a beautiful 959.
