 Up for grabs is this NO RESERVE 1987 Porsche 944, ultra rare S model!  This Porsche features a five speed manual transmission, alloy wheels, sunroof, spoiler, and black leather interior.  Vehicle just got a new alternator installed on 7/30, I have also had a new battery installed last week as well as a full tune-up.  New fuel pump also installed. 

This 944 is NOT running currently.  I have spent over $5,000 on this project and am not spending another dime, period!  Vehicle starts, but will need to be trailered off my property.  Starter engages, but vehicle will only stay "on" if the key is kept in the starting position. I have driven this vehicle twice, it was very fast and fun to drive.  I then parked it, it would not start, and I do not have any additional funds to fix. 

I would be happy to give you the name and number of the mechanic who performed the tune-up and installed the fuel pump, after a conversation with me first. 

I do NOT know when the timing belt and/or chain and/tensioner was changed. 

Excellent value...again, no reserve auction, this car will sell.  True Mileage Unknown.  Tremendous potential for a racecar, project, etc.  Motor is strong. 

This 944 has a clean title, and even a clean CarFax!  Title will be released only after the outstanding balance has been collected.  We charge a modest $199 doc fee, $25 to send the title via FedEx, and a .03% City of Nashville business tax, I only collect state sales tax for Tennessee residents.   We accept cash, personal checks, cashier's check, wire transfers ($20 additional fee), and credit/debit cards (3% swipe fee additional). 

We ship nationally and internationally, I can have this 944 delivered to your door, please contact me directly with zip code for an estimate on shipping.   

Please only bid if you intend to buy!  Please ask any and all questions BEFORE the end of the auction...my cell phone is 615-300-6004.  I will not be positing any more pictures to this eBay ad, please contact me directly for additional pictures, they will be sent to you via email only.

Meet Buster, this 1968 Porsche racecar transporter from Mercedes

Thu, Dec 11 2014

If you're thinking about Porsche and Mercedes-Benz when it comes to motorsports, your first thought is probably on the two German brands battling on the track. However, for decades, whenever Porsche's factory team went to compete, a custom Mercedes was right along with them hauling the racecars. These days the truck lives in the Brumos Collection in Jacksonville, FL, and goes by the nickname Buster. However, its story goes back to 1968 when Porsche ordered two commercial vehicles from Mercedes and then handed them over to a Stuttgart-based outfitter for customization. The results were these racing transporters that hauled models like the 917 and 956 until the '80s. The other survived, too, with a place in Porsche's collection. Well-known racers in their own right, Brumos scooped up the transporter in 2003 and have kept driving it to vintage racing events. The interior now boasts the signatures of many of the great drivers from the era of this historic truck. Watch the video for the whole story on the Mercedes with a whole lot of Porsche inside.

Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer First Drive [w/video]

Fri, Jun 26 2015

"There's still a couple hundred rpm left," coaxes the voice from the passenger seat. Though I'm wailing down a mercilessly knotted up Southern California canyon road in someone else's half-million dollar coupe, my manic pace apparently isn't sufficient for the Singer Vehicle Design rep in the right seat. On one hand, my Irish co-pilot with more than a passing resemblance to Bruce Willis is playfully ribbing me because I've been driving hard, but haven't yet hit the 4.0-liter engine's 7,200-rpm rev limiter. On the other hand, if you've never heard of an Irish bloke who doesn't drink because he's got control issues – well, now you have, because the dude's stocky paws are white knuckling the car's rain gutter like his life depends on it. Within my microcosm of itinerant auto writing some days are odder than others; this particular Monday is beginning to look like one of the weirder ones. Rolling, In My Four-Point-Oh The car in question, according to a release I've signed prior to the drive, is a "Porsche 911," a "Porsche," or a "911," but certainly not a "Singer Porsche," a "Singer 911," or any number of variants thereafter. Sigh. I suppose "Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer Vehicle Design" will suffice? Oh, legal department. Nomenclature aside, what started life as a 1990 Porsche 911 has been dismantled and rebodied with a carbon fiber skin that makes it more closely resemble a small-bumpered, wide-hipped 1960s-era 911 than it does its melted bumper donor car. According to company founder (and former Catherine Wheel vocalist) Rob Dickinson, the decision to source a 964-series 911 was based on its delicate foothold between the model's combination of heritage and drivability. "I think the 964 is in the sweet spot of having one foot in old school 911 thinking with the [semi-trailing] rear suspension, which honors every earlier 911, while having a front end which is very much of the modern era and allows the car not to feel like an antique," he tells Autoblog. The specimen I'm driving is the latest evolution of Singer's vision of the reinterpreted 911, distinguished by a 4.0-liter powerplant that's been heavily modified by Ed Pink Racing (and, in Singer tradition, the serial number matches the donor car's chassis). The Van Nuys, California-based firm knows a thing or two about high-strung Porsche mills: the tuner has a long history of rebuilding such mechanical exotica such as 917, 935, and 962 race engines.

Porsche confirms four-cylinder Boxster, Cayman replacement for US

Wed, May 20 2015

Those who've been anxiously awaiting the return of the four-cylinder Porsche will be glad to know that the wait is almost over. What's more, the quad-pot Porsches won't be kept away from US showrooms but will form an integral part of the company's North American strategy. Confirmation comes courtesy of Automotive News, which spoke to the company's chief executive Matthias Muller about its return to four-cylinder power. "First of all, we will have it in the Boxster and Cayman successor," Muller told AN. "And then we will see how it works and how successful it is and how the customers will react on that, and then we will take the next decisions." The model to which Muller refers is expected to be the 718 – a new line taking the place of the Boxster and Cayman, ostensibly allowing Zuffenhausen to start from scratch rather than "downsizing" the engine on existing models. The new range is anticipated to launch sometime in the middle of next year. Porsche is currently offering a 2.0-liter inline-four with 234 horsepower in the Macan (which we get with V6s) for certain markets overseas, but the 718 is expected to get a new flat-four 2.0- and 2.5-liter displacements with output edging up to 395 horsepower. The last time Porsche offered a four-pot in the US was with the front-engined 968 that wrapped up production two decades ago, but it hasn't offered a boxer four since 1976.
