This is a NO RESERVE listing.

This is my 1988 Porsche 944 Special Edition coupe with only 100,588 miles.

This is one of the best-condition, low-mileage Porsche 944 models you will find for sale anywhere in the country.

The Special Edition is very rare, only 500 of these cars were brought to the US total, and only 250 in this unique Zermatt Silver color.

The timing belt, rollers and water pump were replaced on this car 7000 miles ago. This is CRITICAL maintenance on a 944- do not buy a 944 that you do not know the last timing belt replacement, or figure to spend $1200 on this service immediately upon purchase. If the timing belt breaks, the engine is destroyed.

This car has the following equipment and options:

2.5L all-aluminum engine
5-speed manual transmission
leather bucket seats
automatic heating/climate control with A/C (retrofitted to R134a and working properly)
huge tilting and removable sunroof with storage sack
power steering and brakes
power locks and windows
heated power mirrors
staggered Phone Dial alloy wheels
integrated front foglights
Special Edition package

I have the books and manuals for this car, as well as the original window sticker. The base price of the car was $29,100 plus options of Zermatt Silver Metallic ($645) and the rare Special Edition Package ($2437) with a total as-delivered price of $33,100.

This Porsche runs and drives very well. I just took the car on a 400-mile weekend trip and it performed beautifully. The air conditioning has been retrofitted to R134a and it blows cold. The engine is smooth and powerful, the transmission shifts perfectly, the clutch is tight, the suspension is very tight and stable, the brakes are good and the car drives wonderfully. This is a totally reliable and dependable car that I would drive across the country with no hesitation.

The interior of the car is in good shape. The leather seats are newer to the car look good. The plaid Special Edition upholstery is in good shape and looks nice. The carpets are clean and in great condition. This interior is in very nice condition overall.

The paint and exterior look very good. The paint appears to be all original, with no known accidents or damage. There is no body rust anywhere. This car looks very good all around.

Also included with the car is some very valuable upgrade hardware that would be useful if you wanted to track this car. I have a set of Koni adjustable coil-over front shocks plus a set of Koni rear shocks. I also have 944 Turbo front spindles and brake calipers. These parts alone are worth at least a few hundred dollars.

This is a 1988 car and as such it is not perfect. Please expect normal issues of wear and tear consistent with the age of the car. Here is a list of everything I know of that is wrong with the car: The leather seats show some wear. There are a few cracks in the dashboard. The sunroof raises electrically but comes back down as soon as you release the button. The sunroof removes from the car and reattaches perfectly. There are some minor dings on the hood. The outside passenger door handle does not work. The aluminum wheels are not perfect cosmetically.

I should mention that the dashboard clock/lap timer works perfectly which is very rare. These clocks are going for $500 nowadays due to their rarity.

This is a great-running, great-looking, dependable and reliable Porsche 944. I imagine you would have to look for a long time to find another one this nice for sale.

You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. Alternatively you can have the car shipped, please call Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481 for a shipping quote.

'Ring Queen Sabine Schmitz battles Ron Simons in Porsche vs Ferrari scrap

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

We hope you have seven minutes to kill. RSR Nürburgring recently took the time to pit Sabine Schmitz and her slightly modified Porsche 911 GT3 RS against Ron Simons and his Ferrari 458 Italia in a sparring match around the infamous Green Hell. The clip begins with the two drivers engaging in a smidgeon of smack talk before the two get down to the business of beating each other's doors off around one of the most challenging courses in the world. Simons calls his car superior to Schmitz's 911, while Schmitz says she's up against nothing more than a Fiat driven by an old Dutch man.
Don't hold any punches, you two.
We won't spoil the finale for you, but we will say the tango is worth watching. At the end, the loser calls for a rematch. We can't wait to see that throwdown. Check out the clip below for yourself.

Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting

Sat, 11 Oct 2014

"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.

2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.
