Red 1985 Porsche 944s on 2040-cars
Arlington, Tennessee, United States
I've owned my Porsche 944 for about 4 years now. It has been one of the nicest cars I've owned with the best gas mileage I've ever gotten out of any of my cars. In the time I've owned it I have replaced the A/C unit, shocks, brakes, tires, power steering pump, starter, clutch, and clutch hydraulic pump. The gauge that shows mileage stopped around the time I bought the car from an old buddy, and when I say old, he was really old. It stopped around 110,000 miles and for the first two years it was my daily driver and acquired about 16 miles 5 days a week. It is garage kept and I drive it about once a week now. I really love the car and heads turn when I drive it, though I was bumped in the rear end about a year ago. As you can tell by the pictures its not bad. The bumper has no damage at all. It was pushed in a little, which has been fixed, and when that happened the little side pieces as you can see bent and the black bumper fell off. Why am I getting rid of it? My kids are to big to ride in the back now and complain.. The car runs and drives great. There are your typical paint chips, fades, little tears in the seat, and the car does have a little crack in the windshield, but over all the body and interior is in great condition. I didn't have the little pieces at the back fixed and didn't get a new bumper guard for the rear bumper because I knew I was going to have to sell it and since I was offering such a low opening bid I didn't want to put any more money into the car.
Common myths about Porsche. They are hard to work on and the parts are very high. That's just not true. For the most part none of the parts I bought for this car were dramatically more expensive than any other car I've own and this Porsche has been the easiest car I've ever owned regarding preforming regular maintenance. i.e. plugs, oil, brakes. If you have any questions I'll be more than happy to answer them and I'll work with you in anyway to make sure you are happy with your purchase. I've sold about 4 cars I've owned on ebay and I've never had anyone not give me a positive feed back and tell me how happy they were with their car. I'm selling you a car that I drive and that I put my kids, 7 and 6, in. GOOD LUCK... |

Ferrari return to Le Mans looking more likely?
Wed, 18 Dec 2013Statements made by Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo may indicate that the Italian brand could return to a form of racing it's been absent from for 40 years - prototype racing. That's right, LMP1 could see a factory Ferrari team for the first time since 1973, if a report from ESPN F1 is to be believed.
"We have won with the 458 GTE, but I also quite like the idea of racing at Le Mans in the highest category: who knows, maybe one day we can return and win, say thanks and come home," Montezemolo said. "Maybe we should give it some consideration..."
These seemingly idle, off-hand comments might not hold much water, were rumors about Ferrari's return to prototype racing not swirling as recently as August. There's also the fact that the upcoming, 1.6-liter, turbocharged V6 being used for Formula One complies with the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's own LMP1 regulations, according to ESPN. Finally, Ferrari returning to Le Mans might also explain this video of a camouflaged Ferrari LaFerrari testing a new turbocharged engine, which we showed you a few weeks back. There's a fair chance that what we're actually seeing in that video are the early stages of a new Ferrari prototype testing.
Matthias Muller officially named VW Group CEO
Fri, Sep 25 2015While the vast number of rumors made it seem like a foregone conclusion, Porsche boss Matthias Muller has officially been named Volkswagen Group CEO to replace the recently resigned Martin Winterkorn. His contract runs through the end of February 2020, and until a replacement is found, Muller also gets to hang onto his old job as chairman of Porsche. At the same time, the VW Group Supervisory Board is announcing a massive structural reorganization across the entire company, with the new management model in place by the beginning of 2016. Contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. The board wants a greater emphasis on brands and regions going forward, and the scale of this shift can be seen in the US. On November 1, VW Group business in the US, Mexico, and Canada is being combined under the leadership of current Skoda chairman Winfried Vahland. However contrary to previous rumors, Michael Horn remains as President and CEO of VW Group of America. Other brands are also seeing some significant changes mechanically. Porsche, Bentley, and Bugatti now fall under the Group's "sportscar and mid-engine toolkit." This means that the brands will start sharing standardized technical parts. A Chief Technical Officer across all of the company's brands will also start working toward future innovations. The new brand-centric view means the end of a group-wide production department. "Going forward, the brands and regions will also have greater independence with regard to production. So it follows that they should also hold the responsibility for these activities," Berthold Huber, interim Chairman of the Supervisory Board, said in the announcement. In a statement with the press release about his promotion, Muller promised to turn the company around after such an international crisis. He said: "My most urgent task is to win back trust for the Volkswagen Group – by leaving no stone unturned and with maximum transparency, as well as drawing the right conclusions from the current situation. Under my leadership, Volkswagen will do everything it can to develop and implement the most stringent compliance and governance standards in our industry." Matthias Muller appointed CEO of the Volkswagen Group Muller remains Chairman of Porsche AG until a successor has been found Matthias Muller (62) has been appointed CEO of Volkswagen AG with immediate effect.
Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo
Wed, 11 Jun 2014Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.
