1992 Porsche 968 Cabriolet - White With Blue Interior And Top - 6 Spd Manual on 2040-cars
Port Saint Lucie, Florida, United States
Mechanically good 1992 Cabriolet. Original top and paint. Original convertible cover also in good condition. This car is still one of the best handling cars on the road today. It is a lot of fun to drive and gets lots of smiles and comments from others on the road. Used mostly as a weekend car now, but has seen periods of use as a very reliable everyday vehicle. One of approximately 700 cabriolets delivered in 1992 to the North American market. This car is a well kept and has been garaged most of it's last 10 years. Previous history mostly unknown, but some records came with the car when I purchased it in 2005. Major service records from 2005 and on. PCA member from 2005 thru 2013. Carfax indicates that I am likely the fifth owner of this vehicle. Lots of parts have been updated / replaced / repaired. Major service performed a couple of thousand miles ago included timing belt / balance shaft service, replacement of the steering rack, and front suspension bushings. This car runs and drives better than when I purchased it. Some normal wear and tear to the paint and interior, especially considering that this vehicle is nearly 25 years old. Slight cracking of the leather on the upper exposed portion of the doors and minor wear of the driver's seat are the most obvious areas of note (see pictures). Passenger seat is in good shape. The rear window plastic is cracked at one location and has a small crease at a second. The crack has been sealed using reinforced clear duct tape. I tried to capture these items in the included pictures. The top does not leak. There are no dash cracks. The remote trunk release, the car alarm, and the power door locks all function properly. Even the clock still works and keeps accurate time. The tool kit is also complete. The original mechanic's gloves that were in the storage cubby in the engine compartment are missing. Air conditioning is functioning but requires normal service and a recharge. Previous service and recharge was performed in 2010. System runs, but stopped cooling about a year ago. Car is currently used only for 'top down' motoring so recharging the a/c has not been a priority. Tires are in good shape, as is the rest of the car. I would not hesitate to take this car on a road trip of any sort. I am currently preparing to move due to a job relocation and will not have room for this vehicle at my new location. Last time I moved I had to get rid of my 1988 BMW M6. The Porsche made it through that move but I can't hang on to it this time around....needless to say downsizing and moving are not very high on my list of things I look forward to. Car is available for local inspection. Let me know if there are any additional pictures of features that you would like to see and I will try to get them taken and posted or sent to you. Shipping is to be arranged by the purchaser or the car can be picked up locally. Vehicle will be stored in my garage for a short period of time to allow time for delivery arrangements. |

Mark Webber treats Maria Sharapova to a Porsche 918 Spyder joyride
Tue, 29 Apr 2014We don't much like Mark Webber right now. Part of being a racing driver is dealing with promotional stuff. It's not hard to find a driver that can't stand all this nonsense, whether it be promoting a product, meeting investors or attending some obscure event. Even a driver of Webber's caliber - a former Formula One driver for Red Bull Racing and a member of Porsche's factory Le Mans team - has to serve his time at the promo events.
Somehow, though, we don't think the Aussie driver minds this particular promo detail. In the video below, Webber attends the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart. He then takes tennis superstar Maria Sharapova out for a spin behind the wheel of the Porsche 918 Spyder. The level of jealousy at the Autoblog office is palpable.
Take a look below for the video. And as we're super jealous of Mr. Webber, hop into Comments and caption the above photo based on what you think he's saying to Maria. Bonus points if you can work "vegemite" into the caption.
Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
2015 Porsche Macan Turbo
Mon, 06 Jan 2014The misinformation first started back in May of 2007 - more than six years ago - when word came that Porsche was developing a compact utility vehicle to fill out its product line. Rumors swirled that the German automaker's future "Roxster" would be based on the then-upcoming Audi Q5. By September of 2010, the name had changed to "Cajun," but the vehicle was still expected to be "based heavily on the Audi Q5," said reports in the months that followed. One year later, the first test mules were spotted, the mechanics hidden beneath barely disguised Audi sheetmetal, which did nothing to give the upcoming model its own identity. And even after Porsche announced "Macan" as the vehicle's production name in early 2012, articles stated that it would "arrive on the same chassis as the Audi Q5, though with suspension, brake and engine tweaks suitable to the Porsche range."
It's no wonder that most still consider the all-new Porsche Macan nothing more than a heavily massaged Q5.
To help lift some of the mystery surrounding its latest release, Porsche hosted us in Germany for an in-depth look at its new crossover (while Europeans call it a "sport utility," its car platform allows us to call it a proper CUV). The technology workshop offered us insight to the design and mechanical execution, and it concluded with a short test ride. The trip was both enlightening and educational - and it left us with a whole new perspective on the Macan.
