For sale, by private owner: 1994 Porsche 968 Cabriolet with 6-Speed manual transmission, both rear seat configurations (2+2 / storage), and in  very good condition.

I'm the personal owner, and welcome calls and texts to (626) 219-0269.  We live in Marietta, GA, a suburb just north of Atlanta.

The 968 currently has 73,308 miles on it (will increase slightly due to weekend use and test drives) and is in very good running and driving  condition.  The title is clean, clear, and in my name.  I purchased it from the original owner and have the original window sticker as well as  many records since new (pictured).  I have two master keys as well as the original Porsche wheel lock keys, all owner's manuals, and all  accessories including all trunk tools, both top tools, tonneau cover (pictured), car cover, original donut spare, and original Porsche inflator  kit.  I do not have the original radio, but the aftermarket CD player sounds good.  The tires are in good shape with more than 50% tread.  There  are some areas of wear, outlined in the condition notes, below.  There are no warning lights or alerts and it has a passing emissions certificate  that I'll include to the new owner.  I do not have to top off fluids and it does not leak fluid on the ground.  The AC blows cold, the heat blows  hot, and the HVAC system vent positions and blower are responsive.  Yes, I would trust it in a drive across the country -- it is ready to go.

Please note in the pictures that I show only the storage bin configuration for rear seats.  The rear seat configuration is not shown, and is  included in parts (seats + seat belts).

Features
  1. 6-Speed Manual Transmission
  2. Powered front seats
  3. Power windows, mirrors, and locks
  4. Rear Storage bin configuration (instead of seats, pictured) AND rear 2+2 seat configuration
Condition Notes
  1. The top of the driver's side door panel needs refinishing (pictured)
  2. There is one dent, along the top crease of the front right fender above the front right wheelwell (pictured) -- the quote for dentless repair  is $500, quote is included with the car
  3. There is road rash along the bottom of the front air dam (pictured)
  4. The front floormats have been covered with plastic covers since new, and are in very good condition.
  5. The convertible top is currently in manual mode, which allows it to be put up and down without turning the car all the way off per Porsche  owner's manual procedure. (However, the power convertible top motors DO work.)
  6. The convertible top is newer than the car (originally grey, now black) and does not leak.  The rear window cleans up nicely and is mostly  clear.
  7. The driver's seat bolster shows some expected wear from use, as does the shift knob.  Both are pictured.
  8. The center console / armrest plastic "hinge" is broken.
  9. The rearward powered vertical adjustment of the driver's seat does not work; a new Porsche OEM switch is included to be installed at your  option.
Terms
  1. Communication is key. I'm flexible regarding these terms if contacted before the auction ends, and welcome calls or texts to my Google Voice  number, (626) 219-0269
  2. I am NOT a dealer.  There are NO FEES.  The price you bid is the price you pay.  I have the title in my name and in my hands, ready to hand  to you when you pay.
  3. The PayPal deposit is $200 and must be paid within 24 hours of the end of the auction.  The deposit amount is credited towards the total  purchase price.
  4. If you fail to send a $200 deposit via PayPal within 24 hours I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it.
  5. I won't accept PayPal payment other than the $200 deposit.
  6. The balance of the purchase price (minus the $200 deposit) is due within 14 days UNLESS you we work out an alternative timeline BEFORE THE  AUCTION ENDS.  I'm flexible; the more communication the better.  I give two weeks because if you're traveling to come pick up the vehicle that  gives you a chance to get a cheap flight and schedule your trip time.
  7. If you pay a deposit but do not pay the balance within 14 days I'll relist the vehicle and you'll lose your chance to win it.  I'm flexible;  the more communication the better.
  8. Please, no dealers or curbstoners.  I will not fill out a title with a purchase price of less than you paid.  I will be putting the buyer's  name and purchase date on the title.
  9. It is OK if you're using a bank loan to purchase the vehicle; however, have funding and preapproval in place BEFORE bidding or making an  offer.  Not being able to get a loan AFTER the auction ends is not a good excuse.
  10. If you're showing up in person we will be doing the sale transaction at my bank so that cash, check, or loan funds can be verified.  You will  need to be around during bank business hours so please plan your trip accordingly.
  11. I'm happy to help with meeting the shipper(s) if you plan to have it shipped.  However, you are responsible for setting up and paying for  shipping.  The balance must be paid in full before I release the vehicle to a shipper.
  12. I'm willing to deliver the car to you for $0.50 / mile for distances over 50 miles.  The balance must be paid in full before I begin my trip.
  13. I will not negotiate after the auction.
  14. I'm not interested in trades.  This is a purchase-only auction.
  15. I do not provide financing.
  16. I'll provide a standardized, non-notarized bill of sale from the state of Georgia.  If your state requires additional documentation, such as  a notarized bill of sale, please let me know and I'll provide it to you at no cost to you.
  17. The vehicle will come with a recent (within the last two weeks) passing emissions certificate.  If you're local and within the Georgia clean  air zones you can use this for registration.
  18. I welcome local inspections before the auction ends.  I live within convenient driving distance of dealers and independent mechanics.  I can  recommend one or you can find your own.  When searching use the cross streets of Lower Roswell Rd and Johnson Ferry Rd in Marietta, GA 30068.   You are responsible for any inspection costs to the local mechanic; however, there are no fees from me to drop the car off to have it checked  out.
  19. Do not ASSUME any details about the vehicle.  If something is not listed or you have a question, don't be shy.  I welcome calls and texts!
  20. All vehicles are subject to local sale.  Until a deposit is received from the winning bidder it is subject to local sale, thus voiding the  auction.  If a vehicle sells locally and eBay allows me to end the auction early, I'll do it.  Note that within the final 24 hours eBay does not  allow an auction to end early; however, until a deposit is received it is still subject to local sale and the auction is void if it sells locally  before a deposit is received.  Once a deposit is received it will no longer be for sale locally.
  21. If picking up the vehicle in person I'm happy to pick you up from the rental vehicle drop-off location, Atlanta airport, AmTrak station, or  bus station.  There is no fee from me to do this.  I'll also make sure the vehicle has a full tank of gas, tires are properly inflated, and it's  ready for a driving trip back.  In other words, I'll treat you like a person and how I'd expect to be treated if I were buying a vehicle on eBay.
  22. I'm not a dealer.  I can't provide a temporary license tag.  My state of GA tag will stay with me in GA and is not included with the vehicle.   Please do your research to stay legal when driving back home, especially if through or across state lines as each state may have different  rules.  I will provide you with the title and a bill of sale.

Porsche bringing Macan S Diesel to US instead of 4-cylinder [w/poll]

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

When Porsche unveiled the new Macan at the LA Auto Show, it announced two powerplants for the US market, both of them twin-turbo V6s: the Macan S equipped with 340 horsepower from its 3.0-liter engine, and the Macan Turbo with 400 horses from 3.6 liters. But those aren't the only engines Porsche will offer in its new compact crossover. Porsche is also offering the Macan S Diesel overseas with 258 hp, and reports have since indicated that a pair of four-cylinder models on their way: a 2.0-liter turbo four with 280 hp and four-pot turbodiesel of the same capacity with an as-yet undisclosed output.
Now Car and Driver is reporting that while those four-cylinder engines won't be making the transatlantic voyage to our shores, Porsche will offer the aforementioned Macan S Diesel in North America beginning in early 2015, nearly a year after the gas V6 versions arrive.
The 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 is based on the same engine found in the Cayenne Diesel and the Audi Q5 TDI on which the Macan is based. Of course, its 248 hp is substantially less than the 340 ponies in the Macan S, but its 413 pound-feet of torque outshines not only the 339 lb-ft in the Macan S but also the 406 lb-ft in the Macan Turbo. Acceleration times, however, suggest the Macan S Diesel is still slower, with a 6.3-second run to 62 mph than neither the Macan S (5.4 sec) or Macan Turbo (4.8). The good news is that the Macan S Diesel is tipped to undercut the price of both, dropping the oil-burning crossover's MSRP below that of the $49,900 starting price for the Macan S and the $49,600 for the base Cayenne. If that C/D prediction comes to pass, that will make it the Macan S Diesel most affordable Porsche sold.

Former Top Gear crew starts filming for Amazon show

Wed, Oct 7 2015

We might have only a hint at the name and no exact date for a premiere, but fans can celebrate that Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May are filming once again. Plus, it looks like every cent of Amazon's reportedly lavish budget is being put on the screen. A photo tweeted by Clarkson shows the three hosts standing proudly in front of a Porsche 918 Spyder, Ferrari LaFerrari, and McLaren P1 at a racetrack. Clarkson jokes that the show has just a "skeleton crew" but behind him stand several dozen people, a sophisticated-looking camera rig, and two big trucks. This definitely looks worth the anticipation of the premiere on Amazon Prime next fall. Hammond tweeted the same picture and wrote: "The band is back together and it feels brilliant."

Intriguingly, it appears that fellow British auto journalist Chris Harris is currently filming at the same track. He tweeted a photo to Clarkson of the McLaren doing a very smoky slide, while being followed by the other two hypercars. The Porsches in both photos wear the same red-and-white number 3 livery and have the same license plate number. In a later message, Harris was also clear that he wasn't filming there in connection with the trio's Amazon show. This content is hosted by a third party.

Porsche planning Cayman GT4 racer

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

To say that Porsche is big in racing is like saying that Warren Buffett dabbles in mergers and acquisitions. But while it fields the 919 Hybrid at Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the bulk of its racing activities are undertaken by private teams that buy customer racecars from the factory. Those in turn are largely based on the 911, but the latest intel from the motor racing world indicates that Zuffenhausen is planning a more accessible customer race car.
The new, more affordable competition car is to be based on the Cayman and built to GT4 specifications, slotting in below the 911-based GT3 Cup, GT3 R and RSR. Autosport reports that Porsche has already developed a prototype and will shortly commence testing. Details are scarce at the moment, but the Cayman GT4 would seem to compete against the likes of the Aston Martin Vantage N24, Nissan 370Z Nismo GT4 and Maserati GranTurismo MC. It will also likely help Porsche foster enthusiasm for a potential road version that's already been spotted undergoing testing. Previous GT4 racing conversions of the Cayman, like the one pictured above, were carried out by third-party racing constructors not recognized by the factory.
Porsche may not be the only one showing interest in the category, however. BMW is said to similarly be considering a GT4-spec version of its M235i Racing model to compete in the same class, taking the place of the defunct M3 GT4 as the Bavarian marque's entry-level customer racing car.
