****mileage is not accurate**** however is close, is estimated to be under 130k. Instrument cluster is not working. Car has not been driven much since late 90s
NADA classic car values $7000 low to $12000 high Runs great, doesnt smoke, sounds amazing. Car was well taken care of, interior in descent shape for original 1981. front seats have dry cracking and passenger seat has some holes Dash leather has shrunk and pulled away a bit, as seen in picture Does run a little rough when cold, but once warm, has great throttle response and tons of torque. Transmission is slow to shift into reverse when cold, but again once warm, feels and shifts fine Shifts through the gears great on the road and kickdown functions fine Engine leaks oil and tranny leaks oil. Tranny may be leaking from the front seal. Not functioning: speakers sound terrible, driver power seat would tilt back, so manually adjusted forward and unplugged the switch. seat bottom moves forward and back fine and up and down (did unplug this switch as well though). Instrument cluster not functioning (common issue). AC does not blow cold. Otherwise car is very functional. Recently drove down freeway and feels great. All exterior lights are working, headlights go up and down fine, sunroof and windows work although move slow, heater works. Car is in pretty good shape for year. This car has obviously sat for years, guessing not much driving since late 90s, I purchased the car this summer and wanted to get it tip top but I need the money now. It is perfectly driveable, or a good restoration project as it is very straight, no sign of any accidents, only minor dents near the rear fender. Very cool car, got many compliments on it at the gas station and many lookers on the road. Feel free to message me if you have questions |

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.
Roger Rodas' widow suing Porsche over Carrera GT crash
Tue, 13 May 2014
Investigations undertaken by local law enforcement may have vindicated Porsche from any wrongdoing in the crash that killed actor Paul Walker and racing driver Roger Rodas last year, but the latter's widow is apparently not convinced. According to emerging reports, Kristine Rodas has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from Porsche Cars North America.
In her suit filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court, Rodas' attorney Mark Geragos reportedly disputes the findings of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, which asserted that the vehicle was traveling at an unsafe speed of 90 miles per hour on city streets, identifying the speed as the cause of the accident. Instead the lawsuit claims that the vehicle was only going 55 mph and that the cause of the crash was improper equipment - namely a faulty right rear suspension and the lack of a crash cage and proper fuel tank.
