You are viewing my 1985 Porsche 928S. This car is truly for the vintage sport car enthusiast. It has never been performance modified, raced or been required to go through a major restoration to bring it back to life from a neglected ownership.

 

The low miles shown on the working odometer are actual. It has never been involved in any sort of accident. There is no rust through on any part of the sheet metal structure, all the body panels are exceptionally straight and are in perfect alignment.

 

 

The new owner of the car will not be disappointed. This is an excellent example of the classic 32 valve S3 series coupe. Read on for a more detailed description of the overall condition of the car.

 

 

The interior is in excellent condition. There are no rips, open seams or tears on the leather sport comfort seats front and rear. The brown wool carpet is in very good condition with the exception of the piece on the rear deck that has sun faded and worn. The dash/instrument panel is excellent, but (not uncommon) there are a few (3) hairline stress cracks on the top surface of the dash panel. All gauges are in working condition, upgraded stereo, lights, fans, windows and heat controls work as well. The AC system is fully charged and blows ice cold air.

 

The engine starts right up with no smoke or oil consumption. It idles smoothly with no unusual noises. Oil pressure holds steady and high when fully warmed up. The car runs and drives very well. The 4 speed auto automatic transmission shifts smoothly and quietly. Suspension and steering are very solid with no rattles or wheel shimmy.

 

When I purchased the car, it had been off the road since 2001. As part of the mechanical refresh to make it roadworthy ago the following services were performed:

 

Upper Engine – new cam cover gaskets, cam end seals, all new vacuum and oil separation hoses, new high pressure fuel lines, TPS, Laso water pump, Timing Belt, rebuilt TB tensioner, new (old stock) OEM spark plug wire set, new Bosch fuel pump, fuel injectors and much more. Service part receipts and a full photo documentation of work progression are available upon request.

 

Common maintenance items - new battery, belts, brakes and  Dunlop 225/50-16 speed rated tires at all 4 corners.

 

Cosmetic Upgrades – new Porsche tinted front glass with built-in antenna, professional quality base coat\clear coat paint re-spray in the original Grand Prix white color, earlier model quarter glass rubber with rear spoiler delete kit and H4 Euro headlights.

 

 

 

I have tried to include as many pictures to depict the true condition of the car. Please e-mail if you have specific questions. Please keep in mind that the car is 29 years old and although excellent condition for its age, due to normal wear and tear, have realistic expectations for a vehicle that been in service all these years.

 

This car is being offered in a no reserve auction with a very modest starting price.  Please email and I will promptly assist you with any questions you may have. Please read the good and bad in the description above.  I will make myself available for anyone requesting a physical inspection

 

 

 

Terms

 

The winning bidder must confirm bid with a $300 non-refundable deposit within 3 days of close of auction. The balance is due within 10 days. This car is sold as-is where-is. Local buyers are always encouraged to inspect in person before bidding. If you would like to have the vehicle shipped, let me know and I can make arrangements with your vehicle shipping provider after the listing closes. Buyer pays actual shipping costs.

Porsche unlocks secrets of its mid-engine 911

Fri, 23 May 2014

Porsche is beginning to realize that it's sitting on a goldmine of automotive history with its secret vault full of rare cars. Autoblog toured it a few months ago, and we were amazed at all of the curiosities hidden inside. Now, it's starting to let more folks in thanks to a new series of YouTube videos. The first covered the 965 prototype that shoved a water-cooled, Audi V8 into one of its cars. Next up, a mid-engine 911 that acted as the powertrain test mule for the Boxster.
The Porsche 911 is inextricably linked to its rear-engine layout. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. However, at the time Porsche was developing the Boxster, the company didn't want to lay all of its cards out of the table during testing. As opposed to using camouflage, it put a whole different car on top. The prototype looked just like any other 911 Targa of the day, but the biggest giveaway that something was amiss was the heavily tinted rear window. By obscuring it, inquisitive journalists couldn't peak at the new engine that replaced the backseat.
It might not look like anything too important on the outside, but this is a major piece of Porsche Boxster history underneath. Scroll down to watch the video about this fascinating prototype.

2013 Porsche 911 RSR makes official debut

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Porsche is ready to go racing in 2013, showing off a new 911 RSR today that is scheduled to compete in several endurance events this year. Based on the current 991 911, the new RSR will compete in the 2013 season of the World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It will not, however, make an appearance in a North American racing series this year.
The 2013 version of the racecar has increased in wheelbase by some four inches, features a new wishbone front suspension in place of the last-generation's McPherson strut setup and boasts a new, lightweight six-speed racing gearbox. The engine, meanwhile, is an "optimized" version of last year's car, a 460-horsepower 4.0-liter boxer six-cylinder. Extensive use of carbon fiber and polycarbonate windows help the RSR shed weight, and Porsche has also balanced the weight more evenly with a lower center of gravity.
Porsche has thoughtfully dedicated some space to celebrate the 911's 50th Anniversary, with the number 50 clearly visible in the top-down view of the RSR, as well as along the doors. Scroll down to read the full Porsche press release, below.

Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Porsche 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.
