1986 Porsche 930 M491 3.3L Turbo Slantnose Convertible Conversion. Outstanding Condition! NO RESERVE
A meticulously detailed conversion with all steel slant nose front fenders, box rockers and rear fender vents on an incredible low mile Rare Porsche Turbo Look M491 Factory Wide Body which is registered in the Porsche Turbo Look Registry. All original turbo metal flares, turbo brakes, turbo suspension and factory 7J and 9J Fuch wheels. This Porsche received a 3.3L turbo engine and I had an engine out service with all receipts. It turns 325 HP with a K27 turbo and 1 bar boost spring, Porsche 964 style Blownsix intercooler, dual stainless Powerhaus exhaust with 4 inch outlets and Fabspeed fresh air intake. It has the short shift and been lowered to Euro specs.
The K27 turbo spools up and pins you to your seat through all four speeds with no turbo lag and the sound is all Porsche! Loaded with extras including: RUF polyurethane front spoiler and oil cooler, factory Porsche 930S leather steering wheel with crest, factory Euro Porsche center console with CD holders and gauges (not connected), custom Porsche "turbo" embossed pedals, updated (87-89) rear center reflector, Momo shift knob and Kenwood eight speaker CD and MP3 stereo with remote.
All owner’s manuals, tools, jack and tire air compressor in excellent condition are included. All receipts since I have owned. Driven only in summer and garaged with dust cover (included). Nonsmoker (lighter and ashtray like new). The convertible top and boot are like new and the rear window is clear. Two sets of front floor mats including originals and velour trunk liner. Two sets of ignition keys and Porsche wheel lock keys. Spare tire is pristine.
32,692 miles and it shows. The pictures speak for themselves! A real head turner everywhere you go. Meticulously maintained and taken care of. The car is detailed to perfection and all the rubber trim, whale tail and bumper guards are like new and show no wear. The interior including top, visors, dash, door panels and rear seats show exceptionally well and the velour carpets are like new. The paint shows beautifully with very few imperfections. It is easily a 9+ out of 10. The tires are new with little wear and the 7J and 9J turbo rims still have the original valve stem supports.
Engine out service included all new seals, hoses, fuel filter, warm up regulator, oil sensor, engine sound pad and all fresh fluids. No leaks! New Euro Interstate battery. Over $6700 in receipts.
The branded title was not as much an issue with me as this Porsche was in such great condition. I have documentation from the Washington State Patrol verifying that the salvage report was due to an insurance theft recovery. The car is laser straight. The 3.2 engine, hood/turbo tail, wheels and front seats were stolen. The front seats could have a re-dye. I have owned for almost seven years and it has always been garaged and only driven in the summer months. In addition, the air conditioner is not connected (it’s a convertible). The 1986-1989 Porsche air cooled turbo bodied cars, experts agree, were the best ever built as driver’s input was direct and pure. I am a mature owner and a PCA member and I am meticulous with my Porsche. I looked well over two years before I purchased this Porsche. The condition is outstanding and the conversion was done to perfection and I am confident that it will bid accordingly. I welcome inspections. The 930S license plate goes with a Washington purchase. Additional pictures upon request.

See what the Chevy C7 ZR1 may be benchmarked against
Tue, 07 May 2013One of the greatest things every Corvette has had going for it, and also one of the most re-used arguments against it, is its price-to-performance equation - long before the Nissan GT-R became the de facto Porsche 911 comparator the Corvette spent decades as Exhibit A. Depending on which side of the argument you stressed, supporters crowed about how much performance you got for how (comparatively) little, detractors carped on how little you got everywhere else in the bargain.
It appears Chevrolet is working as hard as ever to render the argument meaningless. Spy shooters at KGP captured a convocation of European birds of prey leaving the General Motors test center, and aimed at benchmarking the C7 Corvette ZR1. The road train comprised of two C7 Corvette Stingrays, a 2013 Corvette ZR1, McLaren MP4-12C, Ferrari 458 Italia, Audi R8 V10 Spyder and Porsche 911 Carrera S and it was last seen heading down the same kinked-up back roads used to hone the Corvette Stingray.
The C7-series ZR1 and its possible 700 horsepower are still a ways off. If it really is being positioned to compete with the celestial exotica in the testing group, could it be the first Corvette to regularly be the first answer to the question "Cost no object, which would would you rather have?"
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 reportedly working on new turbocharged flat-four boxer engine?
Wed, 10 Apr 2013These days, we've seen just about every automaker dropping cylinders in an effort to appease tightening fuel economy and emission standards - and Porsche is no exception. Nearly three years after introducing an all-new V6 powerplant under the front hood of its Panamera sedan (launched with a range of V8 engines) comes word that Porsche is working on an all-new turbocharged flat-four boxer to replace the flat-six engines mid-mounted in its Cayman and Boxster models.
Specifics have yet to be learned, but reports say the engine is a derivative of the current 3.8-liter six (shown above) found under the rear decklid of the Carrera S, yet with two fewer cylinders. Fitted with a turbocharger, direct-injection and the automaker's VarioCam Plus, the new all-aluminum 2.5-liter flat-four will likely develop upwards of 350 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Redline should be about 7,500 rpm. Initial indications say that Porsche will only offer the new engine with its seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic, tuned to take advantage of the low-end torque, but a traditional six-speed manual gearbox has not been ruled out. Despite the loss of two cylinders, enthusiasts will likely embrace the new engine as it promises to be lighter, more fuel efficient and more powerful than the 2.7-liter and 3.4-liter sixes in the Cayman/Boxster today.
Even though Porsche has been using Volkswagen Group engines for years (e.g., Cayenne V6, Cayenne Diesel and upcoming Macan), all indications are that the new flat-four will not be shared. Instead, it will be kept in-house for the automaker's sports cars and possible future fitment in an entry-level 911.
