1987 Porsche 944S twin cam, 5spd coupe. This car is in real nice shape both in and out. Body is completely solid with no past or present rust or accident damage, and has been garage kept for most of its years. Doors, hood, power sunroof, hatch, all operate properly. Glass is all perfect, as well as door/window/power roof/hatch seals. Silver paint in nice condition, with few chips/scratches, hood was repainted due to sun fading, and has a couple very minor flaws, but overall car paint is very good. Power mirror, door locks, trim all in nice shape. Burgundy "sport" interior really nice, with no rips/tears. Carpeting, door panels, headliner, dash all real good shape, with only very small cracks between the defroster opening that are not very noticeable. rear hatch area carpeting also nice, and car comes with factory hatch area shade to block sun. Original matching color enclosure bag for removable sunroof is included, as well as original, never used "space saver" tire and Porsche tire compressor kit. Everything works on car, such as horn/blinkers/flipup lights/ac/power seats/power sunroof/power seats/radio/gauges/locks, etc. Engine, 5spd transmission, clutch, brakes, power steering, and all mechanicals operate smoothly as they should, and are in excellent shape. Engine very recently had new belts/head/battery/oil cooler reseal/coolant flush and new coolant/oil &filter, etc, and is fully serviced. Wheels are factory 16" "phone dial" pattern. Tires have 4-5000 miles left in them, but will need to be replaced before/after that. This is a two adult owner car that has been well cared for, and it shows. Car looks and drives very straight and tight, with no noises or surprises. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere. If you are in the market for a vintage Porsche 944, then you should really check out this factory twin cam 944S, which has 30 more horsepower over the standard 944, without all the turbo headaches.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS facing delay over GT3 fire problems?
Mon, 24 Mar 2014Porsche has never been afraid to introduce variants of its cars. However, its even higher spec, next-generation 911 GT3 RS may be delayed from its planned launch this summer while the engines in the standard GT3s (pictured above) are replaced.
A delay isn't certain, but executives want to make sure the high-strung mill is no longer a problem before they press forward with another model using it. Germany's Auto Motor und Sport asked Porsche CEO Matthias Müller about pushing back the launch, and he responded that it was too early to say. The company's current focus is making sure the engines get fixed and working on internal measures to prevent this kind of flaw in the future.
When fires claimed two 911 GT3s in Europe, Porsche initially stopped the model's sales and asked owners to stop driving them. It finally diagnosed the blazes as being caused by a loose screw on a connecting rod, which then resulted in crankcase damage and an oil leak. The company is replacing the engines on all 785 affected cars. A source told Autoblog that under 200 customers were actually affected, and the other cars were either at port or dealer lots. Hopefully, the recall doesn't postpone the road-going GT3 RS too far because we want to see what Porsche has up its sleeve.
Porsche 911 GT3 named Performance Car of the Year by Road & Track
Thu, 13 Nov 2014The Porsche 911 GT3 is a very, very good performance car. Yes, we know this is like saying fire is hot and a shovel to the head hurts. What's different about this proclamation, then? Well, we bring up the 911 GT3's inherent goodness because our friends at Road & Track have named it their 2015 performance car of the year.
This is, our joking aside, a big accomplishment for the 911 GT3, due largely to the field of cars it beat out. There were many equally track-focused wonders in attendance, including the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 and Dodge Viper SRT TA, as well as more capable everyday vehicles, like the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, BMW M3 and Ford Mustang GT.
But it was the 475-horsepower, rear-engined track star that R&T fell for, with editor-in-chief Larry Webster calling out the Porsche's ridiculous, howling, 9,000-rpm redline, while other editors cited its phenomenal handling character.
2014 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid
Tue, 09 Jul 2013Porsche's Performance Plug-in Preamble
By the end of this year, Porsche will be producing as many plug-in vehicles (two) as mainstream automakers such as Toyota, Chevrolet and Honda. Before the 2015 918 Spyder hybrid supercar goes on sale in the US, though, it will be warming its customers up to the idea of a plug-in model with the 2014 Panamera S E-Hybrid. A step up from the previous Panamera S Hybrid, the new plug-in Panamera adds a more powerful and advanced electric drive system that pledges to deliver the performance expected of a Porsche with the added benefit of improved fuel economy and reduced emissions.
Going on sale in November, the Panamera S E-Hybrid is aimed at customers also considering the upcoming plug-in version Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but the car's dimensions and performance could make it a competitor for Tesla Model S customers. We headed to Germany at Porsche's invitation to see how well it performs, as well as check out the full range of newly refreshed Panamera models, which now numbers nine offerings - although we're still waiting for a production version of the gorgeous Sport Turismo wagon concept.
