Up for bid is this 1977 Porsche 924. It is a coupe, 4 seater. Drivetrain is RWD with 4cyl engine and 4spd manual transmission. Engine is 2.0 liter. Because it was built later in 1977, it is upgraded from factory’s 95hp to 125hp. Car is garage kept and comes with a car cover.

It has the sports alloy wheels, and removable hard sunroof. Aftermarket radio and a subwoofer speaker box in trunk are the only upgrades of the car, everything else is stock.

THE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT MECHANICAL CONDITION. It has been well maintained and never abused or smoked. An older red paint that a good polish will really liven it up. Disappearing headlights work very well. All gauges work fine. Mileage shown is around 61200. I can almost believe this to be a true reading based on the overall condition of the car. But I have no way of verifying the correct mileage.

The clutch grabs well and has good pick up. Transmission goes smoothly through all the gears. Tires only have 1000 miles on them. Exhaust is only a few years old. Suspension has no play and needs no work. The weather stripping is very good and the sun roof which is removable is water tight. The windshield and all glass is in good condition as there are no cracks or visible scratches. The AC compressor was removed by a prior owner. Heat works fine. Radio is aftermarket Sony with a remote. Spare tire and jack are in good working condition.

Recently, a new timing belt and a new water pump were installed. We also performed a full tuneup on the car. Recent work included: oil service, front and rear brakes redone, front struts replaced.
The engine was professionally painted outside the car as can be seen in pictures. The engine compartment and undercarriage are also clean. Headlight motor just stopped working, not sure if wiring or motor is knocked out. It's available for $75.00. Also just installed new Interstate battery.

This car has no rust, other than minor bubbling which I took detailed pictures of (around antenna and Porsche emblem in the front. The floor/trunk panels are in excellent condition, absolutely no rust (see pictures). The undercarriage does not show its age. This is an extraordinary example of an unmolested sports car ready for enjoyment or a much fuller restoration to bring it back to its glory. Shipping fees are the buyer's full responsibility.

Car inspection is welcome and recommended but only prior to the end of the auction or a firm offer has been accepted. . A PayPal Account is required. Car will be released upon full payment in cash or after a certified check has cleared the bank. Deposit is nonrefundable under any condition. Cost of shipping documents and any after-sale expenses (if any) are the winning bidder’s responsibility.. You can message me thru eBay for further inquiries or if you are really serious you can call me at 973-960-2673. (Eastern Standard Time). If you have less than 50 bids, you must email me first to maintain your bid. If you are the lucky bidder, you must be ready to make a PayPal deposit of at least %500.00 to confirm your intent to complete the purchase. Such deposit is nonrefundable should you change your mind. Balance is due in full in 7 days or less via cash, or certified bank check. (No PayPal payment of balance)

Bid as if you will own this car. Good luck!

P.S. I am forced to relist car due to deceitful, non paying bidder.

The mid-engine Porsche backstory

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

As an automaker's identity evolves over years, its signature becomes defined by any number of factors - heritage (Mercedes-Benz), image (Lamborghini), or market share (Toyota). In the case of Porsche, it was an engineering quirk that forged the German company's most enduring character trait.
Porsche would not have survived - let alone, thrived - in today's saturated landscape had it not been for the 911, and that slope-tailed sports car wouldn't have sprung to life without its predecessor, the 356. While phenomenal success of those rear-engine icons built the company, forays into the mid-engine configuration have played a significant part in establishing the brand's identity.

Drive-up bank robbery perpetrated with Cayenne and WRX

Sat, 14 Sep 2013

Thieves carried out what appears to be a movie-script-perfect robbery of a bank in Sydney, Australia early on Friday morning, using two stolen high-performance vehicles in the process.
At around 11:15 AM local time, in near mid-day light, reports say that two men in masks smashed into the side of a Westpac bank in a confirmed-stolen black Porsche Cayenne. The perpetrators were armed with sledgehammers according to witness reports, and took only about five minutes to take what they were after inside of the bank.
The rapid getaway was executed in a Subaru WRX, also confirmed as a stolen vehicle, while witnesses snapped camera phone images of the illicit goings on. One Twitter user posted a few of the images to his social media feed; you can take a look at them in our small gallery below. Follow on down for the full video report, from The Sydney Morning Herald.

VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
