1980 Porsche 928 running driving project car. I'm told this is the euro with the speedometer in kilometers 167,000 and all gauges labeled in german. Very cool. It has the engine that's much more powerful than the US model commonly seen. The 300 horse euro is actually hard to find nowadays it seems. The car fires right up, doesn't smoke, runs well too. I drove it 2 1/2 hours straight with no overheating or engine/trans problems. I don't think the heater heats. Drivers side door panel is off but I have most of it. Rear hatch interior panels are gone because the guy was planning on racing it but never got that far.  I have one of the rear seats and I believe half of the other one. Needs a drivers window switch. Motor works but switched recently stopped. May be a fuse. Drivers door handle is off but included. I think the brakes need a check up but they do work and it does drive. The car needs new plug wires also. Like I said it DOES run strong. I'm not one for beating on cars but couldn't resist a little acceleration action on the freeway ramp on my 2 1/2 hr drive. It was like a rocket on wheels. I think it could use a tuneup and general maintenance but man-o-man it has some serious power. 


This is an Arizona car also. Solid. Needs a muffler. It's loud. There is a crack in the windshield also.


Wheels shown are not included. I have a standard set of porsche 928 rims/tires that will go with it.  It looks like the rear quarters were altered slightly for bigger rear tires. I think it looks better than the stock wheel wells. The rear lip was moved up about an inch or so. They kept the original contours and lip but removed about an inch above the lip. Improved the shape greatly IMO. It's ready for some track tires or wide rims if you like. It looks like the car may have been hit in the far left corner at one time. Seems like the rear quarter has been straightened. It looks great going down the road. Paint is a ten footer but again it looks pretty sharp going down the road. I know there is a paint run under pass side mirror. The headlights won't go down and I don't know why but peeked at the relay board and realized the headlight motor relay was not there. I suspect the previous owner used the relay for something else perhaps.  I DO have the headlight covers for it also. Front spoiler is missing mostly. Looks like they hit a curb. Rear spoiler needs to be bolted down tighter than it is. Hood catch needs to be looked at. It latches on the first notch but not second. Front seats need recovering. I have a really nice set of front power seats and rear seats from another 928 that have been recovered that I'd consider selling. 

Overall this is a very cool project 928. Also it is the desirable NON-sunroof car. Factory color was dark green, oak green I think. Needs a dash cover and pod cover like most of them do. Would make a killer race track car. Sold as-is. I will add more pics asap. Also I ship cars for a living and can get it delivered to you.  

reserve is set at $1500

Jay Leno plugs himself into Porsche's 918 Spyder

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

As one of the greatest sports car manufacturers of all time, when Porsche puts out a new, ultra-exclusive hypercar, enthusiasts tend to stand up and take note. Jay Leno is no exception, and now, the funnyman is finally getting his time with awesome 918 Spyder.
With his 1963 Porsche 356 and his 2005 Carrera GT flanking a Liquid Silver 918, Leno takes us through the basics of this plug-in hybrid roadster alongside Daniel Eastman of Porsche North America. Following the chat, Leno and Eastman take the German-plated car through the streets of California, testing it in a number of modes and even going on a short, all-electric freeway cruise.
If you're looking to learn more about the 918, or to just here its glorious gas engine at work, you'll want to scroll down and take a look at the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.

Muffler Man gets racing suit to mark progress on Porsche Experience Center

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

In a dramatic change of careers, a fiberglass Muffler Man statue on the side of a busy Los Angeles freeway, formerly known as "Golf Guy," traded in his clubs for a Porsche driver's suit a couple days ago. It's no coincidence, as he's standing on land that the German automaker bought from the Dominguez Hills Golf Course a couple years ago to build its west coast Porsche Experience Center - which will be complete with a test track, restoration and maintenance facilities, a cafe and restaurant, a home for Porsche Motorsports North America and more, when it's finished in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Porsche Muffler Man will serve as the gatekeeper to the 53-acre center and overlook the test track on the side of the 405 freeway. We can't think of a better job for a fiberglass giant that used to watch golf all day than to watch Porsche road cars and racecars getting wrung out on a test track in the middle of LA. Since Muffler Men are quite adaptable, we're sure this one will fit into his new role in no time - just as easily as he can double as Paul Bunyan.
Check out the press release below for more information on the Muffler Man and the experience center, which could be the ultimate adult playground when it's finished.

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.
