1980 Porsche 928 running driving project car. 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 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. 


The car is sitting in my driveway which is not flat. It needs to be leveled and that is why the car seems to be sitting a bit odd. 

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. It is missing the driver side 2 driving lights. 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. 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.  Also I ship cars for a living and can get it delivered to you.  

reserve is set at $1500

Some added info:

Yes, the car is an S model and it has the m28/12 drivetrain. I rechecked again today, cleaned the block vin off and that IS what it is. The car has a euro pod but no third light in rear bumper. Not sure why but that's how it is. 

Drivers front corner is NOT wrecked, it looks kinda weird in the first photo but wasn't wrecked. The drivers side fog/driving lights and bezel are missing because the guy took them out when he was trying to get headlights to open and close, lost the parts thereby leaving them off. 

The white stuff in some of the pics is wax that needs to be cleaned off. 

I noticed a few pieces of window trim are loose, the rear quarter windows don't have the aluminum trim installed. Never got them. Still looks good. I think the paint could be wetsanded and buffed out nicely with some touchup. Looks like a couple of runs. 

Over spray on rear bumper thingees and on drivers front driving lights. 

Drivers door needs adjusting to close tight and outer handle is off. I have it. Also interior handles are both NEW.  

Sold as-is where is. Clean title NOT salvage either.

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

That title about says it all. This is a hot lap of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, with Porsche Works Driver Patrick Long at the wheel of a Porsche 918 Spyder. The camera is basically showing us everything that Long sees, making this not just one of the coolest 918 videos we've seen, but also one of the neatest laps of CoTA.
As Long peers through the bends, so will you. You'll see him fight the wheel, and find out just how difficult it is to hustle this hybrid hypercar around a world-class track at speed. It's pretty darn entertaining. There are also a few scattered shots of the 918's exterior just to break up the interior awesomeness, although we aren't exactly complaining about those. Take a look below for the short video from Porsche.

2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

I don't care who you are; when a new Porsche 911 rolls up in your driveway, that's a pretty good day. This was my very first experience with Porsche's 991 911, and after having spent time with just about every tune and trim of the last car, I was hotly anticipating comparing and contrasting.
Somehow (I don't remember sending out any cash-filled, unmarked envelopes) I'd scored a week in the 911 Carrera 4S over a long holiday weekend, too. That meant that I'd get to A) log a ton of miles in one of the best cars in the world, B) get to show-off the Porsche to family and friends and C) tempt cops in three states to pull me over. Good thing I've got the Autoblog traffic lawyer on speed dial...

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
