1989 Porsche 928 S-4 on 2040-cars
Haymarket, Virginia, United States
|
1989 Porsche 928S4. White w/ Dark Navy Blue leather. Automatic. 96,650 Miles. Exterior is in great condition. The paint looks very nice and there is no damage anywhere on the car. The only flaw is a small dent by the tail light that can be taken out by any paintless dent removal company. The navy blue interior is in real nice condition. Seats are in great condition, no rips or tears. Steering wheel, carpets, interior trim pieces, door panels are all in great condition. Upper dash has the usual 928 cracks on the instrument pod, but a nice dash cover would fix that. I have a custom fit carpet cover on the dash currently. I also have custom $300 floor mats that were made for the car and will include with the purchase. Upgraded head unit to an Alpine AM / FM / CD / IPOD w/Cable. The original wire antenna is still mounted on the roof. Speakers are new Pioneer 6 1/2" in the rear and Polks 4 1/4" up front. The trim pieces are all good. The controls are standard S4. Heating and air controls, vent, climate control sensor, stereo, 24 hour clock, ash tray, shift control, armrest/storage, window controls, moon roof, and rear windshield wiper controls. Everything works, but the AC will likely need a charge. Has front and rear A/C. There is nothing mechanically wrong with the Porsche. Engine and transmission are in great shape and sound awesome. Mobil 1 Synthetic religiously. Has Stainless Steel X-Pipe + Rear Muffler Bypass = 358 HP+. This 928 has a distinct sound like no other. Both front doors are Dynamatted, Front floor mats have been backed by 3/8" neoprene. Rear wheel wells (where the 6 1/2" speakers reside) have been filled with foam. Rear trunk has also been padded with 3/8" neoprene. Cabin was quieted down for the X-pipe & RMB. The battery/spare tire compartment is clean. The spare is there. The rear seats fold down perfectly and the seat backs (Carpet) are in great shape. The vinyl panels in the rear compartment are in good condition but warped a little from the sun -- Every 928 has this problem. The entire ceiling/headliner is in good shape.. The moon roof works most of the time. I have a feeling it is the switch on the center console. I purchased extra switches, but never go around to it (but will include them). Front and rear visors all work and are in great condition. The wheels are factory 928 S4. Polished wheels perfectly balanced and true. The Tires are Kumho Ecsta ASX. Fronts are 225-50R-16, Rears are 245-50R-16. The tread life is excellent on these tires and they are like new. The oversized calipers brake this car very well. Carbon Fiber Brace under the hood. Replaced the stock aluminum one. This car has always been adult owned. Never abused and I always keep it garaged. I bought it as a collectible, have owned it for 3 1/2 years and only take it on the occasional Sunday drive. The timing belt and water pump were done shortly before I bought it and I have only put a couple hundred miles on it since I purchased. I would advise having it done again soon, as it is recommended every 4-5 years or 40K miles on these 928's. I can recommend you a good shop that can do it. Overall, a beautiful example with only minor little things to fix (which are typical on ALL 928's). Not many nice & clean examples left! Auction will end if a local deal is made, or acceptable offer is received through Ebay. Please feel free to email me with any questions or to come see it prior to bidding. Thank you. |

China bans military license plates on luxury autos
Wed, 01 May 2013Driving a vehicle with a military license plate in China provides many privileges. Legally reserved for official vehicles only, the designation apparently allows drivers to enjoy special liberties on the roads, including breaking traffic laws, filling up with free fuel and receiving light-and-siren escorts through congested cities. So attractive are the benefits that there is a secondary market for used legal and counterfeit plates - especially among those wealthy enough to afford luxury cars. But all of that is reportedly coming to an end, as President Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission, is on a mission to fight corruption in his country.
A new license plate system goes into effect today, and it is designed to "maintain social harmony, stability and the reputation of the military," says the PLA Daily, the armed forces' official newspaper. While the abuse has been going on for many years, the internet has put the spotlight on the bad behavior, and the negative press does not represent the morals and true colors of the armed forces, say officials.
While military-plated Porsche drivers have been singled out as offenders, Bloomberg notes that all vehicles with engine displacements above 3.0 liters and with a sticker price in excess of about $73,000, will be banned from receiving military plates. This includes vehicles from Audi, Cadillac, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln and the Volkswagen Phaeton. Even if drivers are savvy enough to circumvent the new issuing system, the military has put technology at toll gates to catch users of counterfeit plates. There has been no word on the punishment if caught.
Mercedes-AMG GT vs. Porsche 911 [w/poll]
Thu, 11 Sep 2014Mercedes-Benz designed the AMG GT to compete head-on with the Porsche 911. It's a clear, singular purpose, and Benz brings a lot of money, technology and race-bred expertise to the fight.
The AMG GT is Merc's followup to the awesome SLS AMG, the retro-modern, gullwing-doored coupe that took us by storm half a decade ago. But this new GT coupe is a more focused sports car than the SLS, rather than an all out supercar capable of extreme performance. It's got a brand-new V8 engine, and state-of-the-art technology that help it to not only be a proper Mercedes, but to be a serious performer.
Mercedes will sell its new baby in two models. The GT S arrives first, in spring 2015, followed by the standard GT in mid-2016. Of course, there's room to grow from there. And while Porsche may have already expanded its 911 range to include a vast variety of models, here's how Stuttgart's icon stacks up against Affalterbach's bad boy.
2013 Porsche 911 RSR makes official debut
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Porsche 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.
