1987 Porsche 944 Turbo Coupe 2-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Rochester, Michigan, United States
I bought the car about 10 years ago and after a few years I
decided to upgrade the motor to increase the horsepower. Below is a partial list
of performance upgrades. It now has around 380 hp and can run at 20lbs boost
with 100 octane gas or 17 with standard premium. In case you are wondering what
it’s capable of, the car does better than 175 mph. Many of the parts were purchased
from Lindsey Racing, they are extremely knowledgeable in Porsche cars. http://www.lindseyracing.com/LR/Parts/944.html I have never spent the time to upgrade anything on the
interior. The dashboard is cracked the driver’s seat has a tear on it as well.
The back seats are practically immaculate. There is absolutely no rust on this
car. The only issues with the car are the antilock brake light is
on and the readout for the air fuel ratio isn't working. This can still be
adjusted with a laptop through the Mafterburner software if needed. The airbag light is
on but it has been on since I owed the car, the guy I bought it from said he
disconnected the switch because of his son being in the car with him. Small drip from where the oil dipstick goes into engine block, must need an o-ring. I just bought my dream car a month ago so now I have 3 cars
and the Porsche has to go. This car is mechanically solid and corners awesome but with bad road conditions its a bit much to be a
daily driver in my opinion. Easily $8000 in upgrades but my loss is your gain, I just want it gone.

Porsche 911 Targa leaks out ahead of Detroit debut
Mon, 13 Jan 2014With the doors of Cobo Center opening for the 2014 Detroit Auto Show this morning, Porsche is set to reveal its new 911 Targa in a matter of hours. But before it gets the chance, the first batch of images have already leaked out, courtesy of Chinese car site autohome.com.cn.
As expected, the new Targa appears to ditch the complex sliding glass roof panels that adorned recent versions of the semi-convertible 911 in favor of a more back-to-basics approach. An entirely removable roof panel opens up the sky, backed by a metallic B-pillar hoop in front of a large curved-glass rear window.
We'll have to wait just a little longer for the full scope of images and all the official details, but we're expecting the new Targa to carry most of the same technical specifications as the 991 on which it's based. Watch this space for more.
Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
Porsche in Paul Walker fatal accident was traveling over 100 mph before crash
Fri, 03 Jan 2014The Porsche Carrera GT involved in the November crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and racer Roger Rodas was traveling at speeds above 100 miles per hour before Rodas lost control for "unknown reasons," according to a report from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office that has been acquired by The Hollywood Reporter.
Once control was lost, the Porsche spun, hit a curb and then impacted a tree and a light post, then it spun 180 degrees and hit another tree before erupting in flames, the report said. Neither Walker nor Rodas were under the influence of any drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, according to toxicology reports conducted by the coroner.
As for the future of the Fast and Furious franchise, a separate by The Hollywood Reporter claims director James Wan, writer Chris Morgan and Universal Studios will move forward with the seventh installment in the franchise, which was only partially completed when Walker was killed.
