1990 Porsche 944 S2 Convertible 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Montgomery, Alabama, United States
I looked for a long time to find a well-maintained, undamaged, low mileage 944 s2 cabriolet, and if you've been looking, you know how hard they are to find. This is a stunning 46,675 mile car and is all original with no modifications. Guards red exterior with black leather, black top and near new tires on factory 16" s2 alloys. Car runs, drives, looks outstanding. –Exterior- Guards red finish is excellent. The surface is straight with no door dings and shines very well, as you'd expect of a garaged car (many clear coats of the day oxidized and became hazy; this paint looks fabulous). The rear tag panel had scratches when I purchased the car and I had it professionally matched and painted, along with the small, always faded plastic rear fender caps. The paint in the door jambs, under the hood, and other "non-viewed" places still looks excellent. The doors, hood and trunk shut with authority and all gaps are uniform and proper. –Interior- The black interior is in outstanding condition, noting the miles and care given the car. The door panels are uncut and pristine, as is the carpet. The dash has no cracks, nor does the console. The rear seats appear as new. The switchgear works great. Air conditioning blows cold; power seats, windows, mirrors, locks and cruise all work as designed. This 944 even has heated seats! There are no faults known regarding the operation of this car's electronics, even the clock works! Also, the car has it's original am/fm cassette palyer, along with the optional amp and equalizer. The original, unused inflatable spare is present, as is the porsche air pump and all original trunk accessories (tools, plastic gloves, etc). –Engine, Drivetrain- The car starts with the first twist of the key, settles into an easy idle, and holds excellent pressure. It pulls strong and shifts crisply, without the sloppiness of higher mile cars. This car is steady and stable at any speed. Steering and clutch feel fantastic with no shudder; it brakes with no pulling or fading. Honestly, the car drives just like you'd hope a low mileage well-maintained porsche would. Additionally, a full belt service(timing, etc.), along with water pump replacement, was performed within the last 350 miles. –Overall- This 944 is super reliable, fast enough for most any street driver, capable, plus get fantastic fuel economy. The tops seal as well as a coupe, and these cars are handlers. I've owned lots of sports cars, but the s2 is a league ahead in confident, no drama performance and handling. This car is as nice an example as i have seen; I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere, has ample trunk space, and is serviced for road worthiness. Fly in and drive it home!....best wishes in your bidding. |

This is why we love the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer
Tue, 11 Nov 2014In the world of restomods, Singer Vehicle Designs is inarguably one of our absolute favorites. The company, founded by rocker Rob Dickinson, has made its name as an obsessive constructor of vintage, built-to-order Porsche 911s with modern internals and beautiful accouterments.
Xcar has put together a lengthy interview with Dickinson, covering the source of his fascination with the 911 and his passion for automotive design, before falling into his rock-and-roll days with his band Catherine Wheel. He also covers how he got into the world of modifying Porsches, rather than just restoring them. There's much, much more in the video, though, and we promise, you won't want to miss it.
Take a look.
Porsche Macan spied, all lit up and dodging flurries
Thu, 17 Jan 2013We've seen the upcoming Porsche Macan testing on surface roads and even on the Nürburgring, but here we have our first spy shots showing a disguised prototype doing some winter testing in snowy conditions. Still obscured by plenty of camouflage attempting to mimic its larger Cayenne sibling, we still can't get a clear look at what the Macan's face and rump are going to look like, although it does appear that some details for the front lighting are starting to emerge.
Below the headlights, those are obviously decals trying to look like turn signal lenses, but it appears that there is still some sort of lighting being hidden judging by the small circles cut into the camo. Lower in the fascia, we can also see there are LED running lights not revealed on past prototypes. The entire rear end of this Macan prototype still appears to be tacked-on camo, but the side view appears to be in production form save for the poorly disguised rear quarter windows.
As we've seen in the past, Porsche engineers are still testing the Macan alongside the Audi Q5 with which it shares its platform. There has been no word as to when we could expect to see the Macan in production or concept form, but we'd have to guess that this compact crossover is getting ready to shed its camo very soon.
Porsche unlocks secrets of its mid-engine 911
Fri, 23 May 2014Porsche is beginning to realize that it's sitting on a goldmine of automotive history with its secret vault full of rare cars. Autoblog toured it a few months ago, and we were amazed at all of the curiosities hidden inside. Now, it's starting to let more folks in thanks to a new series of YouTube videos. The first covered the 965 prototype that shoved a water-cooled, Audi V8 into one of its cars. Next up, a mid-engine 911 that acted as the powertrain test mule for the Boxster.
The Porsche 911 is inextricably linked to its rear-engine layout. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. However, at the time Porsche was developing the Boxster, the company didn't want to lay all of its cards out of the table during testing. As opposed to using camouflage, it put a whole different car on top. The prototype looked just like any other 911 Targa of the day, but the biggest giveaway that something was amiss was the heavily tinted rear window. By obscuring it, inquisitive journalists couldn't peak at the new engine that replaced the backseat.
It might not look like anything too important on the outside, but this is a major piece of Porsche Boxster history underneath. Scroll down to watch the video about this fascinating prototype.
