For sale, rare 1988 Porsche 944 "Celebration Edition" model. There were only 250 of these made and shipped to the United States in this color. Unfortunately, I did not realize how special it was until after I replaced the worn interior, one of the things that made it so unique. I will include the "celebration edition" driver and passenger seats which could be sold for a nice profit to collectors who are restoring their cars. The engine runs great. It's been well maintained with regular oil changes. The following repairs have been made in the last 18 months: new starter, new master and slave clutch cylinders, new rear rotors, new brake pads, new thermostat, new cylinder head and head gasket, new fuel lines, new fuel pump, new timing belt, new alternator & balance shaft belts, new radiator and expansion tank, new gas tank, new right front tie rod. It also has relatively new tires on it. One thing the new owner will want to take care of is the replacement of one of the fuel injectors. I understand the part runs about $130 and should not require much labor in replacing it. Additionally, there is also a power steering leak I've not had a chance to troubleshoot. The exterior and interior door mechanisms need repair/replacement. Replacement parts are available and can be installed relatively easy. The AC does not work. The power mirrors, odometer and power sunroof do not work. The motorized head lights work partially and may only require adjustment. I've had them in the manual mode and left in the raised position. Overall the body and paint are in fair to good condition. There is cracking and significant peeling on the hood and a few dents on the front end. I recently replaced the center part of the front end which contains the emblem. The interior is in pretty good shape, pictures of the interior to follow in the next day or so. Judging from the title , the car was in an accident and the insurance company wrote it off in December 2008. The car seems very sound and drives/handles great! The title is up to date. After spending thousands on the engine, the new owner should not have much to contend with going forward.

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you
Fri, 03 May 2013The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.
Petrolicious explores long-term living with Porsche's 914/6
Thu, 15 May 2014After its last video starred none other than the spectacular Ferrari 250 GTO, where was there for the video team at Petrolicious to go? Certainly, in the realm of classics, there are only a few other vehicles that can match the badge and pedigree of the ultra-rare Ferrari. Maybe a Jaguar D-Type or an Aston Martin DBR1? No, this latest video doesn't star either of those British icons. It stars an oft-misunderstood, occasionally derided entry from Germany's most sporting manufacturer - Porsche.
Yes, we've gone from a Ferrari 250 GTO to a Porsche 914/6. As is often the case with Petrolicious, though, the story told about the car by its owner are often more important than the make or model of car being highlighted. That's exactly the case here, as Jack Griffin talks about the 38 years he's spent with this particular Porsche.
Having been born into the Volkswagen fold and introduced to Porsche in the best way possible - behind the wheel of a 356 - Griffin has some interesting stories (including his attempt at running the 12 Hours of Sebring), and he knows a fair bit about some of the 914's attributes.
Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.
