1984 Porsche 944, 2.5L, 5 speed, moon roof, cruise, AC, PW, 98350 miles. All major maintenance including timing and balance shaft belts and pulleys, water pump, thermostat, lower radiator hose, oil pan and oil cooler gaskets and seals, rod bearings, clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing, clutch fork bearings, rotor, distributor, spark plugs and wires, motor mounts, radiator fan switch, rear caliper and brakes were completed over last winter.
Car runs, drives and looks good. The interior is in really good shape with just a couple of minor cracks in the dash. The body has been repainted by PO and has normal parking lot dings for its age and a cracked front air dam. There is also a couple of small dents in roof near moon roof. Moon roof needs left lift arm fixed but it does open and close and I have a parts car that has the parts to repair. Rear wiper does not operate. Engine idle is not smooth and is worse when the engine is cold but engine runs strong and revs up normally. Also, when driving normal the car has a vibration/rattle that can be felt in shifter (sounds like a heat shield or exhaust pipe rattle) at around 3000 rpm. When accelerating hard there is no vibration/rattle. Tires all have good tread on them and one doesn't match. AC blows cool but not cold.
We were told that by PO that we would be 3rd owner.
NOTE: Car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel the ad if it sells. Cash only. Buyer responsible for pickup or shipping. Car is being sold as is where is with no warranties.

UK Porsche GT3 owners are irked that other countries are getting better deals
Sun, 27 Apr 2014Porsche 911 GT3 owners in the United Kingdom are up in arms, but it's not for the reason you might think. Okay, well it sort of is. See, it's been fairly well documented that 911 GT3 owners have had their cars grounded over concerns that the engines could catch fire. Porsche is rushing to build and install replacement engines in all 800 or so cars, scattered around the globe.
This isn't really the issue. The problem for these British owners is compensation. While the car's have been grounded, car notes still need to be paid. To deal with this, American GT3 owners are being paid $2,000 per month. German owners get 175 euros ($242 at today's rates) per day while a GT3 owner in Dubai is allegedly receiving $12,000 (it's unclear if this is a lump sum or a monthly payment). Basically, if you aren't able to drive your six-figure super car, you shouldn't have to pay for it. Seems reasonable regardless of the make.
British owners, though, aren't being compensated, and for 30 to 35 owners, that's not acceptable. They've banded together and are led by Sunil Mehra.
Porsche close to fix for 911 GT3 engine fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014It looks like 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 drivers might actually get to drive their cars again soon. Reports of fires affecting the track-ready Germans first began about a month ago. Then, a few days later, the automaker confirmed two of the five alleged blazes and said owners shouldn't drive their cars until further notice. Porsche then went so far as to offer to pick up the GT3s and transport them to the nearest dealer until the problem was identified and a fix was found. Finally, there appears to be a repair.
"We know the reason and the problem-solving measures. We're testing them," said Porsche CEO Matthias Müller to Bloomberg. The technical fix will be released to owners shortly.
The recall affects all 785 GT3s that have been sold so far, but there have been no reported injuries caused by the fires. When it first announced the safety campaign, Porsche said: "Internal studies to determine the cause of the engine damage have not been completed yet."
Touring Italy in a classic Porsche will have you feeling continental
Wed, 13 Nov 2013It's hard to believe there was a time when a Porsche 911 didn't come to market with 400 horsepower. But as the latest video from Petrolicious reminds us, with this video of a 1968 911T, owned by Donato Maniscalco, that time wasn't so long ago.
You might think, being a distinguished man living in Italy, Maniscalco would be more enthused by a Ferrari, Maserati, or Lamborghini, but in reality, it was always Porsche that enamored the Italian as a boy. And it was that passion that led him to purchase the glorious 911T he's seen tossing about in this video.
Maniscalco goes into detail about what makes the old 911 such a legend, while also mentioning how he and the car participate in classic rallies and races. There's also some typically beautiful footage of the Italian countryside, as well. So take a look below for the latest video from Petrolicious.
