Vehicle Detail
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.

Thanks!
