Vehicle Detail
I am the proud father of a baby girl and the time has finally come to sell my 1994 Porsche 968 cabriolet. I purchased the car back in 2005 but after a few years of light use, life got in the way and it has been parked at my parents home ever since. My father has been kind of enough to drive the 968 to keep it 'fresh'. Having said that, the car does need work. For the sake of valuation, please consider the vehicle to be in FAIR condition. The Kelly Blue Book Valuation for this 1994 Black on Black Porsche 968 cabriolet is ~ $10,000, however this auction has NO RESERVE! This vehicle is being sold AS-IS. More pics and video available by request! Here are the details you need and I will do my best to provide full disclosure:6-speedPower seatsUpgraded stereo and speakers (pics will show custom speaker box built into rear organizer - needs amplifier and wired for trunk CD changer)Cab top needs replacing (back window is cloudy, and under gusty winds and rain it leaks)No intermittent wipers (wipers work on low/high)Heat and A/C work great.Aftermarket shifter vibrates (makes a slight but constant noise since the aftermarket shifter does not weigh as much as original)Interior is in good shape (will add pics)Exterior needs workThe odometer is broken. The odometer broke at 88k miles in 2006. I listed the car in 2007 for sale at 99k miles just to cover extra miles since the odometer is broken. The car has barely been driven since then. For the purposes of sale and to be conservative please consider this car has 125,000 miles (actual mileage is much less).Oil change should be performed in the near future.Valid NJ Inspection.CD works great but limited AM/FM receptionAll lights work (internal in dash and external) I am purposely highlighting what I feel/know is wrong with the 968 and will answer any and all questions as well as I can.Having said all that, even though its Thanksgiving, this is no turkey! This 968 drives great (forgiving the above). Drives straight and is still a blast to drive. It is available to be viewed in Northern NJ (Bergen County) by request. This 968 is also for sale locally.On Nov-26-14 at 07:22:43 PST, seller added the following information: INCLUDED with the sale are:1 - Porsche OEM 968 car cover (has slight tears in it)1 - Porsche OEM 968 car braOn Nov-28-14 at 18:37:44 PST, seller added the following information: Here is a decoded breakdown of VIN for the this Porsche 968 # VIN Field Value Decoded Explanation 1 World Manufacturing Code W West Germany 2 Manufacturer P Porsche Automobil Holding SE 3 Model Type 0 Sports Car 4 USA/Canada Body Type C Cabriolét 5 USA/Canada Engine Type A Normally aspirated 6 USA/Canada Restraint System 2 Driver & passenger airbags 7 NHTSA year modifier 9 1st digit (auftragsnummer), pre-2010 registered vehicle 8 Vehicle Type Designation 6 2nd digit (auftragsnummer) 9 USA/Canada Checksum Digit 9 Matches (per NHTSA code) 10 Manufacture Year R 1994 11 Assembly Plant Location S Stuttgart 12 Vehicle Type Designation 8 3rd digit (auftragsnummer) [968 - Sport/Club Sport/turbo S] 13 Engine/Body Type 4 Cabriolét (USA spec) 14-17 Serial Number 261 Production/Sequence/Chassis Number On Nov-30-14 at 08:37:27 PST, seller added the following information: Here are the original option codes for this 968:C02 Catalytic converter XD4 Wheel caps with colored Porsche crest231 Internal production code related to tires331 Cassette-radio Porsche/Becker CR-1398 Left outside mirror - electric - plain 418 Side protection mouldings437 8-way electrical seat, left454 Automatic speed control490 Sound system657 Power assisted steering More pictures and info are available at https://app.box.com/968forsale On Nov-30-14 at 18:23:26 PST, seller added the following information: Correction/Update: Option Code 398 refers to the 17" Cup 2 Design Wheels which are currently on the 968.
