1991 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet. Last model year for the 944 and one of 563 total brought into the USA in 1991. Condition: Exceptionally good example of a well maintained and cared for 944. Car originally lived in California and then moved to Arizona from where I purchased it. Interior is in very good condition with no rips or tears. Power leather seats are in great condition with no issues. All power options work as they should. Dash has a few minor cracks which is common with the 944. Carpet is excellent with no wear spots. All lighting works. There is some minor curb rash on the rims that were present when I purchased the car. Rest of the wheel is very bright chrome in great condition. Both rear tires (255/35 ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport) are new with less than 1000 miles and frt tires (225/40 ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport) have at least 60% tread life remaining. Mechanical: Car is in excellent mechanical condition. The following is a listing of what has been replaced in the last 5000 miles: - New battery - Two new rear tires 255/35 ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport - New Ball joints - New tierod ends - New front struts and springs - New rear shocks - New Zimmerman drilled rotors at all four corners - New brake pads - New engine mounts (both sides) - New oil pan gasket - New rod bearings (changed when oil pan was off) - New valve cover gasket - New balancer chain tensioner - Timing belt replaced at 75K miles by previous owner (receipt in documentation) - New A/C expansion valve - New clock lamp (typical 944 problem now fixed) - New directional signal switch - New fuel filter - New belts Known items: Airbag light stays illuminated due to replacement of the directional signal switch. It has to be reset by someone that has the tool to do so. I have not yet found a local person that can reset it. Very minor oil leak. Leak only appears if he car has sat for long periods. It is evident by a few drops on the exhaust manifold which creates a few puffs of momentary smoke. The oil pan and valve cover gasket replacement were the first attempts to resolve it. I had intended to add leak dye to the oil and pinpoint it but just ran out of time before putting the car away for this winter. Leak is likely from the oil filter housing gasket or Power steering resevior. A new gasket kit is less than $50.00 on line A/C is not blowing cold as it should. It was diagnosed with a bad expansion valve which in turn was replaced. A/C was cold but I suspect there is a leak in the system which depletes the coolant. I suspect a schrader valve is leaking. Did not actively pursue as the top was down most of the time. Pluses: Very clean, original, well documented car. Garage kept, no winters and thus absolutely no rust. Southern California and Arizona vehicle. No accidents, no body work, original paint that is not perfect but is still very smooth and shiny. Excellent rubber on 18" chrome wheels Strut tower brace and cabin windscreen Strong engine. 50/50 weight distribution and sticky Michelins make this car a blast to drive. Have documentation of car history and original radio
