This is a re-list- the last auction ended when someone hit the "buy it now" button and never completed the transaction. I have eliminated the "buy it now" option on this auction so it can't happen again and instead, am auctioning off the car with a very low reserve. Please, if you (1)don't have your finances together, (2)aren't willing to make a deposit in 48 hours on PayPal, (3)complete the sale and pick up in seven days(3) aren't willing to pay the balance with a certified/cashiers check, cash or a wire transfer, I would prefer that you search for another car. Please ask all questions prior to the auctions close. I am selling this vehicle for the owner. His name is on the title. You are buying this vehicle from the owner, not me, I'm only acting as the auctioneer. This is a low mileage (71,420) 1988 Porsche 944 Turbo, 1 adult owner, never tracked, service records back to the beginning(timing belt and clutch were changed when the car had 30,000 + miles, which was over ten years ago), garaged, oil changed & inspected yearly, charcoal gray metallic/tan, no modifications, all original & complete with two keys, manual, bags, tools, bra. Has good spare, jack, compressor. Starts immediately, idles smoothly, shifts (trans. & clutch work great), no odors or major leaks, accessories (power windows, mirrors, seats, door locks, wipers, horn, lights) are working and gauges appear accurate. No cracks in dash, glass(all original) in good condition. The car is representative of a "driver" and the condition is "normal wear & tear" for it's age. Doesn't look like it was babied but not abused either. Clean NY title. Was driven from upstate NY to my home in the suburbs of Philadelphia, so is in good enough shape for a fairly long journey. There are some dings, scuffs, cracking paint, dents, paintwork(driver's door), ABS light is on, a/c not working, heat feels like it's on all the time, blower works only on high, sunroof not working(can hear motor but doesn't open-one latch is missing), steering wheel needs to be centered, some shake when applying the brakes(probably front brake rotors are warped), sounds like an exhaust leak on passenger side, has the suspension option(code #220). Has current NY state safety inspection. Good tires matching all around. This is a good candidate for leaving it as a driver(albeit straightening out the mechanical issues), or restoring it, because of the relatively low mileage, the legendary longevity of the motor, Porsche heritage, engineering, quality, etc.- needs some TLC and a good detailing, especially good for a PCA member who plans on doing the work by themselves. They're becoming more difficult to find, especially without modifications and low mileage. When they're right, these cars are very rewarding to drive; a real sports car, not a "GT", but would make a nice tourer, as well, contact Rob for additional questions and to arrange an inspection, 610-525-4757/610-283-9714
