Vehicle Detail
Relisted due to non paying high bidder.This 1985 Porsche 944 was sold new in California where it has stayed its entire life. The car is finished in Guards Red over a black interior and powered by a 2.5L inline-four paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. I've had it just over a year. This 944 comes with service records for the things I've added and serviced performed, and a clean California title in my name. This car has been garaged the entire time of my ownership and being a lifetime California vehicle there is no rust present, even the battery tray is rust free! VIN: WP0AA0940FN472184Clean TitleDMV registration up to dateRuns GreatSmogged on first tryCarfax shows no issues with accidents, liens, or title issues The body is finished in Guards Red, and the paintwork is shown up close in the gallery below. Factory 15 inch “cookie cutter” wheels feature black centers with painted Porsche crest and polished lips and are fitted with Yokohama tires. I had new windshield professionally installed and is in perfect condition. Headlights have been upgraded to replaceable H4 style. Amber fog light bulbs installed. DME relay has been replaced with a Focus9 solid state relay (with Pump Prime) that will never wear out or need replacement. New Optima (sealed) battery has been equipped.Only944 shifting components were added, I drained and filled transaxle fluid, repacked and replaced rear CV joints. Aftermarket exhaust system gives a nice sound. These old 944s came with a spare tire that needed inflating --- so I purchased a modern Porsche 911 spare tire that is always inflated and ready to go if needed.The black interior features custom made perforated seats from Only944, a vintage MOMO D36 steering wheel, and a Blaupunkt stereo with Bluetooth built in. This is the “early version” of the 944, which had a mid-year change in 1985, so it has the “square” dash. VDO gauges include a 5-digit odometer showing 31,000 miles, approximately 1,000 of which I have added. Speedometer works but it was replaced actual mileage is about 120,000. Internal clock works as do all the gauges. Electric windows, sunroof, side mirrors and antenna all work as they should. Internal light bulbs have been upgraded to LED. Original interior was tan, I changed interior to all black by replacing and repainting some items.Previous owner was a mechanic and he rebuilt the engine 2,000 miles before I took ownership (so 3,000 miles ago). This included new timing belt, new clutch, new mass air flow sensor, and serviced the fuel injectors. There are signs that the car was repainted at some point. There are small chips in the paint and a discoloration on the hood of the vehicle that is visible in the right (or wrong) lighting. Front bumper lower valance could use paint touched up. Also heater and A/C do not function. Cruise control module and wiring has been removed as it did not function. Driver door may have been replaced at some point due to color variation. This car gets admiring looks and compliments wherever it’s driven. It won’t win concours competitions, but it is a very nice example of a 34 year old Porsche 944. Vehicle has never left me stranded or failed to start. Vintage California “Sunset” plates are period correct and a nice addition to this fine German automobile and can be transferred to new owner if so desired.Will come with two keys, Porsche key fob and all documentation from items added by current owner. Also included is two car covers, other miscellaneous items.You can pickup in Sacramento California, or I will assist in arranging shipping at your expense. eBay shipping quotes available. I've done my best to describe the vehicle as accurately as possible. Sold in as is condition. No returns. If you want to see a certain photo or angle, let me know and I can take that photo and send to you.
