FS / FT: 1986 944 Turbo - Charlotte, NC - $5,800

[klaus]

Asking $5,300 - Updated Price

Up for sale is my 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo.. I currently have a pair of 944 Turbos, and my wife tells me I don't need two of the exact same car so that is the reason I am listing it. I am in no hurry to sell, and have been driving this car to work on a daily basis so feel free to keep low ball offer to yourself. Also I am not willing to trade unless you have a Porsche 924S you want to offer as a partial trade, or you can offer to paint my other 944 plus some cash.

I would describe this car as a driver, a nice solid car that can be daily driven as is, or turned into a project if someone wanted to make it a track car, or perhaps a restoration effort. The cosmetics are the main issue with the car, the paint is faded, there are a couple of dents on top of the drivers side fender, and the interior shows its age. But from a driving stand point the car lives up to 951 expectations.

Basic Details:
- 1986 944 Turbo
- Graphite Grey over Black (Seats are dark blue, recovered by PO to match the sun faded carpet)
- MSW Wheels w/ New Tires
- Unknown Mileage (Odometer stopped working years ago, stuck at 69k)
- Good Compression Numbers (Head rebuilt in 2001)
- Newer Transmission (I replaced a faulty unit that was in the car w/ one from an '87)
- Solid Mechanical and Electrical Condition (Everything works)
- Some Records Going Back to 2000

- If the buyer wanted to offer a little more money I could install a M474 suspension in the car, it would come off my other 951
- I also have a set of black seats I could install, but the blue ones are in much better shape, that would be the buyers choice

The cup wheels have been sold, so the car is only available with the MSW wheels. I do have a full set of 951 Fuchs that could be worked in, but that would be above and beyond the asking price.

This last picture is of the dents in the drivers side fender mentioned above, I have had a few emails asking for closeups:

Some more pictures, the nose (with rock chips), drivers quarter (with clear issues), and the rear (with some bad touch up work).

Trying to show all the faults, but don't forget she drives great, I have been driving this car to work and it is a perfect commuter. Open to offers, but please be reasonable.

In the last few weeks I have taken care of a few issues on the car:

- Painted the roof, polished out some of the other imperfections. Paint is still far from perfect, but it does look a lot better
- Replaced the rear hatch carpet with a better piece. Still faded but an again it does look a lot better
- Replaced the drivers side door card

There is a local 924S I want to pick up to start my 924 GTS Tribute project. So feel free to make an offer.
