Polar Silver, Medium Gray Leather Interior, Black Convertible Top, 40,500 miles, see Options Sticker Photo, $26,000
Polar Silver, Medium Gray Leather Interior, Black Convertible Top, 40,500 miles, see Options Sticker Photo - Absolutely no work required on this car--- additional photos at https://porsche968cab.shutterfly.com/pictures
This car is in immaculate condition (as evidenced by the photos) and is near concours condition (if not already). I have owned it for the past 15 years (I’m the second owner) and have put less than 6,000 miles on it. It has been garaged and stored in winters and has not even been driven in the rain since I bought it. No one has driven it but me as I had planned on keeping it forever but as most Porsche owners experience, space has run out as I have 3 Porsches now. This was my first 968 after owning four 944s (which were my daily drivers). I’ve been a PCA member for over 25 years and truly appreciate these cars. This one is an outstanding color combination and has been meticulously maintained.
It is completely original except for:
· B&B Cat Back Exhaust – Stainless Steel – cost over $1600.00
· Gemballa 3 Piece Wheels with Yokohama Performance Tires with less than 3000 miles (see photos) – cost over $6000.00
· Professionally installed sound system (ABT Electronics) – Kenwood Head unit, Xtant Amplifier, MB Quart 2-Way, 4 Piece speakers with crossovers, low pass filters, high-end wires – cost over $4000.00
I still have the original Cup Wheels with Yokohama tires, original head unit and the original cat back exhaust and muffler all in great shape.
Mechanicals:
· Complete tuning with all new fluids: engine, transmission, antifreeze, etc. less than 2000 miles ago
· Distributor cap, wires and thermostat have less than 5000 miles
· New timing chain (preventative due to age) at 38,000 miles
· Brakes have less than 7000 miles on them and bearings were repacked at the same time
· Only Mobil 1 synthetic oil utilized since my acquisition
· Engine and mechanicals (other than exhaust) are 100% original. There have been no breakdowns or repairs made to this engine or drive train other than preventative.
The car runs phenomenal, it sounds amazing with the B&B, the transmission is outstanding and overall this car is an 11 out of 10.
Exterior:
The entire vehicle is original with no body work, no paint, no fading and there are no dings anywhere. There are 2 small stone chips on the hood that can easily be repaired. The wheels flawless as they are brand new and tires still have the nubs as they have less than 3000 miles on them. The black convertible top is still like new with no fading, no tears and no leaks. Like most all cabs, the back vinyl window, while not faded, has surface scratches that can be buffed out. The electric convertible top mechanism works perfect.
Interior:
The medium grey leather sport seat interior is outstanding with no scuffs, tears, abrasions and limited to no creases. The dashboard is perfect with no cracks. I had custom seat covers made for the car (see photos) which have been on the car at all times to protect the leather seats. The covers are a waterproof wetsuit material and will come with the car. All of the lights, gauges and electronics are in perfect working order. As noted above, I had a professionally installed, high-end sound system put into the car (which I will sorely miss). See photos.
Other:
Please email me with any questions. As a long time PCA member, I value honesty and integrity. The car is listed elsewhere across the US and so I reserve the right to terminate this listing. Test drives only for serious buyers. The vehicle is located in a northwest suburb of Chicago 10 minutes from O'Hare airport. I will provide transportation to/from O'Hare for visits but the buyer will need to arrange for pickup/shipping of the vehicle at his/her own expense. I have many pictures and all maintenance records. Contact me for further into.
Thank you very much for looking!!!
