Feeler: 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo
Hey guys, this is mainly a feeler because I don't reealllyyy want to sell this thing, I love it, but I could use the money and I haven't had the time to enjoy it recently. If someone that is going to use it more than I do wants it, I will definitely consider letting it go.
1986, 140723 miles, guards red...
the bad:
-The paint is definitely not perfect. there are some chips and dents here and there and so on. It also needs a new Porsche emblem
-Needs new thermofan switch(which I have)
-Needs power steering belt and some mounting hardware(the tension rod broke)
-Will stall at idle(especially in traffic or while its raining! it knows, I swear!) which I have narrowed down to the sensor connectors behind the intake manifold. should just be a quick solder job to fix.
-Leaks a bit of oil.. if you don't drive it for a few days there will be a little stain on the driveway.
-Also burns a bit of oil when driving hard
the good:
-New timing belt, balance shaft belt, and front engine seals - only a couple thousand miles on them. I'll throw in the arnnworx tools with the car.
-Service records all the way back to the early 90s
-Uncracked dash!! seems to be rare in these cars
-Lindsey Racing boost enhancer, chips, 3 inch exhaust from the headers back
-Other than the things listed above, it doesn't need anything else that I know of. I actually used this thing as my daily driver for quite some time, and it is surprisingly reliable other than the stalling issue.
not gonna post a specific asking price, just kind of want to see if anyone is interested and hear some offers.
edit: I have a bunch more pictures but they came out really blurry for some reason. I'll have to retake some more.

You can add pictures like everyone else does. Are there any rust spots on the car from all the road salt up your way? You will have to bed it down pretty soon for the winter. As you may know, prices are in the dumps for well sorted out cars with no problems right now.
Cheers,

no rust at all - the car has been garaged or at least covered and not-driven almost every winter since the 90's (I actually have car-storage receipts from the P/O)

Good luck with the sale! When I saw it last, all the body panels were straight. The dents should be easy to pop-out, and the paint should buff nicely. Great car for someone!
