Last chance before I put my 951 on Ebay.
I am thinking about selling it as I just bought another 928.
Asking price is $8000.
Dropped $500. Also with this i will throw in a new set of S4 rotors and pads and a complete set of radiator hoses. I also have a new thermostat that I have not installed.
PM me if you are interested.

Vehicle Description
1987 Porsche 944 Turbo 5 speed, Limited Slip Transmission,Car has power windows, power mirrors power door locks, cruise control, Electric seat adjustments, power moon roof and so on.
Interior: Cream color Leather Seating, both front seats redone in leather, Back seats are in great condition, little if any flaws. Has Porsche floormats in the front.
Exterior: Charcoal in color, paint is decent.
Its gun metal gray, Tan interior, no rips in seats, the dash is cracked on top but not too bad. 107K miles. 40 K on last clutch job. I have something like 14G in receipts from around 2002. This car sat from 2002-2005 or until about 6 months ago when I bought it, so all that work is practically new. I have almost all the receipts and I am the 3rd owner.
It has S4 brakes and coil overs on the front. I am not sure if this was a factory option.
What is missing or what it need is below.
Missing front splitter.
AC is not working right now, but I think it has a bad shrader valve. It was working when I bought it, but the compressor clutch coil burned out. Just replaced the clutch coil with a brand new part, and charge it but it leaked out. It was holding some pressure before I charged it.
I also replaced the TPS with a new unit.
The high speed fan seems to come on at the wrong times and is a bit erratic, but I have a new thermo switch. Runs cool on the highway, but heats up quick at idle in the heat. I think it is the thermostat, and I have a new one. It also cools off on just a few seconds when driving.
Uses some oil, but the plugs are clean. I am 100% certain this is oil seepage past the turbo seals.
Very very seldom, I mean once in a blue moon after driving it hard , I will get a puff of smoke, but this does not happen when it sits overnight, like a leaking valve seal. I am certain this is the turbo exhaust seal. The plugs are clean.
Runs very strong, but does break up slightly under high boost, high rpm. Probably the wires, cap and rotor.
One of the crank position sensor connector boots is broken, but it runs fine.
There are a few imperfections on the hood and the rest of the paint on the rear is thin but looks decent. Its not perfect but it looks good with a good wax job.
The sunroof does not leak.
Cruise control does not work.
The CV joints click from time to time, but it always goes away quick so i dont worry about it. Sometimes it goes for a week or two, clicks, then goes away in about a mile or so. Probably need to be repacked.
Other than the above this car is solid and straight and runs very strong. All of those problems should be an easy fix.
Again a very strong runner and I have been driving it every day with no problems. You can drive this car anywhere.
Below is a list of work that was done to it around 2002-2005 that i have receipts for.
