1988 Porsche 944 Celebration Edition
1988 Porsche 944 Celebration Edition
You are bidding on an excellent Porsche 944"Celebration Edition"AKA Special Edition, collectible grade. This car is one of only 250 produced for America (in Satin Black Metallic) to celebrate the 100,000 Porsche's to roll off theNeckarsulmproduction lines in Germany. Option code 757 shown in the rear sticker. It's the only one I'm aware of currently for sale in the US. It is the cheapest and one of the most rare Porsche's you could collect, for an entry level collector. It is way more rare than Porsche 944 Turbo which thousands were manufactured. Some Porsche enthusiast don't even know it exist ... it is not even in the Porsche museum in Germany. Low Miles!!! Original paint!!! in 90% of the car ... front bumper, nose between headlights and headlights covers were painted due of some light scratches (I scratched the front bumper) and mainly because of tons of rock chips. Some rock chips are still present in hood and fenders, which has been touched up. All original parts are still there, with original part number stickers, never wrecked, rust free body! Recommended to inspect the car or hire somebody to inspect before bidding. LOW STARTING PRICE, LOW RESERVE, HAPPY BIDDING!

This car has only had 2 owners before me, since new and it was a "barn find". Clean Title. It was sitting in a driveway on the country because previous owner didn't have time for it. I purchased the car a few years ago after it sat unused for around 5 years or more. I did all of the following preventative maintenance items shown below, bringing the car up to mechanical conditions to pass inspection. Over $3k has been spent on the car in the last 18 months, and it's running perfectly fine and ready for years of maintenance free driving as everything has been done, but the power steering fluid leak, that I haven't looked into. Tires have plenty of thread but are old. In my opinion shocks needs to be replaced.
Below are most of the key new items within the last 18 months. I have receipts for everything but the labor done by myself (I have had Porches for 25 years and I currently own some others);
water pump and new coolant
