West Coast Classics are proud to present an absolutely exceptional
example of this 1994 Porsche 968 3.0L 6 speed manual 2 Door
Cabriolet with only 54K original miles! The 968 was a much more
refined and desirable incarnation from the earlier 944 with more
power and refinement and which would prove to be a very collectible
Porsche for the enthusiast to add to their collection not only due
to its distinctive looks and being the last in the line, but also
most importantly due to its very low production and consequent
rarity!Built between 1992-95 with fewer than 651 Cabriolets in
total built for the US market in 1994 alone, and with way fewer
having the desirable G44 6 speed manual transmission, this is one
very rare model! Production was virtually evenly divided between
Coupes and Cabriolets. These were extraordinarily expensive cars
when new ($55,530 list), in fact more money than the same year 1994
911 RS America Coupe ($55,525 list), and which would actually sell
for way over sticker due to their rarity.The 968 is blessed with
predictable handling thanks to the nearly 50-50 weight distribution
that results from its front engine/rear axle design and it is
therefore not difficult to drive fast! The 240HP DOHC four
delivered the most torque of any aspirated four of its day with
seamless power delivery that will impress any sports car enthusiast
whilst remaining relatively economical with an EPA rating of 26 MPG
on highways.All the expected modern features are present including
dual front air bags, ABS and four piston calipers on all four disc
brakes. The car also boasts a fully galvanized steel body from the
factory and the 944S2 engine was fully refined with significantly
lighter forged pistons and rods and with the doing away of the
crankshafts heavy torsional rotation damper, improving considerably
the engines responsiveness with Porsche's new Variocam technology.
It compares well in every way to its modern day car competition
whilst boasting an enduringly classic Porsche look and badge!This
particular example is finished in this striking and classic color
combination of original factory upgraded 'Midnight Blue Metallic'
factory color paint (1 of only 103 in this color) and with its
original 'Classic Gray' partial Leather interior and purchased with
factory options including;M44 3.0L engineG44 6 speed manual
