1987 Porsche 930 Coupe

Published November 4, 2014 by Rob

Let’s return to a GCFSB favorite: not just a Porsche 930, but a triple-black 930. Some 930s are beautiful machines that combine eye-catching color schemes with the fantastic pronounced curves of the classic 911 silhouette. A triple-black 930, however, is not something we might call beautiful, but it certainly can be eye catching. The 930’s nefarious reputation for being a difficult car to drive is only enhanced by the darkness its form takes on when draped in black. These have the look of a serious machine that must be taken seriously. They example here, a 1987 Porsche 930, is pretty low mileage with only 30,920 miles on the clock and located in the dry southwest enclave of Phoenix, Arizona.

1987 Volkswagen Scirocco 16V with 66k miles – REVISIT

Published October 27, 2014 by Paul

The 1987 Volkswagen Scirocco 16V we featured earlier in the month is now up for auction, still showing about the same low miles on the clock. Why sit there and sulk that Volkswagen won’t bring back the Scirocco when you could have an equally cool vintage one like this?

1987 Porsche 928S4 5-speed – Revisit

Published October 17, 2014 by Rob

The manual-transmission Grand Prix White 928S4 we featured back in September is back up for sale, this time as a reserve auction. Last time it was listed with a Buy It Now of $39,900 and failed to sell, which should give us some insight regarding where a possible reserve for this auction may lie. Bidding sits currently at $17,600 so we’ll have to see whether it can reach its reserve.

1987 BMW M6

Published October 11, 2014 by Carter

Black wheels. Do you know what they look good on? Porsche 917s, and a smattering of the 911 and 944 models that came with black and polished Fuchs. And, perhaps the “Bluesmobile”. That, as far as I can figure, is it. Don’t get me wrong, I understand one aspect of the appeal of the black wheel. The last 20 years of my life have been a constant struggle of cleaning brake dust off of brilliant silver wheels. Would it be easier to just paint them matte black and never worry about it again? Sure, it would end my Sisyphusian struggle against pad deposits on my wheels. But then, I’d stand back and look – and I’m quite sure, every time I would shake my head. No, it just doesn’t look right to me – even when they’re very expensive wheels on an otherwise stunning car:

1987 Porsche 944S

Published October 8, 2014 by Paul

Pablo from flüssig magazine is back once again to take a look at this clean, lower mileage 1987 Porsche 944S for sale in Pennsylvania.

It began with mild curiosity.

My then-future wife already knew of my close-minded, air-cooled superiority complex, but didn’t understand why I thought her 944S didn’t figure into my Porsche passion…then she took me for a ride. I was hooked. This car made me a believer; in fact, it was this very car that would inspire me to start a magazine called flüssig ten years later.

What was it about this little car that nudged, no shoved, me into the world of early water-cooled Porsches? The smoothness. This is a character trait my beloved 911 didn’t possess. In fact, that air-cooled fossil is very much like me; rough, uncouth, noisy…a little bit dangerous, a little bit friendly, but generally behaving like an oaf—a sophisticated oaf.

The S was the exact opposite. Its character mimicked that of my wife, Diane. Well mannered, svelte, elegant. Perfectly bulged hips, thin at the waist, and strong enough to shove you back when provoked. No wonder I was attracted to both.

Now, before we get too far ahead of ourselves, I want to point out the historical significance of this car.
