General description :
A fine 1992 Porsche 968 is now available. The 968 is the successor and further development to the 944. In contrast to the 944, the 968 was produced in the Zuffenhausen Porsche factory. The 968 had only a limited run of 12,766, compared to the 60,000 911’s produced that year. The 968 is justifiably a rare Porsche. This 968 is the Tiptronic, Variocam, and 3.0 engine version, incorporating the latest developments of the time. The car is unrestored and in good condition. The bodywork and panel fittings are good and the paintwork is neat. The original underbody is rust-free. It has a navy-blue finish with black leather trim. It has factory-fitted sunroof, climate control, electric windows, airbags, power steering, ABS and central locking amongst other items. This Porsche has been given a number of additional upgrades such as: a 993 steering wheel incorporating the Tiptronic buttons, leather ‘Turbo’ seats, yellow Koni shock breakers all around, lowered original 968 CS springs, Porsche 996 rims, American issue Billy Boat exhaust system and a Promax performance chip. This is a fine Porsche, attractively priced. Gallery Aaldering is Europe’s leading Classic Cars specialist since 1975!

The Porsche 968 was the final evolution of the Porsche 944, and it was produced from 1992 to 1995. Some critics have argued that the 968 was "too little, too late" in terms of Porsche's efforts to compete with other sports cars of the era.
One of the main criticisms of the Porsche 968 was its high price tag, which made it less competitive against other sports cars such as the Mazda RX-7, Nissan 300ZX, and Chevrolet Corvette. Additionally, the 968 was introduced at a time when the sports car market was declining, due to economic recession and changing consumer preferences.
Despite these challenges, the Porsche 968 was well-received by critics and enthusiasts, who praised its performance, handling, and build quality. The 968 featured a range of advanced technologies, such as a VarioCam variable valve timing system and a 6-speed manual transmission.
