Sell My Porsche

The Porsches we buy

Every Porsche on this list is a vehicle we actively buy in the Valley — running, with a working key, in almost any condition. Pick your model for the details, or use the offer form for any Porsche:

• Porsche 911 · Porsche Boxster · Porsche Cayenne
• Porsche Cayman · Porsche Macan · Porsche Panamera
• Porsche Taycan

High mileage and honest wear are normal for this brand, and both are priced into our offers from the start. We buy across Fresno, Clovis, Madera, and Sanger, pay at pickup, and handle the smog and DMV paperwork after the purchase — you just sign and hand over the keys.

Porsche problems we still buy

Every Porsche develops its known issues with age, and Porsche owners hear the same line from private buyers: fix it first, then we’ll talk. We price the problem in instead. These are the ones we see most across the Porsche lineup:

• IMS bearing failure (996 and early 997)
• Cylinder bore scoring
• Air-cooled oil leaks and top-end wear
• Cooling system and coolant pipes
• IMS bearing failure (986 and early 987)
• Bore scoring on S engines
• Air-oil separator failure
• Convertible top and rear window wear

Problems like these change the price, not the answer — as long as the Porsche starts, drives, and has a working key, we want to make an offer.

IMS bearing failure (996 and early 997). The intermediate shaft bearing on 1999-2008 water-cooled cars can fail with little warning and destroy the engine. Many cars have a documented retrofit bearing; without paperwork, buyers assume the risk is still there, and owners often sell rather than gamble on an engine.

Cylinder bore scoring. Some 996 and 997 engines, especially the larger 3.8L versions, develop scored cylinder bores that cause oil consumption, ticking, and piston slap. A borescope is the only real check, and a rebuild is a five-figure job, so owners frequently sell instead of opening the motor.
