1983 Porsche 944 2dr Coupe 5- Additional Info:
1983 Porsche 944 once owned by a Bill Gates offered by Gas Monkey Garage with . ! Bill Gates might be a megalomaniac billionaire robber baron today, and may or may not have been the Bill Gates that once owned this car (Bill won’t return my calls!) So while there are a number of documents included from all of the previous owners including the original owner who took what looks like European delivery and one subsequent owner named Bill Gates from California, I can’t confirm the Bill Gates from Microsoft fame was actually one of the owners of this car, but there are rumors circulating: http://www.dailyturismo.com/2016/03/bill-gates-own-1983-porsche-944.html .While this car has been maintained and driven over the years and still runs and drives well (new clutch /starter/ brakes and battery recently replaced by the previous owner), there are a few cosmetic issues with the paint and the interior (rear seat back has sun damage and there is a seat cover on the drivers seat). The doors don’t open from the outside and the steering wheel is cracked (see all pics). The exterior is in good shape with a respray of the original color showing its age now and nicks and scratches present. Interior pics reveal a fairly complete interior needing some TLC to return it back to what Ferdinand had in mind some 30 years ago!And while this car does run and drive, it should be completely serviced prior to any extended driving to ensure safety and reliability (due to our filming schedule, we can’t perform any additional work on this car for you, SOLD AS IS/WHERE IS) This 1983 Porsche 944 once owned by a Bill Gates is located in Dallas Texas and the winning bidder may have the option of taking delivery here at the shop!
