Equipment
4593/887hp, Acid Green calipers, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires , magnesium wheels, carbon mirrors.
Condition
Number 891 of 918 built. Represented with 1405 miles. Paint-to-sample Acid Green. It’s an attention-grabbing car in even more attention-grabbing colors and has low but not excessively low miles. The only concern is that the CARFAX reports a minor collision in 2022 that cost $9,365.37 to repair. That could have just been one of the mirrors for all we know, but it’s still a blemish to this car’s history.
Market commentary
Despite that blemish, it sold for a strong price. The whole, complicated, hybrid electric system is designed for only limited use boosting the 608hp V-8 to a total of 887hp drive to all four wheels (mostly to the rear). The battery capacity is very limited and the 918 will travel only 12 miles (according to the authorities at the U.S. EPA) on electric power alone. A rolling technical proving ground for future Porsche hybrid powertrains with early adopters as the guinea pigs to discover its limitations and flaws. This result is boosted by the eye-searing Acid Green paint-to-sample color that has become a Porsche hallmark.
