The Porsche 968 is a sports car produced by Porsche from 1992 to 1995. It was the final evolution of Porsche's front-engine, rear-wheel-drive four-cylinder sports cars, which started with the 924 in 1976. The 968 was positioned as a replacement for the 944, and it featured a number of improvements over its predecessor.
The Porsche 968 was powered by a 3.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine that produced 236 horsepower and 225 lb-ft of torque. The engine was mounted at the front of the car and drove the rear wheels through either a six-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. The 968 was also available in a convertible (Cabriolet) and a sporty coupe (Club Sport) version.
The Porsche 968 featured a number of technical advancements that helped it stand out in the sports car market. For example, it had a rear transaxle that helped to distribute weight evenly between the front and rear of the car. It also had a four-link rear suspension system that provided excellent handling and ride comfort.
Other features of the Porsche 968 included anti-lock brakes, air conditioning, power windows, and a high-quality sound system. It also had a comfortable and well-appointed interior that made it suitable for daily driving as well as high-performance driving.
The Porsche 968 has always been a well-received sports car that offered a balance of performance, comfort, and style. It is still considered a classic by Porsche enthusiasts, and it remains a sought-after collector's car today.
Maintaining Your Porsche 968
If you are lucky enough to own a Porsche 968, there are several tips to keep in mind for maintaining your vehicle in top condition:
- Regular oil changes: The 968 engine requires regular oil changes to maintain its performance and longevity. It is recommended to change the oil every 5,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first.
- Timing belt replacement: The timing belt on the 968 should be replaced every 60,000 miles or six years, whichever comes first. A worn or broken timing belt can cause severe engine damage, so it's important to stay on top of this maintenance item.

Brake pads should be checked every 10,000 miles or so, and replaced as needed. The brake fluid should be changed every two years to prevent moisture buildup in the system.

The shocks and struts should be inspected every 50,000 miles, and replaced if they are worn or leaking. The control arm bushings should be inspected every 30,000 miles and replaced if they are cracked or worn out.
- Cooling system maintenance: The 968's cooling system is important for engine performance and longevity. The coolant should be changed every two years to prevent corrosion and buildup of deposits. The radiator hoses should be inspected regularly and replaced if they are cracked or worn out.
- Electrical system maintenance: The 968's electrical system includes the battery, alternator, and various sensors. The battery should be replaced every 3 to 5 years, and the alternator should be inspected every 60,000 miles and replaced if necessary. The sensors should be inspected and replaced as needed.
