Porsche 356b on 2040-cars
Simi Valley, California, United States
|
1963 Porsche 356B, matching numbers, runs, drives, and stops great. Bought from a guy that lived in Arizona and owned it 40 years, he restored it in 1974, painted it blue and put a blue interior in it, he told me the engine was a basket case and he rebuilt it with oem parts, at that time there was 28000 miles on speedo, so theres about 5k on motor, and the way it runs, drives, and sounds it makes sense. Have no proof of orginal mileage, could be 33k or 133k. i bought the car to fully restore, but with kid in college out of state, just dont have the funds. When i bought the car i ordered a C.O.A. from porsche, so it confirms the numbers matching. Car should be ivory/ 6204 white which is the color of dash, interior should be brown leather/H. eng # 609731, trans # 59700 (741/2A). car vin# is 212230. All lights, running lights, turn signal, horn tac, speedo work, the clock is not working, and the orginal blapunkt radio lights up when turned on but have no speakers so cant confirm its operational. The floors have been fiberglassed, on visual theres only a couple of spots that had small rust , nothing on vertical or longitude areas. so replacement floor panels will be easy fix. Body on car is straight, no dents, all body lines are straight and very nice. the paint is over 40 years old, and looks better in pics than it is. No carpet in car, does have orginal rubber mats. Mechanically the car is a great driver, will be an easy restoration project. please call bob with questions, 805 4056972

'Latest production version' of Porsche 918 shown off on Twitter
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Porsche posted a picture of what it is calling "the latest production version" of the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder on Twitter. It looks like the gasoline-hybrid supercar is being driven sportively on some California back roads during Monterey Speed Week.
Whatever updates were made to this version aren't visual (except for the paint), as the one Chris Harris drove last spring and another seen hot-weather testing in Nevada both had production bodies. We presume the changes are relatively minor and more than skin deep - perhaps brake calibration, suspension tuning or tweaks to the powertrain - but Porsche didn't release any more information.
The 918 Spyder is Porsche's latest supercar, which will compete with the LaFerrari and the McLaren P1 hybrid supercars. The Porsche may be the underdog of the group when considering horsepower, acceleration, top speed and price, but the 887-horsepower brute has the most advanced hybrid drivetrain of the three.
2014 Porsche Panamera 4S Executive
Fri, 09 Aug 2013If the idea of a Porsche sedan (or, long hatchback) is still off-putting to you, then you might want to look away now. For 2014, the polarizing Panamera has received a midcycle refresh bringing slightly different styling, as well as adding two new models to the lineup, the S E-Hybrid and the stretched-wheelbase Executive. Having focused most of my recent trip to Germany on a First Drive of the intriguing plug-in Panamera, I also got to spend some time with the roomier Executive model.
Offered in both 4S and Turbo guise, the Panamera Executive has been stretched by almost six inches for the sole purpose of improving rear passenger space. Although it's hard to imagine anyone would willingly buy a Porsche and opt to sit in the back seat, I'd have to say that if I'm going to be chauffeured around in a car, why not make it a Porsche? For the most part, though, I'm guessing that many Panamera Executive sedans will be owned by people who want to one-up their buddy driving a stretched BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
Driving Notes:
Evo pits BMW M3 against Porsche Macan in drag battle
Sun, 24 Aug 2014If you want to move five passengers in very rapid fashion and you've got a $75,000 budget, two newly introduced four-door models immediately come to mind - both are the highest performing vehicles in their respective segments. But which is faster off the line, to the 60-mile-per-hour benchmark or flat-out over an even longer run? Evo took both to paved aircraft runway to find out.
In lane one we've got the all-new Porsche Macan Turbo, which boasts a twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter V6 rated at 400 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The Porsche is fitted with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, and the 4,244-pound crossover has the traction advantage of standard all-wheel drive. In lane two is the all-new BMW M3, powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six rated at 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. It is also equipped with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, but only the rear wheels of the 3,595-pound sedan are driven. Both the BMW and Porsche arrive with launch control, which helps to remove driver error off the line.
Which automaker's launch control system is better off the line? Does all-wheel-drive grip give the crossover the advantage it needs to overcome its adversary's power-to-weight advantage? Will aerodynamics factor into the results? Which would you put in your garage, and why? The video may surprise you.
