This is a gorgeous, high quality 1959 Porsche Speedster Replica with only 659 original miles. Made by Vintage Speedsters in Southern California, this is a highly convincing replica with a gorgeous color combination. This car has been garaged and rarely used, gently driven and very well cared for. It has the optimal 1915 CC motor with dual carburetors and freeway flyer four speed transmission. See the pictures of the motor. This is an excellent example of a well cared for Porsche. This is exceptionally clean with an amazing paint job (no dings or dents) in silver/blue with red leather interior. Note the blue tone of the paint (it’s not silver). The car has a finished deck and trunk, nicely fitted cocoa matts and doors. The black canvass top easily snaps on/off and is in perfect condition; it fits perfectly with all of the snaps and fasteners accurately placed on both car and canvas. The seats are nicely finished in red leather. All accessories are in working order. Side windows are included. The car is titled as a 1959 Volkswagon and is located in El Dorado Hills, California. This is a high quality and well-built Speedster that turns heads and is an excellent opportunity to own a replica of a legendary Porsche 356 at a fraction of factory cost. It’s a great driver and runs very well. It’s never been smoked in. The car also has painted bumpers, turn signals, cat-eye rear brake lights, chrome body mouldings, chrome hub caps, Stuttgarter Karosseriewerk Reutter & Co Fender Tag. This is a 49 state vehicle and can not be sold to residents of California. Please email me through Ebay should you have any questions. |

Leno steals Porsche 918 from The Quail for latest Garage episode
Sat, 31 Aug 2013Just because he's a famous celebrity doesn't mean Jay Leno got to take it easy at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance earlier this month. Having already spent some time with the gorgeous Cadillac Elmiraj Concept and Ed Welburn for a recent episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the late night talk show host also got to put a few miles on a prototype version of the Porsche 918 Spyder.
Like a usual episode of JLG, Leno first goes over the details of the car with Frank Walliser, head of the 918 Spyder's development, before taking it out for spin. Check out the full episode, which is posted below, to hear what Walliser has to say about the car. More importantly, though, crank up your computer's volume and let the car's high-revving engine and amazing exhaust note do plenty of talking for itself.
Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines
Wed, 19 Mar 2014About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.
2014 Porsche 911 Targa
Tue, 15 Apr 2014I've watched the electro-hydraulic roof panel open and close about 73 times in the past hour, but its fascinatingly complicated operation still has me mesmerized. I've concluded that only a German automaker - Porsche, to be more specific - would go through the trouble of engineering a roof system that essentially lifts the entire greenhouse off a vehicle, rearranges its components like a sliding-tile puzzle, and then reassembles all of them seamlessly (sans roof panel) to accurately recreate one of its most famed bodystyles.
The 2014 Porsche 911 Targa is a near-perfect modern interpretation of the automaker's 1965 911 Targa, a semi-convertible bodystyle that represents nearly 13 percent of all 911 models sold since production started 50 years ago. While the early car's roof was purely manual in operation - that's the period-correct way of saying that the driver did all of the muscle work - today's Targa is a completely automated transformation that requires only that the driver hold down a cabin-mounted switch for a mere 19 seconds to let the captivating show run its course.
After studying the Targa's elaborate roof operation at its launch at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year, I was sufficiently intrigued. To that end, I traveled one-third of the way around the planet to southern Italy, hoping that the Mediterranean climate would reveal a bit more about the reintroduction of the automaker's iconic sports car.
