NO FREAKIN RESERVE!!!!!

Break out your Men Go Silk blazer with shoulder pads, your Z Cavaricci's, Capezio loafers and Ray Ban Wayfarer's and get ready to step back in time.  This all steel 911 SC Slantnose has Miami Vice written all over it. 

Steel Slantnose fenders.  Steel Turbo Quarters, Recaro Sport Seats, Possibly Ruf front bumper(I cannot find markings), Turbo Rear Bumper, Ruf gauges, Custom steering wheel, Custom wheels.  Someone spent a crapload of money on this car back in the 80's.

The engine has been out and refreshed recently.  New oil lines, New Valve cover gaskets, new oil tubes all new bolts and hardware.  All synchros are perfect and trans shifts as it should.  Motor seems to be very well put together and tight.  I own a mid 80's 911 and a 89 911 g50, this car is faster than both.  The motor has been built but I am not sure as to what degree.

Overall the car is in excellent condition.  It has a few knicks and scratches.  Front fogs are missing.  Rockers are a little scuffed and the carpets are dirty.  I will wetsand and buff the exterior and shampoo the interior prior to the end of the auction.  Please see my other auction of my 911 Targa

Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.

Another cool projection vid, this time with a Porsche 911

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Porsche has become the latest automaker to take advantage of clever projection technology. The automaker worked up a quick presentation for the 2013 911 Carrera 4S to show off a bit of "motionless driving." The display tracks the sports car from production to back-road caning and city-center cruising, displaying a variety of exterior color choices and wheel options without resorting to a two-dimensional video.
This isn't the first time we've seen an automaker use its new product as a projection screen. Subaru, Hyundai, Lamborghini and others have all done the same, and the trick never fails to be visually interesting.
As you may recall, we got to play with the 2013 911 Carrera 4S back in November and found the machine to be a better daily driver than its rear-wheel drive counterpart. You can check out the projection video below.

2015 Porsche Cayenne S

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Oh, Porsche.
Just as the dust settles over the 911 GT3's no manual gearbox kerfuffle, the Germans have gone and yanked the yummy naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V8 from the Cayenne S and replaced it with a twin-turbo 3.6-liter V6. Is nothing sacred in Porscheland?
Perhaps not... but that's not necessarily a bad thing. After all, Porsche famously once said they'd never build a diesel, but when they did, it was actually rather stellar.
