Because nothing is absolutely perfect….
The interior is a 9.5! Even the driver seat has zero wear and that includes the infamous side bolster and piping. In addition, the carpet, door panels, headliner, the entire dash, as well as the gauges, knobs and all other surfaces are all like new with no fading or wear. It’s amazing! You may never see a nicer interior in a 34-year old Porsche.
The exterior is a 9.5! The 956 Zinc/Pewter metallic exterior of my 911 is flat out gorgeous! Every body panel is absolutely laser straight (there is one small/barely noticeable door ding on the passenger door) and all door and hood gaps are perfectly consistent. If one looks really hard (up close), the only flaws are a couple of very minor chips on the door’s edge and a few microchips on the front spoiler. Also, if the left rear Fuchs wheel is positioned a certain way, upon close scrutiny you will see some very light curb rash in a small area on the wheel’s outer edge. The blackout trim around all the windows is like new as are all the rubber door and trunk seals throughout. In addition, even the felt liner that seals the outside of the factory electric sunroof still looks new and has no discoloration. The overall exterior condition of this vintage 911 is simply astounding! Please note: My 911 has NOT been recently detailed for a temporary “show look” with shiny tires and “renewed” faded rubber trim/bumper pieces. It looks superb “AS IS.”
The mechanicals are a 9.5! It runs, drives, shifts and brakes like new! Zero smoke and no known oil leaks! To the best of my knowledge, my 911 SC needs absolutely nothing mechanically as of this point in time. It literally feels like it is a brand new car! Everything works properly including the lights, blinkers, windows, electric sunroof, and the A/C. Even the clock keeps perfect time! Turn the key and drive it cross country tomorrow. That’s the type of car it is… It is an absolute delight to drive. In addition, please note that this Porsche still sits at its original factory ride height – it has never been “lowered.” No silly whale’s tail, chin spoiler or gravel guards. Just simple, lightweight, quick and nimble…. The way the Porsche factory intended it to be.

Porsche offering short-term loans to Macan waitlisters
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Walk into a Porsche dealer today, place an order for a Macan and you'll be looking at a waiting period of six months or more before you can expect delivery. That may be common enough for high-end European automakers, but the Macan is meant to lure new buyers to the brand, and the waitlist could be enough to deter them from sticking around.
The solution? Offer to lease them a Boxster or Cayman until their new Macan arrives. Shorter in term that the usual new-car lease, these six-month terms are designed to keep buyers from turning their backs, all the while experiencing the kind of vehicle Porsche does best.
Of course it doesn't hurt that the dealer then gets a used sports car to sell again once the short-term lease is up. And we wouldn't be surprised to see some buyers asking to hold on to their mid-engined sports car for a little longer, either.
Porsche Panamera Turbo S vs Ariel Atom Supercharged in unlikely drag battle
Thu, 01 May 2014David versus Goliath battles are always an enticing proposition, because they offer the chance to watch scrappy underdogs take on their bigger rivals. Evo has set up just such a battle with its latest drag race between the minimalist Ariel Atom 3.5 Supercharged (Ariel Atom 3 pictured below) and the plush Porsche Panamera Turbo S.
The two cars couldn't be more different. The Atom personifies Lotus founder Colin Chapman's well-known axiom: "Simplify, then add lightness." Most of the car doesn't even have a body; it's just an exposed frame with a 310 horsepower supercharged Honda four-cylinder mounted behind the driver. On the other side, there's the Panamera Turbo S. In the latest version, it packs 570 hp and 553 pound-feet from its 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 and it features all-wheel drive. Of course, all of that comes with a significant weight penalty.
Off the line, the differences are even more apparent. The Atom doesn't have any of the Porsche's technological wizardry, so launching it challenges the driver to build the revs and let out the clutch just right. The car screams like a banshee as it goes, though. The Porsche is the exact opposite. Its launch control system lets the driver hold down the brake, get on the throttle and accelerate away in just the right way.
MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal.
