2007 Porsche 911 Carrera S on 2040-cars
Creedmoor, North Carolina, United States
Car has been garage kept every day of its life by prior owner and me The original owner custom ordered this car in rare midnight blue metallic and took European delivery. I have every maintenance record in this car’s history from both the prior owner’s and my ownership history (surprisingly most examples out there won’t have this back to day 1). Additionally, I have the original purchase sticker ($92,455) and euro delivery paperwork. In addition to normal maintenance, in November of 2014, I spent a little over $2,500 on proactive replacement of the water pump, thermostat, serpentine belt and spark plugs along with a brake fluid and coolant flush and additionally had the lower oil pan dropped and inspected for any metallic debris (it was clean). I am a firm believer in staying ahead of maintenance on a car like this and all of this was done purely as a proactive measure due to age rather than waiting for stated mileage thresholds or anything demonstrating failure. My mechanic described my car to me as having 5 years of runway before any significant maintenance items will be necessary again – just oil changes in the interim.

Porsche continues facelift spree with 911 Turbo
Fri, 24 Jan 2014If there's ever been automotive case for constant evolution, it is the Porsche 911. It seems like every time a new version of the rear-engined sports car debuts, Porsche is already hard at work on a facelifted version of it that changes some subtle, barely noticeable aspect.
Such is the case with this round of images of a facelifted 911 Turbo, which was seen undergoing winter testing alongside the facelifted, hardtop-version of the 911 Cabriolet we showed you yesterday. The new, 991-based 911 Turbo was just unveiled in May of 2013.
Like the Cabrio from yesterday, both the Turbo and naturally aspirated models shown here feature additional slats at the rear of the car, right behind the rear wheels. These slats on the standard model lend credence to what we learned yesterday - that even the regular 911 models could end up getting turbocharged mills.
Leno buys classic Porsche 356 Carrera 2, seeks out and finds perfect expert for help
Mon, 19 Aug 2013The world of collector cars is fairly tight-knit when you get down to individual models. Need proof? Just take a look at this latest video from Jay Leno's Garage. The subject is a gorgeous 1963 Porsche 356 Carrera 2. Jay, being known as quite a collector, got a call from someone looking to sell. While doing his due diligence and looking for a 356 expert to go over the car with him, he came across John Willhoit.
Where the story gets weird is when Leno is asked the license plate number - it turns out that Willhoit, owner of Willhoit Restorations, had restored the exact same car more than 30 years prior. He then sold it to the same person that was looking to give it to Leno. What follows is a truly interesting video on the little quirks of the 356, along with Willhoit's personal history on a car he hadn't seen since 1976.
This is a bit more mechanically detailed than Leno's normal videos, but it's on a very interesting subject. Take a look below for the entire film.

Porsche is celebrating the 40th anniversary of its 911 Turbo in the best possible way: by announcing the next-generation of the rear-engined beast. The 2014 Porsche 911 Turbo and Turbo S are here, and man oh man, do they seem like the business.
