1965 Porsche 912 No Reserve Early 3 Gauge Painted Dash California Survivor (911) on 2040-cars
Daytona Beach, Florida, United States
|
1965 Porsche 912 Very Rare and Desirable 3 Gauge Painted Dash 912! This 912 was undergoing restoration when the previous owner passed away. It needs very little sorting/finishing to be a strong driver. I have personally driven this 912 for a couple hundred miles since late January. I first showed the 912 at the Rolex 24 Hour in Daytona Beach. Even though I didn't have a Porsche Club reserved parking pass, the PCA Club waived me into their reserved parking area and made room for the 912 among other notable classics. I was absolutely flattered by the attention the 912 received and the amount of questions I had about the 912. This is definitely a 912 that gets a lot of attention and respect! This car is the bridge between the 356 and 911 with the 356 engine and painted dash styling and 911 Chassis. Values continue to rise across the 912 spectrum; however, very few painted dash cars were built (likely less than 1,500 total) and remain today. Resprayed in the Desirable Original Ruby Red Color. The windows and rubbers were removed during the respray. I would rate the paint quality as sufficient for a driver or local show. It polishes up very nicely but is not concours level. The 912 was recently serviced by Kennedy Porsche in Daytona. The Original Solex Carbs (included in sale) need rebuilding so they were replaced with new Webers. At the same time, a new distributor was installed. The 912 runs very strong at this point. Engine starts right up, Transmission Shifts Smoothly, Drives Straight and Brakes firmly and straight! Please watch the video. I apologize for the quality. My GoPro is having issues so I had to use my iPhone. (you will note in the video I added the exhaust tail pipe since the pics were taken.) This California 912 appears to have its Original Floor Pan! The Pan is solid and free of any significant rust issues. The only issues I noticed was there may be some filler in the rocker panels and there's a small patch on the front pan. However, all things considered, this is about as solid a driver level 912 as you could hope to find. All Original Dated Coded Rims, plus Spare Tire and Jack are Present! Headlight and Taillights work! The Original Radio is Present although Disconnected. Glass is all in great condition and the chrome and stainless trim present well! The Interior is in nice condition and needs very little finishing. The dash mat was replaced but needs securing. The rear seats are serviceable and appear original. The front seats appear to have been recovered and are in nice condition. The seat back adjustment mechanisms will need attention as they don't always lock the seat back in place. Also, there are no seat belts included. All things considered this is an excellent driver level 912 that not only is very original but can be enjoyed from day 1 and improved as time permits. With the increasing value of 912s, this is a great investment and the best of the 912s as it is a very early 3 Gauge, Painted Dash car! **I reserve the right to end auction early. 912 is advertised elsewhere.** **If you are serious about buying, bid early and let me know you're a serious buyer** WE HAVE OTHER CLASSIC MERCEDES AND PORSCHE AVAILABLE!

Porsche 918 Spyder already almost sold out?
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Still planning on getting your hands on a Porsche 918 Spyder? You'd better act quickly, because word has it that the hybrid hypercar is nearly sold out.
While Porsche has reportedly only delivered a little over 30 of the 918 examples of the Spyder it plans to manufacture in total, Automotive News says that production is sold out through late March or early April - just a few months shy of when production is set to wrap in July.
That's pretty impressive for a car with a base price of almost $850,000, especially one requiring a $200,000 deposit just to get your name on the list. Still, that sum is significantly less than its competitors get for the McLaren P1 or LaFerrari, both of which sell for over a million (if you can actually get on one at that price), though in fairness, production of each is limited to less than half of the 918 Spyder.
2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]
Thu, 22 May 2014You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.
The 2014 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S brings 50 extra ponies to Detroit
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Porsche has announced a new version of its popular SUV today at the Detroit Auto Show: the 550-horsepower 2014 Cayenne Turbo S.
This newly minted "flagship" of the Cayenne lineup is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.8-liter V8 engine, and offers 50 hp more than the Cayenne Turbo. Performance figures are impressive for the sleek utility vehicle: 0-60 miles per hour can be dashed off in 4.3 seconds, while maximum speed is rated at 175 mph. The Turbo S also gets dynamic chassis control, torque vectoring and Porsche's Sport Chrono package - all standard equipment.
Visually the Cayenne Turbo S differentiates itself from the lesser models in pretty subtle ways. Gloss black trim decorates the gawping front air intakes, as well as rear-view mirror trim panel. The SUV also wears 21-inch Turbo II wheels, a la the 911 Turbo.
