Up for sale is my restored California 1967 Porsche 912 This car is in excellent condition with original interior. I have 3 classics from the 60’s and sadly have to sell one of them to help fund a real estate venture. Details: I purchased this car a year ago when it had a bit under 121, 200 miles – have put a bit over 2,600 miles on it since – it is a blast to drive. The previous owner:
Since purchasing the car, I have:
Those are the highlights. I have all receipts for my work and the previous owner’s work. I have been told that the engine and body are matching numbers. Car was also re-painted Polo Red a few years ago – correctly with all glass pulled out - and shows very well with even shine. Car has all new window and door seals. The body has no rust and is straight. Interior is the original and for it’s age in excellent shape – has signs of wear, but no tear or cracks anywhere – a nice patina. Car was garage kept for over 30 years before I bought it and I continue to garage it. In short, this is a fantastic example of a 1967 Porsche 912. It drives firm, fires up from cold every time, and with the little extra CC, has a nice engine growl and extra pop in the pedal. Have driven it mostly on the weekends, around town or up the coast and it works great as a city or vacation car. I am sad to give it up, but of my three classics, this is the least rare. I hope it finds a good home with an owner who will continue to care for and enjoy it. I was even able to find an original ad from the original dealer here in SoCal – it’s framed and comes with the sale. This car comes with a reasonable reserve for a car in its condition. I’m located in Los Angeles if you want to come by and look at the car. E-mail me at litzewen@gmail.com if you have any questions. I will be advertising this car through other sources so I reserve the right to end the auction if someone makes me an acceptable offer. Thank you and good luck! |

Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In 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.
A few pre-race notes and a lot of photos from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sat, 14 Jun 2014The 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.
eBay Find of the Day: 1981 Porsche 928 convertible by Carelli
Wed, 30 Apr 2014The Porsche 928 was perhaps the consummate European GT of its day. With a powerful front-mounted V8 engine that grew in displacement as the model years went on, it was capable of eating up the miles at triple-digit speeds in great comfort for occupants. It was also an unusual beauty, with its sharp front and curved rear featuring innovative integrated bumpers.
Currently for auction on eBay Motors is one of the rarest 928s you're likely to find, in a handsome combination of Guards Red paint and tan leather interior, though we wouldn't mind a less-showy finish to the factory wheels. According to the seller, this car is one of eight 928 convertibles by Carelli Design, a firm that's still in business.
The auction claims that these cars were made in 1981 as a feasibility study between Carelli and Porsche for a possible production 928 convertible. The seller says he worked at the dealership where the car is said to have been originally sold $103,000. To remove the roof and hide the convertible top, there were significant changes made to the body and interior, including redesigned doors and a completely new trunk. As you can see in the gallery, when down, the top is completely hidden in a very factory-like fashion. When up, it looks slightly awkward, though (and we'd really like to see a rear three-quarter view to check out the blind spots).
