this is your chance to get a nice, solid 914 for cheap if you are willing to do a little work, this car is being re-listed because of a buyer who bid it up higher than it was worth and has now decided not to pay for it. The car has a 2.0 liter engine with 36 mm exhaust and 42 mm intake valves, it last ran about a year ago and has about 200 miles on it. The motor also has a hydraulic cam and lifters, and 40 mm Brosol carbs with electric chokes, the engine had a 009 distributor but now has a stock one which needs to be timed and wired. The fuel pump is new and needs to be wired. The starter is new.


The transmission is a late model side shift type, it shifts nicely sitting there but I have never had it in a running car so can't say for sure it is good, I do have an extra transmission I will include if need be. The front brakes have been rebuilt and the master cylinder is a new 911 type, the rear brakes need to be reassembled and installed. The parking brake handle is from a late model car. The tires are all good but are not matched or balanced. The rear shocks are gas KYBs, all the wheel bearings and other suspension/steering  parts are good and the tie rod ends are new. The electrics work for the most part though the turn signal and ignition switches need attention and the electric part of the ignition switch needs to be replaced. The radio is junk and there are no speakers. The right tail light has some sun cracks.

The carpet is new, the weatherstrips and seals are all good except for the front trunk bulkhead seal and the front targa seal are not perfect. The seats and rear bolster have some flaws but are usable. The paint has some runs on both sides, the runs on the driver's side are not too bad and should color sand and buff out, the ones on the passenger side front and rear fenders may need to be re-shot. The body is solid with no rust in the trunks, doors, floorpans, sail panels, rockers or engine compartment. This car has not been on the road in over a decade, and I have owned it for the last seven years. the passenger seat has been upgraded to the movable late model type. 

The motor has a different exhaust system on it than is shown in the out-of-car photo, the stock exchangers are in excellent condition and the muffler and collector is new. the doors are the late model type with better regulators and safety beams. I have a car trailer I can loan to move the car. Please do not bid on this car if you don't want to buy it or if you don't have the money to pay for it, thanks for looking!

China bans military license plates on luxury autos

Wed, 01 May 2013

Driving a vehicle with a military license plate in China provides many privileges. Legally reserved for official vehicles only, the designation apparently allows drivers to enjoy special liberties on the roads, including breaking traffic laws, filling up with free fuel and receiving light-and-siren escorts through congested cities. So attractive are the benefits that there is a secondary market for used legal and counterfeit plates - especially among those wealthy enough to afford luxury cars. But all of that is reportedly coming to an end, as President Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission, is on a mission to fight corruption in his country.
A new license plate system goes into effect today, and it is designed to "maintain social harmony, stability and the reputation of the military," says the PLA Daily, the armed forces' official newspaper. While the abuse has been going on for many years, the internet has put the spotlight on the bad behavior, and the negative press does not represent the morals and true colors of the armed forces, say officials.
While military-plated Porsche drivers have been singled out as offenders, Bloomberg notes that all vehicles with engine displacements above 3.0 liters and with a sticker price in excess of about $73,000, will be banned from receiving military plates. This includes vehicles from Audi, Cadillac, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln and the Volkswagen Phaeton. Even if drivers are savvy enough to circumvent the new issuing system, the military has put technology at toll gates to catch users of counterfeit plates. There has been no word on the punishment if caught.

Porsche (finally) unleashes full, official details on 918 Spyder

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Porsche has finally let released all of the details on the 918 Spyder, the German brand's challenger to the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari, after months of leading our poor, performance-loving hearts on. The covers were lifted at the Volkswagen Group night, an enormous precursor to the Frankfurt Motor Show, and include a massive, 11,000-word press release that's attached at the bottom of this page.
The 918 Spyder features a mid-mounted, dry-sump-lubricated, 4.6-liter V8 engine that generates 608 horsepower when left to its own devices. Combined with a trio of electric motors, which produce 286 hp, the total system horsepower for the 918 Spyder rests at 887 ponies. That's less than the McLaren P1 (903 hp) and the LaFerrari (949 hp), but the Porsche is also likely to be a bit cheaper, starting at $845,000, while the McLaren will be in the seven-figure range for certain, and it will more than likely be joined by the LaFezza.
The 918 Spyder counters with a 2.8-second jog to 62, a 7.7-second run to 124 and it will hit 186 in 22 seconds.

Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
