________________________________

I purchased the following items because I was told that they sometimes need to be replaced on this model and year of vehicle. A certified mechanic told me, however, that they are all in good, working condition already. These parts, worth over $300, are included in the sale:
  1. Bosch fuel pump
  2. Bosh fuel filter
  3. Timing belt
  4. Fuel pump relay
The brakes appear to be new, two of the tires are new and the other two appear to be in excellent condition with plenty of tread remaining.

If I were to retain this car, below are some items that I believe could improve it. To be sure, the car runs really well and is a joy to drive. The perfectionist in me, however, would:
  1. fix the cruise control
  2. restore the a/c system
  3. clean instrument cluster lights (this is a diy project that is common for this vehicle as some of the instrument cluster lights seem quite dim at night)
  4. adjust or replace syncros for 1st and 2nd gear (the gearbox is in great shape - holds gears without any problem and easy to find gears - just have to be sure rpm's are in a rather precise range when downshifting. I am told that this is not uncommon for this model and year of the 928).
  5. Replace seals around both doors (tried to refurb existing ones to the best of my ability, they're still in decent shape, but new ones would be great for such a beautiful car)
________________________________


This car is a blast to drive and it turns heads wherever you go. Feel free to contact me to answer any questions you might have. I am tremendously confident that the winner of this auction will not be disappointed.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting

Sat, 11 Oct 2014



"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.

2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed statue unveiled

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Each year at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, a single marque is celebrated with a large and ornate "Central Feature" sculpture, with recent automakers including Audi in 2009, Alfa Romeo in 2010, Jaguar in 2011 and Lotus last year. This year, Porsche gets the honor, and it is using the opportunity to commemorate 50 years of the 911.
The sculpture features three generations of the 911 towering over the Goodwood House. The most recent 991 911 has the lowest position, with an original 1963 car second highest and a 1973 2.7 RS at the top of the pile. Be sure to check out the sculpture for yourself in the gallery of images above.
