Rare and beautiful trim with supple leather, burr maple wood, aluminum, wood, rear wing, xenon lights, stainless steel door sils and oval exhaust pipes.. see below for the list of optional features from the certificate of authenticity i obtained from Porsche. I bought the car from a dealer in January of this year, did the 60K service (receipts available) and added a few extras like new OEM wiper blades, new wheel hub caps, new lug bolts, wind shield deflector and mesh grills. I thought i would use it a lot in the summer, but have barely put a couple of hundred miles on it as i end up riding my motorcycle instead whenever it's top-down weather, so decided to sell it. I'm asking $14K, which is what i paid the dealer with taxes and fees, that's not including $4K i spent on the 60K service etc.. The car runs well, sounds gnarly and turns heads. There is a small paint touch up the size of a quarter by the rear trunk and the brake rotors have surface rust that's just cosmetic because the previous owner didn't choose the coated ones when they were replaced last. I was going to get the coated rotors but wanted to wear out the current ones first, so never got around to it. Newer tires. Also, i don't think AC works, although i've never used it, it's a convertible after all. Private seller - save on taxes. Call 312-316-8830 with questions. i had to pay almost 10% in sales tax here in chicago because i bought from a dealer. There are some more pictures and details on the dealer's site for their original listing if you google the vin and click on the fidelity motor group listing link.
MSRP on the certificate of authenticity was $71,761 - this thing came loaded. Take a look at the pic of the label with options codes, it's seven rows long!

Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.
Porsche digitally dissects its 918 Spyder for your viewing pleasure
Wed, 02 Oct 2013At this point, you'd think we'd know all there is to know about the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder - except what it's like to drive - but Porsche has released a new video giving us a more in-depth look at its new plug-in hypercar all the same. The animated video gives us numerous cutaway looks at the 918 Spyder while giving a visual demonstration of the car's four hybrid driving modes.
Though nowhere near as exciting as watching the 918 blast around the Nürburgring in record time, this new video is nonetheless both interesting and informative. Scroll down to watch the video yourself, and be sure to check out our live gallery of the production version of the car along with a stock gallery.
Porsche has doubled US sales to women [w/videos]
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Porsche is having a good sales year in the US, with 25,129 vehicles delivered year-to-date coming off the automaker's best July sales ever. That's a 31-percent increase over the same period last year (19,253 deliveries). With year-to-date Panamera sales a surprising 36 percent lower than last year, what possibly could be driving Porsche's sales surge? If you answered Cayman and Boxster sales, you're right. But dealerships are noticing another factor: more women are coming in to buy Porsches, CNBC reports, the bulk of whom picked up new Cayenne SUVs. The German automaker's sales to women in the US have more than doubled in the past two years, increasing from 7 percent to 15 percent. This has helped year-to-date Cayenne sales reach 11,082 - 31 percent higher than the same time last year.
Porsche executives have been trying to tap into the women's market, as evidenced in part by the company's move to pick professional tennis player Maria Sharapova as a brand ambassador. Porsche maintains it has not moved to dramatically change its brand image, but it has shown a number of ads in recent years that uncharacteristically emphasize its vehicles' practicality under the "Engineered for Magic. Everyday" banner - some featuring female drivers.
Be sure to watch CNBC's video report on Porsche's female movement below - you'll also find one of the aforementioned Engineered For Magic ads as well as an interesting case study video on the campaign from ad agency Cramer-Krasselt.
