1957 Classic Vintage Speedster on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
Bought this car for my wife's birthday five years ago and it has been garaged and gently used. Too many cars and not enough time so something had to go. I bought the car from the Volo Auto Museum in Volo Illinois with 225 miles on it in July 2009. They report it was built by Vintage Speedster (vintagespeedsters.com) in 2008.
I had it sorted last year by a local VW specialist and it runs and drives great. We have taken it for short drives on nice sunny days and have thoroughly enjoyed the car. I do not have to sell the car and will not give it away, but if you really want a nice Speedster replica that hasn't been abused or tinkered with this could be your car. Payments Required $1,000 deposit within 24 hours of auction close. Final payment in cash of after the funds clear my bank. You may pick the car up at my home or I will be glad to ship via your carrier at your expense. All paperwork and payment must be complete prior to delivery. All sales final as is where is and there is no warranty. Please inspect the car or have the car inspected prior to bidding. All sales are final. |

Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."

Evo sets up duel of Porsche 911s
Thu, 20 Mar 2014What's better, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive? That question has occupied auto enthusiasts for years, and so far, we've not really had a solid answer one way or the other. Evo has opted to take another whack at this tough question by pairing a pair of Porsche 911s against each other for a track battle.
In one corner, we have the two-wheel-drive 911 Carrera S, complete with the lickity-split PDK transmission, a sports suspension and carbon-ceramic brakes. In the other corner, it's the all-wheel-drive 911 Carrera 4S in a much mellower spec, with a seven-speed manual, as well as standard brakes and suspension. While the results seem like they'd be a foregone conclusion, some very British weather is there to act as the great equalizer.
We've got the full video down below. Have a look, and let us know if you agree with Evo's results.
