1957 PORSCHE 356A SPEEDSTER FACTORY BUILT BY VINTAGE SPEEDSTER, ORIGINAL OWNER WITH ONLY 21K ORIGINAL MILES. This beautiful little 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster Replica is an absolute blast to drive. Factory built by Vintage Speedsters out of California (The Number One builder of Porsche Speedster Replicas.) They are a California company that has built 90% of all of the Porsche Speedster replicas on the market and their quality is TOP FLIGHT! Vintage Speedsters uses a custom built, jig welded 2”x4” 11 gauge steel frame. This rigid new structure retains the original VW pan designed by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and integrates the largest frame possible. While the original Speedsters are certainly a rare breed, these Vintage Speedster replicas are rare in their own right with roughly only 3000 built. This one owner car was built in 2009. Even hard core Porsche enthusiasts would be easily fooled that this is not the real deal worth well over $100,000. These Vintage Speedster replicas are an amazing value and a blast to drive.  The body is in excellent condition and the paint still looks new. Body panel fit is fantastic and the doors on this car open and shut like a new Porsche. All of the chrome trim, badges, and glass look great. The black canvas convertible top is in great condition and is easy to put up or down as well as side windows that insert easily and a boot cover that give this car a very clean look when installed. The tan colored interior is a nice contrast to the black exterior and is in like new condition. All of the gauges, lights and turn signals are working correctly. A Beautiful wood steering wheel and a great sounding Sony Am/Fm/CD stereo with MP3/I-pod hook up, Kenwood amplifier and Alpine speakers add a nice touch to the interior. If needed this Speedster also has heat for those cool fall drives through the mountains. In the exceptionally clean engine compartment sits an upgraded 1915 cc, dual carb air cooled Volkswagen motor with 15 more horsepower than the stock 1600 cc motor and you can definitely feel it at the higher rpm range. The power is backed up by an upgraded 3:88 4-speed (Freeway Flyer.) transmission that shifts smoothly and takes this little roadster up to speed quickly and the front disc brakes will bring you back to a safe stop. Maintenance is affordable and any reputable auto repair shop should be able to handle the maintenance. The Undercarriage is clean and solid.

Watch this Koenigsegg CCX hit 211 mph on a runway, outpacing McLaren's P1

Tue, 03 Jun 2014

Vmax200 in in England organizes events where those who care to show up with a supercar can run them down the two-mile runway at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. Evo attended the latest event, bringing an impressively green Lamborghini Aventador to test its girth and gaping vents against other precious metals like the McLaren P1 and F1, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta and Enzo, a Porsche Carrera GT and enough 911 Turbos to start a dealership. Speaking of those Porsches, nine of the top ten slots in the top speed competition are claimed by modified 911 Turbos.
A monochrome Swede ruled them all, though, a black-and-white Koenigsegg CCX setting fire to the speed trap run after run, hitting 211 miles per hour at its quickest. It was followed by, surprise, a 911 GT2 modified by 9E that did 210 mph. You can watch the EVO video below, GT Spirit has a bigger breakdown of the day, and we've included another vid showing the tandem launch of the CCX and McLaren F1.

Sunday Drive: The future looks bright, and the present ain't bad, either

Sun, Oct 1 2017

A look at the week that just passed proves that Autoblog readers love looking into the future. Spy photos of the next Porsche 911 and a mysterious Dodge Demon prototype led the way last week as some of our most popular stories. A teaser from Subaru has our appetites whetted for the next WRX, and we're intrigued by the value proposition offered by the rear-wheel-drive Kia Stinger. Long-distance motorcycle tourers went gaga over leaked images of the next Honda Gold Wing. Such intense interest comes as no surprise considering that it's the standard by which all its competitors are judged, and it looks to be getting some serious new technology in its next iteration. And finally, we can't help tooting our own horn a bit. Autoblog just launched a brand-new Car Finder tool, which, after getting a few data points to work with, offers up a perfect list of vehicles for new-car buyers. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Porsche 911 to get digital interior — only the tach will be analog Spy Shots: What the devil is Dodge up to with this narrow-body Challenger Demon?

Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing

Thu, 09 May 2013

In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.
