Porsche 911L


For sale is my matching number Porsche 911L which I purchased in July 2013 with the intention of restoring to original spec. I have been busy with other projects. If the car does not sell I will probably restore it at some point this year.


This is a very interesting car. As many of you may know. The L model was a one year production. In a nutshell the L was equipped with the European S specs (not available in the US) but with a 130 hp engine. This is also the last year of the short wheel base “SWB” 911.


This 911 L has a good and healthy 2.0 L engine with matching numbers to the car. Engine No. 3281498, Vin No. 11805417.


Driver side carburetor assembly serviced and repaired and the timing on the distributor adjusted, there are some normal oil leaks on the engine, nothing out of the usual on these air cooled engines. The clutch needs to be replaced and possibly the transmission needs to be serviced as well.  Change between the gears is hard and doesn't work well while downshifting, possibly pointing to a bad clutch. Brakes were sticking and the calipers serviced to allow the car to be driveable.   Suspension components are in good condition as well as the electrical system with a good working alternation and ignition.  All instruments work as well. I would suggest replacing the tires since the ones on the car are old and expired.  The interior is in very good condition and with minimum investment can be put in beautiful condition.  The headliner needs to be completely

replaced.


The body presents corrosion on both rear quarter panels, front floor panel and front fenders.  The car feels very solid while driving.  The paint needs to be completely redone. Original color Code is 6805 - Bahama Yellow.


This car is being sold as is with no warranty implied.  I have described this car as accurately as I could, and to the best of my knowledge. Buyer will be responsible for all taxes, duties and license fees in order to export the car or to register it anywhere in the world.  Do not hesitate to email if you have any further questions or need more information .

Nick Murray's problematic Porsche 911 shows the power of a viral video

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

When Nick Murray took delivery of his 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera S in June 2013, he had saved for it for the past five years. He didn't just pluck a random 911 off a dealer lot. He specially ordered his car with thousands of dollars in extras tailored just to him, and he captured all of the options on his YouTube channel. The love affair didn't last long. Eventually the channel became a place for Nick to air his growing list of grievances about his deteriorating 911. Eventually, his mix of righteous indignation and sarcasm went viral.
By late December, he had already had four warranty repairs done on the car. Things got much worse in March. The computers began resetting whenever Nick drove over large bumps. There was also an acrid, electrical smell that occasionally permeated the cabin. Murray filed for Lemon Law protection. Porsche Cars North America contacted him for the first time to fix the problem, but it didn't help.
Things culminated in April when Murray put up a new video that showed more troubles. He began arbitration with Porsche and asked for either his full purchase price back or an exact replacement. The company countered with a portion of what the car was worth, based on its mileage. Murray refused and turned to his YouTube watchers for help. He asked them to spread the word, and the video went viral with over 800,000 views as of this writing. Supporters posted it multiple times on Porsche's Facebook and Twitter sites.

Porsche Australia racing chief dies in crash

Wed, Dec 10 2014

The motor racing community in Australia was saddened today to learn of the passing of Jamey Blaikie, a longtime racing administrator and former motorsport director for Porsche in Australia. A former racing driver in his own right, Blaikie was better known for his instrumental role in starting the Porsche Carrera Cup in Australia back in 2003. He left Porsche Cars Australia just last year to pursue other interests, including running an Aston Martin entry in the GT Asia series. Blaikie was in Fiji reportedly undertaking charity work there when his rental car collided with a truck, prematurely ending his life at just 52 years old. Our condolences go out to his family, friends and the motorsport community Down Under, where he'll surely be missed.

Porsche prioritizes 200,000-unit sales target over exclusivity [w/poll]

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Would a Porsche still be a Porsche if it weren't as exclusive? That's the question which industry pundits are asking - and customers may soon as well - as the German automaker emerges from the fringe in pursuit of larger volumes.
A dozen years ago Porsche was barely selling over 50,000 units per annum. In a sales surge that has gathered pace as fast as a 911 Turbo, however, it was already hovering around the 100,000-unit mark a few years later. Last year it sold over 160,000, and has targeted 200,000 units by 2018. But it may not even take that long.
Automotive News reports that Porsche has advanced its targets to reach for 200,000 units by the end of this year or the next. The bump in sales would be driven particularly by the introduction of the new Macan, of which it aims to sell 50,000 units annually, starting next year. The Cayenne currently stands far and away as its most successful model. The 911 and Panamera have swapped second place a few times over the past five years, followed by the Boxster and Cayman.
