I am selling my 911 S as I would like a change. I have owned this car since 2004 (I have the title in my name), in that time I have put 7,000 miles on it. I have used it for short weekend drives mainly but also the odd 100 miles plus journey. I have always had the car serviced by a Porsche specialist and perhaps spent $6,000 or so on the car since I have had it; on things like new brakes, new windscreen, shift linkage bushings, etc. The car is in my opinion a very nice driving car. I am not a mechanic, expert or dealer so from my limited expertise I would say the car is very nice. The pictures included are all taken in the last few days or weeks. It presents very well and drives well. The underneath shots show the ziebart rust proofing treatment the car had from when it was first bought years ago. To my eye there is no obvious rust of any type other than where an exposed under section like a sway-bar or a shielding has surface rust. The car has all the bills and records from literally its first repair/service, it also has the service booklet, I have all the original keys, owner's manual and sleeve. Also there is the COA from a previous owner (original engine #6331271 is in the car - someone just asked me and I checked). The seats are Recaro (have the original warranty) for those too. The thing that this car has that will be a plus or minus depending on what you want it is the modification to the engine. It is supercharged. The car is very fast. I have the bill and the pictures of the engine when built (see photos) - about 30,000 miles ago/circa 1989 at a cost of $10,000 plus the engine was rebuilt and a new breathing system installed, to accommodate the pulley the bonnet was tastefully modified too. The pictures show the changes. This was all done long before I owned the car so I cannot answer too much detail. Car was serviced about 200 miles ago.

Ebay asks that I describe faults so these are the main faults in my view, I am trying to be as honest as I can and leave it up to you to judge what you think of the car vs. being a huckster. The paint is very high quality but there are a few small cracks at seems e.g. where A pillar and fender meet, the clock does not work, the A/C plumbing was removed when the engine was modified and does not come with car, the car starts every time but as I don't drive it too much it smokes for the first minute or two but once warmed up is fine, like many 911's it weeps oil but nothing too bothersome, the driver's seat has a small fraying on side that seems to be not getting any worse, the dash top was cracked and a cap put on it and some of the rubber weather stripping would need replacing.

This car is being sold "as is" and "where is" with no guarantees implied or otherwise. The sale is final. I ask for a non-refundable deposit in the amount of $1,000 within 72 hours of the auction end via bank wire transfer or cashier's check via overnight mail. Fully cleared funds of full payment must be received within 10 days of auction regardless of when you arrange for pick up of vehicle. If deposit is not received within the required period of time, the vehicle will be offered for sale to runner up high bidder or re-listed. This is to be considered an absolute sale and the buyer is required to comply with all of my conditions in these terms of sale. With your winning bid the auction you agree with my terms of sale and the terms of sale are to be considered a legal and binding purchase agreement. There are no inspections to be made after the auction ends. I reserve the right to cancel any bid at any time and to end the auction early for any reason. I have tried to describe in any known flaws in the vehicle. The displayed odometer mileage on the vehicle is correct at the time of listing. This is an older car, 40 years old, so condition is a subjective thing to individual. I shall not be responsible for the absolute correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and make no guaranties or warranty in connection with the sale of this vehicle. My description of the vehicle is for presentation only and not to be accepted as a warranty of any type. It is up to the buyer to have themselves satisfied as to the condition and value of the vehicle before bidding and to bid based upon that judgment only. I assume no responsibility for any repairs whatsoever regardless of any oral or written statements about the vehicle.

Good luck and thank you for your interest

Muffler Man gets racing suit to mark progress on Porsche Experience Center

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

In a dramatic change of careers, a fiberglass Muffler Man statue on the side of a busy Los Angeles freeway, formerly known as "Golf Guy," traded in his clubs for a Porsche driver's suit a couple days ago. It's no coincidence, as he's standing on land that the German automaker bought from the Dominguez Hills Golf Course a couple years ago to build its west coast Porsche Experience Center - which will be complete with a test track, restoration and maintenance facilities, a cafe and restaurant, a home for Porsche Motorsports North America and more, when it's finished in the fourth quarter of 2014.
The Porsche Muffler Man will serve as the gatekeeper to the 53-acre center and overlook the test track on the side of the 405 freeway. We can't think of a better job for a fiberglass giant that used to watch golf all day than to watch Porsche road cars and racecars getting wrung out on a test track in the middle of LA. Since Muffler Men are quite adaptable, we're sure this one will fit into his new role in no time - just as easily as he can double as Paul Bunyan.
Check out the press release below for more information on the Muffler Man and the experience center, which could be the ultimate adult playground when it's finished.

VW Group recalls 27k Touaregs, Audis and Porsches for fuel leak

Tue, Jan 27 2015

The Volkswagen Group is one of the most expansive in the entire industry, and shares parts across more product lines than we could wrap our heads around. So when the German megalith finds a fault in one of its components, it has the capacity to spread like wildfire. The latest set of recall notices from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration covers vehicles from the Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche divisions. The problem revolves around the fuel injection system, which could potentially leak and cause a fire. The recall affects – deep breath now Â– the 2012 VW Touareg Hybrid, the 2011-12 Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid and Panamera S Hybrid, 2011-12 Audi S4, S5 and Q7 and the 2012-13 Audi A7. All told, that amounts to 27,376 units, the owners of which can expect to hear from the manufacturer to have the fuel rails replaced, along with their corresponding seals (having nothing to do with marine mammals writing letters). RECALL Subject : Fuel Injection System Fuel Leak Report Receipt Date: JAN 20, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V019000 Component(s): FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE Potential Number of Units Affected: 26,008 Manufacturer: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. SUMMARY: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Audi S4, S5, Q7, 2012 Audi A6, Volkswagen Touareg Hybrid, and 2012-2013 Audi A7 vehicles. In the affected vehicles the fuel injection system may experience a fuel leak. CONSEQUENCE: A fuel leak in the injection system in the presence of an ignition source, increases the risk of a fire. REMEDY: Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will replace the fuel rails and corresponding seals, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin March 10, 2015. Owners may contact Audi customer service at 1-800-822-2834 or Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298. Volkswagen's numbers for this recall are 24AP for Audi customers and 24BK for Volkswagen customers. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov. ### RECALL Subject : Fuel Injection System may Leak Report Receipt Date: JAN 20, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V016000 Component(s): ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING Potential Number of Units Affected: 1,368 Manufacturer: Porsche Cars North America, Inc.
