1977 Porsche 911. Car has a Strosek wide body kit so it appears similar to a 930 turbo. Original North Carolina car, tub is rust free, even the battery pan is in excellent condition. Car has been driven very little in last ten plus years. Starting with the rust free tub this Porsche has beautiful royal blue fresh paint (10/12) new struts, turbo tie rods, ball joints, New suspension bushings (combination of Weltmeister and stock) and shock absorbers. Later model Porsche carrera 18' wheels running Pirellis with less than 1000 miles on them. Front brake calipers rebuilt and new brakes (08/13). New Porsche 930 steering wheel, shifter coupler bushings and dash light bulbs. New later style headlights and bulbs.
Engine is a 1978 3.0 liter, a definitely superior engine from the stock 2.7. The engine has been upgraded with Carrera tensioners, new turbo valve covers, pop-off valve, alternator, 900 CCA battery (08/13) complete fluid replacement (06/13). Swepco 201 trans fluid, oil change and new air filter. Dynaflow exhaust and newer SSI heat exchangers. Cannot verify that the engine has been rebuilt but runs very strong with a wide power band. Alignment done (08/13).
Interior is in very good condition, tan with original carpet, no tears/rips in seats or headliner. Newer CD stereo system. Odometer shows less than 69k mileage but cannot verify it is accurate. Based on local Porsche expert opinion he stated the overall body condition would be consistent with a car with this mileage.
This car is 36 years old and in overall excellent condition but it does have a few minor issues that I have not yet had the time to sort out. My Porsche was bought as a project but was side tracked due to health. The tach and sunroof do not work. It may be a switch, driving lights are not currently wired and like all Porsches has minor oil leak. Excellent driving car, it has a 930 turbo look without the cost of investment and upkeep. This is a solid car that draws lots of gazes and compliments.

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.
Motor Trend holds World's Greatest Drag Race for the third time
Fri, 23 Aug 2013As part of Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car competition, the buff book has held its third iteration of the World's Greatest Drag Race. With an airfield and a dozen of the world's finest performance cars at its disposal (oh, and a helicopter), the MT team did what any good group of enthusiasts would do, and tried to figure what car could cover a quarter mile the quickest. World's greatest drag race, indeed.
The contestants, as MT points out, cover a huge variety of engine types, drivelines, aspiration types and body styles, making for a genuinely varied and interesting field of competitors. Here's the full list of cars taking part.

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911 with some excellent pics
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time, and to celebrate the car's first 50 years, Porsche has released a stunning set of photos showing how far the 911 has come from the original back in 1963 to its current 991 generation. Unlike the recent 60-year photo spread that Chevrolet put together for the Corvette, though, Porsche's gallery only shows the original 911 and the current car.
Each time the 911 is redesigned, the car's front fenders, roofline and the shape of the side windows are key focal points. Even some of the interior cues have remained the same over the years, including the positioning of the ignition key on the left of the steering column and the five-gauge instrument cluster layout.
Scroll down for Porsche's press release breaking down the seven generations of the 911, and be sure to check out our gallery with plenty of high-res pics for you to download as a desktop wallpaper. In fact, we're providing these at 1920-pixels-wide instead of our usual 1280 wide. Enjoy!
