 My vehicle is being re-listed because of a non-paying bidder.  PLEASE NO OVERSEAS BIDDERS OR BIDDERS WITH A SCORE OF LESS THAN '5'. Up for auction is my exquisite 1980 Porsche 911SC sunroof coupe.  It is being offered with NO RESERVE! It is finished in its original and rare color of Casablanca Beige Metallic. This is the original color but the vehicle has had paintwork in the past to eliminate dings and scratches. Please read my entire listing and look at all photographs.  This is an extremely nice 'driver quality' vehicle that should provide you with many hours of pleasure (as it has me). Classic Porsche and Excellence Magazines both report that the 911SC is on the fast track to being the next big collectible in Porsche automobiles.  The buy-in is low on these vehicles and the potential investment opportunity is high!  But whether you're looking at it as an investment, or just enjoy the way this car makes you feel, this one's a winner.  From the job site, to the drive-through, this Porsche never fails to elicit an enthusiastic 'thumbs up' from the envious masses.  Originally purchased in Texas, it has enjoyed a pampered life by all of it's owners.  I purchased it in 2012 from what was purported to be its third owner. I will provide you with contact information for both the third and the second owner (before them, the trail got cold). The original owner's manual, warranty booklet, keys and one remote as well as its original tool kit, spare tire, jack, etc... are included. The tire inflation kit is missing.  Also comes with a pile of receipts from myself and previous owner.  A Bentley Publishers Service Manual will be included as well as an extensive album of photos, Porsche Club of America Panorama Magazines and the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Runs and drives well. Air Conditioning has been removed (no, I don't have it). I added Whale Tail and Carrera stripes. Also comes with original engine cover in original color if you want a different look, just bolt it on and go! Miles shown are NOT ACTUAL. Odometer is inoperative.  Engine runs well, doesn't smoke has some small oil leaks (common). Runs, drives, stops as it should, trans 'pops out' of first gear (I just leave in second). Power windows work intermittently. Window frames are body color, should be black. Body is in extremely nice condition with just a few stone chips (largest is pictured located on frunk). Interior is near new condition, however there is damage to the headliner behind the driver's seat (you won't notice while you are driving, and you have to lie down on your back to see it, but who knows? Maybe you'll get lucky). If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me (Matt) at any time.  I check email once a day, but will be available by telephone at eight 1 zero-6 two 5- six two 76.  Bid with confidence. You won't be disappointed. If you have a feedback score of four or less, please contact me before bidding. If you are from out of the country, sorry, this one is for U.S. bidders only. I am more than happy to work with you arranging payment, but will require a Paypal deposit of $1000 within 48 hours of close of auction and will require funds in my hand within seven days unless we have come up with another REAL arrangement. US buyers only please. Please have funds in hand when you bid. I will accept cash or other forms of verifiable monies but will not release the car until all funds have cleared my account.  Not looking for returnable bottles, IOU's or offers to become the Prince of a foreign land. Bidders from out of the United States or with a feedback of less than '5' need to contact me before bidding or they may be eliminated from the auction. This is a great car and will make some lucky owner very happy. Thank you and good luck!

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911s with limited edition model

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

Despite being 50 years old now, the Porsche 911 sure is looking good for her age. And to commemorate this milestone anniversary, Porsche has created the 911 50 Years Edition you see here, which will make its debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show - 50 years after the original 911 debuted at this very same expo.
What's really neat about the 50 Years Edition is that it houses a rear-wheel-drive setup inside of the wider body used for all-wheel-drive Carrera 4 and 4S models. Found at the back is the 3.8-liter flat-six from the Carrera S, upgraded with the Powerkit package that increases horsepower from 400 to 430 and includes the Sport Chrono setup. According to Porsche, hitting 60 miles per hour takes just 4.2 seconds with the seven-speed manual transmission, or 3.8 seconds with the optional dual-clutch PDK.
Visual changes include two special paint colors - a darker graphite grey and a lighter geyser grey - unique 20-inch wheels that pay homage to the original Fuchs rollers of the 1963 car, and special badging at the rear and on the door sills. Inside, there are more throwbacks to the original 911, with green labeling on the instruments, white pointer needles and silver accents. What's more, the leather seats feature a fabric insert reminiscent of the Pepita design from the '60s. Looks great to us.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

Recharge Wrap-up: Big Oil fails at renewable fuel, scientists study air with EVs, plug-in Panamera sales

Thu, Jul 10 2014

Big Oil companies help keep renewable fuels out of your tank, a new report shows. No surprise there, right? The Renewable Fuels Association published a report card grading the country's largest retail gasoline chains on fuel offerings like E85 and E15. The report gave failing grades, with less than one percent of stations offering E15 or E85, to "Big Five" companies Exxon, BP, ConocoPhillips, Chevron and Shell, among other oil company and convenience/grocery store brands. The only major oil companies that didn't get an "F" were Valero (D), Cenex (B), and Marathon (A-). The eight companies that scored an A+ had at least 25 percent of their stations offering E85 or E15.

Beginning July 4, University of Leicester researchers began driving electric vehicles kitted out with special sensors to monitor air quality throughout the city (similar to how California does it). Now their emissions-free daily driving duties double as data collection for their studies. "By monitoring air quality as a seamless part of our daily transport system, we are providing a cost-effective way to help inform future policy and operational systems," says the University's Dr. Roland Leigh.

"There is no doubt electric cars are the future." – Nissan's Andy Palmer Nissan is exploring the idea of taking its Leaf EV to India, but a lack of charging options is an obstacle. According to Nissan's chief planning officer Andy Palmer, "There is no doubt electric cars are the future. The product is there, what we need is infrastructure. Charging is a big challenge." Though Nissan stopped short of saying it (this time), this could possibly mean working with Mahindra, which said it is open to collaborating with other companies concerning EVs. Learn more in this article from the Hindustan Times and know that India is rolling out a plan to encourage the production and adoption of EVs. The National Electric Mobility Mission Plan will get over $2 billion in funding, and some of that will go toward creating a charging infrastructure (you hear that, Nissan?). This is good news for EV manufacturers, India's economy and people who enjoy breathing clean air.
