This is a beautiful and rare 1982 Porsche 911 SC, "sunroof delete" car, in amazing original mechanical and cosmetic
condition. With only 3 (all local) owners, as well as records and documents since new, this car runs, shifts,
drives, stops, and does everything it should, in an excellent manner. Zero rust, and very little wear, to indicate
it's 68K (only 2,000 per year!) of gentle, "seasonal" use.
A few highlights:
* 68,000 original documented miles
* Official Certificate of Authenticity ("C.O.A.") from Porsche
* Rare sunroof delete car (sunroofs were optional, but appeared on the majority of U.S. cars)
* Freshly serviced & runs great
The car was originally 'rosewood metallic', but was near perfectly resprayed (a much more attractive) Guards Red,
in an excellent (glass & seals all out, etc), no-expense spared fashion, and there is no hint of a color change
anywhere on the car. All of the requisite 911 SC updates have been made, including pressure fed "Carrera" chain
tensioners, and air-box pop off valve. While never driven daily, and obviously not accumulating many miles, the car
has never sat for extended periods of time, and has always been regularly exercised. It has also just been freshly
serviced and gone through, is in excellent mechanical shape, and is ready for a long tour, or spirited drive. The
car has excellent oil pressure, and a nice steady and consistent idle. While this car has never been tracked, the
sunroof delete option, saves weight, and adds to the already great handling, making this SC a great auto-cross
candidate, if one desires. The original Fuchs are in excellent condition, and the tires show good tread. It has
been fitted with a more modern cd player and speakers.
While certainly not a perfect concourse car (what fun is that?), this is an excellent example of a wonderful
driver, 911 SC. There is slight patina to the original steering wheel leather, and while the original dash has no
cracks, the leather has shrunk in a few small spots (we're being picky now), but none of this affects drivability
or usability, and wouldn't even be noticeable to the average observer. The seats, floors, etc are all in very nice
condition, with little to no wear, as one would expect, with a vehicle that has had constant care, love and
maintenance.
Considered by many marque enthusiasts, as the quintessential air-cooled 911, the SC is rapidly getting the respect
of the collector market, and is sure to quickly enjoy the appreciation garnered by the early 911 and 356 cars.
Invest in one of the last, original low mileage cars, at a reasonable price, before it's too late!

Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
Porsche reveals new LMP1 racecar testing ahead of 2014 Le Mans debut
Wed, 12 Jun 2013Getting ready for its triumphant return to the premier racing class of Le Mans, Porsche has released a handful of images showing its new LMP1 racecar testing. Porsche hasn't run a car in the Prototype class at 24 Hours of Le Mans since 2009, but this racecar - still veiled in secrecy - will be expected to battle against the Audi and Toyota LMP1 Prototypes to help bring Porsche its 17th Le Mans victory.
Aside from knowing that it will use a hybrid powertrain to meet LMP1 rules, there are no other details about the car... including its name or potential sponsors. In the meantime, Porsche has set up a microsite, called Mission 2014, to share its extensive history racing at Le Mans. Also, be sure to check out some of the past videos Porsche has released as it gears up for its reborn LMP1 program.
Porsche (finally) unleashes full, official details on 918 Spyder
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Porsche has finally let released all of the details on the 918 Spyder, the German brand's challenger to the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari, after months of leading our poor, performance-loving hearts on. The covers were lifted at the Volkswagen Group night, an enormous precursor to the Frankfurt Motor Show, and include a massive, 11,000-word press release that's attached at the bottom of this page.
The 918 Spyder features a mid-mounted, dry-sump-lubricated, 4.6-liter V8 engine that generates 608 horsepower when left to its own devices. Combined with a trio of electric motors, which produce 286 hp, the total system horsepower for the 918 Spyder rests at 887 ponies. That's less than the McLaren P1 (903 hp) and the LaFerrari (949 hp), but the Porsche is also likely to be a bit cheaper, starting at $845,000, while the McLaren will be in the seven-figure range for certain, and it will more than likely be joined by the LaFezza.
The 918 Spyder counters with a 2.8-second jog to 62, a 7.7-second run to 124 and it will hit 186 in 22 seconds.
