1983 Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Houston, Texas, United States
very clean 1983 911sc... runs and drive tight and smooth, this a clean driver that was highly opted which includes factory wing, sunroof front, chin spoiler, fog lights, h4 lights, factor ac (not working) and pleated leather seats. the porsche is all stock but the exhaust was upgraded to a ss system that sounds awesome. I bought this car for my wife because it was her dream car, not knowing she was not willing to learn to drive a manual. she didnt know the car only came manual. I have driven the porsche over 2500 miles in the last 6 months with no problems at all. I remove the ac because it didnt work and I was told the removal would add power, it did! not a lot but the car is so light every little bit help. I would not say its fast but it is fun to drive for sure. (my last porsche was 911 twin turbo, it was fast!) I hate to sell this car but she said she want a 997 with an auto trans. lol I looked long and hard to this car and was very happy with it. I purchased an additional deck lid because I prefer the no wing look, I have the original wing and its in great shape. I also have the ac complete. new parts include: fuel pump,fuel hose and clamps, fuel sending unit, all new oil lines, oil change, oil drain ring. work preformed on 5-03-16. miles 110,125 spark plugs. work preformed 2-03-016 ignition control unit and ignition coil 2-01-16 window switchs and v-belt 11-30-10 fuel accumulator, fuel filter, air regulartor, hood gas strut, preformed 8-06-09 shift ball socket, shift sleeve, shift coupler, plastic sleeve, preformed 8-06-09 with 109869 miles... miles on the car today is 110900 new Alpine blue tooth radio and new alpine speakers work preformed 6-10-16 THE GOODS: it a 1983 porsche 911sc the last year of the sc and the most powerful. it runs and drives so good! shifts great though all the gears like it should, I driven hundreds of 911 with the 915 trans and this is the best of all. the inside is good no rips or tears dash is good all controls work like they should all the gauges work even the clock the brake are good and stop like new recently had a tune up which includes NEW FUEL PUMP, PLUGS, MSD COIL, TIE RODS AND BATTERY. I have all the a/c parts and the factor rear wing. 915 Transmission shifts very smooth and tight THE BAD: not that much really the paint is super shinny and looks great going down the road, but some of the body work done before the paint is not great you can see sanding scratches in some places and the clear on the passenger side door is not smooth. maybe it could be buffed, I was going the paint the car so I didnt care. SO.... Im writing this and I walk out to my car to look to see if I overlooked anything and noticed the dash now has a crack in it and didnt yesturday sunroof is not working the motor works but the roof does not move.

Porsche 911 RSR stops just long enough to have its photo taken
Tue, 04 Mar 2014When it comes to Porsche and its rapidly escalating endurance racing program, all eyes may be on the new 919 Hybrid - and with good reason: that's the vehicle with which Porsche will be challenging the likes of Audi and Toyota for wins in the top-tier LMP1 class of the FIA World Endurance Championship and at Le Mans. But it's the 911 RSR that does and will continue to form the backbone of the factory's effort.
The 470-horsepower racing version of the road-going 911 took a one-two finish in its class at Le Mans last year, and also won its class at the Daytona 24 this past January as well. This year Porsche will field two of them in the WEC, another two in the United SportsCar Championship here in the US and will sell countless more to customer racing teams that will undoubtedly continue to rack up trophies in racing series around the world. This, then, might be a unique chance to see one standing still. Check it out in our gallery of live images above from the Geneva Motor Show.
Porsche recalls new 911 models over exhaust pipe issues
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Porsche, though the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, announced a voluntary recall on about 2,200 911 Carrera and Carrera 4 models built during the 2012 and 2013 model years. On cars equipped with the standard exhaust system it was found that the tailpipes could separate from the mufflers and become dangerous road debris; models that added the optional sport exhaust system are not included in this recall.
Affected vehicles were built between March and November of last year, but there have been no reports of the problem on any customer-owned vehicles. Porsche first noticed a cracked tailpipe weld on a test vehicle back in May, and since then has found similar problems on other internally owned vehicles, all with more than 25,000 miles on the clock. To fix the problem, dealers will be replacing the mufflers. Scroll down to read the official notice.
Porsche LMP1 to use 4-cyl hybrid powertrain [w/poll]
Wed, 11 Dec 2013With the Formula One season - and indeed his entire F1 career - now behind him, Mark Webber took advantage of his early release from Red Bull Racing to try out the new LMP1 which Porsche is developing, undertaking the final test session of 2013 before Porsche throws it head first into the FIA World Endurance Championship next April. The session - which followed previous tests at Magny-Cours, Monza, Paul Ricard and the Eurospeedway at Lausitz - was held at the Algarve circuit in Portimão, Portgual, in collaboration with Michelin, which is developing the tires for the car. But that's hardly the news here.
No, the news is the first confirmation we've seen on the type of powertrain Porsche has developed for its new Le Mans prototype: a gasoline-burning four-cylinder engine with direct injection and two energy recovery systems. This contrasts sharply with the V6 turbodiesel and single electric motor used by Audi in the R18 e-tron Quattro (or at least the outgoing version) or the naturally-aspirated V8 and single electric motor found in the Toyota TS030. Flexibility in the rules set down by the FIA and ACO give the manufacturers that kind of latitude, prompting F1 teams like Ferrari and Renault to consider developing their new engines for Le Mans prototypes as well.
At this point Porsche isn't saying how large its four-cylinder engine is or how much power it will produce. But it'll be interesting, to say the least, to see how it fares against the Audi and Toyota in next year's championship and at Le Mans when it'll be piloted by Webber, former Lola LMP1 driver Neel Jani and Audi's own 2011 Le Mans-winning pair of Romain Dumas and Timo Bernhard.
