1983 Porsche 911SC 3.0 Targa 


VIN # : WP0EA0918DS160507

Miles : 186,474

Well, the family is expanding, so some toys have to go .. 

This is a great example of a 1983 Porsche 911SC Targa, that has been a California car it's whole life, with no accidents.  I always babied her, kept safely in the garage, used only for the occasional nice weather drives down the Pacific highway.  Note :  there have been a number of upgrades installed on this vehicle since I purchased her in 11/08 with 177,289. Since then, I have put on a mere 9,186 miles and had the following installed :

Including : 

Bosch Euro Lighting Kit
Short Shift Kit
17" Boxster Rims w/ 2" Spacers (Professionally Aligned and Balanced) 
205/50ZR17XL (Front) 255/40ZR17 (Rear)
Bilstein Shocks (HD's in Front and Sports in Rear) 
StrutTower Braces (Interior and Trunk) 
1000W Alpine/ Focal Stereo CD/FM/IPod w/ 12" Subwoofer (sounds amazing) 
Alarm System (Currently Disabled) 
Respray (front and installed new emblem)
New Targa Top and Headliner
New Fiberglass Top (Aftermarket hard top)
New Leather Upholstery
New Windshield Glass 
New Battery 
New Seals @ 178K,000
Rebuilt Transmission @ 178,000  
Chain Tensioner Upgrade
New Rubber Seals throughout cabin
Regular Tune Ups & Oil Change etc
Passed CA SMOG TEST in 01/13 

My mechanic has offered to speak to any serious parties if they wanted to know more about the vehicle, and I can send you his info to contact him directly. Or we can discuss details around sending to a mechanic of your choice for a formal inspection.  Trust me, you will not be disappointed in this 911SC - as I have painstakingly given a lot of attention to detail to this vehicle.  The only negatives about this include : There's no AC (doesn't appear to work) but seat heaters, and defroster work perfectly. Also, I don't have the original Fuchs rims anymore. However, I do have the back seat where the subwoofer in back currently is - in case you want to switch back to stock.  The aftermarket fiberglass top fits snugly, but I lost the original screws, now replaced with ones that are (almost) too short. They do work fine, and hold the top on fine but should be 1/4" longer. There are some minor oil leaks (very few) and yet the seals were redone 8K ago.  My mechanic is air cooled Porsche specialist, and says this is one of the nicest working examples he has ever seen. 

Overall : This Porsche starts on a dime, pulls strong, and because of the short shift kit, and transmission rebuild, shifting is tight and satisfying.  There a few very minor paint blemishes (side and rear panel) - and I have had them touched up, but the paint is in exceptional shape. 

Clean Title in hand, currently registered in CA, I have all service records from the time I have owned, and some from previous owner. 

I will work with you to coordinate shipping arrangements, as I will be willing to ship this vehicle within the continental USA. (only). Buyer is responsible for all shipping fees.

Techart modified Porsche 911 Turbo S packs 620 hp, 0-62 in 2.8 seconds

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Considering how many absolutely ridiculous tuner cars are featured in Geneva (stay tuned to see plenty, as our coverage continues), it's often refreshing to see some of the more modestly modified cars, like this new Porsche 911 Turbo S from the folks at Techart. Visually, there's a subtle body kit, new wheels, a new spoiler, and some lame decals on the front end, but it basically ends there. That's because Techart's mission is really about higher performance. Increased dynamism, as the Germans say.
An ordinary 911 Turbo S produces 560 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. But the Techart kit adds 60 hp and 96 lb-ft to those already high numbers, for a coupe that dishes out a total of 620 hp and 612 lb-ft. Techart says that, in Sport Plus mode, its modified 911 Turbo S will accelerate to 62 miles per hour in just 2.8 seconds, and the top speed has been increased to 204 miles per hour. Crazy stuff.
To further drive its performance upgrades home, Techart has fitted this 911 Turbo S with a sport exhaust system with valve control, for a more robust exit interview, at the push of a button. We imagine it sounds awesome. Have a look at the Techart Turbo S in the gallery, above.

Your guide to vehicle subscription services

Mon, Oct 1 2018

They might be extremely limited in scope because of location availability, but vehicle subscription services are a growing trend that most luxury manufacturers are jumping on. Plans are expensive, but you're paying for much more than just the car typically. We highlighted four of the larger plans with a few more listed at the end. Care by Volvo Volvo launched its subscription service last year with its brand-new XC40. It was the only vehicle available for a time, but subscribers can now get an S60 sedan as well. Subscriptions are for two years, with the monthly price including insurance, a concierge service, wear-and-tear item replacements and all maintenance. You'll be able to drive 15,000 miles per year with whichever Volvo you choose, and although there are no options to extend that mileage, you can swap cars after a year. Pricing for the XC40 is $650 per month in base trim, while an S60 can be as expensive as $850 for the R-Design. Volvo's plan is to offer more cars soon through the service, but it's relatively limited compared to others right now. Porsche Passport Porsche has two levels in its subscription service: Launch and Accelerate. Launch will cost $2,000 per month and give you access to the Cayman, Boxster, Macan and Cayenne. All of those but the Cayenne can be had in "S" trim as well. Accelerate is where the fun really starts. For $3,000 per month you can choose from a fleet of 911s, including the S, 4S, Cabriolet and Cabriolet S. If those aren't enough, you can also get the Panamera 4S, Macan GTS and Cayenne S. There are no mileage limits and you can change vehicles as often as you'd like. Also included in the price is insurance, repairs, detailing and any maintenance. It might be extremely expensive and limited to Atlanta only, but this subscription service is second-to-none for what you get. Audi Select Audi just launched its subscription car service, and it's offered in one version for a flat fee of $1,395 per month. For that you'll have access to five different cars including the A4, S5 Coupe, A5 Cabriolet, Q5, and Q7. Not a bad range of vehicles, but it would've been neat to see the recently updated A7 in there too. Maybe in time. Like the others, insurance and maintenance are wrapped up in the price. Audi is allowing for unlimited miles and two car swaps per month here. In addition to that, you'll get two days of free rentals through Audi's Silvercar rental agency should you go on a trip.

Porsche offering new tire option for Carrera GT

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

Let's face it: finding new tires for older cars can be challenging if tire manufacturers have stopped carrying the right sizes (this writer went through Hell to find a set of 205/60-13s). But what about tires for low-volume supercars, which use sizes that often won't fit on high-volume production vehicles? The Porsche Carrera GT isn't that old and tires are still available in the correct sizes, but the German automaker has shown its support of keeping them on the road by working with Michelin to give owners yet another tire option. Enter the Carrera GT-specific Pilot Super Sport.
It's common knowledge that tires are one of the most important pieces of the performance puzzle, and Porsche claims that the PSS tires, sized 265/35ZR-19 front and 335/30ZR-20 with Porsche's "N0" rating, will improve the Carrera GT's handling and stability all the way up to its claimed top speed of 205 miles per hour. That's important for a car with razor-sharp handling characteristics. They'll also net drivers a 10-percent increase in fuel economy on regular roads and up to 20 percent on racetracks, Porsche says.
The PSSs use cutting-edge tire technology to harness the Carrera GT's 610-horsepower. They have a dual-compound tread that's different from the inside of the tire to the outside, which, Porsche says, helps steering precision and increases maximum grip. Aramid fibers, which are lightweight but just as strong as steel, are used in the tire's belt to reduce unsprung weight.
