1985 Euro Spec Porsche 911 Targa 3.2l on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
Presented before you is a 1985 3.2L Euro Porsche 911 Targa. The car was offered here weeks ago but because of previous winner’s inability to raise funds, it is placed on the market once more. Again if you need to sell one car to get this car please do not bid. Allow me to once more address some of the car’s history to you. It is a 2 owner 1985 Euro Spec 911 Targa with factory special ordered paint and cr?me leather. (I’ve attached the color code for your inspection and 2 sets of photos of the car in different light so you can see how extraordinary this color is). The Euro spec 3.2L cars came with 10.3:1 compression compared to the U.S.’s 9.5:1. What this means is 231HP instead of 200HP output. The engine, transmission and chassis #s are matching by the way. The vehicle has been in California since 1986 hence the blue plates which you see. What makes this Euro spec Targa even more desirable is that it also wears the California BAR sticker which so many of the Euro spec’d cars on Ebay do not have. This makes it a 100% smog legal in California. I have also attached photos of the car’s last smog certificate which was performed in October 2013 to prove. The vehicle is clean through and through with no stories, no gawdy add ons like whale tails and chrome wheels. Enough of my blabber and here are the bullet points on why you should or shouldn’t buy the car. Con’s: - 116,670miles - Odometer, headlights, and front bumper converted to US spec to allow for US entry. - Several door dings and minute scratches along door edge and rear lid. - Weathered steering wheel along with front and rear dash. - Dated radio system that needs to be addressed. -
Squeaky suspension over hard road bumps. Suspension
is original and has never been changed. Car is unmolested. - Other Porschephiles asking if they can have this car’s paint code. - Annoying Ferrari 308 owners trying to race you thinking they’re in the movie ‘Against All Odds’.
Pro’s: - 116,670miles (For 29years that equates to 4000miles per year!) - Euro spec 3.2L motor. - 100% No rust (Photos of under the car included) - Matching numbers - Porsche special paint combo. - All OEM parts except for radio. - Water tight Targa top. Inside and out. - All functioning electrical seat, windows, lights, wipers, dash lights, and A/C. - Recently serviced in March by Charles, ex Stable mechanic here in SF, with all fluids replaced. Sparkplugs swapped out. Mechanic can be contacted as he knows the vehicle’s history. - Brakes on demand with no issues. - CA smogged, CA Titled, CA blue plated, and CA garaged here in San Francisco. - 16” OEM Fuchs wheels with no curb rash and tires. - Complete tools, manuals, pouch and spare wheel + tire. - Upside resale in European markets. - Located in San Francisco and ready for any test drives. - Detailed on April 11th.
Bid with absolute confidence.

Porsche to develop new line of engines for next Panamera
Sat, 22 Mar 2014When the second generation of the four-door Porsche Panamera launches, it will likely be riding a new platform, complete with an all-new family of V6 and V8 engines, according to a report coming out of the UK.
Autocar reports that the so-called MSB platform will likely underpin the Panamera, and it could be shared with Bentley, provided the Volkswagen-owned, British-built brand commits to the architecture. As for the engines, it's reported that they'll have a sportier character than the V6s and V8s being built for Volkswagen and Audi's vehicles.
"Porsche will have its own new V8 that will be common to the new MSB platform," Porsche's chief engineer, Wolfgang Hatz, said. "It's a family for the next 10 years of cars." Whether the V8 and V6 will be used outside of the Panamera line, though, remains unclear. There's also no mention of what place turbocharging would have with the new engines.
Porsche to decide soon on Bugatti future
Mon, Jun 21 2021WEISSACH, Germany — Volkswagen will soon decide on the future of its luxury brand Bugatti, Oliver Blume, Volkswagen management board member and CEO of Porsche AG, said on Monday. Last week, Reuters reported that Bugatti was working on a strategic partnership with Rimac, which will likely result in a joint venture between Porsche and Rimac, with Porsche as a minority partner, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess said in March. "The future of Bugatti is an issue that will be decided on a group level," Porsche said in a statement, declining to comment further. Porsche boss Oliver Blume earlier this year said intense discussions on Bugatti's future were ongoing and that Rimac could play a role as the brands were a good technological fit, adding that a decision was expected in the first half of 2021.

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy
Wed, 24 Jul 2013J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.
