Here is your chance to own one of the last and highly desirable series of the air cooled Porsche 911s. These
Porsches are going up in value rapidly as collectors (both here and in Europe) are buying them up.
Up for sale is this beautiful 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa. This two owner car and has only been driven (not
raced) approximately 2,500 miles per year during its life with the odometer currently showing 72,638 miles. This
Porsche 911 has the bulletproof 3.2L motor and it is equipped with the highly regarded and very smooth shifting,
G50 transmission. This specific 911 was manufactured in February of 1987 and was equipped with numerous options
including designations: C03 California Car; 158 Blaupunkt Reno Radio; 341 Central Locking System/Power Door Locks;
375 Clutch Lining without Asbestos; 454 Cruise Control and 474 Sports Shock Absorbers. Due to the pristine nature
of this vehicle, the original glued on paper assembly line data sheet, confirming the VIN and all ordered options
above is still attached under the hood. Also, because the car has never been in any type of accident nor had any
damage or repairs done to the body, all of the body panels, doors, hood and deck lid still have the original
Porsche stickers with the matching VIN numbers attached. This is a 100% numbers matching car.
The exterior paint is completely original and there has been no repainting anywhere. The Porsche has always been
stored inside under protection so the original black exterior paint is in excellent condition and is both extremely
glossy and highly reflective. There are no door dings or dents in the body. There are some small rock chips to
the hood and front end and one scratch over the right front wheel. There is absolutely no rust on the car
anywhere. The Targa roof does need to have the original vinyl covering replaced. There are no cracks, chips or
scratches to the original front windshield. The fully original interior is also in great shape. The black leather
seats are in very nice shape without any cracking or significant scuffing as is commonly seen on higher mileage
911s. There are no cracks anywhere in the dash and the original carpet is in good shape. Both the power windows
and door locks work perfectly. Mechanically, the 3.2L engine fires up immediately, runs strong and pulls hard
without any smoke or noises. The G50 gearbox shifts smoothly with ease and the synchros feel great in every gear.
The clutch engages properly and has no slippage, chatter or noises. The AC has not been recharged for several
years, so it will not blow any cold air. The brakes are good and they stop the car straight and true. The car has
been upgraded mechanically with a Bursch tuned muffler, a shock tower brace, a K&N air intake filter and a
performance chip. All of the original OEM parts (the muffler, the restrictive air box/filter and the chip) have
been retained and will be included with the sale. If desired, the car can be returned to its fully original state
with these parts very quickly and easily since no modifications were made to the car to add any of the upgrades.
Since the car recently passed its VA inspection, the brake pads and tires pass inspection and all of lights, turn
signals, horn, wipers and other tested items are all working properly.
Finally, this Porsche has its original space saver spare tire, jack, air compressor and the complete toolkit. It
also comes with the original brown Porsche vinyl folder containing the Owner’s Manual, Maintenance and Warranty
Book, and the Dealer Directory. A clean Carfax report can also be provided.
Please feel free to ask any questions.
It is becoming hard to find the 1987-1989 air cooled Porsche 911s in good condition. Buy your appreciating classic
car now.

Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023
Mon, Sep 12 2022Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVs like the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like the BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in. But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below. Best Subcompact Luxury SUV  |  Best Compact Luxury SUV  |  Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row) Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out: Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better: Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded, non-luxury compact SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.   Volvo XC40 Why it stands out: More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better: Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.
Porsche Macan to debut at LA Auto Show
Wed, 29 May 2013Auto Express reports Porsche will unveil the upcoming Macan SUV at this year's LA Auto Show. Citing an unnamed "insider," AE says that the five-door will bow with engines, suspension and interior architecture that will help differentiate it from its Audi Q5 chassis mate. Big shocker there. We've been hearing the same line since we first caught word of the Macan back when it was still rolling around under the Cajun name. The report does shed some light on the model's pricing, however. That same insider says the Porsche Macan will carry a price tag of 36,000 pounds.
What does that mean for American buyers? Do some quick math based on current conversion rates, and average UK and US prices, and we come up with a sticker of roughly $42,000 here in the land of the free. That fits in line with the rest of the company's stable, with the larger Cayenne starting at $49,600.
Still, we'll wait for more concrete word before jumping behind the AE report wholeheartedly. The 2013 LA Auto Show gets going in late November.
Porsche 918 Spyder officially priced from $845K, Weissach package $84K more
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Porsche has released official pricing for its entire lineup of 2013 models, which just happens to include the upcoming 918 Spyder hybrid supercar. The 795-horsepower advanced-technology-lab-on-wheels is now officially confirmed to have a starting price of $845,000 in the US, which is the exact amount we were told earlier when we had the opportunity to ride shotgun in some 918 Spyder pre-production test vehicles.
What we didn't know at the time was the cost of the Weissach trim package, which is a high-performance upgrade to the standard vehicle that includes the deletion of some interior amenities and addition of lighter-weight carbon fiber appointments, magnesium wheels, flame-resistant upholstery, racing belts and aerodynamic aids - it's meant for track-going folk who intend to use their 918 Spyders as God, country and manufacturer intended.
All told, the Weissach package should drop the 918 Spyder's curb weight by some 80 pounds, while also lightening your wallet of an additional $84,000 - the car's MSRP with the Weissach package is $929,000. These prices don't, however, include destination charges, which, for something like the very limited edition 918 Spyder (only 918 will be made), could very well cost considerably more than your average Porsche.
