1988 Porsche 911 3.2 Cabriolet Black/tan G-50 Transmission 173k Miles Original on 2040-cars
Nashville, Tennessee, United States
1988 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA G50 CABRIOLET BLACK/TAN LEATHER EXCEPTIONALLY WELL MAINTAINED SAME OWNER FOR PAST 14 YEARS 3-OWNER VEHICLE ALL BOOKS AND RECORDS + ORIGINAL WINDOW STICKER I have owned this awesome 1988 Porsche Carrera Cabriolet since 2000 and am the third owner. The vehicle was originally licensed in Tennessee in August, 1988 and then moved to California in 1995. I purchased this Carrera in Southern California from a private seller in 2000 with 53,000 miles and have used it as my daily driver ever since. I moved the car to the San Francisco Bay Area when I bought it and then shipped the car back to its original home of Nashville, Tennessee when I coincidentally moved there in 2008. Over the past 3 years I have used it less frequently and have decided it needs another great home. I purchased this car in 2000 after an exhaustive search of 1988-1989 Carreras on the market at that time. I met with the then-current owner as well as the original owner and visited the dealership where the vehicle had been serviced throughout the majority of its life. This is an original, unmolested 1988 Porsche Carrera that has been very properly maintained for all of its 173,000 miles - it runs and drives like new. The interior is only slightly worn, better than you may expect for a 26 year old Porsche. The cabriolet top and rear plastic window were replaced in 2009 and items of regular wear and tear have been replaced as needed (rear tail lights, front fog light lenses, horn, tires, brakes, etc.) with no expense ever spared. In 2012 I decided to address the stone chips on the hood and front bumper that accumulated over time and had the entire car (with exception of driver side door) repainted by the top body shop in Nashville. All service history can be verified and validated by the two shops (one in San Francisco and one in Nashville) that have worked on the vehicle since I have owned it. I am happy to share more about the vehicle with serious parties. (615) 335-6800 OR EMAIL ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS OR FOR MORE INFORMATION. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY, NO LOWBALL OFFERS |

Magnus Walker drives 911 Turbos old and new
Wed, Mar 25 2015It's been forty years now since Porsche released the original 911 Turbo. And as many things that have remained a constant, a lot has changed, too: the engine has gone from air-cooled to liquid, moved up to nearly a midships layout, and drives almost exactly double the original's output to all four wheels instead of just the back set through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission instead of a five-speed manual. It'll also reach highway speeds about twice as fast as the original. That's progress for you, and who better to compare Porsche Turbos old and new than Magnus Walker. The outlaw of the 911 scene may not look the part, but to those in the know, he's got the last word when it comes to Porsches. After searching for some time, Walker recently got his hands on a cherry of an original 930 Turbo from 1975 – the first year it was made – and had it shipped from Australia to California to add to his collection. eGarage caught up with Walker and brought along a new 991 Turbo for juxtaposition. Fortunately it also brought along a video camera or two to document the experience, so check it out in the latest video above.
Singer Porsche, Koenigsegg, NSX: Leno's life doesn't suck
Tue, Oct 6 2015Jay Leno had quite a productive trip this year during Monterey Car Week. Not only did he get to pal around with Ian Callum and check out the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but the denim-clad comedian also headed to The Quail to talk to some prominent figures in the modern sports car scene. Capping off the fun, he got to take a drive in a Mercedes-AMG GT S, too Perhaps the highlight of this show is a nearly 10-minute interview with Christian von Koenigsegg. The founder of the Swedish hypercar company digs deep into the Agera One:1's engineering details, relating interesting facts about the aerodynamics and transmission. In addition, Leno chats with Rob Dickenson of Singer about its newly reimagined Porsche 911 Targa, and he gets the latest scoop on the Acura NSX's progress from newly promoted Acura Vice President and General Manager Jon Ikeda. If you like hearing about the nuts and bolts of sports car development, then this video can't be missed. Of course, we were there at Monterey, too, and we pointed our own cameras at some of the amazing machinery, both vintage and modern, at all the various car-focused events of the week. Take a look back at some of our own cool footage in the videos below. Related Video:
These three automotive Lego kits deserve your suppoort
Sat, Mar 25 2017Lego has been quite good to car enthusiasts over the past few years. We've seen traditional kits for the classic VW Microbus, Mini Cooper, and the Caterham 620R, as well as an elaborate Technic kit for the 911 GT3 RS. But why stop there? The Lego Ideas page, which allows users to submit ideas with the chance to see their kits reach production, has many more cool car kits we'd love to see. Check them out below, and be sure to log on to vote for them. If a submission hits 10,000 votes, it is considered for production. That's how we got that Caterham kit, so it's worth your time to show your support. Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 This is a submission aimed at becoming one of Lego's Speed Champions kits. These are very small mini-figure scale car models, and the series has included the Ford GT, Audi R18 Le Mans racer, and more. This kit features a tiny version of the Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, a Group B rally racer that gave Peugeot World Rally Championship titles two years in a row. The kit has a well-executed version of the car and its massive rear spoiler on the hatch. It also comes with a big dirt crest for it to fly over, along with amazed spectators on the sidelines. Porsche 911 Turbo 930 We love the GT3 RS Lego kit, but we think it's a little lonely as the only Porsche kit available. Such an impressive Porsche deserves an impressive companion, like this 911 Turbo. It's the 930 version, which is arguably the most famous classic 911 with its turbocharged power, whale-tail wing, and scary driving dynamics thanks to considerable turbo lag and rear-engine handling characteristics. This model is quite large at 1:10 scale, and comes with a detailed interior and exterior. The best part is the remote-control components underneath that allow the car to be driven. Jeep Wrangler JK Moving off the beaten path again, we have this highly detailed Wrangler kit. Actually, we have two kits, as the creator designed both two-door and four-door versions. They both feature removable hard tops, detailed interiors, and big tires. They also come with an assortment of off-road accessories such as auxiliary lights, an off-road jack, winch, gas can, roof rack, and off-road bumper. You can also find various fluid reservoirs and engine details under the opening hood.
