1989 Porsche Carrera 911 on 2040-cars
Reedville, Virginia, United States
|
My ’89 Carrera is up for sale simply because I have no more room and have purchased another vehicle. I purchased this vehicle in 2010 from a broker in Connecticut who was representing a collector. Since my ownership, the vehicle has had annual oil service, state inspections, and has run flawlessly. Vehicle came with a considerable amount of documented service history which I will pass onto winning bidder. With the exception of a crack in the dashboard (photo attached) there are no dents, scrapes dings or any other defects with this vehicle. Vehicle does exhibit normal wear, and is being sold “as is”. I had planned to convert car to the “yellowbird” look and installed the rear bumper. I abandoned the project and never installed the front bumper. I have the front bumper and the original rear bumper with side skirts that I will include with the sale of vehicle. The Carfax report shows an accident in 2008. I investigated the incident, and discussed it with the mechanical shop that performed most of the repairs and service on the vehicle. They assured me it was a minor incident related to another vehicle sliding on ice at slow speed into the car. As this establishment enjoys a very good reputation, I have no doubt it was indeed as they have stated. Furthermore, when I had the vehicle repainted, the accident area in question was discovered, and it appeared to be no more than maybe 2x4 inches in area. Paint refresh was performed by a local custom shop known for their attention to detail and they enjoy an outstanding reputation. All trim was removed, car was wet sanded, and all visible jambs, bonnet and engine bay were painted. Look at the pictures and you can see the quality of their work. Upgrades to vehicle include the turbo tie-rods, turbo front valance, fog lights, stainless steel sport muffler, Pioneer AM/FM/CD, Polk speakers, Sirius and Ipod connection. Tires are Toyo Proxis with 80 percent tread life remaining, with the larger 9 x 16 wheels on the back. Car has a certificate of Authenticity from Porsche. This car is the real deal, no stories, no excuses. |

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

Le Mans-winning Porsche 935 K3 'seized' by DEA agents
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Porsche has won Le Mans more than any other marque, but only one of those overall race winners was actually based on a 911. That was the 1979 Porsche 935 K3, chassis number 009 00015 that was entered by brothers Don and Bill Whittington. It went on to win at the Nürburgring and Watkins Glen, and scored podium finishes at Sebring and Brands Hatch as well. In short, it's a historically significant and hugely valuable piece of motorsport history. And it was just seized by the DEA. Sorta.
After the Whittington brothers ran afoul of a handful of lawsuits and were implicated in smuggling narcotics, the car changed hands a few times before ending up in the noted collection of one Bruce Meyers. He had it at Laguna Seca earlier this month when a black Suburban, Dodge Charger and transporter truck pulled up with government plates, asked to speak with Meyer, presented him with a court order, loaded the car onto the truck and drove off.
Though familiar with the legal disputes surrounding the ownership of the car and the misdeeds of its famous original owners, Meyer was left understandably distraught over the events that had just unfolded in front of him to separate him from his pride and joy. (Or one of them, anyway; Bruce has got an eminently desirable collection of classic cars.) But here's the kicker: those DEA agents weren't actual DEA agents. Fortunately they weren't thieves, either. The actual story could have been the plot right out of Ocean's 14 if they ever made one and it focused on classic cars. (Is anyone in Hollywood listening?)
