This 993 is essentially a one owner car. The original owner purchased the car from Herb Chambers with 1,073 miles
on it in April of 1998. It had previously been owned by a woman in Florida. The car currently has 85,000 and the
original owner can no longer drive. I purchased the car from him and we have been through it to make sure
everything is in working order. The car has new brakes, various switches, belts, plugs, caps, rotors, battery,
other typical service parts and assorted rubber pieces that needed to be replaced. We have been over the car
completely cosmetically. It runs great and looks terrific. The original tool kit and jack are with the car although
the compressor to inflate the spare is not original. The top was replaced at one point and is in excellent
condition. The tonneau cover looks like it was never put on until now.
For some I suppose it's only drawback is that it is an automatic. That said, it gets up and goes whether the
transmission kicks down or if you use manual mode. I have put several hundred miles on it and it is a pleasure to
drive. While it looks great and I would say is much better than average for a daily driver of its age, it isn't
perfect. Although the owner does not recall what damage he did to the vehicle the left side, bumpers and hood have
been painted. Under florescent light you can tell the color is different on the left side but outside it is not
noticeable. In looking the car over closely and cleaning it up there is no indication that the damage was much
more than "skin deep." Knowing the gentleman who owned the car who is an absent minded professor type he probably
scraped the side of the car on a pole or the wall of a garage. There are a few door dings on the right side but
only one that is obvious. It has typical chips in the bumpers and other places on the body all of which have been
touched up. There are two stars that were repaired in the windshield. Over all the interior is excellent with two
exceptions. The carpet on the drivers side is a bit worn on the sill and it is worn through in one spot which was
filled in with a piece from elsewhere on the floor. We repaired the seat back bolster on the left side of the
drivers seat and the seats were dyed. I intend to see if I can get all the service records from Herb Chambers so
that whomever purchases the car has full documentation. An original Porsche cover is included. The car comes with
a copy of the original MA title as the owner could not locate the original. It is signed but not filled out for
anyone purchasing the vehicle in a title state.

Porsche 959 Prototype started it all
Wed, 11 Sep 2013While Porsche was unveiling the new Nürburgring-dominating 918 Spyder downstairs in Hall 3 here at the Frankfurt Messe, there was another Porsche supercar quietly and discretely on display upstairs in the same hall. That, of course, was the 959. But not just any 959: this was the original Gruppe B prototype.
The 959 was first developed as a rally car in the early 80s to compete with the likes of the original Audi Sport Quattro S1, Ford RS200 and Lancia Delta S4. But Zuffenhausen soon saw its potential as a production road-going supercar, emerging as a technological marvel to challenge the decidedly linear approach of the Ferrari F40. It still stands as a groundbreaking supercar in its own right, but also lead to the first all-wheel-drive 911 Turbo and set the stage for the Carrera GT and aforementioned 918 Spyder that followed to cap the top of the evolving Porsche range.
This original Gruppe B prototype, which presaged the production 959, packed a 450-horsepower 2.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six into an even sleeker form than the final version that followed. We caught up with it on display as part of a display of 80s German classics, of which this 959 prototype immediately stood out as the pick of the proverbial litter. Check out the hotness in the high-resolution image gallery above.
Porsche Panamera Turbo S vs Ariel Atom Supercharged in unlikely drag battle
Thu, 01 May 2014David versus Goliath battles are always an enticing proposition, because they offer the chance to watch scrappy underdogs take on their bigger rivals. Evo has set up just such a battle with its latest drag race between the minimalist Ariel Atom 3.5 Supercharged (Ariel Atom 3 pictured below) and the plush Porsche Panamera Turbo S.
The two cars couldn't be more different. The Atom personifies Lotus founder Colin Chapman's well-known axiom: "Simplify, then add lightness." Most of the car doesn't even have a body; it's just an exposed frame with a 310 horsepower supercharged Honda four-cylinder mounted behind the driver. On the other side, there's the Panamera Turbo S. In the latest version, it packs 570 hp and 553 pound-feet from its 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 and it features all-wheel drive. Of course, all of that comes with a significant weight penalty.
Off the line, the differences are even more apparent. The Atom doesn't have any of the Porsche's technological wizardry, so launching it challenges the driver to build the revs and let out the clutch just right. The car screams like a banshee as it goes, though. The Porsche is the exact opposite. Its launch control system lets the driver hold down the brake, get on the throttle and accelerate away in just the right way.
Well hello, Carice, you Porsche-aping EV cutie
Wed, Jul 9 2014Ah, the joy that comes open-air motoring with the in your hair and the roar of the exhaust behind you. Well, maybe not as much anymore. In recent years, vehicles like the Tesla Roadster have made the concept of the electric sports car palatable. Now, Dutch automaker Carice is following suit with a classically inspired EV speedster called the MK1. The MK1 clearly wears its design inspiration on its sleeve. It would be difficult to look at this styling and not immediately see a Porsche 356 Speedster; It has the same upside-down bathtub shape with big round headlights and likely the tiniest taillights on a production car in years. The Carice is also clearly meant for fair weather motoring because there's no top, just a tonneau cover to protect the interior from the rain while it's sitting. One thing that the Dutch company is definitely getting right is the weight. It claims that the MK1 weighs a dainty 772 pounds, including the battery pack. The low weight doesn't mean the MK1 is going to be lighting quick, though. It's being offered with a choice of three electric motors with 5 horsepower (for 16-year-old drivers in the Netherlands), 20 hp or 53 hp, and there are two sizes of battery pack. Buyers can also opt for a range-extending internal combustion engine. The 53-hp motor allows for a top speed of 62 miles per hour and a 124-mile range with the larger battery. Carice says its also willing to fit larger batteries or more power motors, at the buyer's expense, of course. Carice plans to build an initial production run of 10 cars with prices starting at 22,000 euros, before Dutch taxes (about $30,000). The company hasn't released a press release about the MK1, but you can learn more about speedster on its website; it's in Dutch, though.
