This Carrera Cabriolet is referred to as the 996 series made from 1998 to 2004, the first of the water cooled 911s.
It comes with a removable hard top with rollable stand which is rare at it gives the car a totally different look
with the hard top. Two cars in one. Note some pictures have the top and some do not. This is one of the cleanest
Porches you have ever seen. Interior, exterior and engine look as if it has just come off the show room floor. Just
18,946 miles. As some may know this year’s 996 had a problem with the intermediate shaft bearing. This car had
the $2,200 fix and I can provide a copy of the paid invoice showing it was fixed as well as all servicing records.
If anyone has heard of this problem I suggest they read a certain article titled, "How To Own A Ridiculously Cheap
And Reliable Porsche 911". To find it google the entire title and it is the first article that shows up. It is
about how these cars are a “ridiculously” good deal especially when the fixes when done early like this one.
The color is also a rare one - pastel yellow. Pictures aren’t doing it justice. It has all leather seats.
Attached a copy of the spec sheet showing all the extras that went along with it as well as the window sticker.
I am selling this for my dad who was the third owner of it. He is 80 and it is just too hard for him to get in and
out of it so he hardly drove it the last 2.5 years he owned it. It is one of four cars he owns. My brother and I
joke this was his favorite son as it got better care than we did. There are no issues, no accidents. Current on all
service.
Comes with too many features to mention them all. Zoom in the spec picture if you can to see the details. Not shown
in the spec sheet is the aftermarket phone system called Parrot my dad had installed. Also, comes with $2,000 worth
of fitted Porsche luggage as seen in one of the pictures as well as all the service records. The air is ice cold.
Clean Carfax, comes with all the keys, manuals, heated seats. Wheels are mint. Comes with an indoor AND an outdoor
cover. Always garaged. If you want me to take pictures from a certain angle or underneath car, just let me know.
This is a truly rare special car and whoever gets it will be getting a bargain.

Porsche 911 GT3 Cup ANDIAL Edition First Drive

Mon, Dec 15 2014

There is only one Porsche 911 GT3 Cup ANDIAL Edition on the planet, and its owner is standing patiently in the hot pits at Oklahoma's Hallett Motor Racing Circuit, watching attentively as his prized possession circles the challenging road course at speed. I'm the lucky soul strapped firmly in the cockpit of the white-and-blue racecar. The tight carbon-fiber seat is cutting into my hips, the racket from the gearbox is making me deaf and a river of sweat is flowing off the tip my nose – blame the high ambient temperatures combined with the stress of driving someone else's expensive machine on an utterly unfamiliar circuit. But don't expect me to complain, gripe or come into the pits early, as I'm having the time of my life – I've eagerly waited nearly half-a-year for this moment, and short of me blacking out, there's no way I'm cutting it short. It's been said that ANDIAL-prepared cars and engines have claimed victories on every major racetrack in this country. Belting into the driver's seat of an ANDIAL-prepared Porsche fulfills a personal dream that started decades earlier when I thumbtacked a picture of a white Porsche 935 on my dorm room wall, its colorful bodywork stenciled with "ANDIAL" along the bottom of the driver's door. In the 1980s, the name of the privately held racing company was synonymous with Porsche and victory – it's been said that ANDIAL-prepared cars and engines have claimed victories on every major racetrack in this country. As its founders retired and the company focused on smaller specialty projects, ANDIAL's business model changed, but its relationship with Porsche remained strong. In early 2013, it was announced that the Porsche Motorsports North America, Inc. (PMNA) had purchased the brand – yet there was still no word as to how the famed ANDIAL name, an anagram made from the names of the founding members – the late Arnold Wagner (AN), Dieter Inzenhofer (DI) and former PMNA president and current consultant Alwin Springer (AL) would be used. Some answers emerged in February of this year when I received a phone call from Porsche. The company offered to have me to visit ANDIAL's shop in Southern California, which is now operating entirely under the direction of PMNA. Entering one of the shop's bays, I found myself face-to-face with a lightly used 997 GT3 Cup racecar. The vehicle was in the early stages of a complete teardown and rebuild – in preparation for its rollout in traditional red, white and blue ANDIAL livery.

Chris Harris hits the track with the Porsche Cayman GT4

Wed, Mar 11 2015

The Porsche Cayman GT4 offers the first legitimate chance for Porsche's more compact coupe to really step out of the long shadow of its brother the 911. By placing the 385-horsepower Carrera S engine into the center of a Cayman and sweetening the package with a ton of truly high performance parts, the model can now really show off. The ever-enthusiastic Chris Harris puts on quite a display behind the wheel of the German brand's latest hardcore creation. As is his wont, Harris slides the GT4 all over the Portimao circuit with little wisps of smoke wafting up from its rear Michelin tires. However, what he gets really excited about is Porsche's decision to fit a real manual gearbox, rather than the PDKs rapidly taking over the company's highest performance vehicles. For anyone who loves seeing a sports car's oily bits, stay tuned all the way through because after hooning around for awhile, Harris puts the model up on a lift to find out what's so special. Porsche touts the GT4's 911 GT3-derivied front suspension, but this really shows just how many mechanical adjustments it offers the demanding driver. Related Video:

Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

An Iconic Sports Car, Restored to Seduce
I have been strapped behind the iconic Momo Prototipo steering wheel for a little more than an hour, all windows down as I carve my way up a rugged canyon during an unusually warm Southern California evening, and I am overwhelmed with emotion. My heart is pounding out of my chest, my breathing is heavy and my palms are sweaty because I am completely absorbed by this wondrous machine.
After waiting patiently for nearly four years, I am finally behind the wheel of a classic Porsche 911 restored, modified and tuned by Singer Vehicle Design. The vehicle that surrounds me never rolled off an automaker's assembly line in its current configuration, yet its physical appearance is timeless, build quality breathtaking and driving dynamics peerless.
