1999 PORSCHE 911 996 CARRERA 2 
3.4L H6 ENGINE, 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION, 105,000 MILES

Up for auction with NO RESERVE, is my '99 Porsche 911.    Payment is due in cash or verified cashiers check from a Major bank.   Text me or Call me if you have any questions 859-803-0858 or email me through ebay.  

The Engine runs great, sounds good.  Just had it in for maintenence, new oil change w/ filter, and had everything checked out, plugs pulled, K&N filter cleaned, diagnostic test,  it passed with flying colors.  It does have a slight oil leak, what porsche doesn't, nature of the h6 engine, I guess.  It's not from rear main or ims bearing, they were done in 09, mechanic says its valve covers, and something else I cant remember, but his recommendation was, the repair cost don't warrant the replacement for the tiny amount of oil I'm losing, and it never drips, its just residue.

The Transmission is good.  It has a short throw shift kit installed by previous owner, not a cheap one either, I have receipts.  It also has the GT3 shift knob. It's a 6-speed trans, all gears are good.  Clutch is good.  It was replaced by the original owner, with light weight flywheel, you can tell when you shift.

The Drivetrain is good.  It rides good.  Shocks seem good, suspension all seems tight to me.  The tires have good tread.  I just had the front brakes and slotted rotors replaced.  I went with original equipment.  Rear brakes are perfect, E-brake holds great, rotors look brand new.  It has a slight vibration at 80 mph on the dot.  85 mph and its back to normal all the way to 150 mph , that's as fast as I have had it.  Below 80 mph it's fine, very weird.  I dont know if some of the sticky weights have fallen off or something, I havent looked.

The Interior is near perfect.  9/10 for sure.  The seats are in great condition.  The carpets are perfect,  It has brand new Carrera logo floormats.  A/C is ice cold.  Dash, door panels, etc......all unscratched and in very good condition.  The leather on the seats is great, only just starting to show a tiny amount of wear, if any at all.  It has a middle console that matches the shift knob, door handles and exterior of the car, very nice.  Has a GT3 shift knob.  The stereo was upgraded by previous owner, he put in 4000.00 to sound system.  He kept his head unit, but everything else he left behind, it has it all, JL 8" subs, amp, crossover, JL audio speakers throughout, it sounds great.  Everything works except Cruise control, common 996 issue, and the previous owner told me that it has never worked.

The Exterior is great.  7.5/10. The paint shows very nice.  It has 3 scratches.  2 on hood.  and 1 on front fender, not very noticeable.  It has a couple chips.  It has 2 door dings on driver quarter panel, you would not seem them unless I pointed them out.  The underside is in good shape, no rust.  No accidents.  All original paint. Wheels are in good shape.  Glass is good.  Has tinted windows.

Mark Webber gets early clearance for Porsche departure

Thu, 28 Nov 2013

If there's no rest for the wicked, there's surely even less rest for the wickedly fast. And make no mistake about it, Mark Webber is wickedly fast. He may not have proven able (or given the opportunity, depending on who you ask) to emerge from Sebastian Vettel's shadow after six seasons partnered with the multiple world champion at Red Bull Racing, but he's still won nine Formula One grands prix, to say nothing of the sports car races he won with Mercedes in the late 90s. But now he's leaving F1 to anchor Porsche's new LMP1 program, and according to the latest reports, he's departing Red Bull for Porsche sooner than expected.
Typically an F1 driver is obliged to stay with his team until the end of the calendar year - not just the end of the racing season - helping out with things like promotional events and fine-tuning next year's car. But news.com.au reports that Red Bull has given him early leave, so once the racing action in Brazil is done on Sunday, he's departing straight for Porsche's racing headquarters in Wiessach, Germany.
It won't be Webber's first visit to the facility, having already swung by to have his new seat fitted. But his early arrival will undoubtedly help him and Porsche get up and running ahead of schedule. The move may have been facilitated by a new sponsorship deal that could see Webber carry Red Bull with him to Le Mans, so don't be too surprised to see the energy drink company's logo on the side of the new Porsche once the new racing season gets under way next year, whether in concert with or instead of the anticipated revival of the Martini Racing livery.

China bans military license plates on luxury autos

Wed, 01 May 2013

Driving a vehicle with a military license plate in China provides many privileges. Legally reserved for official vehicles only, the designation apparently allows drivers to enjoy special liberties on the roads, including breaking traffic laws, filling up with free fuel and receiving light-and-siren escorts through congested cities. So attractive are the benefits that there is a secondary market for used legal and counterfeit plates - especially among those wealthy enough to afford luxury cars. But all of that is reportedly coming to an end, as President Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission, is on a mission to fight corruption in his country.
A new license plate system goes into effect today, and it is designed to "maintain social harmony, stability and the reputation of the military," says the PLA Daily, the armed forces' official newspaper. While the abuse has been going on for many years, the internet has put the spotlight on the bad behavior, and the negative press does not represent the morals and true colors of the armed forces, say officials.
While military-plated Porsche drivers have been singled out as offenders, Bloomberg notes that all vehicles with engine displacements above 3.0 liters and with a sticker price in excess of about $73,000, will be banned from receiving military plates. This includes vehicles from Audi, Cadillac, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln and the Volkswagen Phaeton. Even if drivers are savvy enough to circumvent the new issuing system, the military has put technology at toll gates to catch users of counterfeit plates. There has been no word on the punishment if caught.

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche 911 hybrid possible, Ecocruise EVs coming soon

Thu, Oct 9 2014

The next-generation Porsche 911 could use hybrid power, according to Porsche CEO Matthias Muller. "There is no reason against it and we will see if we have some reasons to do it," Muller says of the model due around 2018. He also suggests that hybrid technology could eventually make its way into all Porsche model lines, but that the Boxster and Cayman would first get four-cylinder versions. Muller cites carbon emissions and "sportiness" as reasons to use hybrid power, pointing to the 918 Spyder as a good example of both. Read more at Car Advice. A B-Class F-Cell from the Mercedes-Benz fleet has hit a benchmark of 300,000 kilometers (about 186,411 miles) in everyday use. The achievement won Daimler an "f-cell award" for hydrogen fuel cell technology and innovation. The 300+ fuel cell cars in the Daimler fleet have driven a collective 9 million-plus kilometers (more than 5.5 million miles). The information gathered from this testing is being used to improve development as the company looks toward expanding commercialization of fuel cell cars. "We have clearly demonstrated that the fuel cell electric drive is ready for the road," says Professor Herbert Kohler of Daimler. "The last hurdles we will overcome in intensive cross-industry and cross-border teamwork." Read more in the press release below. A company called Ecocruise has new EVs coming out soon. Along with electric scooters and service vehicles, Ecocruise develops street-legal neighborhood electric vehicles like the three-wheeled EZip-3, the four-wheeled EZip-4, and the fun looking Cruser Sport (see a prototype in the video below). The EVs are scheduled to go on sale in January of 2015, which is right around the corner. Ecocruise was started after the founder of Kasea Motorsports decided to switch to electric vehicles with the goal of offering providing affordable emissions-free driving. Learn more about Ecocruise and its vehicles at the company's website. The new EU Fuel Quality Directive (FQD) does little to discourage dirty fuels like tar sands and coal-to-liquid, says Transport & Environment (T&E). The FQD requires suppliers to reduce greenhouse gas intensity for transport fuel in the EU by six percent by 2020. The much-delayed FQD doesn't do as much as it could, though, say critics, and it doesn't label dirtier fuel sources as such despite the urging of scientists. T&E, an organization focused on cleaning up EU transport, blames Canada, the US and Big Oil.
