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.

Porsche 911 Cabriolet refresh may hide new engine

Wed, 22 Jan 2014

If we learned nothing else from our recent frolic through Porsche's secret museum, it's that the automaker goes to incredible lengths to disguise future products during initial testing. Just as a number of cars in that Stuttgart bunker hid the true identity of developmental mules (like the Audi-V8-powered 911), such could very well be the case with these spy shots showing what, on the surface, appears to be simply a facelifted 991 911 Cabriolet.
Similar to what we saw last month on a 911 coupe, this Cabriolet has obvious styling modifications made to the front and rear fascias suggesting that the 911's still-fresh appearance is already set to get a few tweaks. The big news here is at the rear of the car. The additional vents on the lower edge of the fascia and the mocked-up vent above the engine leads our spy photographer to believe that a new engine could be tucked under the body work - likely a smaller-displacement, turbocharged flat-six focusing more on improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions rather than performance.
We last heard rumblings of such a detuned 911 back in August, but could this be our first look at said new model? Have a look for yourself, and let us know what you think - either about this mule specifically or the idea of a "green" 911, in Comments below.

Porsche gives Nick Murray exactly what he deserved [w/video]

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

The tale of Nick Murray and his lemon Porsche 911 appears to have come to a satisfactory end. As noted in the original story about Murray, he and Porsche Cars North America met and came to a resolution. However, we didn't know exactly what that meant, until now.
Murray has created a new video explaining that PCNA offered to buy back the car at full price or give him an exact replacement for it. This was exactly what he was asking for. Murray remains pro-Porsche in the new video. "I am definitely considering reordering a Porsche 911," he says.
Porsche also posted a message on its Facebook page that clarified the situation. "We at Porsche have always sought excellence in all that we do. We know you expect it of us. And when we don't meet that standard, we make every effort to improve," said a portion of the note.

Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year

Thu, 14 Nov 2013

Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
