    A very clean, adult owned and driven 911 with only slight modifications. Standard exhaust has been changed to a Fabspeed stainless system to eliminate the Porsche high pitched sewing machine exhaust tone. The heat and air conditioning controls have been moved to accommodate a Kenwood Navigation system with voice/Bluetooth/HD Radio/Video/iPod which looks built in. The clutch has just been replaced, as have the tires. The car has been serviced regularly and has no mechanical problems. I can put you in touch with my mechanic for reference. 

    It was involved in a very minor stoplight accident with under 2K damage, mostly because I wanted anything even vaguely damaged replaced to be sure everything is fine. There are a couple of minor scratches and dents. There are no side bumpers on Porsches so if you drive them at all, you'll get these. There are pictures of the two, which don't even show up well in the pictures. The lever to open the trunk on the driver's side door sill also has some scratches from getting into and out of the car. It has an especially made umbrella fitted into the passenger side door sill. Door sills are stainless steel, another option. 
    I am the second owner. Traded in a Boxster S for this 911 because I didn't fit in the Boxster. But I rarely drive this car and my wife won't drive a 6 speed so we're selling to get an automatic "something" that she can drive when the need arises. It is what she calls a "sunday car". It has been rained on twice since I've owned it. It has not seen snow or salt. Mostly it lives in a garage.
    The removable hardtop gives you kind of coupe/convertible versatility. I have the top on a cradle that is attached to the roof of my garage (the cradle will go with the car). In the winter or hot summer, The top goes on, which makes it quieter. It is two levers and an front latch, about a ten minute job, easy to do with the cradle, but you'd need two people without it. 
    The car has actually been much more reliable then I thought it would be. This is a 996 if you're into Porsches, the first year the water cooled flavor was imported into the United States, the second year of this model. We moved and I'm still looking for the original window sticker but a dealer can pull it up from the VIN. This car was $86,000 new.
    I will insist on a cashier's check that is verified by my bank in advance, so save any games. I want this to go to a good home. I have the title and it has no liens. I am interested in a cash sale only, no trades or financing. 
   Please let me know if you would like any information I have not included.

Audi CEO says brand's EVs are almost as profitable as its other cars

Mon, Oct 4 2021

After, oh, a hundred years or so of building vehicles primarily powered by internal combustion engines, automakers around the world have been and still are pumping billions of dollars into the development of electric vehicle technology. Everything from platforms and batteries to motors and the software to control it all requires untold hours of development, and that takes time and money. Fortunately, it's not going to take long for that massive investment to start paying off, at least according to Audi CEO Markus Duesmann, who told Reuters in an interview that "The point where we earn as much money with electric cars as with combustion engine cars is now, or ... next year, 2023. They are very even now, the prices." As a brand, Audi contributed more than a quarter of overall profit for the massive Volkswagen Group, which has such powerhouse brands as Volkswagen and Porsche among others. Under the Audi umbrella are Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati, and it seems those high-end branches aren't going anywhere, at least for now. "These brands ... are very valuable very profitable brands, where we can even expand the synergy level in the future," Duesmann said in the interview. "There are no plans whatsoever to get rid of them." Despite the overall profitability of the brand, the ongoing global chip crisis is causing headaches. "We had a very strong first half in 2021. We do expect a much weaker second half," said Duesmann, who added, "We really have trouble." In fact, so serious is the trouble that the brand is forced into "a day-to-day troubleshooting process" to limit the chip-shortage damage. The good news for the automaker is that Audi has been able to boost its profit margin from 8% prior to the pandemic in 2019 to 10.7% in the first half of 2021. The bad news is that various chip shortages aren't expected to get a whole lot better over the rest of the year. Related video:

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers

Sun, Oct 8 2017

Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?

Porsche Panamera gets new diesel in time for Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Diesel may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Porsche, but in the European market - that vital one which Porsche calls home - diesels are indispensable. Particularly when you're trying to extend beyond niche sports cars and into the mainstream luxury sedan market as Zuffenhausen has with the Panamera. In fact, diesels account for 15 percent of Panamera sales worldwide (even though they're not offered Stateside), so to keep oil-burning customers happy, Porsche has announced a series of upgrades.
Set to be unveiled in the flesh at the fast-approaching Frankfurt Motor Show, the new Panamera Diesel packs 300 horsepower. That's 50 hp (or 20 percent) more than the model it replaces, significantly dropping the 0-62 sprint from 6.8 seconds to 6 flat, and raising top speed from 152 miles per Autobahn-crunching hour to 161. While they were at it, Porsche's engineers also fitted the rear differential with torque vectoring (previously reserved for gasoline-burning models) and retuned the transmission and suspension.
You can delve into the press release below for all the details - including the new model's improved towing capacity! - but the reality, for better or worse, is that the Panamera Diesel isn't offered here. So if you've been celebrating Labor Day (or even Labour Day, for our friends to the north) like we have, don't go looking for it at your local dealer, who will have only a Cayenne Diesel to show you instead.
