1999 Porsche Cabriolet Tiptronict: No Reserve High Bid Buys The Car on 2040-cars
Gainesville, Georgia, United States
Being offered for sale is a 1999 Porsche 996 cabriolet. This car is in great condition and the interior and exterior do not show any signs of the car's mileage. The interior and convertible top are in great condition as well as the body. The car has a clean carfax history.
The car has a vibration in the engine and I do not wish to repair it, and would rather sell it as is. The issue was thought to be the clutch, but after having it removed and inspected, only to find nothing wrong, the vibration was not remedied. The reason for the vibration is unknown, though it is only apparent at higher engine RPMs above 4,500 RPM and not at all at idle or at lower speeds. This would be a great car for someone to learn on, or just buy a used engine and throw into the car. I'm trying to be honest and let everyone know about the issue. It could be an easy fix but I don't have the time or resources to address it. Again, the car runs/drives just fine, but there is a slight vibration when above 4500 RPM. I drove the car today to the car wash and noticed the battery was not taking a charge. The voltage gauge indicates the alternator is working, thus I suspect the battery to be bad. The issues with the car very well might be a bad (shorted) battery. I was told this by a "shade tree" mechanic. I'm tired of dealing with it. My loss can be your gain.

1950s car ads are timeless
Sat, Aug 8 2015Usually around the Super Bowl a few great car commercials show up, but for the most part auto ads today pale in comparison to the '1950s and '60s. In an era with a truly viable magazine industry, automakers would take out gorgeous full-page spreads to get the word out about their wares. It was also a time when imports were just hitting the US, and there was a boom in sports cars. Car and Driver has gone for a dig into its advertising archives from when the book was known as Sports Cars Illustrated for a truly great viewing experience. You can imagine a young Don Draper mulling over the copy for these ads, but some of it is laughably quaint today. For example, there's a great image of a driver whipping an Austin-Healey 100 around a track. The italicized red text proudly proclaims, "From 0 to 60 MPH in 10.5 seconds." One of the beautiful parts about these advertisements is that you seldom see photos of the cars. Instead, there are often detailed drawings that slightly distort the vehicles' lines. With this approach, the Porsche 356 ends up looking far more curvaceous than in real life. Plus, the front end of the Chrysler 300 looks large enough to land a helicopter on. The whole thing is worth scrolling through. There are some fascinating glimpses into auto history like an ad for Abarth exhausts before the brand was just known for tuning Fiats.

Porsche 918 Spyder debuts with new N"urburgring lap record [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013It's been a long time in the making, but Porsche has finally revealed the final production version of its long-awaited 918 Spyder here at the Frankfurt Motor Show. And yet that's not even the big news surrounding the hybrid hypercar.
No, the big news is that, while Porsche was preparing taking the wraps off the car here in Frankfurt, elsewhere in Germany a team was setting a blistering lap time at the Nürburgring. And not just any blistering lap time, but a new world record.
Porsche claims that, on the morning of September 4, a team of three drivers (including former rally champ Walter Röhrl and Porsche test drivers Timo Kluck and Marc Lieb) broke the Nordschleife lap record, Lieb finally setting the best time at 6:57 at an average of 111 miles per hour.
Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.
