Classic Motoring is pleased to offer this very attractive 2001 Porsche 911 (996) Carrera 2 Cabriolet. This low mileage 911 looks great in Orient Red (L8A3) with Savannah Beige interior, black convertible top and highly desirable matching factory hard top. Original options include:
  • 139/340 Heated Seats
  • 413 18” Turbo Look Wheels
  • 446 Colored Crest center caps
  • 476 PSM Stability Management

This documented two-owner car was purchased by the 2nd owner from a Porsche dealer as a CPO car. Since he passed away the car remained within the same family. It has seen very light use in the last two years, the current keepers taking it on occasional light drives to keep everything working well. The car drives well with no issues - brakes and clutch are strong and the car performs exceptionally well. It is totally stock and has never been modified.

This 996 is in great cosmetic and mechanical condition with nice paint all around and a very clean interior. There has been no accident damage, though the front bumper was professionally resprayed (by a concours restoration shop) to correct some scuffs. The bumper, front decklid and mirrors are protected with clear laminate. Inside, the leather interior is in very good condition. Only a few scratches on the center console and a GPS mount on the dash detract from the otherwise tidy and well-kept cockpit. The convertible top is in excellent condition as is the factory hard top. Wheels, tires and trim are excellent and there are no leaks or drips from the engine. Books/Tools/Manuals included in the sale.
 
Pluses:

  • Beautiful Orient Red Paint
  • Desirable Factory Hard top
  • 2-family owner car, previously purchased via Porsche CPO program
  • No Winters
  • Clean carfax
  • 6-speed manual gearbox
  • Excellent Continental tires
  • Only 32,861 Miles

 
Minuses:

  • Light recent use, would benefit from a full fluid service
  • Touched up scratch on rear deck lid
  • Center console compartment latch needs repair
  • Some scuffs in the finish on the center console

Overall this is a very fine #2 condition car that is ready to find a new home. The addition of the hard top makes this a great all-weather GT car ready for you to stack on the miles as you wish. It is currently located in Vermont and will be sold with a current VT registration and title.

Some intriguing showstoppers from Auto China 2024

Sat, May 4 2024

“Electric” may be the most appropriate word to describe the atmosphere at the recent Beijing motor show, now considered to be one of the worldÂ’s largest automobile exhibitions. ChinaÂ’s vision of the electric mobility future is on full display during the ten-day event, which ends this weekend. Organizers estimated that 117 new global and China-domestic models would debut in Beijing. In fact, about 30 foreign brands had stands, a turnout that hasnÂ’t been seen at auto shows since before the pandemic. The South Koreans and the Japanese came, and from Germany, representatives making the case for their brands included CEO Oliver Blume of Volkswagen Group, Oliver Zipse of BMW Group and Ola Kallenius of Mercedes-Benz Group. A few of the models would be powered by gasoline—by ICE, or internal combustion engines—but the vibe was clear: electrics are it. According to to show officials, Beijing hosted a total of 278 electric and plug-in hybrid models on display. After digesting most of the reveals unveiled during the show, weÂ’ve parsed a list to a select few of the more interesting models. Here it is, in no particular order: BYD Ocean-M concept BYD has launched off-roaders, SUVs and sedans in its global assault on the car market — and added a hot hatch concept at Auto China. The Ocean-M (above) is a Volkswagen Golf-sized five-door hatchback, meaning itÂ’s likely that BYD will pitch it as a rival for the Volkswagen ID.3 GTX. The show car has sporty design, rises sharply towards the rear window, and sharp surfacing at the front and along the flanks. The show car has a huge rear wing, aero diffuser and side blades.   Denza Z9GT BYDÂ’s luxury brand, Denza, a joint venture between BYD and Mercedes-Benz, showed the Z9 GT, a massive wagon carrying three electric motors putting out a stunning 952 horsepower. The EV weighs an extraordinary 6,338 pounds, almost 440 pounds more than a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. BYD's design boss is a German -- Wolfgang Egger, who previously worked for Alfa Romeo and Audi. Lamborghini Urus SE The Volkswagen subsidiary brought a bit of Italian sex appeal to Beijing in the form of “super” luxury SUV that received its first public premiere in China. The plug-in hybrid Uris SE SUV gets nearly 800 horsepower as well as a series of visual and technology updates inside and out.

Pininfarina teases its Tesla- and Bugatti-baiting EV supercar

Tue, Jul 10 2018

Pininfarina isn't being bashful when it comes to getting into the car business. The Italian design house has revealed a sketch of the PF0 Concept, an electric supercar aimed directly at the world's fastest and most expensive vehicles. With upward of 1,000 horsepower, along with an expected price in the millions of dollars, this extreme EV is meant as a calling card for Pininfarina's upcoming range of electric cars and SUVs. So should the likes of Tesla, Porsche, Ferrari, Bugatti and Lamborghini be worried? Pininfarina might be new to building its own cars, but the company has many decades of experience designing and engineering some of the most desirable cars of all time — including many of the finest supercars to have worn a Ferrari badge on their nose. As we reported earlier this year, Pininfarina has teamed with Indian auto manufacturer, Mahindra, to develop a range of high-end EVs. With this roughly $500 million investment, not to mention some engineering help from Croatian supercar manufacturer, Rimac, Pininfarina aims to start high. The company will first introduce a hypercar, based on the PF0 Concept, within two years, then bring along a range of more affordable electric cars and SUVs. These will more directly take on the likes of Porsche Cayenne, Lamborghini Urus, and Tesla Model X. So yes, if you're in the business of building expensive cars, especially ones with a lot of batteries positioned inside them, Pininfarina's plans for the PF0 (that's a zero, not the letter "O," by the way) should make you sit up and take notice. "Automobili Pininfarina is a pioneering new business created to service the most discerning clients in the world," said Michael Perschke, CEO for Automobili Pininfarina. "Our product portfolio will launch with an innovative, zero-emissions hypercar that represents the progression we aim to make at the pinnacle of the luxury and sports car market." According to its press release, Pininfarina is currently presenting its "business and product plans to prospective retailer partners, clients and media in New York this week." After its tour of the Big Apple, look for Pininfarina to officially reveal the PF0 Concept during Monterey Car Week in August.

The pre-race and first in-race report from Le Mans

Sat, 22 Jun 2013

The 2013, 90th anniversary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans has begun, tragedy marking the opening laps with the death of Allan Simonsen. We're at the track now as a guest of Audi and plan to stay through the evening, and even we haven't been able to find out what caused the accident - the only video is from just after the incident, and beyond the statement from ACO there's been no more news. The Aston Martin in the LM GTE Am class and its all-Danish drivers had taken pole in its class and was one of the favorites to win.
The pre-race report will come first, and even thought we can't spoil the race because we're only five hours into it at the time of writing, we'll put all of the news at the end in case you don't even want the updates.
Or you can go straight to the high-res galleries above.
