*RE-LISTED WITH MORE DETAIL AND PRICE REDUCED
You are looking at a marvelous 2001 Porsche 911 (996) All-Wheel-Drive, 6 Speed Manual Twin Turbo in Lapis Blue
Metallic with supple leather Graphite Grey interior. This Porsche has Recaro memory heated seats (Logo on
headrest), small carbon fiber package, Navigation, Porsche Stability Management System (PSM), Suede headliner, GT2
facelift front bumper, and highway driven very low 52,714 miles. Also included are factory installed Valentine-One
radar detector (built into rearview mirror) and laser diffuser (LED indicators next to hazard lights). As you can
see from the original window sticker, this car was driven off the Manhattan show room at the time for $122,705, and
I am the 3rd owner. This car is in used condition with a few (about 4) small dings (I can refer a paintless dent
removal guy) and a few chips on the windshield. I haven't replace the windshield, because as they mention on the
forums, this glass is installed by a precision robot, so if the chips are not distracting (they aren't to me), and
pass inspection (which this does with flying colors), don't replace it. Nevertheless, this is a head turner and
without doubt, the fastest car I have ever owned.
You won't be disappointed and will not find any Porsche Turbo within this asking price range.
*This car is in USED condition, but not ABUSED! Well taken care of and could be showroom with some TLC.
Mechanically the car is perfect, no strange noises like ticking from the engine, and the clutch is very strong. I
suspect the throwout bearing was upgraded but I have no proof, besides it grabs what RPM's you throw at it.
Upgraded:
Only modest modifications were done:
-True GT2 front bumper (Needs some TLC, otherwise amazing and rare)
-Flashed ECU to allow 1.2 Bar creating around (never dynode) 490 HP.
-Single Air intake converted to dual Carbon Fiber intake with K&N filter.
-HID Head Lights
The Used Factor:
-The front GT2 bumper cover should be repainted as the previous owner did not have flex additive to the paint, and
a little bump caused flaking and webbing.
-As mentioned before, the windshield has 2 out-of-main-view chips
-A few dints that could be removed with a painless professional (no cracked paint). Honestly, I couldn't even take
a picture of them, the camera wouldn't capture because they are too small.
-Typical of the age, the carbon fiber steering wheel and the cover over the center thermostat gauges have some
hairline cracks. This does not effect the strength and personal opinion is barely noticeable.
I drive the car once a week (Never in winter), as a car such as this, needs to be driven. I am in no rush, simply
looking for a new home for my baby.

Listen to the Porsche Macan's exhaust note ahead of its LA debut
Fri, 08 Nov 2013As if we need further proof that the Porsche Macan won't just be another small CUV, it'll be a small Porsche CUV, the German automaker has released a video of the vehicle's raucous exhaust note. In short, the Macan will sport a far racier soundtrack than most of its competitors.
The raspy sound coming from one of the Macan's two turbocharged V6 engines sounds great (the video isn't clear as to whether we're listening to the base 3.0-liter or the Turbo model's 3.6-liter engine), and it's accompanied by a nice crackle on overrun. It isn't like a 911 or other flat-six model, but it is more or less what we expect a Porsche to sound like. We'll have all the details on the newest member of the Porsche lineup when it debuts later this month at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. Scroll down for an official press release from Porsche, as well as the video of the Macan, and be sure to turn your speakers up.
Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer
Mon, 07 Oct 2013An Iconic Sports Car, Restored to Seduce
I have been strapped behind the iconic Momo Prototipo steering wheel for a little more than an hour, all windows down as I carve my way up a rugged canyon during an unusually warm Southern California evening, and I am overwhelmed with emotion. My heart is pounding out of my chest, my breathing is heavy and my palms are sweaty because I am completely absorbed by this wondrous machine.
After waiting patiently for nearly four years, I am finally behind the wheel of a classic Porsche 911 restored, modified and tuned by Singer Vehicle Design. The vehicle that surrounds me never rolled off an automaker's assembly line in its current configuration, yet its physical appearance is timeless, build quality breathtaking and driving dynamics peerless.
