2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S on 2040-cars
Antioch, Tennessee, United States

The 2005 Carrera S wasn't just a performance package on the standard 911, it made it a higher tier car. Coming from
factory with a bigger 3.8-liter engine, Porsche Stability Management technology, larger brakes with red calipers,
19" wheels, Bi-Xenon headlights, a sports steering wheel, and aluminum interior trim were all additions included in
the 911S. There is a significant difference in the standard Carrera from overall performance to future resell
value.
2005 is a pivotal year in the 911's history. This is the debut of the 997 redesign that bought the 911 back to an
appearance closer to the original. In fact, the fascia proved so popular, it's hard for many to tell the difference
between this one and a brand new 911 coupe. I am very picky about the level of care and maintenance which shows in
that the car feels and looks almost new. Just take some time to look at the Arctic Silver Metallic paint. It's a
timeless color on a German sports car, and so when it's maintained this well, the Porsche becomes ageless. This is
a garage kept car, driven in fair weather. The paint and body as well as the 19-inch Carrera S wheels look amazing
with Carrera S wide body stance. The look of a new 911 at a fraction of the price.
Porsche interiors are durable and finely crafted. With just the tight amount of shiny alloy, it's not overly
flashy, and instead gives the impression of high-quality materials and craftsmanship that is worthy of the price.
The black leather bucket seats are engineered to both keep you planted in the corners and comfortable on long
trips. This is loaded with automatic climate control, keyless entry/alarm, cruise control, sunroof, and power
everything. Because this is a modern classic, you also get modern safety features such as front airbags, side
airbags, and anti-lock brakes. But even with the premium upgrades, this one continues all the great 911 traditions.
So the ignition key still goes on the left, and the tachometer gets the most prominent placement as the largest
gauge that boldly sits in the center.
The Carrera S liquid-cooled 3.8-liter flat-six brought a significant power upgrade in 2005 with 355 horsepower and
295 pounds of torque. This coupe has its original motor, and just like the rest of the car, you can instantly tell
it has been well cared for. You know this from its average of less than 3,500 miles per year, the overall condition
of the car shows in its driving and look. This 911 is great for a daily driver to hammering down the backroads. The
Porsche 911 is one of the best engineered sports cars around. You can see it in the details, like the flat
underbelly for improved aerodynamics. You feel it on the road with an exceptionally well balanced suspension
(especially for a rear-engine car.) This car needs nothing and is ready for the road. I have added a clear bra
for protecting the paint as well as tinted windows and all weather mats. I have original mats that are like new
and will be included. I have also added the LED lighting upgrade to the front driving lights for a great look and
safety. The remainder of the car is completely stock and well maintained. There are no leaks or issues and has
always been well maintained. I have owned 911s for 20 years and currently own 3 Porsches and keep my cars right
and in great condition.

Porsche 918 Spyder officially priced from $845K, Weissach package $84K more
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Porsche has released official pricing for its entire lineup of 2013 models, which just happens to include the upcoming 918 Spyder hybrid supercar. The 795-horsepower advanced-technology-lab-on-wheels is now officially confirmed to have a starting price of $845,000 in the US, which is the exact amount we were told earlier when we had the opportunity to ride shotgun in some 918 Spyder pre-production test vehicles.
What we didn't know at the time was the cost of the Weissach trim package, which is a high-performance upgrade to the standard vehicle that includes the deletion of some interior amenities and addition of lighter-weight carbon fiber appointments, magnesium wheels, flame-resistant upholstery, racing belts and aerodynamic aids - it's meant for track-going folk who intend to use their 918 Spyders as God, country and manufacturer intended.
All told, the Weissach package should drop the 918 Spyder's curb weight by some 80 pounds, while also lightening your wallet of an additional $84,000 - the car's MSRP with the Weissach package is $929,000. These prices don't, however, include destination charges, which, for something like the very limited edition 918 Spyder (only 918 will be made), could very well cost considerably more than your average Porsche.
Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just as many racing versions of the coupe as there were street-legal versions.
As the show's 2013 honoree, one of the prime racing examples was a 1970 Porsche 911 S raced by Sam Posey. There were so many cars in attendance, we didn't know where to look, but a 1985 911 Speedster concept and a Porsche-owned, rally-ready 911 Type 953 were definitely among the more impressive standouts. As an added bonus, Jacksonville-based Brumos Porsche had many of its classic racecars on display including a beautiful 959.
Lots of new cars were unveiled in Munich this week. Here's what you might've missed
Thu, Sep 9 2021The 2021 Munich Auto Show is happening this week and due to ongoing corporate travel restrictions, we remained firmly planted on this continent. So, although we can't tell you exactly what it's like inside the futuristic new Mercedes EQE electric sedan or fully appreciate the funky Volkswagen ID.Life concept, there's no shortage of details and analysis to provide. Obviously, as Germany's premier auto show in 2021, the cars unveiled were primarily from the German brands. We also focused mostly on the cars that might actually make their way to the United States, or at least inspire those that will. 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE is an electric alternative to the E-Class While the EQS paved the way for Mercedes' electrified future, much like the S-Class before it, the EQE stands to be the car that will move in far greater numbers -- much like the E-Class before it.

Though perhaps a tad derivative of the Honda E, Volkswagen's blocky little crossover EV nevertheless represents a handsome new direction for VW design. We like this better than the rounded looks of the current ID.3 and ID.4. 2021 Volkswagen ID.Life concept View 20 Photos BMW i Vision Circular is a 100% recycled and recyclable hatch Behold, the next BMW 3 Series! Just kidding. Besides this, BMW displayed cars in person for the first time that it had previously only unveiled on the interwebs, including the new 2 Series and revised iX3. It also unveiled some bikes. BMW i Vision Circular Concept View 63 Photos Audi's GrandSphere concept was designed as a road-going private jet Does Audi know what a sphere is? Cause this isn't anything like one. Still, it's quite a handsome thing, and as one of three Sphere-branded concepts, previews the next direction of Audi design (which is pleasantly reminiscent of two-decade-old Mazda design).
