2007 - Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Golden, Colorado, United States
Techart or stock 19" wheels with sticky Bridgestone Potenza tires, wider than I think I have ever owned before. Get in it and drive, its both easy and challenging to drive with reward to the best of your abilities. That being said you don't have to drive it hard, its a rewarding car whether you drive it hard or just puddle along with traffic. Good air conditioning, large sunroof, electric windows all make it easy and fun to be in and drive. This is one investment you wont regret, trust me on that one. So why am I selling, and why after owning it nearly two years have I only put about 50 some miles on it? Well, its an age old story nobody wants to hear so I won't bore you with details other than to say a series of medical problems have prevented me from enjoying it the way I should have. Most of those have been resolved now, I do not have to sell it, I do not need the money nor the space but I simply want something different. Its time to move on to the next supercar, plus I should have purchased an open car, my first love. So now I am ready to move on to the next car to add to my stable. Not that I need any, I have around 15 vehicles and find it hard to give any one of them much time. You know about the options, the car is equipped as one would order a real drivers car with options including a sport shifter, adaptive sport seats, 3 spoke multi function steering wheel in matching grey leather, 6 speed manual trans and sport chronometer package turbo plus. And that magnificent 480 horsepower turbo motor, responsive, strong and reliable. One of the best in any car on the planet and destined to stay that way. Porsche keeps upping the ante with more hp and more performance but this car is your last chance to own a manual transmission turbo motor 911. The new 991's are, as I understand it all automatic transmissions with no manual option available. Pity for those of us who like to row our cars around with the shifter. As mentioned, this car does have the sport shifter as well, another driver oriented option.

Porsche tops JD Power APEAL study for 12th time
Wed, Jul 27 2016JD Power's 2016 Automotive Performance, Execution, and Layout (APEAL) study hasn't changed much this time around with Porsche coming in at No.1 for the 12th consecutive year, while BMW was close behind in second. Jaguar and Mercedes-Benz tied for third with Land Rover, Lexus, and Lincoln tied for No.5. The APEAL Study, according to JD Power, measures owners' level of excitement and emotional attachment across 77 parameters. Brands and cars are rated on a 1,000-point scale. The study found that new cars with modern safety features including low speed collision avoidance and blind spot monitoring have higher APEAL scores than vehicles without the features. The overall industry score increased from 798 to 801, which JD Power claims was helped by the launch of a variety of new vehicles. This year, 22 out of 30 new or redesigned cars received a higher score than the vehicle's respective segment average. Porsche is once again at the top of the list as the automaker's score increased by three points to 877. BMW outscored Jaguar to take second place with a score of 859, while the British automaker dropped three points from last year with 852 points. Volkswagen overtook Mini to become the top-ranked non-premium brand with 809 points, while the latter automaker trailed behind by one point. At the end of the scale, Smart came in at the very bottom for the second year in a row with a score of 745 points, which represents an increase of 62 points over last year. Fiat's score increased by six points to 755, but still confined the automaker to second-to-worst place for a consecutive year. Mitsubishi's score increased to 770, up from 755, to become the fourth-worst brand, while Jeep fell to third-worst with a decrease in seven points to 756. General Motors received six segment-level awards, followed by Hyundai with five, and BMW and VW earning four apiece. Surprise segment victories include the Chevrolet Camaro, which outscored the Dodge Challenger, and the Lexus RC which ranked above the BMW 4 and 3 Series. For more information on how the automakers ranked, check out the official release on the 2016 APEAL Study below or visit JD Power's website to analyze the graphs.

Porsche 912 is no longer the brand's black sheep
Fri, Dec 12 2014If you haven't looked recently, prices for many vintage Porsche 911s are now well out of the realm for mortal men to purchase. However, the growing values have their advantages because they mean that the 912 is being better accepted as a member of the Porsche family. In a new video, Petrolicious talks to one owner about his mildly modified example while the coupe zips through the backroads and city streets of France. Launched around the time of the 911, the 912 shared its body but retained the four-cylinder engine from the 356, rather than the new six. The older mill helped make the 912 cheaper to buy, but it also tarnished the coupe in the eyes of Porsche fans for years. Much like the four-cylinder 914 and 924, the 912 just seemed like a black sheep in the shadow of its more powerful brother. Following two massive changes to his life, Julien Borne bought a 1967 912 as a project to get back on the road. After hours of welding, wrenching and beating out panels by hand in his grandparents' neglected country house, he crafted this gorgeous example. Check out the video to hear his story, as Petrolicious shows why the model's stigma is wearing off.
