2009 Porsche 911 997 on 2040-cars
Clements, Maryland, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : jamijddimery@horticulturists.net .
My low mileage Mezger powered Basalt 2009 997 Turbo. I am a long time Porsche owner,
enthusiast, and mechanic. Before I go any further this car does have a $55k factory replacement engine due to a
broken timing chain, quite possibly caused by the ridiculous number of over revs logged by the ecu. I personally
installed the new engine at 16k miles and purchased the car with 17.5k miles. I have completely torn the car down,
inspected, serviced, and reassembled everything mechanically. The entire suspension has been disassembled,
inspected, and serviced. The suspension while very aggressive, is equally agile and responsive while being very
predictable and compliant. I spent a lot of time working with the shock settings, and more importantly reducing the
charge pressures making them much more street friendly then their original design and intention. This car is a
stunning performer being leaps and bounds above the standard turbo.
The paint shows extremely well with the only significant blemishes being nicks and chips on the front splitter,
and around the leading edges of the front rocker and rear bumper (see pics). The installer failed to have the
Techart provided protective clear film attached on those sections. A little time and creativity would quickly
repair this. If it were not for the car being a metallic based black I certainly would have addressed it, however;
it really doesn't stand out as it would with any other color so I decided to leave it alone for now. Aside from
that the paint and body are in amazing condition, you will not be disappointed, no one has ever been yet! The
basalt black has become one of my personal favorites as it really accentuates and exaggerates the curves of the
Turbo body and changes slightly in color with light, a must see in person as pictures just can't do it justice.
Improvements and upgrades.
styling:
-GT2 RS seats (full leather)
-HRE 590R three piece wheels with Dunlop racemaxx tires
-Techart aero kit including rear wing element
-Techart GT3 carbon front bumper vent insert
-Techart carbon roof spoiler
Suspension and Brakes:
-JRZ RS Pro coil overs with Eibach 500/600 springs
-Brembo GT 380mm front and 380mm rear brake conversion
-Brembo type III front rotors
-RSS control arms, links, and mounts
-TPC Racing sway bars
Engine and Performance:
-Brand new Factory replacement Mezger engine
-AWE Tuning 650S headers, hi-flow cats, and exhaust
-GT3 throttle body
-Softronic 650 hp 93 oct tune
-TPC Racing intercoolers (largest on market)
-Werks1 (champion motorsport) carbon plenum
-Werks1 carbon y-pipe (needs repair but goes with car)
-IDP aluminum y-pipe
-Werks1 carbon air intake
-OS Giken limited slip
-ERP triple disc clutch and LWFW assembly.
The car is rock solid and fully emissions compliant, no lights, warnings or errors.
The Softronic software was used in favor of the original AWE/GIAC software because it provides a more progressive
boost map and better throttle modulation allowing the car to be much more driveable on the bottom end of the power
band.
No expense was spared on the build of this car and would cost several 10's of thousands to duplicate, anyone
familiar with these cars knows the costs of the parts and mods listed above. There are no excuses and the next
owner will surely not be dissapointed.

2024 Porsche Panamera; Rivian's surprise; Cadillac electrifies V | Autoblog Podcast #823
Fri, Mar 15 2024In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd. They start off discussing a couple of vehicles they've both driven — the 2024 Ford Maverick Tremor and the 2024 Volvo C40 Recharge 2WD. From there, they pivot to Byron's first drive of the 2024 Porsche Panamera, and then from there it's on to more electrified luxury in the form of the new Cadillac Lyriq. After that, it's on to news. Rivian made a big splash last week. Not to be upstaged, Cadillac decided to get in on the action by teasing an electric V model, the Opulent Velocity Concept. After that, it's time for a future classic; this week, it's the Dodge Magnum. They end the episode by spending listener Isaiah's money on some used stick-shift transportation. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Porsche 911 GT3 wows the crowds in Geneva
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Porsche has a long and storied history of taking its range-topping 911 sportscar racing, with an enviable record of achievements in tow. The latest machine with which the automaker will take to the track can be seen above: the fifth-generation 2014 911 GT3.
With 475 horsepower strumming through the 3.8-liter six-cylinder boxer engine, this is the pinnacle of naturally aspirated performance from Porsche. It can go from 0 to 60 in just 3.3 seconds, hit a top speed of 195 miles per hour and has lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in less than seven and a half minutes.
A dual-clutch PDK transmission (no standard manual gearbox will be offered) with shorter gearing than lesser 911 models sends power to the rear wheels. Providing forward motion isn't the only thing those rear wheels will be doing - Porsche says the 2014 911 GT3 is fitted with the manufacturer's first active rear-wheel steering.
Watch Porsche's 918 Spyder break a sweat while hot weather testing
Wed, 19 Jun 2013With five months left until the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder enters production, Porsche engineers are still putting the hybrid sports coupe through a battery of last-minute tests. To give us new reasons to ogle over the car - as if we needed any more - Porsche has released a short video showing the 918 Spyder undergoing shakedown tests in the hot Nevada desert. And you can't drive through Nevada without visiting Vegas, too, right?
Although there's really nothing new to see in this video, it's still fun to watch as Porsche approaches one million test miles logged on this exciting new high-performance model. One interesting part (at around the 0:37 mark) shows the car taking off under electric power and then transitioning to engine power, which results in a mix of whirs and growls as the 918 Spyder switches from a 127-horsepower electric vehicle to an 887-hp hybrid supercar. Scroll down to watch - and hear - Porsche's latest creation in motion.
