Tires new 7/13 @9K miles, about 70% life remaining
The original owner drove the car about 4-years before trading it into his local dealer. The second owner was a
long time Porsche enthusiast and asked the dealer (AutoKennel) to help him find a nice late model Porsche
convertible as he had recently retired and was moving from Southern California to Arizona. The dealer found this
car in June of 2013 with about 8,500 miles, and had it thoroughly inspected by a local Porsche shop before it was
purchased. The Porsche dealer reported it to be in excellent condition, so the second owner purchased the car, and
flew to Dallas, TX to pick it up and drove it to his new home in Phoenix, AZ. For the next 3-years, he enjoyed the
car and took it on several weekend trips. The second owner had recently moved back to Orange County California,
and found that he just wasn’t using the car, and didn’t have space to continue to keep it, so he asked the
dealer AutoKennel to list it for sale.
While the second owner owned the car, he installed the short shift kit, new Rennline pedal kit, hard wire Escort
radar detector kit, new battery, Michelin Pilot Sports tires (7/13 @9K miles), with 70% life remaining, oil
service, brake flush, and inspection (12K miles / 7/2014 at Porsche dealer). He had an oil service and inspection
in August 2016 at Hergesheimer motorsports and they found the car in excellent condition, and needing nothing. The
rear brakes are at 90% life left, and the front brakes at 70% life left.
The 997 S is in great condition. The paint is all original and verified with paint meter. It shines beautifully
and shows minimal signs of use. The wheels are in excellent condition with no rash and the tires have more than
half life remaining. All the glass is original as well. There are some minor nicks on the windshield, but no
cracks or significant chips. The soft-top is near perfect with no tears, rips, or signs of wear. The one-touch
function of the top works flawlessly. The front nose has clear bra installed when the car was new, and it shows
some slight discoloration. The interior is equally nice. The leather seats look great with hardly any wear, just
some minor wear on the driver seat exit bolster. Everything looks, feels, and smells fresh. All the buttons,
gauges, and other controls function properly and show no wear. All in all, it is clear that this example was
always garaged and used mostly for light weekend use.
The Porsche drives fantastically and is exactly as you would expect. It feels extremely tight and still new. The
clutch operates properly with no slipping and the car shifts very smoothly. The power and braking is spot on.
This example is ready for anything from daily use to weekend spirited open top driving.
This car has spent it’s entire life in the dry climates of Texas, Arizona, and Southern California. It has not
been driven in ice or snow and has no corrosion whatsoever.
The 911 comes with owner’s manual, factory toolkit, original window sticker, 2-keys, wheel lock, Porsche flat
repair kit, and windscreen.
I purchased the car in September 2016 from AutoKennel, and had the car shipped to Virginia in an enclosed carrier.
The car arrived clean and easily passed the Virginia State inspection. I had the car inspected and driven by local
sports car expert Jim at Tire America in Newport News, VA, and he indicated it was an extremely nice car. I
purchased the car with 21,887 miles, and put about a 1,000 miles on the car.

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English
Wed, Dec 14 2016The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German – and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.

Porsche Cayman GT4 looks sexy, rapid in the nude
Mon, Jan 5 2015Porsche doesn't officially have a name for its more hardcore version of the Cayman, yet. The speculation is that the coupe is called the GT4 as a little brother to the 911 GT3. However, the German sports car maker apparently is not interested in keeping the model's looks much of a secret because these latest shots show it without a hint of camouflage to speak of. The GT4 reportedly takes the GT3's ethos of more power, less weight and stickier-than-glue handling and brings it all to the Cayman. As these photos show, there's a much lower air dam up front with a cooling vent at the tip of the hood. Larger wheels are another obvious addition and are likely shod with some very sticky rubber. At the back, there's a double spoiler combining a wing and a ducktail. The power and gearbox for the GT4 remains a mystery, though. The rumor is that it uses a tuned version of the 3.4-liter flat-six in the Cayman S and GTS to make between 370 and 400 horsepower. A similar overhaul of the Boxster might be on the way, as well. A version of the convertible wearing some of the Cayman GT4's goodies was recently spotted testing. That one even had a manual transmission to make the prospects behind the wheel even more exciting.
Porsche Australia racing chief dies in crash
Wed, Dec 10 2014The motor racing community in Australia was saddened today to learn of the passing of Jamey Blaikie, a longtime racing administrator and former motorsport director for Porsche in Australia. A former racing driver in his own right, Blaikie was better known for his instrumental role in starting the Porsche Carrera Cup in Australia back in 2003. He left Porsche Cars Australia just last year to pursue other interests, including running an Aston Martin entry in the GT Asia series. Blaikie was in Fiji reportedly undertaking charity work there when his rental car collided with a truck, prematurely ending his life at just 52 years old. Our condolences go out to his family, friends and the motorsport community Down Under, where he'll surely be missed.
