Offered for sale is an absolutely stunning, well optioned, practically virginal 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet (991) with only 892 miles and finished in striking factory paint-to-sample Peru Red over Espresso Natural leather with 20” black alloy wheels. One of our long time clients ordered the car new, adding it to his stable of significant cars following more than a year of back and forth with Porsche about painting the car Peru Red, a factory color introduced in 1974 that provided the owner a bit of nostalgia for a 911S that he’d owned in the mid 1970s. For Porsche to agree to finish a 911 in a paint-to-sample color, three cars have to be slated for that color, yielding resistance from the company from the onset of the order. After prolonged discussion and acknowledging that the owner has been an exceptionally loyal customer over the past fifty years, Porsche finally relented, justifying their rule by painting two of their show cars in Peru Red in addition to this gorgeous example. Consequently, this is the only privately owned Peru Red 991 in existence. 

The car comes with the balance of its factory warranty, all books and keys, a custom car cover, the original window sticker and its Certificate of Authenticity. It was ordered new with the following options: 

  •             Exterior Paint to Sample Code
  •             Color to Sample
  •             Sport Chrono Package
  •             Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
  •             Sport Exhaust System
  •             Wheels Painted Black
  •             Natural Leather Interior
  •             Deletion of Model Designation
  •             SportDesign Steering Wheel

Unfortunately for the owner, a series of necessary surgeries and the resulting inability to drive low slung models over the ensuing two plus years has caused him to consider selling a number of his cars, including the 991. But it’s also worth noting that this is not a fire sale and consequently the car is listed at a market appropriate price.

We typically use three or four paragraphs to describe each aspect of a car, noting flaws, describing performance, delineating a specific model’s highpoints, etc. Assuming that you’re already well aware of this car’s incredible performance, technological advancements, striking styling and comfortable ride quality, there’s literally nothing more to describe – it’s effectively brand new. If you’re looking for a flawless, completely unique, desirably optioned Carrera S Cabriolet, there is no better car in the marketplace. 

We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed.

We try to give accurate descriptions of the cars we’re selling, but we’re enthusiasts, not experts, and we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional inspections.

Porsche reviving 718 name for new Boxster and Cayman

Thu, Dec 10 2015

The next-generation Boxster and Cayman are coming next year, and when they launch, they'll have a new name: 718. There's historical significance there – in 1957, Porsche launched the 718 racecar with a mid-mounted, four-cylinder engine. And when the new Boxster and Cayman come to market, they'll be powered by a new turbocharged, flat-four engine, mounted amidships just like in the current cars. That powertrain isn't a surprise, but the name change certainly is. Officially, the cars will be called 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman, and Porsche says the two models "will share more similarities than ever before," both visually and mechanically. What's more, Porsche confirms the 718 Boxster will carry a higher price tag than the 718 Cayman, which is a switch from the company's current pricing strategy – right now, a base Cayman costs $500 more than a standard Boxster. Technical details haven't been confirmed yet, but an earlier report suggests the 2.0-liter flat-four will produce 240 horsepower in the base cars and 300 hp in the S models. GTS versions are tipped to produce as much as 370 hp from this same flat-four engine. Both 718 models will be unveiled throughout the course of 2016. Have a look below for Porsche's official statement. Related Video: Boxster and Cayman to be branded as 718 model range next yearPorsche's mid-engine sports cars to receive new name Atlanta, Georgia. The mid-engine sports cars from Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG will be named 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman, respectively, when the models are introduced over the course of 2016. The 718 designation is a reference to the ground-breaking sports car Porsche introduced back in 1957, which achieved great success in a number of renowned car races. The 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman will share more similarities than ever before – both visually and technically. In the future, both will have equally powerful turbocharged flat-four cylinder engines. The Roadster will be positioned at a higher price level than the Coupe – as is the case with the 911 models. The 718 model range is driven by the four-cylinder concept and the history of distinguished Porsche sports cars. The latest example is the 919 Hybrid LMP1 race car, which is powered by a highly-efficient, turbocharged 2.0 liter four-cylinder engine.

Volkswagen posts quarterly profit despite drop in sales

Thu, Oct 29 2020

Volkswagen returned to profit in the third quarter as surging Chinese demand for luxury cars helped offset a 1.1% drop in vehicle deliveries due to the pandemic, sending its shares as much as 3% higher on Thursday. The German automaker's return to the black comes amid spiking coronavirus cases in Europe that led governments in France and Germany to order their countries back into strict national lockdowns on Wednesday. "The coronavirus remains a central problem," Volkswagen Chief Financial Officer Frank Witter said in a conference call with reporters. "This situation now is anything but relaxed." But Witter said the group expected the economic recovery to continue and did "not anticipate any nationwide lockdowns in larger markets." Witter said the takeover of U.S. truck maker Navistar International by Volkswagen's trucking unit Traton was an important acquisition, but the "current economic climate will not make this easy." Volkswagen reiterated it expects to post a profit for the full year, saying its business "recovered noticeably" in the third quarter as sales in China of premium vehicles, including Audi and Porsche sports cars, rose 3%. The quarterly performance was also aided by a series of cost-cutting measures launched earlier this year. Volkswagen said its net liquidity rose to 24.8 billion euros from 18.7 billion at the end of the second quarter. Excluding one-time items, third-quarter operating profit was 3.2 billion euros ($3.8 billion), down from 4.8 billion euros a year earlier, but up from a second quarter loss of 1.7 billion. In a note to clients, Jefferies analyst Philippe Houchois described the results as a "solid performance with strong cash, but relatively muted in the context of the (auto) sector recovery." Last week, German rival Daimler reported a record 24% jump in Chinese demand for its Mercedes-Benz cars, boosting its margins in the third quarter. Italian-American Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Peugeot manufacturer PSA Group both also posted solid results this week. Witter said Volkswagen could not say for sure whether it would meet EU CO2 emissions targets this year, adding "it will be a tough race." At 1030 GMT, Volkswagen shares were up 2.9% at 129.20 euros.

Leno, Seinfeld and a Porsche 356/2 featured in latest CICGC

Sun, 19 Jan 2014

In the latest kaffeeklatsch known as Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, Jerry Seinfeld pulls Jay Leno out of his garage for a trip to Jones Coffee in Pasadena, CA. The NBC funnyman we've lately seen driving two guest Porsches in his eponymous garage this time takes the passenger seat in a 1949 Porsche 356/2, one of early all-aluminum, hand-built coupes - still in 100-percent original condition - built in Gmund, Austria and nicknamed "Gmunds."
The comedy veterans have known one another for 35 years, so the episode is rich with stories of The Good Old Days. Leno says it is also the first time he's ever had a cup of coffee, and for obvious comedic reasons they start with the civet-stained beans made famous in The Bucket List. You can watch Leno take his first sip below, and have you haven't heard the joke about the goat and the anvil, scroll on down for a listen to that and one or two more jokes besides.
