 Here you have the opportunity to purchase at the end of this auction, or perhaps sooner if you make a high enough offer. Stunning black paint that appears to be all original with almost no flaws, only one insignificant one on the hood but no dings, scratches, or rock chips in the paint or glass. Why am I selling this wonderful driver's car? And why do I call it a driver's car? Its a drivers car by dint of how it was equipped from the factory with adaptive sport seating, sport chronometer plus, thicker three spoke sport steering wheel, nice, wide 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. So now I am determined to reduce my accumulation of cars and this one is first on the list since I want an open car. Who knows, I might even buy another Turbo but in Cabriolet form. Have one you want to trade? Have anything you want to trade let me know thru eBay messaging. Would consider an Aston Martin DB9 Volante or a Generation 3 Dodge Viper, both black or dark blue and convertibles. What do you have to trade?

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.

You get your choice of either the lovely but rather common stock Porsche 19x8 and 11 alloys or a full set of the same size Techart black alloys with silver rims, the rears with a nice looking offset. Or for another two grand above the final selling price you can have both and the best part is they both have a good, usable set of super wide Bridgestone Potenza tires, the stock alloys having a shade more tread than the Techarts but they are all plenty usable with at least 70% tread by my estimate. I am not an expert on either Porsches or tires but have had lots of both and I can tell you with all truth this car is the best of the lot that have graced my garages.

With only fifty miles on the clock in the last nearly two years since the Nov 2012 purchase the car has in effect had only two real owners, the two prior to myself and I have the mechanical invoices for work done by the second owner only. I believe I have all the books and tools as well with one factory key. Work was done by RAC Performance in Carrollton, TX, the only authorized RUF dealer in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. The 60k service has been done by them. I did have a Pre Purchase Inspection done by Autobahn Motorcar Group, a Porsche dealer in Fort Worth Texas by the manager Devin Tyler done at 61,505 miles showing "no problem areas" and the manager told me that in 6 years the car had only seen a slight over rev a measly 6 times but apparently he did not record that on his report. He said that's unheard of. The car is clean, fresh and ready to go. Take a look at the pics of the interior, it looks new doesn't it? I am so impressed by the quality of the leather and the care that has been taken to maintain this car that it is essentially a like new car. My own tastes seem to lean toward open cars, convertibles and I do love the Aston Martin DB9 Volante which may well be the replacement for this fine automobile.

All this is in aid of selling my car which has a title clear and is totally free of encumbrances and is mine. I am not a mechanic, nor am I an expert on anything Porsche, just an enthusiast who has owned several but still I am not an expert at all. All of the descriptions in the auction are my opinion and mine alone. I can not verify anything other than the facts listed above, the car drives what to me is well and like new and I can see no problems with any of the systems or parts of the car. Come and see the car for yourself, I am located west of Fort Collins in the Foothills and will gladly arrange a viewing if you are local or want to make the trip, but do it before the auction ends, NOT AFTER. I bought the car sight unseen and have not regretted it in any way. It has cost me nothing to own other than the insurance and some minor improvements all of which are easily reversible. The carbon fiber rings around the headlites are held on with tape and are easily removed. The front valence under the grille is new and it replaced one that had seen better days by myself. I can at least do that sort of thing. I do not offer any sort of warranty or anything similar to a warranty for anything on the car, the facts presented are my impressions but are not those of an expert. Thus THE CAR CARRIES NOTHING LIKE A WARRANTY AND IS SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED OR EVEN HINTED AT, NONE!!

The transport of the car is the sole responsibility of the buyer but I will do what I can to assist as long as it is understood that the transport is NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY! It is yours if you are the buyer of this fine automobile. I do have a friend who likes to take cars around the country on a single car trailer and if he is available he would be your absolute best option other than one of the expensive enclosed carriers like Reliable. He is honest, up front and reliable beyond reproach. I have no problem sending the car overseas either and will assist where I can having already sold cars to Germany, France, England, even Uruguay believe it or not!

So lets remain friends and PLEASE do not bid if you are not prepared to pay and buy the car. If you were to be the high bidder but make some lame excuse like you bid drunk or by mistake I will be forced to employ any and all legal means to collect the winning bid. I cannot be swayed with excuses, real or imagined so lets do a good, clean uncomplicated transaction that sees the car paid for in three days as specified in the auction and you can keep it here as long as need be until it can be transported or you can come and get it yourself. Its well worth the asking price, I don't believe you will find a better one for any price. No wait, that makes no sense, pay more get more, that's the American way after all, right? This is however an excellent value and I don't believe you would regret the purchase at all.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles

Mon, May 13 2024

It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.

2015 Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Think of the electric motor in the facelifted 2015 Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid as the cream filling in an Oreo cookie. Under the hood of this plug-in hybrid crossover is a 333-horsepower, supercharged 3.0-liter V6 with a 95-hp synchronous electric motor sandwiched between it and an eight-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission. The clutched powertrain allows pure combustion, pure electric or a combination of both to drive all four wheels through Porsche's permanent all-wheel-drive system.
Differentiating itself from the Panamera S E-Hybrid sedan, which shares the same basic powertrain and stores energy in a 9.4-kWh battery, the Cayenne crossover is fit with a more robust 10.8-kWh lithium-ion battery that delivers an estimated pure-electric driving range of up to 22 miles at speeds of up to 78 miles per hour.
To be one of the very first US media members to sample Porsche's latest fuel-efficient crossover, the automaker flew us to Frankfurt, Germany, to test the five-passenger Cayenne S E-Hybrid on its home turf.

Rimac inks deal to purchase 55% of Bugatti from VW Group

Mon, Jul 5 2021

ZAGREB, Croatia — Croatian electric supercar builder Rimac is taking over the iconic French manufacturer Bugatti in a deal that is reported to be worth millions of euros. Rimac said GermanyÂ’s Volkswagen Group, including the Porsche division — which owns a majority stake in Bugatti — plans to create a new joint venture. The new company will be called Bugatti-Rimac. Rimac Automobili announced Monday that it will be combining forces with Bugatti to “create a new automotive and technological powerhouse.” Rimac has progressed in 10 years from a one-man garage startup to a successful company that produces electric supercars. Mate Rimac, who founded the company in 2009, says the venture is an “exciting moment” and calls the combination of the companies “a perfect match for each other.” Porsche will own 45% of Bugatti-Rimac while Rimac Automobili will hold the remaining 55% stake, according to Croatian media reports. Financial details of the deal were not published. Bugattis will continue to be assembled in eastern France, where the company was established in 1909. The vehicles will use engines developed and made in Croatia. “In an industry evolving at ever-increasing speed, flexibility, innovation and sustainability remain at the very core of RimacÂ’s operations," the company said. “Uniting RimacÂ’s technical expertise and lean operations with BugattiÂ’s 110-year heritage of design and engineering prowess represents a fusion of leading automotive minds."
