This is a rare version of the 1998 Porsche Carrera 911/993. Completely restored by wealthy doctor who owned the '77 for 35 years and wanted to update it a newer look. It is rebodied to a 1998 with all factory parts(not aftermarket). He had all the interior changed out to 1998 including dash, instruments, door panels, seats, the newer style rear jump seats with the 3 point seat belts instead of the old lap belts, a fully power top from 1998, wheels, the newer powerful 3.6 engine. Only the transmission and chassis are 1977. It has a clean title that has it listed as a 1977 so it is very cheap to insure and register.
It is a 5 speed and weighs only 2500 lbs as opposed to the standard '98 which weighs 3400 lbs making it very quick and it pulls 278 horsepower.
It does not have a heater, air conditioner, or smog equipment. We now have only our California home and so can not keep the car. It will not pass smog so you need to register it in a place that doesn't have smog laws or you need connections. It is a blast to drive and is a head turner. Please call if you'd like to see it- We are located on the South Shore of Lake Tahoe, Ca. and I keep the car in my hangar in Minden, Nv. Five three-zero 318 295zero. Thanks for looking and I'm happy to answer any questions.

Mileage stated incorrectly, sorry, just over 79k. Restoration done at 58k, we purchased car with 68k. In the 5 years we've had the car we've put only 11k miles on it due to our much too short driving season. The car has been garaged or hangared. Only things done to car since we received it is oil changes, new alternator, new top of the line Alpine stereo and speaker system with amp(sounds amazing), and a new battery this week.(prior battery was a 2005, it was time).

Car runs great and is a blast to drive. It will be sold as is with no warranty implied or otherwise. We had it shipped in from Salt Lake City, Utah to Reno, Nv and it cost us $400. Kind of give you an idea of what it might cost to get it to you.

Interest in the car has been fantastic, thank you, Any questions at all, please let me know.

Porsche planning customer driving center at Le Mans

Fri, 29 Nov 2013

Porsche seems to be on a campaign to build driving centers for its customers to allow them to experience the capabilities of their cars on track. It has one under way in Los Angeles, another in development at its North American headquarters in Atlanta, and a British center set up at the Silverstone circuit. Now the latest reports indicate that Porsche is planning yet another driving center at Le Mans.
The new facility is earmarked to be built at the Circuit de la Sarthe right by the start/finish line, incorporating the Porsche Curves that bridge the Arnage corner and the Ford Chicanes on the West side of the famous track.
Porsche is reportedly still seeking approval from the Automobile Club de l'Ouest that manages the circuit, and once given the green light, would still take some time to complete. But the idea of driving a 911 flat out on the legendary track is likely to make more than a few mouths water, particularly as the German automaker prepares its full-on assault of the famous endurance race next year.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.

Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race

Thu, Mar 17 2016

We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:
