This is an incredible example of the sought after 1973 Porsche 911. This car is rust free! It has been owned by the original owner for 41 years. I bought it from the original owner, and he was reluctant to sell but has some health issues. His son helped prepare the vehicle for sale. This car has been upgraded with steel ST fenders front and rear. This conversion occurred about twenty years ago. It was a great job and has held up well. The car has the tilting sport seats, which are hugely valuable by themselves. In addition the vehicle has a 2.7S motor which has the upgraded chain tensioners, as well as Weber carburetors. It is a fast nimble and exhilarating car. The wheels are Compmotive and fifteen inches in diameter, and the tires are old, and should be replaced. Both front and rear bumpers are steel, although I don't know their origin.

The great! Gaps are great all around! You can enjoy and drive as is. These vehicles are on the rise in price. Drive a classic long hood Porsche. I can visualize this vehicle with the correct Fuch wheels, Viper green Carrera stripe kit for an RSR and a killer duck tail. It could be phenomenal! Transmission has the short shift kit on the linkage. Drives and runs fantastic. Brake discs are new all around and are ventilated like the "S" model. The clutch and transmission work great, no synchronizer issues. The engine is strong and runs great! The paint is beautiful and is the original color. The car has been repainted and is very nice and shiny. The sport seats are extremely comfortable and supportive. The interior is in very nice condition. The carpets look original to me, and appear to be in great condition. Rust free 1973! These are hard to find. Start with a great foundation and build it into what you want. 

The not so good. No spare tire, no tool kit, no jack, no owners manual, no receipts. The original owner closed and moved his business, so is looking for receipts, but also in poor health, so plan on as is! The generator light is on while running, even though it appears to be charging. The tachometer also doesn't work, the passenger side door needs the door stop repair kit, the rear brake lights work, but not the taillights. Headlights and wipers work. The horn and turn signals also don't work. The car hasn't been driving regular in about twenty years so expect some sorting. The owner's son did replace the fuel lines, new fuel pump, and did new brakes all around. He is a motorcycle mechanic, but not a Porsche mechanic, so please review his work for correctness. The mirrors are not original, and the adjustors are in the original door panels. I do not have the original wheels, deck lid, original seats, or steering wheel.

Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."

1986 Porsche 959 Prototype at Barrett-Jackson sees gavel fall at $440,000 [UPDATE: w/video]

Sat, 19 Jan 2013

Fans of Porsche in America have longed for the chance to buy a 959 ever since the German automaker produced and sold it (well, sold it everywhere but the United States...) in the 1980s. Well, they just had their chance. The car you see above is a Porsche 959 prototype built in 1986, and only one other running prototype still exists.
The 959 prototype can't be driven on public roads, as it carries no such certification. Somehow, we doubt that matters all that much to the new buyer - this one is probably going to be sitting in a collection. When the gavel finally fell, bidding had reached $400,000, plus a 10-percent buyer's fee.
Check out our high-res image gallery above to see this prototype up close, and scroll down below to watch a video of it crossing the auction block and for its official auction description.

Driving the Panamera and Mike's Rant | Autoblog Podcast #487

Thu, Sep 8 2016

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want questionable buying advice, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com.
