Many Upgrades, Over $50k In Receipts on 2040-cars
Year:1985
Mileage:13868

My wife and I recently moved from San Diego, CA to Baltimore, MD. I went from having a two car garage to a one car garage, and, now, a baby is on the way.
My loss is your gain. The last owner of this car never intended sell it. He spent a lot of money on it, but he was hurt bad in the housing crisis and so I bought it off him in 2009. I am willing to sell it for the same amount I paid for it even though I have over $15k in my own receipts since purchase. I am an engineer by background, and I have a fair amount of OCD when it comes to my projects. I just kept addressing every little thing that I could find. I think that comes through in how I represent the car. This is a California car. The maintenance receipts dating back to 1985 demonstrate the desert provenance of the car, and the VIN report shows emission checks in arid southern California. It has never seen salt or ice. It has no rust. I have over $50k in receipts for the last 14,000 miles on the car. The car also comes with receipts dating back to 1985. The mileage listed is since the engine rebuild. Here are the big ticket receipts: Major Engine Rebuild (14k miles) - Mild performance upgrades including ported and polished cylinder head, compression and cam - Custom chip programmed on the dyno reaching 208hp at the rear wheel Complete Transmission Rebuild (6k miles) - Fast Shift Synchros - Wevo Linkage, Wevo PSJ, Wevo Spring Kit, Wevo Extended Handle Suspension Upgrades (5k miles) - 24mm Hollow Elephant Torsion bars up front, 33mm Hollow Elephant Torsion bars in the back - Bilstein Sport Shocks, Corner Balanced Complete Interior Refurbishment - New leather, new carpets, new dashboard, new door panels - The pictures show it well This car is absolutely reliable. It leaks zero fluids. It has excellent rubber trim all the way around, great heating, and ice cold A/C. You could certainly use it as a daily driver without any issue and not have the guilt of devaluing a low mileage car. I can refer you to Black Forest Porsche in San Diego to ask about my maintenance history with the car and how persistent I was about addressing every little thing I could find. Give them the VIN so they can pull their records and ask for Jeff, or you could just look at my book of receipts. There is just over 268,000 miles on the odometer. The paint is the original single stage treatment from Stuttgart. It has nicks and chips commiserate with its age. It looks great in sunshine but a bit faded under artificial light. The next owner might consider repainting if you can find someone near you who will perform a single stage application correctly. Please don't mess up this beautiful car with clearcoat. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction should another transaction occur. Serious bidders only please. Thank you for your time in reading my ad and good luck bidding. |

Porsche tuners 9ff, SpeedArt going bankrupt
Thu, 19 Sep 2013Times are tough in Europe right now, and that unfortunately has reaped disastrous consequences for some of its smallest niche automakers. Gumpert, Wiesmann, Artega and Lola have all filed for bankruptcy this year, and it appears that tuners are not immune to the tough times, either.
Word coming in from across the pond suggests that 9ff and SpeedArt - two of the biggest names in Porsche tuning - have filed for bankruptcy as well. 9ff is best known for the GT9, a radical hypercar barely based on the 911, while SpeedArt was once of the foremost tuners of Porsches.
Fortunately there are still plenty of tuners ready to take a wrench to your Elfen, but the reported demise of these two makes the market a little bit smaller and - for Porsche enthusiasts - maybe the world a little bit lonelier, too.
McLaren P1 vs Porsche 918 vs Ducati 1199 Superleggera in epic standing-mile drag race
Fri, 10 Oct 2014We live in a high-tech supercar renaissance, with the Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari all duking it out for performance supremacy. All three members of this power trio place the engine behind the driver and use some kind of hybrid assist. However, each one finds a slightly different way to make that setup work. While all of the tech is insanely cool, let's just admit that we are all really wondering which one is the quickest and which is the fastest. Autocar aims to find out in a new video pitting two of them against a surprise challenger in the standing mile.
Unfortunately, the race is missing the Ferrari, despite Autocar's best efforts. So instead, it has another limited-edition, high-performance vehicle from Italy in the form of the Ducati 1199 Superleggera. The bike has just two cylinders, but at 1.2-liters of displacement, it makes over 200 horsepower, and all that gumption is packaged into a magnesium monocoque body with carbon fiber bodywork to keep weight low. Granted, the cycle is going up against the 875-hp Porsche and 903-hp McLaren, but traction, aerodynamics and gearing all play a part in this fascinating video.
There's no sense in ruining the winner before watching, but Autocar teases that the finish is one of its closest drag races ever. Check out the video to find out just what that means.
This FL man accused of stealing drivers licenses has best tattoo ever
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Bentley and Porsche are two of the jewels in Volkswagen Group's luxury brand crown, but in Florida they also have a very tenuous connection with crime. With his multiple face and neck tattoos, including a Bentley logo right between his eyes, Derek Denesevich (pictured above) has been charged with the surprising crime of alleged identity theft. He recently surrendered to a Florida court, and could face seven years in prison, if convicted.
You might wonder where Porsche fits into this. According to the Sun Sentinel, Denesevich's accomplice was one Porscha Kyles, who worked for the Broward Clerk of Courts. She allegedly used her access to driver's license records to steal information and sell it to Denesevich. He is then accused of filing fraudulent income taxes to recoup the refund checks.
According to the Sentinel, Kyles has already pleaded guilty to conspiracy and identity theft and was sentenced to three years and one day in prison. The duo reportedly stole over 100 identities and made at least $120,000. Scroll down for a video about this pair of auto-related criminals.
