This is my 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera coupe with 61,200 miles which was purchased new by Cleveland Indians Major League Baseball All-Star pitcher Charles Nagy.
This is one of the best-condition 996-model 911s you will find for sale anywhere- this is superb-condition vehicle.
I admit, I'm a Porsche lover. I've had nearly every model of Porsche made in the last 30 years, and I love Porsches of all kinds. To me they are the perfect balance of reliability, performance, comfort and uniqueness.
Of course, the ultimate Porsche is and always has been the 911. I particularly love this 996 version because of its styling, available options and superb driving experience. There is no other car that combines this level of performance with everyday drivability and total reliability.
I chose this particular 911 very specifically. I wanted a 2WD hardtop with a 6-speed and the upgraded interior. I don't care for the 4WD system because it numbs the steering and slows the car down off the line. Convertibles are a huge compromise and I didn't want that either. The only transmission I even considered was this 6-speed manual. And finally, the base 911 interior is cheap and chintzy, so I wanted the upgraded full-leather-and-wood interior. I also wanted a color that you don't see every day, and this Ocean Blue Metallic is a rare and beautiful color.
This 911 is one of the most well-balanced, comfortable and capable cars I've ever driven. This is truly an enthusiast's gem.
This car has a superb, yet not overloaded list of options in addition to the huge list of standard equipment-
- 296HP Engine
- 6-speed Manual Transmission
- Ocean Blue Metallic Paint
- All Leather Seats and Interior Package (Savanna Beige)
- Light Real Wood Package
- Light Maplewood Steering Wheel
- Heated Front Seats
- 18" Turbo Cast Wheels
- Wheel Caps with Colored Crest
- HiFi Sound Package w/Speakers
- AM/FM Radio with CD Player
In all the car has $6922 in options, for a total as-delivered price of $78,222.
This is just an outstanding car. I cannot describe the exhilaration you feel hearing that hyper-mechanical flat-6 engine behind you as you accelerate through a turn. This car has amazing balance and handling- the limits are so high that I cannot push this car even close to its capability. While this is a sports car, it is also a comfortable luxury car. The leather and wood interior is gorgeous, and the car has every feature you could want, and none that you don't. This particular 911 is one of the best examples you will ever find of a pure driving and luxury experience in a Porsche.
This car has never been in any accidents, and it has all-original paint. The paint and body are in excellent condition. The Carfax report is clean and clear and I have the clear OH title in hand and ready to transfer. The car has been immaculately cared-for since new, and it has always been garaged. I have the original window sticker, plus all the original books and manuals, plus the service booklet which has been stamped by the servicing dealer. I also have three keys with the car. This car was sold new at Stoddard Porsche, one mile from my house in Willoughby, OH.
The interior in full-leather and real Maplewood is beautiful and in excellent condition. The leather, carpets and upholstery are clean and in very good condition for the age. Unlike many 911 interiors, this one has been cared for and doesn't have broken/worn plastics and switchgear- it is clean, pristine and looks excellent.
This car starts, runs and drives beautifully. The engine is smooth and powerful, the transmission shifts perfectly, the clutch is strong and the steering is tight and precise. The suspension is tight yet compliant, the brakes stop well and there are no warning lights illuminated. This car drives like a dream and there are no known mechanical issues. The acceleration is strong, the braking and handling are superb, and the car handles and drives as well as any car you can buy. This is a totally solid, reliable and dependable car with no known issues.
Everything works- the A/C is cold, all the power options and equipment are working, the sunroof and windows work properly, the rear spoiler works, there are no warning lights on, etc. This is a no-worries car.
The tires have good tread remaining, the radio buttons aren't worn down, there are no oil leaks, nor any known RMS/IMS issues. The car is straight and clean down the sides with no paintwork ever.
This is a totally reliable, no-worries 911 that you can drive and enjoy right now.
The next oil change is not due until 64,155 miles.
This is a 1999 car, not a 2014. It isn't brand new, but it is exceptionally nice. A couple of tiny issues to note: there are a few minor stone nicks on the nose, and a few tiny paint scratches here and there. There are a couple minor scratches on the wheels, and some of the genuine wood trim in the interior is cracked a bit. All of this is far less than average wear and tear. This is a superbly clean, totally reliable car that I'd trust to drive to California and back.
This is a no reserve listing, but I have a number in my head that would buy the car now. Call me to discuss.
This car is kept in my garage in Willoughby, OH.
You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home. You may also choose to have the car shipped- I highly recommend Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When 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.
First-ever Porsche headed home to company museum
Wed, 29 Jan 2014About 30 years before Ferdinand Porsche designed the Volkswagen Beetle, he created the Egger-Lohner electric vehicle, C.2 Phaeton model - or simply, the P1 - you see above. This was the first vehicle created by Porsche, and the car gets its nickname from the fact that he had stamped "P1" on many of the parts marking it as the first Porsche... sorry, 356 No. 1.
Now while you'd think that such an important piece of Porsche heritage has been in a museum or even the automaker's not-so-secret lair, it has actually been sitting at a warehouse for the last 112 years. Thankfully, that's all about to change as Porsche has recovered P1, and the car will soon be on "permanent display" at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
The P1 has a 3 horsepower motor capable of delivering a top speed of 21 miles per hour and a driving range of 49 miles, and, like many vehicles in Porsche's history, the motor is positioned at the rear of the vehicle. According to the press release posted below, the P1 finished first in a 24-mile electric vehicle race in Berlin in 1899, but it has been sitting since 1902.
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.
