Porsche: 911 40th Anniversary Edition Coupe 2-door on 2040-cars
Powell, Ohio, United States
Behold a practically pristine 911 Special 40th Anniversary Edition. This car is amazing. It is a mini rocket ship. The acceleration and cornering is unparalleled. Of the total of1963 of these made this one is stamped 1327. This is a special, unique car with no compromise. If you have not driven a Porsche before you can’t believe how much fun this is on a windy stretch of rural road. This can be your chance to own a 911 special edition car. One previous owner and I have put most all the miles on this car. I bought this car in 2014 from a true Porschefile in PA. He was an aging gent, named John, who had three other 911’s and wanted to have this one find a new home to which I was the beneficiary. He babied this car for 10 years. He and his sons spent every weekend just fawning over their Porsches. This car has been my daily driver. It handles masterfully. I’ve kept it in peak shape with regular service at the local Porsche shop in Albany, NY. They are pros. Recent service included a new clutch, flywheel, cat converters, new IMS and RMS. She has been well pampered. Oil changes have been religious with the best quality synthetic oil. There are other simple things about this car that are fun on top of what an overall blast it is to drive. For example, this is a rare 911 that simply says “911” on the back and in the driver and passenger doorways unlike most that just say “Carrera”. People are shocked when I tell them the age of the car as it looks so fresh and I commonly get asked if I recently got it new. There is a community of spirited, devoted 40th Anniversary 911 owners out there that stay in touch through this well maintained Facebook global community of owners here. It’s good to know the stories of Porsches that have had a few owners. I would argue that a vehicle of these years with some miles on it is a good thing. It means it’s been driven well every day and hasn’t sat around. Cars like this love to be driven often and hard. Beware the garage queen. Whether you are a collector or a first time Porsche owner this car is a true find. To find a perfect 911 like this for under $35K is a deal. Features include: Natural Grey Full Leather, it is one of Porsches most attractive color combinations. This 911 is extensively equipped with factory options 18 Carrera Light Alloy Wheels, Comfort Package w/Power Package, Bose Premium Sound System, Porsche Stability Management(PSM), Remote CD Changer, Heated Supple Leather Seats, Center Console painted in exterior color, 3-Spoke Multifunction Steering Wheel, Lumbar Support, Bi-Xenon Headlights, On Board Computer, Power Seat Package (w/3-Way Driver Seat Memory), Power Moonroof, CD Changer, Rear Window Wiper, Bi-Xenon Headlights, Rain Sensing Windshield Wipers, 6-Speed Manual Transmission, as well as extensive additional equipment. I have both keys and the books.

Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
Porsche 356 Outlaw is the other Continental
Wed, 25 Jun 2014In Porsche parlance, 'outlaw' basically means 'hot rod,' and that definition can vary from person to person. For Jack Griffin and his 1955 Porsche 356 Continental, it means taking a great car to start with and reworking it to become a classic coupe that fits its driver perfectly. The latest video from Petrolicious highlights Griffin's 356 and all of the personalization he has in the beautiful ride.
Griffin acquired this 356 in 1994, but it came in rough shape. That made it the perfect canvas to transform the coupe into the Porsche of his dreams. On the outside, only things like the hood-mounted fuel filler, louvered decklid and Fuchs wheels give it away as something special, but underneath, it is modernized to be a faster, more robust car. Griffin considers it "a piece of art on wheels."
Hearing the Continental name associated with Griffin's Porsche might be throwing you, since it's normally more associated with Lincoln, but Griffin tells the whole story of what makes it so special on his '55 in the video. Scroll down to get an automotive history lesson and check out this fantastic 356 hot rod.
Porsche 960 could come with quad-turbo flat-eight engine
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Getting a bead on the target that is the so-called Porsche 960 is not easy, as the target keeps moving. First labeled the 960, then the 961, and now back to being called the 960, it is Porsche's take on a supercar specifically aimed at Ferrari - the latest report in Automobile says that Porsche's internal moniker for it is "FeFi," which stands for "Ferrari Fighter." Because it is expected to cost as much as the top-tier V12 Ferrari, Porsche wants the engine solution to justify the price tag. That means, according to author Georg Kacher, a 3.9-liter, quad-turbo flat-eight engine with 650 horsepower.
Last summer, the engine was mooted to be a twin-turbo flat six. A few months later, the rumor was that it would use the 4.6-liter V8 from the 918 and have about 570 horsepower. This new mid-engine configuration would be quite the leap, giving the 960 more power than the 918 Spyder (pictured) and 911 GT2 RS, and utilize other tech features like four adjustable camshafts and "a complex multistage intake manifold." In this scenario, power would be run through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive.
Build materials are still slated to be a hodgepodge of materials including aluminum, steel, carbon fiber, titanium and magnesium. The boosted flat-eight, all-wheel drive and a 3,000-pound weight could get the 960 from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds. Since it is looking squarely at Ferrari, the idea that the 960 will be a "four-door coupe" can probably be put to rest. For now.
