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.

Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
Porsche 911 GT3 dukes it out with MP4-12C on track and GT-R on spectacular roads
Thu, 22 Aug 2013The Porsche 911 GT3 has always been a favorite among auto journalists and car enthusiasts alike, but with the introduction of the new 991-generation GT3, which is the first GT3 with electric power steering and no manual gearbox option, how does it stack up to the competition from McLaren and Nissan?
Evo's Jethro Bovingdon attempts to answer that question by pitting the rear-engine Porsche against the mid-engine McLaren MP4-12C on a racetrack and the front-engine, all-wheel-drive Nissan GT-R on some amazing, twisty European back roads. We won't give away the victor of either comparison, but we will say that, in Evo's test, the McLaren's 141-horsepower advantage doesn't give it as much of an edge over the Porsche on a racetrack as one might think, and the lack of a manual gearbox and the inclusion of electric power steering on the GT3 isn't detrimental to enjoying the car on a back road.
Watch the video below to find out which car Bovingdon prefers on road and track - we think you'll be happy to see him drift around turns every chance he gets.
Nick Murray's problematic Porsche 911 shows the power of a viral video
Fri, 18 Apr 2014When Nick Murray took delivery of his 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera S in June 2013, he had saved for it for the past five years. He didn't just pluck a random 911 off a dealer lot. He specially ordered his car with thousands of dollars in extras tailored just to him, and he captured all of the options on his YouTube channel. The love affair didn't last long. Eventually the channel became a place for Nick to air his growing list of grievances about his deteriorating 911. Eventually, his mix of righteous indignation and sarcasm went viral.
By late December, he had already had four warranty repairs done on the car. Things got much worse in March. The computers began resetting whenever Nick drove over large bumps. There was also an acrid, electrical smell that occasionally permeated the cabin. Murray filed for Lemon Law protection. Porsche Cars North America contacted him for the first time to fix the problem, but it didn't help.
Things culminated in April when Murray put up a new video that showed more troubles. He began arbitration with Porsche and asked for either his full purchase price back or an exact replacement. The company countered with a portion of what the car was worth, based on its mileage. Murray refused and turned to his YouTube watchers for help. He asked them to spread the word, and the video went viral with over 800,000 views as of this writing. Supporters posted it multiple times on Porsche's Facebook and Twitter sites.
