Malvern, Pennsylvania, United States

2004 Porsche 911 Cabriolet, 6-speed manual.  British racing green exterior, camel brown leather interior.  Brand new black convertible top. 

 

This is a 2 owner car.  Purchased new in late 2004 from Pacific Porsche in Southern California.  The car spent its entire life in So Cal (Hermosa Beach, to be specific which is a very affluent area) until I purchased the car 15 months ago and had it shipped to me in Philadelphia.  It was owned by a man in his mid-to-late 50’s is my guess on his age.  Since I have had the car I have put approximately 2,500 miles on it and have had it garaged the entire time.  I have put a brand new top on it as well as did some minor mechanical work to it – tune up, oil change, and new battery…

 

On the outside the car is a 9.5 out of 10.  Not a scratch/dent/or blemish to be found on the car except a few rock chips on the front.  Tires are in very good shape, rims are perfect.  As previously mentioned, there is also a brand new convertible top.   Mechanically it is pretty much perfect.  I had it checked out by a Porsche mechanic and he gave it a clean bill of health.    The inside:  I would rate this car an 8 out of 10.  The dash, door panels, and carpet are all in phenomenal shape.  The only reason I rank it as an ‘8’ is that each one of the leather seats could use some patchwork.  I  detailed the small issues in the pics as accurately and honestly as I can.  The seats despite the two small holes, they are in good shape.  If you want this car to be a 10 in every aspect, you could certainly redo the seats.  I have gotten some estimates to redo both seats to the exact dye of the Porsche leather and it will run approx. 2K.  I’m sure you could get it done quite a bit cheaper but those are the quotes to do the entire job perfectly. 

 

I have babied all of my cars but I am getting rid of many of my toys – I have a 2007 BMW 550i (also a stick shift) that is in absolutely flawless shape as well as my 1986 Volvo 240 (again, 5 speed manual) that is in superb shape, and a Wellcraft 22 foot bow rider.   

 

 

I have included pics but can get more upon request.  Below is the carfax report that I kept from my purchase last year.  Do not let the miles fool you.  This is one of Porsche’s best engines produced.  If properly cared for and not abused, this car can easily top 200K miles as the engine is near indestructible on these cars.  This is a prime reason I bought it but due to some unforeseen life changes I am selling many of my possessions.    I am selling this as a very low reserve auction.  I will aid in shipping the car or can show the car personally if you are local.

Porsche 959 Prototype started it all

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

While Porsche was unveiling the new Nürburgring-dominating 918 Spyder downstairs in Hall 3 here at the Frankfurt Messe, there was another Porsche supercar quietly and discretely on display upstairs in the same hall. That, of course, was the 959. But not just any 959: this was the original Gruppe B prototype.
The 959 was first developed as a rally car in the early 80s to compete with the likes of the original Audi Sport Quattro S1, Ford RS200 and Lancia Delta S4. But Zuffenhausen soon saw its potential as a production road-going supercar, emerging as a technological marvel to challenge the decidedly linear approach of the Ferrari F40. It still stands as a groundbreaking supercar in its own right, but also lead to the first all-wheel-drive 911 Turbo and set the stage for the Carrera GT and aforementioned 918 Spyder that followed to cap the top of the evolving Porsche range.
This original Gruppe B prototype, which presaged the production 959, packed a 450-horsepower 2.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six into an even sleeker form than the final version that followed. We caught up with it on display as part of a display of 80s German classics, of which this 959 prototype immediately stood out as the pick of the proverbial litter. Check out the hotness in the high-resolution image gallery above.

The 2017 Porsche 911 RSR goes mid-engine, purists be damned

Wed, Nov 16 2016

Porsche unveiled its World Endurance Championship and IMSA WeatherTech Championship competitor with the 2017 911 RSR. And this 911 is different from the rest, as the 4.0-liter flat-six engine powering this beast is in front of the rear axle, not behind it. That's right, this 24 Hours of Le Mans competitor ditches the iconic rear-engine layout. Porsche isn't talking specifics on how exactly things are arranged back there. The engine is new, now based on the 991 911's block instead of the previous Mezger motor that's been used for years. The transmission design is new as well – it would have to be to accommodate the new location relative to the engine. The racecar has been engineered to meet the LM-GTE class, where it will go up against other mid-engine cars like the Ford GT and Ferrari 488 GTE. Moving the engine to the middle has given Porsche the ability to fit the 911 RSR with massive bits of aero, like the humongous rear diffuser that looks like it would be more at home on a machine of war. The only thing that can compete with the diffuser for size is the top-mounted rear wing, which shares a similar design to the one found on the 919 Hybrid. Going back to the engine, the direct-injected boxer motor, depending on the size of the restrictor, generates as much as 510 horsepower and sends all of its fury to the rear wheels. The engine is paired to a six-speed sequential gearbox, which drivers can employ through paddles on the steering wheel. The new engine doesn't have a lot of weight to push around as the 911 RSR, as required by regulations, weighs 2,740 pounds. Speaking of weight, the engine layout isn't the only change for the 911 RSR. For 2017, the car ditches its steel body for one that's made out of carbon fiber. The body attaches to the chassis via quick-release fasteners, making the vehicle easier to service as exterior elements can be removed with minimal effort. The racecar also gets a radar-based collision system – aptly named the "Collision Avoid System" – which is meant to limit the 911 RSR's encounters with faster LMP prototypes. Only time will tell if the new layout and aerodynamic components help the 911 RSR beat its competition. But there will be plenty of opportunities to see the racecar in action as Porsche plans to run the 911 RSR in 19 races during the 2017 season, the first of which will take place at the IMSA opener on January 28th at Daytona, where the racecar will make its track day debut.

Porsche expects to hit 200k sales target 3 years early

Fri, Jan 9 2015

When Porsche launched the Cayenne, enthusiasts and purists – in between fits of rage – rationalized the SUVs existence by imagining that the money it brought in would guarantee the company's continued ability to produce the many beloved versions of its 911. The same was said when the Panamera arrived, and again when the Macan was unveiled. What probably wasn't imagined when these three more mainstream vehicles joined the Porsche catalog, was how dramatic an impact they'd have on the company's sales figures. The company expects 2015 to be a banner year, as it aims to hit a 200,000-unit sales goal three years ahead of schedule. Porsche sold nearly 190,000 units in 2014, a gain of 17 percent over 2013, while its year-over-year sales for December were up 39 percent. Considering Porsche made these gains before the full impact of the new Macan could be felt, it's no wonder the company is so keen on 2015. Porsche has already moved 45,000 Macans, which would be impressive on its own, were it not for the way the CUV is elevating the brand. According to a report from Reuters, two-thirds of the company's Macan deliveries have been to first-time Porsche customers. Considering these two facts, it will be extremely interesting to see the impact Porsche's newest model has on its sales over a full calendar year.
