Porsche 911 Carrera 2 on 2040-cars
Millcreek, Illinois, United States
**Pics of front lower bumper area is just wax, not scratches. Type in ismejia on flicker to see video. Not great but hope it helps.Updated 6/24: Forgot to mention that car has Steve Wong chip. This is a real nice common upgrade on 911's. Chip makes a considerable difference by reducing sub 4000 rpm lag and making vehicle more spirited. Also improved torque and throttle response. Please google 911 chips for more info. Description: Up for sale is my gorgeous example of a rare Slate Gray 964. I have documented service history and maintenance going back over 16 years. All body lines are straight, and she drives and pulls wonderfully. A/C is ice cold and all mechanical functions work as they should. Plenty of power in engine. Interior has no tears, rips, or odors and is all original except for head unit. I have original and functional Blaukpunkt stereo that came with vehicle. Please note that original stereo will be included with sale. My car was upgraded with lighter weight OEM Porsche Cup 2 wheels with professionally powder coated finish to last for years to come. Again, I have original wheels and will include with sale of car. Tires are Bridgestone Potenzas. They are newer and have 75-80% thread remaining. Cup 2 wheels are in fantastic condition with no scratches or curb rash. I invested almost $2k this past month on engine maintenance (all receipts will be given to new owner). New spark plugs, valve cover gaskets, and valve adjustments. Rear calipers were upgraded to bigger OEM Porsche calipers. These provide better overall braking and is a common, but expensive mod on these cars. Also, suspension was upgraded with Bilstein adjustable struts. Clutch was replaced by Porsche dealer at 30K miles. Dash is in good condition with no tears. Car has not been tracked or raced. Only high quality Brad Penn oil used. This is a Clean Carfax car. Drivetrain: Engine and transmission are in perfect working order. Transmission does not slip and it holds the power as it should, motor pulls very strong. Axle boots are in good condition, all wear components have been gone recently inspected. Brake pads are fairly new and have plenty of life left. Like I said, new plugs, valve cover gaskets and valve adjustment were done last week. A new Porsche OEM oil cooler was installed last week due to small leak. This is a dependable driver that needs a new home. I'm only selling due to family situation. Interior: Interior is all original and very nice. I am a non smoking owner. All original manuals and original keys come with the car. Additionally, car has complete and original tool kit. Only thing I miss-placed was original cigarette lighter knob. I have to look harder but I think it's in my garage somewhere. Exterior: The exterior is all original. It does have a few rock chips here and there. This should be expected from a 25 year old car with original paint. Sunroof functions perfectly, and there are absolutely no signs of rust anywhere. Overall the paint is very nice. I would rate it a 9/10. Air cooled 911's are harder and harder to find in this condition. Please look around and you will see what I'm talking about.

Audi outlasts rivals to win 13th Le Mans title
Sun, 15 Jun 2014As is so often the case, the 2014 Le Mans was a war of attrition, and Audi managed to prevail once again after all 24 hours had been recorded in the history books, with its Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro claiming first and second places, followed by Toyota in third. Drivers Marcel Fassler, Andre Lotterer and Benoit Treluyer inherited the lead in their No. 2 Audi after the No. 7 Toyota, driven by pole-sitter Kazuki Nakajima, was forced to retire with electrical problems in the 15th hour.
The No. 2 Audi led the race until it was forced to the pits to replace a turbocharger in the 17th hour, allowing the No. 1 Audi, driven by Lucas di Grassi, Marc Gene (who was a last-minute replacement for Loic Duval, who crashed hard during practice) and defending champion Tom Kristensen, led the race until the 21st hour, when it too had to pit with turbocharger issues. This gave the No. 20 Porsche of Timo Bernhard, Brendon Hartley, and Mark Webber the lead until it was forced off the track with gearbox problems, eventually finishing in 38th position.
In LMP2, the Jota Sport Zytek Z11SN-Nissan driven by Simon Dolan, Harry Tincknell and Oliver Turvey claimed victory, the first five LMP2 finishers all powered by Nissan. Down a level in GTE-Pro, No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari 458 Italia GT2 driven by Gianmaria Bruni, Toni Vilander and Giancarlo Fisichella finished one lap ahead of the leading Corvette Racing C7.R. And finally, the No. 95 Aston Martin Racing Vantage GTE driven by Kristian Poulsen, David HeinemeierHansson and Nicki Thiim won the GTE-Am race two laps ahead of a Proton Porsche 911 GT3 RSR.
Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.
