Porsche 911 Carrera 911 G50 on 2040-cars
Murfreesboro, Tennessee, United States
1987 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 G50 Coupe low miles and rare color combination. It is a 3 owner car from new, I am the 3rd owner on the car. It is all original, no accidents, no paint work, no interior work. This car drives out beautifully. I have put about 1500 miles on the car after doing a major service on it (valve adjustment, oil change, filters, spark plugs), and the car hasn't skipped a beat. Driving the car it is very smooth and tight on the road. The power comes on smooth and strong without hesitation. Car starts up right away every time. Steering is very tight and the 911 drives straight and firm. The G50 transmission lives up to its reputation and shifts flawlessly up and down. Clutch feels great as well and the brakes feel like new. Inside the car, the interior is still soft and full of life...the AC actually works and works well. This is a rust free all original car that is just a pleasure to drive. All this....rare colors combined with the well desired G50 transmission make this late model Carrera a perfect fit for a collector or someone interested in a true classic 911. Details: Mechanical: -Stock 3.2 which is known as one of Porsche's bulletproof engines. Engine is very strong and smooth. Does not smoke other than the typical 911 startup puff. Valves were just adjusted along with oil change, fuel filter, spark plugs and general oil leaks addressed. Case does not leak oil. The engine has turbo valve covers and cat bypass pipe as well. Exterior: -Rare color which comes off as a slight purple/blue. It is a metallic known as Cassis Red from the factory. The paint shines up very well, absolutely no rust on the car externally or underneath. Car has never been painted. There are some scrapes and scratches around the car that appear to be parking lot related. Also the car has the typical rock chips on the front bumper and mirrors. Body panels are all straight with the exception of a couple minor dings. I have shown these in the photos I've included at the end of this description (over 200 photos of the entire car). underneath the car is in great shape. Floors are straight, fuel tank straight, rockers straight. And once again, no rust. Interior: -Inside the car is very amazing for the car's age. Leather looks and feels new. The dash is not raised or cracked, No sagging of the headliner, and the carpets are near perfect. Once again, detailed photos on the link below. The AC holds a charge, and blows nice and cool. Heat, windows, fans, locks, lights all work as well. This car was not optioned with central locking. However it was optioned with power seats, and an alarm. Sunroof works great, no leaks. Car has books (owners manual missing), spare tire, wheel locks, tools and jack. Suspension/Brakes: -Stock suspension and brakes. New brake pads all around, rotors are excellent and the car has brand new pad sensors. Car was optioned with 15 inch wheels show well for their age, no curb rash.

Porsche ready to pick itself up after Le Mans failure
Mon, 23 Jun 2014It's safe to say that things for Porsche didn't go quite as well at Le Mans this year as it might have hoped. After a sixteen-year gap, the winningest manufacturer in endurance racing history returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe this year hoping maybe not for outright victory in its first time back, but definitely a strong finish on which it could build on for next year. All the while it undoubtedly hoped its 911s would hold their own in the GT classes.
Unfortunately for Porsche, neither happened. After racing around the clock, and despite actually leading the festivities for some time, the best its 919 Hybrid could manage was an eleventh-place finish, lagging lamentably behind not only the other LMP1s (like the race-winning Audi) but also a handful of LMP2s. Meanwhile the LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am titles went to the factory-backed teams of its arch-rivals Ferrari and Aston Martin, respectively.
Not a stellar result, in other words, but Porsche is taking it all in stride - accepting that it has a ways to go while congratulating its vanquishing rivals in the video below. It's good sportsmanship if we've ever seen it. Next year's race starts now.
Five reasons to love, or hate, the culture of German cars
Thu, Mar 5 2015A few months back, we took a 500-foot view of the culture of American cars, dissecting prides and prejudices on our way to the conclusion that automotive allegiances can be simultaneously embraced and derided. We had so much fun with the narrative that we decided to do it again, this time taking a look at Germany and its world-renowned lineup of automakers, including the likes of Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Volkswagen, among others. Join us below as we discuss the points and counterpoints that make or have made the German auto industry what it is today. And remember, Germany did pretty much invent the automobile, after all... The V12 Engine If America is known for the proliferation of the V8 engine, an argument could be made that Germany owns the V12. Yes, of course, other companies have created V12 engines – Ferrari, Jaguar and Lamborghini immediately come to mind – but the big 12-cylinder powerplants from BMW and Mercedes-Benz, in particular, have proven to be some of the most effortless, luxurious and downright over-built engines the world has ever seen. These days, having 12 cylinders is more a case of wretched excess than ever before, and yet, you can still stroll into your local BMW or Mercedes dealership and get a brand-new 760i, S600 or even an over-the-top G65 AMG, efficiency be damned. Best of all, since the majority of these German powerhouses depreciate as fast as an anchor sinks, nearly any auto enthusiast who dreams of a dozen cylinders can satisfy their carnal desires. Current Star: 2016 Mercedes-Maybach S600 View 28 Photos Diesel Engines Remember how we talked about those glorious V12 engines? Well, you can even get one from Audi that runs on diesel. If your compression-ignition fantasies err more on the side of fuel savings, that's no problem, either. Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Volkswagen have got you covered, with engines starting as small as 800 cubic centimeters (Smart Fortwo). If you want something a little more practical, it's hard to argue with a VW Golf TDI, which will provide plenty of space for you and three of your best friends, plus a fair bit of luggage, all while returning 50-ish miles per gallon. For the purposes of this discussion, we'd rather focus on the asinine levels of torque provided by Germany's high-end diesel engines than the lower-end fuel sippers.
Porsche in Paul Walker fatal accident was traveling over 100 mph before crash
Fri, 03 Jan 2014The Porsche Carrera GT involved in the November crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and racer Roger Rodas was traveling at speeds above 100 miles per hour before Rodas lost control for "unknown reasons," according to a report from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office that has been acquired by The Hollywood Reporter.
Once control was lost, the Porsche spun, hit a curb and then impacted a tree and a light post, then it spun 180 degrees and hit another tree before erupting in flames, the report said. Neither Walker nor Rodas were under the influence of any drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, according to toxicology reports conducted by the coroner.
As for the future of the Fast and Furious franchise, a separate by The Hollywood Reporter claims director James Wan, writer Chris Morgan and Universal Studios will move forward with the seventh installment in the franchise, which was only partially completed when Walker was killed.
