Porsche 911 Turbo 2001, Arctic Silver/ Black 996. One Owner, 15k Miles. 6 Speed. on 2040-cars
Longwood, Florida, United States
|
As an owner of 911's and a PCA member, for 35 years, I am selling the car I planned to keep forever. I waited for 2 years and bought one of the earliest 996 911 turbo's. Some say this is the best as Porsche toleranced the engine for low drag losses. The car was purchased from Porsche of Orlando and has been maturely driven. Check the condition of the original front tires and brake disks on the photos. All the original promotional items, books, keys, sticker, and receipts are included. This is great opportunity to acquire a superb unadulterated example of the earliest version of this landmark car at the lowest point in its depreciation.
Condition The car has always been garaged in an air conditioned environment and kept in Florida, covered from UV. There has been no accidents, damage or repair work. The rims are original with no scrapes or curb rash. The paint work is like new. There may be one or two very very small stone chips on close examination, but there are no scratches or dents. There is a patch of leather in the left side dash top near the windshield that shows signs of adhesion failure. I have tried to highlight it in the photos. The spare tire and kit has never been used. The rear seats may have been used twice. I have never had a puncture or breakdown. Never smoked in. Leather treated with 2 stage Leatherique. Service and replacement items. Porsche of Orlando has done the servicing since new. At 13,939 miles, they replaced the clutch booster accumulator and did a second brake flush. There was a leak from one of the wing raising hydraulic pistons and I replaced the entire hydraulics including pump just recently at ~15,000 miles. A couple of spots on the interior plastic were sticky and I cleaned them with oven cleaner to remove the stickiness. This is a common issue on European cars like Ferrari's etc. This car has been super reliable and nothing else has failed. At approximately 14,500 miles, the rear tires were replaced with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 N3. Extras Included I bought a black optional bra to protect the front end and used it twice. At 10,161 miles a Speed Technologies stainless exhaust was installed by the Dealer as I thought the exhaust note was a little too quiet for such a fast car! The original system is available for the buyer and can easily be refitted to maintain complete stock configuration. No tuning or ECM modifications have been done. The car comes fully equipped as standard with PSM, e-gas. ABD, Bi-Xenon vertically steerable headlights, electronic sliding roof with tilt (used twice!), rear wiper, headlight washers, memory seats, 10 speakers. |

2015 Porsche 918 Spyder: Touring the factory
Wed, Dec 3 2014Willy Wonka granted just five lucky Golden Ticket holders access to his incredible chocolate factory, yet we consider ourselves just as fortunate, as Porsche invited us to be among the first of just four American journalists to see behind the closed doors of its 918 Spyder assembly plant in Zuffenhausen, Germany. Of course, there were no Oompa Loompas or flowing chocolate rivers, but the vast white hall tasked with producing only 918 examples of the automaker's limited-production flagship revealed details that make Wonka's Golden Egg sorting room seem rather mundane in comparison. Unlike a traditional automobile manufacturing plant, which often encompass all processes of making a vehicle (e.g., stamping steel panels, welding components and painting), the 918 Spyder is built in an assembly plant. This means that hundreds of already manufactured parts, each crafted by Porsche offsite suppliers, are brought under one roof to be assembled into a perfectly finished product that is much sweeter – and far more expensive – than any candy delicacy. Our tour guide was Michael Drolshagen, Porsche's Director of Production, Logistics and Quality - a walking encyclopedia when it comes to the engineering and assembly of the 918 Spyder. Drolshagen generously offered us unrestricted access to walk among the factory's 110 workers – and a couple-dozen vehicles in process – to photograph everything. This is a story best told with pictures, so we've put together a raft of our best images in a high-resolution gallery and captioned each with a detailed description. If you've still got questions, please voice them in Comments section and we'll do our best to answer.
Petrolicious studies the purity of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS
Thu, 17 Oct 2013Water-cooled Porsches are superior to the old, air-cooled models. This really isn't up for debate, despite the mob of Porsche purists, with pitchforks and torches in hand, currently descending on the Autoblog offices. Water-cooled models are more powerful and easier to live with, two factors that make modern Porsches just so darn amazing.
And while we won't hear arguments on anything we've written above, we will say that the old air-cooled models, while not superior, are just, somehow, better. They sound better - a lot better. They're simple, elemental and wildly entertaining things, that just beg for more and more. They rev in a way that forces drivers to work to unlock their power, rather than just push their right foot down. Part of the appeal of air-cooled Porsches, in addition to what we just listed, are the gorgeous cars they're slotted into, like the subject of the latest video from Petrolicious.
Starring a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, this video is a bit shorter than recent ones, but it's no less exciting. This 911, complete with it's sweet-sounding exhaust is the kind of simple, entertaining thing we can watch over and over. Scroll down for the full video.
GoPro checks out Tokyo's automotive night life in 4K
Thu, Nov 6 2014There's something bizarrely fascinating about Japanese car culture, especially around Tokyo. The metropolis packs people tightly together in a way that would seem to make owning any car tough. And yet, there's still enough enthusiasm around anything with an engine to support everything from wildly tuned bosozoku rides with exhaust pipes reaching toward the sky to seriously fast Porsche and Lamborghini models. To promote its latest Hero4 camera, GoPro has embarked on a short film series called Adventure of Life in 4K, and the latest installment goes inside Japan's speed scene with some gorgeous cinematography of vibrant vehicles rocketing through the city. It's all mixed over more serene images of Tokyo landscapes that combine to form a mini-documentary that's a feast for the eyes.
