THIS IS AN AWESOME LOOKING AND DRIVING 1987 PORSCHE 911 THAT CAME FROM THE FACTORY AS TURBO LOOK CAR (I HAVE PORSCHE "CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY") THESE "TURBO LOOK" CARS OF THIS PERIOD CAME FROM THE FACTORY AS TURBO BODIED CARS WITH A FULL TURBO LOOK, TURBO SUSPENSION, TURBO SPOILERS, SPORT SEATS, WIDER PORSCHE POLISHED FUCH ALLOY TURBO WHEELS, SUPERIOR BRAKING SYSTEM, WIDE WHEEL ARCHES, AND "TEA-TRAY" SPOILER PLUS FRONT SPOILER. THE CAR WAS CONVERTED TO A FULL BLOWN TURBO SPEC CAR WITH THE ADDITION OF A VERY AGGRESSIVE PORSCHE TURBO ENGINE INCLUDING A LARGE GARRET TURBO, LARGE OIL INTERCOOLER, FORMULA I EXHAUST SYSTEM, DISTRIBUTOR-LESS IGNITION, RACE HEADERS, AND ADJUSTABLE BOOST. IT IS A ROCKET AND MORE THAN A BLAST TO DRIVE BEING VERY VERY FAST, AGILE, AND SUPERB SUSPENSION. I HAVE NOT RACED THE CAR BUT HAVE DRIVEN IT IN PORSCHE CLUB PARKING LOT RALLIES. WHAT FUN. THE PAINT IS EXCELLENT EXCEPT THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL WELL ARCH HAS A VERY SMALL PAINT CHIP WHERE A WHEEL WAS REMOVED AND PULLED. THE INTERIOR IS GOOD WITH NO RIPS OR TEARS THE DRIVERS SEAT HAS A SLIGHT RUB WHERE ENTERING AND EXITING WORE DYE ABOUT 3/4" X 1 1/2" THAT ALL IT NEEDS IS A DYE TOUCH UP. THE "STORY" WITH THIS CAR IS THAT IT ACCORDING TO AUTOCHECK AND CARFAX WAS STOLEN AND FOUND IN AN ABANDONED WAREHOUSE SOME 15 YEARS LATER, THE RIGHT DOOR WING WINDOW HAD BEEN BROKEN OUT AND THE GAS SMELLED LIKE VARNISH, THE COMPLETE FUEL SYSTEM WAS SUBSEQUENTLY REBUILT INCLUDING THE FUEL PUMPS, INJECTORS, AND TURBO CHARGER. NEW TIRES WERE INSTALLED AND I HAVE RECENTLY REPLACED THE TOP AND REBUILT THE CONVERTIBLE TOP MOTORS. YOU HAVE TO WORK THE TOP A LITTLE WHEN CYCLING THE GUY THAT REPLACED THE TOP SAID PORSCHE NEEDED TO ALIGN THE TOP FOR EASE OF OPERATION. THE TONNEAU COVER IS LIKE NEW. ON THE TITLE WHEN IT WAS PURCHASED BY PORSCHE HOUSE IN OKLAHOMA AFTER BEING FOUND IT CAME FROM ARIZONA ON A SALVAGE TITLE AS REQUIRED BY ARIZONA LAW, BUT AFTER INSPECTION OKLAHOMA PLACED IT ON A STANDARD TITLE AS DID TEXAS WHEN I BOUGHT IT. THIS IS SUBSTANTIATED BY CARFAX AND AUTOCHECK AS THEY SHOW SALVAGE TITLE IN ARIZONA BUT THEY ALSO SHOW NO MAJOR REPAIRS AND THE MILEAGE DISCREPANCY WAS DUE TO A CLERK MISREADING THE ODOMETER. MY PORSCHE MECHANIC HAS CHECKED THE CAR AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE IT CHECKED AND HE FEELS THAT THE MILEAGE IS CORRECT. MY MECHANIC ALSO FEELS THAT IT IS A VERY AGGRESSIVE TURBO ENGINE AND A "HELL OF A CAR". THE A/C WORKS AND MAY NEED A CAN OF FREON AND HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO NEW SPECS. IT DOES NOT LEAK OIL ALL OVER THE GARAGE FLOOR. IT HAS AN IN DASH BOOST GAGE. I WILL DO A TELEPHONE WALK AROUND WITH ANYONE THAT IS INTERESTED AND YOU MAY TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC IF YOU SO CHOOSE. THIS CAR LOOKS AND DRIVES GREAT, THE SOUND IS AWESOME, IT RUNS REALLY STRONG AND IS VERY VERY FAST. THIS CAR WOULD BE WORTH $46,000-$54,000 HAD IT NOT BEEN STOLEN AND TURBO ADD-ON BUT IT WAS DONE RIGHT AND IS ESSENTIALLY THAT CAR FOR A WHOLE LOT LESS.

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche adds third 919 Hybrid for Le Mans, Audi to heat factory with geothermal

Wed, Nov 26 2014

Porsche will be running a third 919 Hybrid LMP1 car in the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race. The extra Porsche will race in the six-hour May 2 WEC race at Spa-Francorchamps as a lead-up to the legendary 24-hour race on June 13 and 14. Porsche hasn't announced the driver lineup for the third 919 Hybrid, but drivers will remain the same for the other two cars. Including the third car is meant to help further test performance and efficiency as part of development for future hybrid systems. Read more at Green Car Congress. BMW i Ventures is investing in Zendrive, a driving focused data and analytics company. The cooperation of the two companies is meant to help advance safety and efficiency by making the "in-car mobility experience even smoother by optimizing commuting and driving patterns," according to BMW i's Ulrich Quay. The venture capital arm of BMW's i brand also invests in JustPark, Chargepoint, Life360, Chargemaster and MyCityWay, and says it will have more strategic investment announcements in the coming months. Read more in the press release below. The Audi Hungaria factory in Gyor, Hungary will soon be getting geothermal energy from a nearby plant being constructed in Per. When the facility is finished, Audi expects to source 82,000 megawatt hours of geothermal energy per year from it, or about six percent of its total heating needs. The clean energy helps Audi move "step by step along a path to developing a CO2-neutral production plant," says Audi's Dr. Hubert Waltl. "The mobility of the future must be CO2-neutral – and that applies not only to the use of our vehicles, but also to their production." Read more in the press release below. Supporters have begun a petition drive for the passage of an E15 ordinance in Chicago. Despite pushback from oil companies, the city council is close to passing the "Chicago Clean Air Choice Ordinance," which includes the requirement by retailers to sell the 15-percent ethanol gasoline blend in the city. The ordinance includes an exception for stations selling less than 850,000 gallons of fuel per year. More than 4,000 people have signed the petition so far, with others leaving messages to voice their opinion on the matter in opposition to Big Oil's attempt to block it. Read more at Domestic Fuel.

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?

Jay Leno chats with Magnus Walker about his 1972 Porsche 911 72STR

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Magnus Walker has stopped by the Big Dog Garage again to pay Jay Leno a visit in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage. This time, the Porsche builder brought along his 1972 911 72STR 002. Walker calls the machine his best build to date, and the car is a rolling "best of" from Porsches past, rocking some of the more attractive elements pulled from a wide arc of 911 model years. Of course, the machine also wears a few signature Walker touches, including flush-mount turning indicators, a center-hood fuel filler and plenty of louver work.
Unlike some of Walker's other creations, the 72STR 002 is clean enough to lick. Leno seems suitably impressed with the creation, and while apparently isn't typically a fan of Porsche models in general, Walker's tastefully modified 911 has him singing a different tune. You can check out the car in the video below.
