1985 Porsche 911 Targa I purchased this car on August 26 2013, at that time the car had 136,302 miles on it. I started with a great car and made it greater. This car is accident and rust free, the interior has no rips or tears and its mechanicals all work as they should. During my ownership I have done and installed the following.
The body color is "marmograu" which is white in appearance but when compared to a white car is the lightest shade of gray possible. This is a high quality repaint, this together with the blue leather interior is nothing less than stunning and probably one of a kind. The interior looks like a car with only 50,000 on it. The seats do not have wear on the bolsters, the dash has a cap installed but without mention you would never know it. The engine has just had the upper end rebuilt, this means no smoke at start up or ever. No leaks and No oil consumption. The factory "915" transmission works as it should. This car is lowered to a "euro" spec height and has been detailed by professionals with its classic black trim being restored to is original glory, factory optional "whale tail" spoiler this car is a true classic Porsche and catches everyone's eye as you go past. This car is presented with no dings or dents, no tears in the Targa top, door panels, seats or armrests. This car has no needs nor wants when you drive this car you are in a time machine. The only reason for the sale is another project has forced me into a reluctant sale. Don't buy a fixer upper if you can help it. These cars are expensive to restore and sort out, all of that has been done for you here. Spend the little extra and get a great car, this car, you will be much happier in the long run. Values on this car are only going to go up. This car will be worth another 5k-10k more in a few years! The reserve is set to Sell Now. Bid with confidence, I have had a lifelong obsession with great cars, this my friends is truly a great one. This car is sold as is, where is.

Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
Porsche to only build next Panamera in Leipzig?
Sun, 06 Oct 2013Manufacture of the next-generation Porsche Panamera could be moving, if a report from Reuters is true. The current-generation Panamera range has its bodies welded together and painted at a Volkswagen facility in Hanover before being shipped to Leipzig where final assembly takes place.
According to Reuters, Porsche is looking to cut VW out of the equation and focus production of the Panamera in Leipzig. While this could cost 800 of the 14,300 workers at Hanover their jobs, it's not entirely clear what Porsche stands to gain by the move. It recently invested 50- million euros (about $680 million at today's rates) on a paint and body shop for its Leipzig factory, ostensibly so the facility could have Macan production underway by that car's spring 2014 on-sale date. If the facility was also designed with next-generation Panamera production in mind, then Porsche's decision to put all of its eggs in one basket could make a lot of sense. It currently ships the semi-completed Panameras from Hanover to Leipzig, a distance of around 160 miles by road, and presumably it's a costly and time-consuming process.
The Leipzig factory produced 27,000 Panameras last year, although it's unclear just what its production capacity really is. Besides the Panamera and the upcoming Macan, the factory also builds the Porsche Cayenne.
Porsche becomes first company to rent out Vatican's Sistine Chapel
Fri, 17 Oct 2014We wouldn't go so far as to say God is a Porsche fan, but those in charge of one of the holiest Christian spots on our little blue marble are welcoming the German automaker into one of the religion's most revered and beautiful settings - the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. In so doing, Porsche will reportedly become the first company to rent out the holy hall for a corporate function.
Now, it's not like Pope Francis has signed off on Porsche doing do donuts in a 911 underneath Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. Instead, the Vatican has rented out the home of the Papal Conclave to the Porsche Travel Club, which will host a classical music concert. The Travel Club organizes events and tours across Europe for Porsche enthusiasts, with the Vatican concert just one part of a tour of Rome.
According to Automotive News Europe, Porsche will sell 40 tickets - at 5,000 euros each ($6,379) - to the event, while the Vatican has confirmed that the Pope will not be in attendance.
