Hard to find original 1987, Targa.  Low mileage, same owner 18 years.  Same mechanic 18 years.  This car is near perfect with under 50,000 miles.  The car has just been serviced by Autobahn Extremist (it is the first customer of this nationally renowned shop in Rocky River, Ohio).  On March 13, 2013, all four tires were replaced, the oil and the brake fluid were changed.  The car was inspected and no issues were found.  It is ready for spring enjoyment.  


Cosmetically the car has completly original paint and leather.  The leather shows minor wear on the door handle pulls.  The seats show no wear.  The carpets are excellent. The weatherstrip on the driver's door shows light wear.  The targa top is excellent.  The exterior paint is excellent with a few stone chips.  There is a small ding in the front valance panel.  There is a nick near the left rear tire. There is a small ding in the front hood and one on the engine compartment.  

What makes this car standout is the originality....the never used tool roll is in place, the air compressor is present and perfect, the manuals are all present, the original sticker is included.  The courtesy gloves for changing the spare are present and unopened.  

These air-cooled, and particularly G50 cars are appreciating.  This car represents a great opportunity to enjoy an unmolested original that will likely appreciate. The only needs to make this car show perfect are to detail the paint and attend to the dings.  This car is a superb driver and is one of the best air cooled Porsches ever offered.  Take a look at 911 S prices and get a better understanding of the upside on this car. This car can be driven and enjoyed now as it is.  Later, detail it for show and investment.   

There are less expensive cars on the market.  This car offers hard to find originallity.  With the price of parts and labor one could easily surpass this price with a lower quality non-original car being restored to factory original.  

Pre purchase inspections are encouraged.  Should you have questions please call 216.570.6034.

2014 Porsche Panamera 4S Executive

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

If the idea of a Porsche sedan (or, long hatchback) is still off-putting to you, then you might want to look away now. For 2014, the polarizing Panamera has received a midcycle refresh bringing slightly different styling, as well as adding two new models to the lineup, the S E-Hybrid and the stretched-wheelbase Executive. Having focused most of my recent trip to Germany on a First Drive of the intriguing plug-in Panamera, I also got to spend some time with the roomier Executive model.
Offered in both 4S and Turbo guise, the Panamera Executive has been stretched by almost six inches for the sole purpose of improving rear passenger space. Although it's hard to imagine anyone would willingly buy a Porsche and opt to sit in the back seat, I'd have to say that if I'm going to be chauffeured around in a car, why not make it a Porsche? For the most part, though, I'm guessing that many Panamera Executive sedans will be owned by people who want to one-up their buddy driving a stretched BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Drive like a prince: Join us for a walk through Monaco's car collection

Fri, Dec 29 2023

Small, crowded, and a royal pain in the trunk lid to drive into during rush hour, Monaco sounds like an improbable location for a huge car museum. And yet, this tiny city-state has been closely linked to car culture for over a century. It hosts two major racing events every year, many of its residents would qualify for a frequent shopper card if Rolls-Royce issued one, and Prince Rainier III began assembling a collection of cars in the late 1950s. He opened his collection to the public in 1993 and the museum quickly turned into a popular tourist attraction. The collection continued to grow after his death in April 2005; it moved to a new facility located right on Hercules Port in July 2022. Monaco being Monaco, you'd expect to walk into a room full of the latest, shiniest, and most powerful supercars ever to shred a tire. That's not the case: while there is no shortage of high-horsepower machines, the first cars you see after paying ˆ10 (approximately $11) to get in are pre-war models. In that era, the template for the car as we know it in 2023 hadn't been created, so an eclectic assortment of expensive and dauntingly experimental machines roamed whatever roads were available to them. One is the Leyat Helica, which was built in France in 1921 with a 1.2-liter air-cooled flat-twin sourced from the world of aviation. Fittingly, the two-cylinder spun a massive, plane-like propeller. Government vehicles get a special spot in the museum. They range from a Cadillac Series 6700 with an amusing blend of period-correct French-market yellow headlights and massive fins to a 2011 Lexus LS 600h with a custom-made transparent roof panel that was built by Belgian coachbuilder Carat Duchatelet for Prince Albert II's wedding. Here's where it all gets a little weird: you've got a 1952 Austin FX3, a Ghia-bodied 1959 Fiat 500 Jolly, a 1960 BMW Isetta, and a 1971 Lotus Seven. That has to be someone's idea of a perfect four-car garage.  One of the most significant cars in the collection lurks in the far corner of the main hall, which is located a level below the entrance. At first glance, it's a kitted-out Renault 4CV with auxiliary lights, a racing number on the front end, and a period-correct registration number issued in the Bouches-du-Rhone department of France. It doesn't look all that different than the later, unmodified 4CV parked right next to it. Here's what's special about it: this is one of the small handful of Type 1063 models built by Renault for competition.
