This 912 Porsche was an early model with several distinguishing features found on the early cars. It has the early flat closure panel for the engine deck lid and a 5 speed transmission as standard equipment.  The four speed transmission was not yet available. It was ordered with 5 gauges and was completed September 6th,1965. Upon entering the United States, it was titled as a 1966 model year.

This is a Porsche/Reutter bodied car.  It likely remained in Europe initially as it retains the European heater system. The transmission is the original per the C.O.A. and the engine was replaced at some point by a rebuilt engine #740625.The Solex carbs were replaced with Webers.The original color was Sand Beige with a Beige interior. It is presently silver with a black interior.The car is in excellent mechanical condition and accelerates briskly and holds its own in city traffic and on the highway. The front shocks are new and the rears were replaced 3 or 4 years old and are in like new condition. I have owned the car for over 2 years and driven it regularly in good weather. The front pan was replaced some time in the past and there is a bubble in the paint at the rear of the right front fender. The floor pan is original and seems to be in good condition. I had planned to restore the car back to its original configuration but its becoming obvious that it is not going to happen. I have included a picture of the C.O.A. which shows the car was equipped with Chrome Wheels, Clock, Outside Temperature Gauge, Signal Key (no, I do not know what that is), Antenna and Wood Steering Wheel. When I purchased the car it did not have a wood wheel.It presently has a new Nardi Wood Steering Wheel. I have since purchased a correct Porsche Wood Steering Wheel which was restored by Bruce Crawford. I will make it available to the buyer for an additional cost if desired. This car can be used as a daily driver but it would also be a good car to restore. The buyer is responsible for shipping.

 Please contact me with any questions before bidding. The car is available for inspection by appointment. This car is advertised elsewhere. I reserve the right to close this auction if it is sold. The reserve price will not be divulged.

Motor Trend puts Chevy Camaro Z28 and Porsche 911 GT3 Head 2 Head

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.

Porsche's 959 is still poster-worthy after all these years

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Today, we have the Porsche 918 Spyder. Before that, there was the Carrera GT. While both of those cars are dramatic departures from the traditional, rear-engine Porsche formula, they owe their very existence to another wild child of the iconic German brand - the 959.
Like so many of the great performance cars of yesteryear, the 959 was a homologation special, built just so Porsche could go racing in the clinically insane Group B rally series. Fewer than 400 959s hit the streets, but those that did were some of the most advanced cars of the 1980s. A rear-mounted, twin-turbocharged flat-six sent its power through a still-rare all-wheel-drive system, creating a race-inspired rocket that was, for a short time, the fastest production car on the planet.
Xcar has the story of the 959, from its inception to its conquest of the Paris-Dakar rally, which is interspersed with a drive of the legendary coupe. Scroll down for the full video.
