1966 Porsche 912. Immaculate condition. Only 61k miles. I am only the third owner. The original owner had it garaged for over 20 years. The second owner did most of the restoration and improvements, and I have owned it for the past 13 years. It has always been garaged and covered. The body is in perfect shape. Absolutely no rust, dents, or major dings. The paint is in beautiful condition (the 2nd owner had it repainted).

The interior is also in beautiful condition. The carpet, upholstery, and headliner, were all replaced and are in great condition. The seats are high backs from a 1970s 911, but were re-upholstered to match. I added a Sony 50w x 4 detachable face cd deck with 4 Infinity speakers. It sounds great. I also added a Clifford alarm. All gauges are in working order (although I think the speedometer is a little fast and not sure how totally accurate the odometer is/was). The weather-striping was replaced and is also in excellent condition. All windows, wind-wings, door handles, seat adjustments, lamps, lights, etc. are all in good working order.

The engine is solid and strong. The 2nd owner added the dual weber carbs and the MSD electronic ignition. It is an original 5 speed, and the clutch and transmission are in good order and have been recently maintained. The brakes, shocks, ball-joints, and suspension have also been recently maintained. I have also added a trickle charger for the battery, because unfortunately, i haven't been driving it enough (hence the sale). All work during my past 13 years of ownership have been handled by Dieters in San Diego. They are the best in town (www.dieters.com). I have a lot of the documentation and records even dating back to the original owner in the 1960's, including the original Owner's Manual.

It 's not perfect, but all-in-all, it's in amazing shape for a 48 year-old car. Literally, every time I drive it, I get compliments, thumbs-ups, smiles, and people coming over to look and ask questions. It's really a great car.

I am very sorry to see it go, but a change in family life dynamics means that it has to go. Please e-mail me directly at 1966porsche912@gmail.com to see more pictures and videos, or come by in person to visit.

Please see attached terms and conditions. Thanks.

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

Porsche Cayman GT4 looks sexy, rapid in the nude

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Porsche doesn't officially have a name for its more hardcore version of the Cayman, yet. The speculation is that the coupe is called the GT4 as a little brother to the 911 GT3. However, the German sports car maker apparently is not interested in keeping the model's looks much of a secret because these latest shots show it without a hint of camouflage to speak of. The GT4 reportedly takes the GT3's ethos of more power, less weight and stickier-than-glue handling and brings it all to the Cayman. As these photos show, there's a much lower air dam up front with a cooling vent at the tip of the hood. Larger wheels are another obvious addition and are likely shod with some very sticky rubber. At the back, there's a double spoiler combining a wing and a ducktail. The power and gearbox for the GT4 remains a mystery, though. The rumor is that it uses a tuned version of the 3.4-liter flat-six in the Cayman S and GTS to make between 370 and 400 horsepower. A similar overhaul of the Boxster might be on the way, as well. A version of the convertible wearing some of the Cayman GT4's goodies was recently spotted testing. That one even had a manual transmission to make the prospects behind the wheel even more exciting.

Top Gear drag races VW Golf R against McLaren 675LT and Porsche 911

Thu, Apr 7 2016

Top Gear's latest quarter-mile drag race in the collects three very different performance vehicles: the 296-horsepower Volkswagen Golf R, 424-hp Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, and 666-hp McLaren 675LT. While each of these cars sit near the top of their segment, they each come from totally different rungs of the sports car price ladder. Spoiler alert, the Golf R doesn't win. But the final results illustrate the diminishing returns of price and performance. For example, the McLaren is only about a second quicker than the Porsche to 60 miles per hour, but the 675LT costs over 2.5 times more that the GTS. Related Video:
