1996 Porsche 912 great shape good runner 912 could be converted to 911 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3hCoHfv0ZM for a video. http://s1229.photobucket.com/user/saltzchuck/library/1966%20Porsche%20912 for many more photos (might need to enter “saltzchuck” to view album). History
I know of is the car came to Oregon from California 15 to 20 years ago.
Was pulled behind an RV for a few years so it has wiring to plug into a trailer
socket on the back of the towing vehicle. Body work and paint had been done prior to coming to Oregon, this included replacing the right rear quarter panel where you can see from the photos the red is ever so slightly more pale. A couple small body patches were done more recently. Engine
is a later model Volkswagon 1600 cc engine based per engine number AE219021. Car VIN is 454414.
Drives good, smokes a little when first started after sitting then cleans up. I had the car inspected when buying it and they found that the engine compression was tested when I got it. Cylinders 1, 2, 3,
4 were 105, 110, 70, 70 cold respectively; and 140, 140, 110, 110 hot. The shop diagnosis was
cylinders may have been shimmed incorrectly. They also found that under the front where the steering mechanism connects they said that the rust should be addressed before driving the car hard, so I've driving it around but not hard cornering. I took photos from the front, under the front, to show this rust. Good things: Floor panels are solid. Fun to drive. Shifts well. 4 wheel disc brakes work well, 50% pads all around, based on shop inspection report. Spare tire is chrome plated steel. Lifting jack. Turn signals, head lights (one high beam out) work. Glass is in great shape (SEKURIT-F windows in all except driver’s window which is a SEKIRIT-1 with a heart shaped symbol. Windshield has no letters or symbols. Wind shield has a very small chip in it, not very noticeable). Tires matching and in good shape with at least 50% tread inches of tread. Original owners manual that is pretty wasted. Original set of keys. Door locks work with key. Heater works. Carpets are in good shape. Emergency brake works. Release mechanisms for the front boot, engine compartment and fuel filler lids all work well. Doors open and close properly. Door windows roll up and down properly. Rear windows swing out and in, and latch properly. Most window rubber is in good condition, some cracking. Blaupunkt radio with 2 AM, 1 SW, and 2 FM buttons. Glove box is excellent. Seatbelts. Clear Oregon title in my name. Not so good things: Engine smokes a little when first started and then cleans up. Rust can be seen in the photos at corner of windows and in bumpers, some of the paint has small bubbles.Front boot hood does not stay up when opened, needs at least one piston replaced. Right rear quarter panel was replaced some years ago and paint is slightly oxidized. Engine compartment is missing some of the fire wall insulation due to the replacement of the right rear quarter. Hood emblem was removed and is in a box, see photos. Wheels are pitted aluminum but cool looking. Dash padding over speaker has been damaged possibly by mice, see photos. Locking portion of the ignition switch is missing, I start it with a screw driver, see the little stubby screwdriver laying on the open ashtray in one photo. Driver’s seat has torn threads, other seats pretty nice.Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up. $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of close of auction via PayPal or cash.

Daughter has great taste, gives stepdad Porsche 914 of his youth
Mon, 14 Jul 2014Children require a ton of sacrifices; even people without kids know that. Whether it's the time to watch a baseball game or the money just to get there, parents have to give up something for the betterment of their offspring. Of course, once a child grows up, it's finally possible to repay mom and dad for all of their hard work. In the case of Kristin Russell and her stepdad, Dave, that involves a surprise 1973 Porsche 914.
Before he got married, Dave had a sweet, white 914. He even had the money saved up to restore it, but spent the cash on the wedding instead. The Porsche languished in the garage until Dave eventually parted it out and sold it off. Years later, Russell wanted to do something to thank her stepdad for all of the things he had done for her and her mom. The only fitting thank you was an identical 914 to the one that he gave up. Scroll down to watch Dave's reaction of getting his dream car as a surprise Father's Day gift.
Porsche Exclusive showcases custom-order 911 Turbo Cabrio
Sun, 06 Apr 2014Porsche is one of the most profitable automakers in the business. In fact, it's said to make about $23,000 on each car it sells, thanks in no small part to an options list that can send the sticker price accelerating quicker than one of its own sports cars. But there are always those for whom even the extensive option list won't be enough, and for just such customers, there is Porsche Exclusive.
The division in Zuffenhausen is tasked with creating even more individualized examples of Porsche vehicles, and it recently did up this 911 Turbo Cabriolet - which, at $160,700, is already one of the most expensive Porsches you can order this side of a 918 Spyder: more than any Boxster, Cayman, Macan or Cayenne, any Panamera other than a Turbo S or Executive - not to mention any other 911 short of a Turbo S.
This particular demo vehicle features a Slate Grey paint job and red interior decked out in more leather than an S&M dungeon - which, come to think of it, would probably be less financially painful than ordering up this car from Porsche Exclusive.
Leno steals Porsche 918 from The Quail for latest Garage episode
Sat, 31 Aug 2013Just because he's a famous celebrity doesn't mean Jay Leno got to take it easy at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance earlier this month. Having already spent some time with the gorgeous Cadillac Elmiraj Concept and Ed Welburn for a recent episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the late night talk show host also got to put a few miles on a prototype version of the Porsche 918 Spyder.
Like a usual episode of JLG, Leno first goes over the details of the car with Frank Walliser, head of the 918 Spyder's development, before taking it out for spin. Check out the full episode, which is posted below, to hear what Walliser has to say about the car. More importantly, though, crank up your computer's volume and let the car's high-revving engine and amazing exhaust note do plenty of talking for itself.
