 This car technically belongs to my mom, but I purchased it originally in July 2006.  I picked the car up in Fort Wayne, Indiana for $6,500 and drove it 13 hours straight to Richmond, Va.  Incredible experience!  We had a fantastic first year together, in which I had the pedal assembly rebuilt with a new master cylinder and updated brake cables etc.  Had zero issues.

In 2007, I decided to "reward" the faithful 912 with a motor rebuild.  I picked the wrong guys to do the engine work (took 3x as long as promised, $1,000+ additional, etc).  So I had a different mechanic install a rebuilt transmission.  All of this put us without the car for almost the entire year.  Horrible.  When I finally picked it up with the new motor and transmission, we made it only about 2 hours before the motor seized (no oil!).  I could never prove which mechanic was ultimately to blame.  Out of money and frustrated, we parked it.

For the next couple of years or so, we slowly replaced and/or repaired the damaged parts (with mechanics' consultation) and gathered what I believe to be all of the necessary pieces to rebuild the motor.  Simultaneously, we took the car to a guy in Martinsville, VA to repair rust etc and paint the 912. It has barely seen the light of day since the body work.  Until January, we kept it in a storage unit.  It has been in my parking lot under a car cover for the past few months.

The interior would be ok with a good cleaning, but there are a few scratches and such as I have only done "necessary" repairs.  We will include some updated seatbelts, still in the box.  Also cool, is that I had a cd player concealed in the glove box back in 2006 with some MB Quart speakers in the doors. 

Today, the 912 is physically in solid shape.  The motor is somewhat if not completely "all there", with ASSEMBLY REQUIRED.  The transmission has only a couple of hours on it.  Wipers, motor, transmission, exhaust, are out of the car, but will be included.  Heater boxes are rusted out, but I'll include them for whatever that is worth.  Actual mileage is unknown.

Selling this car breaks my heart after everything we've been through.  Not to mention that we will never recover the time and money invested.  But we are out of time and money (at least for now), and must sell.  I sincerely hope our 912 finds a good home.

Best,

-Curtis

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.

Touring Italy in a classic Porsche will have you feeling continental

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

It's hard to believe there was a time when a Porsche 911 didn't come to market with 400 horsepower. But as the latest video from Petrolicious reminds us, with this video of a 1968 911T, owned by Donato Maniscalco, that time wasn't so long ago.
You might think, being a distinguished man living in Italy, Maniscalco would be more enthused by a Ferrari, Maserati, or Lamborghini, but in reality, it was always Porsche that enamored the Italian as a boy. And it was that passion that led him to purchase the glorious 911T he's seen tossing about in this video.
Maniscalco goes into detail about what makes the old 911 such a legend, while also mentioning how he and the car participate in classic rallies and races. There's also some typically beautiful footage of the Italian countryside, as well. So take a look below for the latest video from Petrolicious.
