1968 Porsche 912 Coupe Background: The Porsche 912 was a sports car that was manufactured by a company by the name of Porsche between the years of 1965 and 1969. It was built as an entry level vehicle for those who craved a 911, but could not afford the cost. The 912 is a very well balanced vehicle, and would be considered a nimble-handling compact performance four-seat vehicle. The 912's flat four cylinder engine made 90 horsepower at 5800 rpm, and was capable of delivering 30 miles per gallon. This was due to the low weight, and low drag of the vehicle. Making the 912 the best of both worlds in terms of sports cars, the stylish look of a 911 and the gas mileage of modern day Prius. At one time the 912 grew so popular that it was able to out sell its counterpart, the 911!
The 912 is a great weekend cruising vehicle, it may not have a lot of power but it sure will capture the envy of all your neighbors! This 912 spent almost its entirelife in the southweastern part of the United States, and has been residing in Arizona since 1991 when the last owner purchased the car. It is a very, very solid car with all original sheet metal floor pans. The car was originally order in Tangerine (6809) with Black Leatherette interior. However, it was repainted in the 90's to the black that you see before you. This is a matching numbers car, and the mileage is actual at 62K. This 912 also features very rare option of air conditioning. Other options that were ordered at the time of purchase would be: Tinted Glass All Around, Bumper Horns-F/R, Antenna, 'Koni' Shock Absorbers, Ventilated Chrome Wheels, and Semperit Tires (165/15). However, the Chrome Wheels were switched to a factory set of Fuch wheels some time in the past. Recent work to the vehicle includes an engine rebuild, and a complete carb rebuild.

Porsche planning customer driving center at Le Mans
Fri, 29 Nov 2013Porsche seems to be on a campaign to build driving centers for its customers to allow them to experience the capabilities of their cars on track. It has one under way in Los Angeles, another in development at its North American headquarters in Atlanta, and a British center set up at the Silverstone circuit. Now the latest reports indicate that Porsche is planning yet another driving center at Le Mans.
The new facility is earmarked to be built at the Circuit de la Sarthe right by the start/finish line, incorporating the Porsche Curves that bridge the Arnage corner and the Ford Chicanes on the West side of the famous track.
Porsche is reportedly still seeking approval from the Automobile Club de l'Ouest that manages the circuit, and once given the green light, would still take some time to complete. But the idea of driving a 911 flat out on the legendary track is likely to make more than a few mouths water, particularly as the German automaker prepares its full-on assault of the famous endurance race next year.

Porsche responds to PETA after tiger cub displays at Macan dealership events
Tue, 13 May 2014Porsche has found itself in the good graces of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which is pretty odd considering it's the only brand we know of that offers leather-lined vents. The activist group is praising the sports car manufacturer's handling of reports that some of its dealerships were set to feature tigers or tiger cubs at the local launch events for the Macan. Apparently, "macan" is the Malay word for tiger, which explains the connection between a highly touted crossover and a jungle cat.
A Tampa, FL dealership already displayed some three-week-old cubs, with PETA saying tigers for display should be at least eight to 12 weeks old. Even then, the group argues that the animals can suffer due to stress, malnourishment, neglect and a lack of veterinary care. The group brings up legal concerns, as well, arguing that if one of the cubs bit a customer, the dealership could be held liable (we're no big cat experts, but it seems unlikely a three-week-old cub could do that much damage).
Porsche's PR department quickly reacted to PETA's claims, with Vice President of Marketing Andre Oosthuizen, telling the group that Porsche is concerned about the "welfare of any animal, large or small, wild or domesticated." Oosthuizen's statements were reported in an official PETA blog.
