Any wonder why nice restored examples are fetching upwards of $35K here on Ebay; because this is the perfect sports car. Grace, handling, economy and plenty of power. This particular example is CLEAN and partially restored. Originally an Arizona car that was brought to CA about 3 years ago. During that time much work has been done, with recent receipts totaling $11,500. I have not owned this car for long, having traded the previous owner for an Alfa in my collection. I have too many projects on my hands and hope this example goes to someone who can finish the restoration while it continues to noticeably appreciate. According to my mechanic, the muffler will need to be replaced and the carbs adjusted afterwards to get her running properly. Right now the carbs tend to chirp a little bit at idle and while accelerating. The engine was gone through by Gary Betz in Saticoy and has less than 1000 miles since the rebuild. I have all the receipts for his warrantied work which includes rebuilding and the new 44 EMPI "Weber" carbs that are now installed. The valves were adjusted two weeks ago. She has plenty of power and doesn't smoke. The 4-speed transmission shifts into all gears without a problem. New parts include: BRAKES AND BRAKE LINES, SUSPENSION, BILSTEIN SHOCKS, BATTERY, 4 FALKEN ZE-502 205/50/15 TIRES, PORSCHE CORBEAU SPORT SEATS AND BRACKETS, FULL CARPET SET AND SOUND INSULATION, COCOA MATS, DOOR SEALS, WINDOW FELT, QUARTER WINDOW SEALS, REAR WINDOW SEAL. All of which have been installed at great expense. Car is straight and I have not detected any accidents or filler. PAN, ROCKERS AND WHEEL WELLS ARE CLEAN as seen in the photos. Paint is in nice shape with only a few minor touch-ups. The dash has 3 cracks and is covered by a dash mat. All instruments function except the clock. Headliner and door cards are original. Glass is all nice. All electrical systems function. Some of the body rubber is brittle and needs replacement as shown i.e. bumpers, hood, wind wings, rocker trim, windshield. There are also a few minor dings to the front and rear bumpers as shown. Car comes with original tool kit, jack, owner's manual and original spare 15" steel wheel. I have a clear CA title and can ship to any foreign port. I have described this vehicle to the best of my abilities. It is up to the potential buyer to ask all questions and request additional pictures if necessary. I want to make certain you receive the car you were expecting. I can show the vehicle during the course of the auction. I am an hour's drive North of Los Angeles. Inspections must be done prior to auction's end and not afterwards. No joy rides. I reserve the right to end this auction early because the car is advertised locally. THIS IS AN AS-IS SALE. I require a non-refundable deposit of $500. to Paypal within 24 hours of auction's end. Balance due within 7 days in CASH, CASHIER'S CHECK (MUST CLEAR MY BANK BEFORE RELEASING CAR AND TITLE) OR BANK WIRE. Car must be claimed by buyer or agent within 2 weeks of auction's close or a $5/day storage fee applies. NO EXCEPTIONS. I will gladly work with your transporter.

Singer Porsche, Koenigsegg, NSX: Leno's life doesn't suck
Tue, Oct 6 2015Jay Leno had quite a productive trip this year during Monterey Car Week. Not only did he get to pal around with Ian Callum and check out the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but the denim-clad comedian also headed to The Quail to talk to some prominent figures in the modern sports car scene. Capping off the fun, he got to take a drive in a Mercedes-AMG GT S, too Perhaps the highlight of this show is a nearly 10-minute interview with Christian von Koenigsegg. The founder of the Swedish hypercar company digs deep into the Agera One:1's engineering details, relating interesting facts about the aerodynamics and transmission. In addition, Leno chats with Rob Dickenson of Singer about its newly reimagined Porsche 911 Targa, and he gets the latest scoop on the Acura NSX's progress from newly promoted Acura Vice President and General Manager Jon Ikeda. If you like hearing about the nuts and bolts of sports car development, then this video can't be missed. Of course, we were there at Monterey, too, and we pointed our own cameras at some of the amazing machinery, both vintage and modern, at all the various car-focused events of the week. Take a look back at some of our own cool footage in the videos below. Related Video:

Porsche to develop new line of engines for next Panamera
Sat, 22 Mar 2014When the second generation of the four-door Porsche Panamera launches, it will likely be riding a new platform, complete with an all-new family of V6 and V8 engines, according to a report coming out of the UK.
Autocar reports that the so-called MSB platform will likely underpin the Panamera, and it could be shared with Bentley, provided the Volkswagen-owned, British-built brand commits to the architecture. As for the engines, it's reported that they'll have a sportier character than the V6s and V8s being built for Volkswagen and Audi's vehicles.
"Porsche will have its own new V8 that will be common to the new MSB platform," Porsche's chief engineer, Wolfgang Hatz, said. "It's a family for the next 10 years of cars." Whether the V8 and V6 will be used outside of the Panamera line, though, remains unclear. There's also no mention of what place turbocharging would have with the new engines.
