HISTORY
ONE OF THE LAST PORSCHE 912'S BUILT, PURCHASED ON JULY 17, 1969 AT CARRIAGE MOTORS, COLUMBUS, OHIO.
The car had three owners, the last owner bought the car in 1982 with appoximately 56,000 miles. I purchased the car from the last owner in 2012. He was a friend of mine and was getting up in years to drive a manual. I have a clear Ohio title from when he bought the car in 1982. We have the maintanence booklets and the owners manual documenting the car.
CONDITION
Great car, no rust in any of the pans, headlight buckets, floor boards, or trunk area. The car has the desirable Slate Gray color with about 30% still original paint. The door jams, trunk, and hood area still shows original paint. Good patina, interior is all original with the seats looking very nice with no rips. The dash has a recovered dash and still looks very good, but not original. The radio has been replaced with a CD player, and the speakers are on the rear deck, but no holes have ever been cut into the panel or the side pockets.
The car now has brand new weber carbs, and the original solex carbs and air cleaners come with the car. The car has new tires and Fuchs wheels (6 X15) and a steel spare. I have ordered the COA from Porsche and it will confirm the options and matching numbers of the car. The car has a after market exhaust, I would install the factory exhaust to the car to make it original. The body panels are very nice, good caps, the passenger door seems to have been hit years ago, and could have been repaired. My friend never did any of these changes to the car since he owned it or never been hit. The lenses on the car are from a 1973 Porsche and this car should have the clear edge design, very minor change.
CAR IS SOLD AS IS WHERE IS AND THE BUYER HAS TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS FOR SHIPMENT. NO WARRANTY WITH THE CAR AND ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
Please make arrangements to see the car before the auction ends. All sales are final and I expect serious bidders. The car is very rare being one of the las 912's plus its condition as being very original. Thanks for looking.
A NONREFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $1,000 USD TO PAYPAL WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUSTION END, BALANCE BANK TRANSFERE WITHIN 4 DAYS.

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.
Mark Webber hospitalized as Porsche takes first WEC victory, Toyota wins championship [UPDATE]
Mon, Dec 1 2014It was a mixed bag for the Porsche team at the 6 Hours of Sao Paulo this weekend – the last race of its first season in the FIA World Endurance Championship. On the one hand, the German team took its first win since launching its LMP1 effort at the start of this season. On the other, its star driver suffered a massive crash that left him in the hospital. The crash occurred with less than half an hour to go when Mark Webber, who was running sixth in the #20 Porsche 919 Hybrid, lost control at Turn 14 at the Interlagos circuit – the same spot where he crashed his Jaguar F1 car during the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix – and crashed tail-first into the barrier. Both Webber and Matteo Cressoni (driver of the #90 Ferrari 458 Italia with which Webber collided) were evacuated to the trackside medical center and were then taken to the nearby Hospital Bandeirantes. Both were reportedly conscious throughout but are undergoing further testing, described as being in "satisfactory" condition by the FIA medical official on the scene. The occurrence of the crash so close to the end of the race, and the time it took to clear the wreckage, meant there was not enough time for a restart, so the race was completed under the safety car. But when the field did cross the finish line, it was the #14 Porsche 919 Hybrid driven by Romain Dumas, Neel Jani and Mark Lieb that took the checkered flag – marking the first time that Porsche has won an endurance prototype race since 1989. Of course, that solitary victory was not enough for Porsche to take the title, which went to the Toyota TS 040 driven by former F1 drivers Sebastien Buemi and Anthony Davidson, who finished the race in second place ahead of the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro driven by the retiring Tom Kristensen and his co-pilots Lucas di Grassi and Loic Duval. Top honors for the season in LMP2 went to Sergey Zlobin for SMP Racing in the Oreca-Nissan, while Ferrari took the GT title. UPDATE: Mark Webber released the following statement on his condition: "I'm quite sore this morning, am pretty bruised and have got a stinking headache. I've got no recollection of the accident or how it happened. The team is looking into the details to find out more.
Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.
