1976 Porsche 912e Excellent, Driver Level Survivor Car (911 Chassis 914 Engine) on 2040-cars
Daytona Beach, Florida, United States
1976 Porsche 912E Please Review all 59 Pics in the Picassa Album and the YouTube Video, below. The Pics and Video tell the story of this excellent Survivor Class 912E that is turn key and ready to be enjoyed from your first day of ownership! Seriously, even the Clock and Fuel Gauge Work! Striking Color Combination of Silver over Black The paint shines up nicely and looks great! You can enter this 912E into a local show without hesitation. I estimate this to be the 1st repaint in correct, factory silver and likely some 10-15 years old. Of course, there is the occasional imperfection in the paint but nothing of concern for a driver level car. Engine Starts right up and Accelerates without any Hesitations, Transmission Shifts Properly, Steering is Tight and the 912 Drives and Brakes Properly and Straight Recently serviced by Kennedy Porsche in Daytona Beach. The previous owner drove this 912 from Daytona to Amelia Island for the Concours (1.5 hr drive each way). This 912E was part of the "Cars and Coffee" event Saturday before the Amelia Island Concours, see windshield event sticker. Desirable 5 Speed with Factory A/C (the a/c system appears complete but does not blow cold) and Sunroof! The undercarriage is very solid! See detailed pics in the Picassa Album, below. Nice Clean Trunk Compartment with Jack, Tow Pin, Lug Wrench and Spare Tire (I believe the Spare to be Original). Original Warranty Book and Owner's Manual with Protective Case is Present! The Interior is in great condition! I believe the Seats and Carpet to be Original. The Sport Bucket Seats are a highly desirable option and are incredibly comfortable! The CoCo Mats are an Excellent Upgrade! Glass is all in great condition and the chrome and stainless trim present well! I have driven this 912E for over 100 miles around town without issue. Candidly, I have not even detailed this 912E. It really presents well and, after a professional detail, should look stunning! WE HAVE OTHER CLASSIC MERCEDES AND PORSCHE AVAILABLE! I can assist with shipping worldwide (major European Ports $1,250-$1,500) . I will deliver to Jacksonville, FL Port for $175 or Miami Port for $375. Call Mike with any questions 386.334.0709.

Jack Olsen built one Porsche to do it all
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Jack Olsen has built himself a lair called the 12-Gauge Garage, and inside that garage he built a lairy Porsche 911 nicknamed Black Beauty II. Although it looks like one of Stuttgart's models from the sixties or seventies, it is actually four decades of 911 gubbins from 1965 to 2000 thrown under one shell: the lightweight body is from 1972, the transaxle from 1977, the brakes from a 1986 Turbo, the engine from 1995, for example. It weighs 2,400 pounds and it's got 272 horsepower to get it going, but it's still a pure Porsche, Olsen saying, "If you stop thinking about what you're doing, it will remind you in very abrupt ways."
Olsen said the real point has been to have one car that does it all, so he does everything in his 911 from neighborhood runs to 7-11 to track racing - he loads the aero bits in the car and bolts them on trackside. And he says he'll never stop tweaking the suspension.
You can watch and hear the rest in Olsen's words in the video below.
The 10 car brands most expensive to maintain over 10 years
Mon, Apr 22 2024Car maintenance has got to be one of the least fun things you can do with your free time, right behind going to the dentist and filing your taxes. However, depending on the brand you buy, your time spent at the shop could be much more than you bargained for. Consumer Reports’ new study on the most- and least-expensive-to-maintain car brands found that European car companies are most likely to break your wallet with costs nearly five times that of the automakers at the other end of the spectrum. Land Rover had the highest ten-year maintenance costs, at an average of $19,250. Porsche was second worst with $14,090 in costs. 10 car brands most expensive to maintain over 10 years: Land Rover: $19,250 Porsche: $14,090 Mercedes-Benz: $10,525 Audi: $9,890 BMW: $9,500 Volvo: $9,285 Infiniti: $8,500 Acura: $7,800 Mini: $7,625 Subaru: $7,200 The Euro brands at the “top” of this list arenÂ’t all that surprising. Land Rover has consistently landed as one of the most expensive vehicle brands to maintain for years now, though Porsche is generally viewed as being one of the more solid performance brands. That could suggest that some models donÂ’t always require more repairs, but the fixes they do need are significantly more expensive. Tesla, Buick, and Toyota were the three cheapest to maintain car brands, with 10-year maintenance costs of $4,035, $4,900, and $4,900, respectively. Consumer Reports noted that these numbers could be slightly skewed due to the fact that some automakers offer free maintenance for the first few years of ownership, and all companies cover their new vehicles for at least a few years after the purchase. Routine maintenance is a great way to avoid costly repairs over time, as itÂ’s much cheaper to catch a problem before it starts causing other issues. Check your oil, rotate your tires, and avoid driving like a wild person, and youÂ’ll likely fare much better than others, even if you own one of the scarier-to-maintain brands.
Porsche 919 Hybrid sets new qualifying record at Le Mans [w/video]
Thu, Jun 11 2015Porsche is getting off to a great start at Le Mans this year, setting a new qualifying lap record. Both Neel Jani and Timo Bernhardt clocked qualifying times in the latest Porsche 919 Hybrid that eclipse the previous record. At 3:16.887 and 3:17.767, both Porsche factory works drivers beat the record 3:18.51 qualifying time achieved by Stephane Sarrazin in the Peugeot 908 back in 2008. We should note, however, that these times are for the current track configuration. The outright qualifying record for any configuration still belongs to – you guessed it, also Porsche. Pedro Rodriguez pole position in 1971 in the Porsche 917 at 3:13.90. His teammate Jackie Oliver lapped even faster during the practice session at 3:13.6, and went on to set the fastest race lap that same year, which still stands at 3:18.4. The long and short of it, though, is that Porsche has been and remains the force to be reckoned with when it comes to outright pace around the French circuit. All that remains to be seen is whether the team can translate that pace into victory over the defending Le Mans winners at Audi and the reigning World Endurance Champions at Toyota.

As expected, this first day will be have been marked by the domination of the Porsche 919 Hybrid cars during the first qualifying practice and who totally smashed the record of the track. But let's be careful, Audi isn't far behind. In LM P2, an Oreca 05 from Team KCMG finished in front whereas the Aston Martins excelled in LM GTE Pro and LM GTE Am. During the free practice sessions that took place between 4 and 8pm, the competitors began carefully on a drying track after the afternoon rain. The red flag was presented only 5 minutes after the opening of the track because of an immobilized driver who had made a mistake (without any other consequence other than this neutralization) at braking point in the chicane ForzaMotorsport (first of the two chicanes on the Hunaudieres). The British driver Richard Bradley was the cause of this behind the steering wheel of the Oreca 05 n°47 of the Hong Kong team KCMG. The prototype LM P2 was brought back to the pits on the breakdown truck. A little later, the same Richard Bradley did the best time of the free session on this Oreca 05 n°47.
