San Francisco, California, United States
|
You are looking at a true survivor 1971 Porsche 914 finished
in Lemon Yellow (L11E). This car is a two-owner California car that was sold
new at WESTER Porsche in Monterey California on Feb. 25th 1971. It spent
its entire life in Monterey California. The car was regularly serviced and is
in exceptional condition. It is clear that the car was carefully driven and stored,
and its cosmetic condition is consistent with a car that has covered 70000
miles. Dansk exhaust, AE wheels, new tires, new brakes, suspensions… The body is in perfect condition. There is absolutely no
rust anywhere on the car and it’s never been in any accident even minor. It had one high quality repaint in the exact
same factory color. All gaps are perfect. The interior is very impressive. Everything is 100% original and in perfect condition. (dashboard, carpeting,
seats, sun visors, steering wheel, door panels...) Original footstool still in place. Two sets of keys… Everything works as it
should. The engine compartment is equally impressive. It is all original and even retains the
original battery cover. The car was driven occasionally and received a regular
maintenance. The maintenance record book shows that all periodical and major services
have been performed on time. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a true
survivor Porsche 914 with complete provenance. All manuals, maintenance and
repair records back to the original bill of sale from WESTER Porsche in
Monterey California. |

Paul Walker's accident due to 'speed, and speed alone'
Thu, 19 Dec 2013Following an investigation into the crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and driver Roger Rodas, an unnamed law enforcement source told the Associated Press that there were no signs of mechanical failure on the Porsche Carrera GT that was destroyed in the accident.
The report from The Huffington Post claims the officer in question blamed "speed, and speed alone" in the fatal accident. The same report ruled out the presence of debris in the road, which may have caused Rodas to lose control of the V10-powered super car.
Engineers from Porsche are traveling to California to investigate the accident with the help of the Carrera GT's on-board data recorder. Until then, investigators won't speculate on the car's speed at the time of the wreck.
Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company
Tue, 18 Jun 2013In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.
Porsche undecided on new 911 GT2 [w/poll]
Thu, 23 Jan 2014Fans of hardcore 911s had it pretty good with the last 997 generation. There was the GT3, GT3 RS, GT3 RS 4.0, GT2 and GT2 RS (pictured above). Each one was faster, more powerful and more expensive than the one below it, but what they all shared was what Porsche purists love most: rear engine, rear drive, a manual transmission and little else.
So far with the new 991, Porsche has only released a GT3 version. Sure, there have been other models, but they're all decidedly more luxurious and less performance-focused. And as impressive a machine as the new GT3 is, it has run the risk of alienating some of its most ardent fanatics with technological interference in the form of a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and four-wheel steering. So what those purists have really been looking forward to is a more hardcore GT3 RS or new GT2. But those may not be coming so quickly.
Speaking with 911 project chief August Achleitner, Car and Driver reports that a new GT2 is anything but a foregone conclusion. The reasons may be partially political, but could be technical in nature as well: with 560 horsepower driving all four wheels, the new 911 Turbo S runs the 0-60 in less than three seconds. Give it more power but less traction, as Porsche has done with past GT2s, and you may not end up seeing an actual improvement in performance. A GT2 that's slower than the Turbo S would be difficult to explain.
