 I am selling what was my father in laws 1973 Porsche 914 2.0.  It is a strong running 2.0 and runs well, starts right up and shifts nicely as well.  The odometer reads 104k miles and it holds oil very well. The engine has some oil dampness on the bottum, but I see only one drop every 6 months to a year.  The heat is hooked up and puts out a lot of heat.   It was originally black and was repainted at one point to red.  The current paint is about 15 year old enemal and I would call the paint job a 7 our of 10.   The aluminum trim is in nice condition and the chrome bumpers are some of the nicest I have seen in years.  A new battery tray was  just installed. Door gaps are good.  Overall, the floor pan in very solid.  There is some rust in the rear triangle area for the floors on each side.  Something must have happened in the front at some point.  The piece that the bumper bolts to had been replaced.  There is all 5 fuch rims including the spare which are nice, just could use some polishing.   The carpets are very nice.  There are a couple cracks in the dash, a couple small tears in the seats and back pad.  There is a center console with the three gauges.  The breaks work very well with a 19mm 911 master cylinder, the front rotors, wheel bearings and pads are new and the front calipers were rebuilt a couple years ago.  If I were keeping the car I would put on new rear rotors and pads.  There is stainless steel heat exchangers and a hand sewn leather steering wheel.  I have driven the car about 100 miles this spring and it has been a fun driver and reliable.  The car is located about 15 miles south of Ohare airport just outside of Chicago. It could be driven home, or if you have a need for shipping, I have had very good luck with Fed EX auto transport(800-325-4267).  If you have any questions, please let me know.  Good luck bidding!

Porsche reveals first Macan driving and manufacturing footage

Fri, 13 Dec 2013

One of the more anticipated offerings of the upcoming year, Porsche's sporty baby Cayenne, the 2015 Macan, has already earned nods of approval from a number of Autoblog staffers. We named it one of the top five debuts at last month's LA Auto Show, citing its 400-horsepower turbocharged engine and other sporty bits as good reasons to get excited about Stuttgart's latest.
And while our first test may be many months away, we're keeping our ears to the ground for any information on Porsche's compact crossover. We're especially keen on stuff like this - our first look at the new model in motion and undergoing assembly at its Leipzig plant. Both are shorter videos, and while there's little of the glorious engine noise we've already been teased with, the videos do offer a great look at the handsome Macan on the road, as well as glimpse at Porsche's state-of-the-art manufacturing operations.
Scope out the videos below and let us know what you think.

Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing

Thu, 09 May 2013

In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.

Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
