 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!

The hottest modern sports cars rendered as rally racers

Thu, Jan 14 2016

The modern-day World Rally Championship a monumental amount of fun to watch – I should know, as I recently was lucky enough to head to the UK to watch WRC Wales Rally GB – but even the most monstrous of the current WRC cars are based on fairly pedestrian European hatchbacks. Back in the heyday of rally, the Group B era in the 1980s, much hotter cars were the basis of even more incredible competition machines, for the most part. Take the exotic Ford RS200, or the Lancia Delta S4 with its twin-charged engine. And the hatchback-based Group B cars were bonkers, too. So what would some of our favorite modern cars look like if Group B had never ended? A British site named CarWow hired an artist to reimagine everything from the Rolls-Royce Wraith to the Porsche 911 as a retro-inspired rally car, and they were kind enough to let us share the results in the gallery above. The gallery features an Alfa Romeo Giulia in Martini livery, an Audi TT in classic Ur-Quattro colors, a Fiat 500 Abarth sporting massive flares and a hood blister full of auxiliary lights, a new Ford Mustang in RS200 livery, a Lancia Delta in Alitalia colors, a Porsche 911 in Rothmans livery, a Renault-Alpine in classic blue, a Rolls-Royce Wraith tribute to the Jules cologne Corniche Coupe, and a relatively modern-looking VW Touran. So far, the favorite around the office is the incredible Mercedes-Benz S-Class that is an homage to the wonderful 300 SEL 6.8 AMG "Red Pig" that essentially put AMG on the map. Check out the gallery above and see which one you like the best. Related Video:

Porsche Australia price cuts in excess of $36,000 irks customers

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

Have you ever gone to the store, only to become irked after learning that the new [*insert widget here*] that you bought just last week has gone through a price drop? If you're particularly thrifty, even if it's only a couple of bucks, you probably brought in your receipt to see if the store would issue you a credit for the difference. Now, imagine that the widget in question isn't a minor purchase, it's a Porsche - and the price drop isn't just a few bucks - it's thousands.
That's the unhappy scenario that recently faced a number of Australian luxury car buyers and the uncomfortable conversation awaiting the German automaker. According to GoAuto, Porsche Australia recently whacked up to $36,000 off the price of its models in order to jumpstart sales Down Under - the Panamera range itself saw cuts between $5,500 and more than $36,000. The aggressive price cut was a strategy designed to drive sales of more than 3,000 cars locally, a yearly goal originally set for 2018, but now hoped for as early as 2016.
Australia is known for its comparatively high car prices, so the dramatic price cuts were undoubtedly welcome news to potential Porsche shoppers. However, around 50 existing customers were understandably agitated by the reductions because they purchased their cars just before the adjustments took effect. Not only did they stand to lose out on the deals, they also had good reason to fear that their new cars' residual values would take a beating.
