This rare 1974 Porsche
roadster (California car) comes with the desirable 2.0 liter engine. The engine was recently rebuilt, and has approximately 500 miles.The 2.0 liter is considered by many to be the most powerful engine in these cars, especially in the 73' and 74' Porsche 914 (4 cylinder). The earlier 914-6 cylinder is the only engine that came with more power! This great car comes with dual 40mm double barrel
carburetors, and it runs good. It gets all the attention wherever it goes!!! There are
no dents nor major scratches on the exterior. The paint is okay, but there are
a few imperfections, especially on the front hood. There is no visible rust!!! The tires are good, with about 70% of tread left. The brakes work fine, and I
have extra brakes/calipers and many other spare parts for this vehicle. Car
also comes with the original owner's manual and with about 15 repair books
covering the entire vehicle (motor, transmission, electrical, body, suspension,
fuel system, etc). The lights (electrical) on this car work fine.
Registration/tags are good through August of 2014 and car is insured. I have
the title/ pink slip registered to me.
The seats are Recaro/ Porsche seats from a 2000 Porsche Boxter or Carrera; they have seat
covers and are a lot more comfortable than the stock seats! The carpet, door
panels, the back pad, the dash and everything in the interior looks good. Doors
open and close fine and all door handles and window cranks work fine. The front
glass and windows are good without cracks. The rubber seals are there, and they
keep the interior dry. The dash is the original one, and was refurbished (cracks were filled and sanded, & dash was dyed black). Car has
a nice Alpine CD stereo, and it also has several speakers. Car also comes with
a center console with 3 gauges (clock, voltage and temp). There is a newer
spare tire in the front compartment and a jack in the rear.
There are some
minor things that might need attention, like the AC, heater and the
speedometer. They are either not functional or they are simply not connected
(could be a fuse, relay or a line not connected). Fuel and temp gauges work
fine. Also, I recently noticed that the car has a really minor oil leak. I always
drove this vehicle on the weekends, with the top off (I never needed any AC or
heater). Since my baby was born about 7 months ago, I haven't been driving it much, and now It is time to pass it on. I regularly had a technician adjust
the valves, carburetors and the timing. The car is 40 years old and it is in
really good condition, overall! It is a survivor!! Potential buyers are
welcome to come see the car. I am also including a anti-theft device and a water proof car cover with the purchase. Thanks for your interest. |

Leno steals Porsche 918 from The Quail for latest Garage episode
Sat, 31 Aug 2013Just because he's a famous celebrity doesn't mean Jay Leno got to take it easy at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance earlier this month. Having already spent some time with the gorgeous Cadillac Elmiraj Concept and Ed Welburn for a recent episode of Jay Leno's Garage, the late night talk show host also got to put a few miles on a prototype version of the Porsche 918 Spyder.
Like a usual episode of JLG, Leno first goes over the details of the car with Frank Walliser, head of the 918 Spyder's development, before taking it out for spin. Check out the full episode, which is posted below, to hear what Walliser has to say about the car. More importantly, though, crank up your computer's volume and let the car's high-revving engine and amazing exhaust note do plenty of talking for itself.
Here are all the EVs with 800V charging available in 2024
Fri, May 31 2024As technology advances, electric cars are improving their fast-charging times. That means less time spent waiting at a DC public charger when you’re out on the road. While Level 3 chargers used to provide a maximum of 150 kilowatts of power, 350-kW chargers are become more common, making for super-fast charging Â… if your car is capable of taking advantage of it. So how do automakers improve the charging speed of their EV batteries? Some are turning to higher voltage, specifically 800V charging. What's the difference between 800-volt charging and 400-volt charging? So how does 800V charging improve upon the more common 400V EVs? Put simply, the higher the voltage, the less amperage (current) it requires to charge. In other words, with more voltage, you get more wattage (power, aka charge rate) from the same amperage (current). 800V architecture is also more efficient, with less electrical resistance, so it can use thinner cables and smaller, lighter components while needing less cooling. The tradeoff is that it is more costly, and guess who that cost gets passed on to. While automakers don't break down their pricing to show how much more you're paying for that 800V system, you'll just have to evaluate any potential purchases as a whole, and make your decision based on overall pricing of the vehicle. Thankfully, the 800V EVs on sale now are generally ones we like. Now, 800V charging capability doesn't necessarily mean an EV has 800V vehicle architecture. For instance, the GMC Hummer EV and Chevy Silverado EV operate at 400V, but with their dual battery packs, can switch to 800V when charging by temporarily connecting those packs in series. Currently, there are only a handful of EVs available with 800V charging. But if you are going to find yourself taking longer trips in your EV and using DC fast chargers more often, you might want to consider choosing one with this faster charging capability. With that in mind, these are the EVs available with 800V charging, either on sale now or coming in 2024. 800-volt EVs available in 2024 Audi E-Tron GT Chevrolet Silverado EV Genesis GV60 Genesis Electrified G80 Genesis Electrified GV70 GMC Hummer EV Pickup GMC Hummer EV SUV GMC Sierra EV* Hyundai Ioniq 5 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Kia EV6 Kia EV9 Lotus Eletre* Lotus Emeya* Lucid Air Lucid Gravity* Porsche Macan Electric* Porsche Taycan Ram 1500 REV* Tesla Cybertruck *Coming later in 2024 Green Audi Chevrolet Genesis GMC Hyundai Kia Lotus Porsche Tesla Electric Lucid EV charging
Evo rediscovers true love in the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Wed, Jun 3 2015Evo is on record as loving the Porsche 911 GT3. In fact the only time the GT3 hasn't won its Car of the Year award was when there wasn't a new one to contend for top honors, and in 2009 (when the 997.2 GT3 lost out to the Lotus Evora). By all accounts, then, Evo ought to love the new GT3 RS. Fortunately that's just what the British enthusiast's publication has gotten its hands on for this latest video. After Porsche went a bit softer with the current 911 GT3, the RS has been toughened up to greet the most hardcore of Zuffenhausen's faithful. It was revealed just a few months ago at the Geneva Motor Show, with a 4.0-liter atmospheric boxer-six driving 500 horsepower and 338 pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels – exclusively through a dual-clutch transmission. That last bit might be enough to make the snobbiest of purists scoff, but it wasn't enough to keep Chris Harris from loving it. Find out what his former compatriots at Evo have to say from this first drive.
