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. |

Porsche Museum highlights history of the 911 RSR
Sat, 12 Jan 2013Porsche has amassed quite an impressive trophy case in just about every racing series it has ever entered, and one of its most dominant machines has to be the 911 RSR from the 1970s. Taking part in various GT-class competitions, the 911 RSR managed to take home three international and seven German victories in 1973, its very first year of competition.
Not one to downplay its racing successes, Porsche has released an informative video detailing the 911 RSR's impressive heritage. The 1973 RSR model owned by the Porsche Museum is detailed beautifully on video, and we have to say it looks absolutely stunning in its vintage Martini Racing livery.
Have a look at the video below for some historic racing action, along with static shots of one of our favorite Porsche models ever created.
Tesla, Porsche and Genesis top Consumer Reports owner satisfaction survey
Fri, Dec 22 2017Tesla swept Consumer Reports' latest Ownership Satisfaction Survey results, notching the top spot among brands evaluated. Its Model S also netted the No. 1 spot among the top 10 most-satisfying cars. Porsche and Genesis, Hyundai's new luxury spinoff, rounded out the top three brands. The bottom of the rankings was anchored by Acura, while Mercedes-Benz notched the least-satisfying car in the survey with the GLA, proving that the results weren't equally kind to all luxury brands. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, told USA Today those brands suffered by introducing cheaper vehicles. The scores, on a 100-point scale, reflect whether owners say the vehicles from model years 2015 through 2018 met their expectations and whether they would buy the same car again. They measure ratings in six categories: driving experience, comfort, value, styling, audio and climate systems (what, no cupholders?). Effectively, it gauges how much people liked the car they bought. Reliability is not considered. The Honda Ridgeline outscored competitors in the compact pickup segment by a wide margin, while the Ford F-350 was among the top 10-ranked vehicles in the survey, the first time in at least five years that a pickup made it into the top 10, Consumer Reports said. In the brand survey, Chrysler rose four places to No. 4 on strong customer satisfaction with the Pacifica minivan, while Hyundai tumbled 11 spots to No. 24 and Lexus fell eight places to 18th. Rounding out the top 10 most satisfying cars were the Porsche 911, Chevrolet Corvette, Lincoln Continental, Mazda MX-5 Miata, Toyota Prius, Tesla Model X SUV, Honda Odyssey minivan and Dodge Challenger. Not surprisingly, most of those cars, and indeed most of the high-ranking brands, are those with strong brand loyalty, fan-like followings and/or those that strike a strong emotional chord with buyers. The full brand rankings are below. Tesla (90) Porsche (85) Genesis (81) Chrysler (78) Audi (76) Mazda (76) Subaru (76) Toyota (76) Honda (75) Lincoln (75) Mini (73) Ram (73) Kia (72) Chevrolet (72) BMW (72) GMC (72) Ford (70) Lexus (70) Volvo (69) Dodge (68) Jeep (68) Mercedes-Benz (67) Volkswagen (67) Hyundai (67) Buick (66) Cadillac (64) Infiniti (60) Mitsubishi (58) Nissan (58) Acura (58) Related Video: Green Genesis Porsche Tesla Ownership satisfaction
