Great turn key hard to find unmolested original car with low miles.
this 1974 Porsche Euro 914 2.0 is in terrific condition and was very well cared for, unfortunately the owner passed away.
It is an original silver car with only one repaint. Always a garaged California car. The odometer works and shows 27,000.
The body is rust free and no sign of accidents or damage although there is a small depression ding on rear right quarter near the turn signal see photos.
It is very complete and everything works electrically, lights, turn signals, emergency warning, lighter ect..
Mechanically excellent, the original engine maintains its fuel injection and starts up on the first turn of the crank. It has a super nice tone thru a Monza style sport exhaust system. It has a really nice rumble to it...

It has fairly new tires all around on original 2.0 Fuchs alloy (5)wheels in excellent condition.
The 5 speed transmission shifts very smoothly in all gears at any speed with no grinding.
The GA code engine runs excellent with plenty of power, and is clean and tidy. Appears to be a low miler.
The battery was relocated to the front trunk to avoid any potential "hell hole" damage to develop.
All lights, fog lights, gauges and clock,  function as they should. The oem lenses look awesome.
The Targa top is in excellent condition and still fits nicely in the rear trunk over the spare Fuchs.
Body is strait smooth original panels with beautiful tight gaps with minimal chips. paint is 9/10.
The bumpers are strait and rubber tops are like new, no warping or chips.
Doors close tight and windows roll up quickly. All locks and keys function.
Original rubber seals in great condition, front widshield has a small spider crack on lower left side.
.
The interior is original except for the very comfortable Scheel type sport seat, perfectly holds you in tight turns.
The dash has some cracks but is still solid, it has a dash mat covering.
There was no records only the owners manual, a maintenance book and a tool kit.(included with the sale)
Title is free and clear. Collector blue plate NOT included.

The car is very quick and tight, the suspension feels very nice and handles wonderfully on mountain drives where this car really demonstrates its handling superiority. A real enjoyable experience and the best 914 I have ever driven, bar none.
Never mind that the 73-74 2.0's are rising fast in value, just buy it to drive it fast instead.

Porsche's former CEO Wiedeking to stand trial over VW-share manipulation

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (left in the above photo) could potentially be facing some time in the slammer after all. The last we had heard, he and former Chief Financial Officer Holger Haerter (right) had avoided a trial in April due to a lack of evidence. However, an appeals court in Stuttgart has looked at the case again and overruled the earlier decision, finding that the executives should be tried for share manipulation during Porsche's failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008, Bloomberg reports.
The judges in the appeal "list numerous indications that could suggest that there was a hidden decision to increase the stake as they could suggest the opposite evaluation by the lower court," said Stefan Schueler, a spokesperson for the court, in a statement cited by Bloomberg. Wiedeking and Haerter put out their own releases saying that there was no merit to the charges.
The prosecutors allege that Wiedeking and Haerter had a plan to buy up VW stock options in 2008 to take the automotive giant over but hid it from investors. The whole thing was a massive failure and eventually allowed VW the chance to acquire Porsche and forced the two execs to step down. In addition to the criminal investigation, hedge funds have attempted to sue the company multiple times in civil court for the same reason, but they have repeatedly failed.

Porsche goes karting in its Cayman GTS

Sun, 03 Aug 2014

Think Mini is the king of Go-Kart Handling[TM]? Well, you might be mistaken, as Porsche proves here it's fully capable of delivering a driving experience that'd fit in quite nicely on a go-kart track.
Using a new and very red Cayman GTS, the Stuttgart-based manufacturer invades a kart track in northern Italy and sets the mid-engined sports car loose to slip, slide and zip its way around the circuit. As far as videos for Sunday evening go, this one ticks all the boxes.
Take a look.

2015 Porsche Cayenne GTS proves performance is relative

Thu, Nov 20 2014

The Turbo may be the most powerful model in the Cayenne range, but the GTS is arguably the enthusiast's choice. (In so far as a 4,500-pound crossover can be considered an "enthusiast's choice," anyway.) And now, after refreshing the rest of the Cayenne lineup, Porsche has revealed the new Cayenne GTS, alongside its new 911 GTS stablemate, here at the LA Auto Show. Like the new Cayenne S, the new GTS drops the previous version's atmospheric V8 for a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6, but ups the output to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque to propel Zuffenhausen's portliest to 62 in a scant 5.2 seconds. Alongside the power upgrade, the GTS gets a lowered air suspension and sportier exhaust, the beefier brakes from the Cayenne Turbo and an upgraded aero kit to help with the whole barn-door-profile thing. Just don't expect all that extra kit and the prestige of a Porsche badge on your crossover to come cheap, with prices starting at $95,500 (plus $995 destination).
