Thanks for taking a look at my 1975 Porsche 914 1.8
  • I purchased the car 3 years ago in Colorado from the original owner's estate. 
  • Original books, keys, tools, lots of receipts documenting actual original mileage
  • Never restored (never needed it), retains amazing originality
  • Extremely dry and original except for a very high quality respray in the original color "back in the '90s"
  • I have taken many pix of the undercarriage and the "usual suspect" areas prone to corrosion - all dry and original including battery tray and "hell hole"
  • The completely original and very rare red plaid cloth interior is a solid 9: small dash crack above the ashtray, drivers carpet heel pad worn, non-original but 'period' Pioneer Super Tuner
You would be just the 3rd owner of this really great 'survivor' car. Here are some more details:

The car was purchased new from Bryntesen Porsche Audi in Hinsdale IL on 5/15/75 and around 1978 moved to very dry and salt free Glenwood Springs Colorado where it was regularly driven and maintained by the original owner until I purchased the car in July 2011. Upon arrival in NJ I gave it a thorough cleaning, tune up, etc. I put a set of original type Fuchs polished alloys (on Nitto 195/60's) and have driven it to the Northern Adirondacks, the Eastern Shore, Hamptons, Hershey etc without any issues what so ever. I live a few miles from the end of Route 80 and would not hesitate to drive it all the way to the other end of Route 80 tomorrow. This thing gets about 35mpg, starts right up every time, runs super smooth, and thanks to the lower stance (rides about 1.5" lower) handles like a go cart.

I have owned several 914s and looked at lots of them before buying this one, which just could not be passed up. Very hard to find one like this, and you so rarely see that interior in this shape. It a true, honest, well documented car with nothing to hide. A personal inspection is welcome, and I will answer all questions promptly as well as assist in shipping. Of course the car is sold as-is, where-is without any warranties written or implied. You will not be disappointed in this car and will be hard pressed to find a better [mostly] original. Bid with confidence and good luck.

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.

Porsche rolls out new 919 Hybrid at racing gala

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

That Porsche is returning to Le Mans next year with a top-tier LMP1 entry is no news - we've known that for some time. We've even seen pictures of the car in question undergoing testing at various racetracks across Europe, been told who'll be driving it and given some basic parameters of what will make it go. We just haven't known what to call it, but now we do.
In detailing its full endurance racing program for next year at its Night of Champions in Weissach, Porsche has revealed that its new LMP1 racecar will be called the 919 Hybrid. So, something like the 918 Spyder, only one faster. With a four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors, the 919 Hybrid will be taking on the top class at Le Mans next year, with a compelling roster of drivers on the docket: along with Mark Webber, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani, Porsche has assigned its works driver Marc Lieb and F1 test driver Brendon Hartley to the effort. But that's not all Porsche has in store.
The factory is also supporting teams that will campaign the 911 RSR in the FIA World Endurance Championship as well as the United SportsCar Championship here in the US, taking Porsche off the pit wall and right in the race seat for next year as part of a comprehensive new racing program, details of which you can read in the press release below.
