Too many projects for me to finish this beauty, restoration needs to be completed. It has been covered for the last 6 years and hasn't been driven on the road since then. The engine starts and runs but will start smoking after the engine warms up. I am pretty sure it is burning oil when it is smoking. The engine probably needs an overhaul. It will need to be towed, however, it will drive up on ramps and drive under its own power.


5 speed manual, side shift transmission 

1.8L 4 cylinder 

Twin Weber 40 IDF carbs (car was originally fuel injected, previous owner put these carbs on). Extra jets and carb parts and manuals come with

MSD Ignition

Targa Top

Interior is in decent shape, just needs a deep cleaning

Brake calipers have been rebuilt , new brake pads, new tires and new suspension, were all installed about 6 years ago but has only a few hundred miles on them.

New battery installed this month


I had painted the car  when I first got it about 6 years ago but shortly after I painted it, the temporary car port it was in collapsed onto the hood and top of the car, that is why there is brown primer on the hood and top. It didn't dent the car, just scratched the paint up. It appears that the middle part of the floorpan has been reinforced, see photos. The only rust through that I have seen is in the original battery compartment and rear trunk.


It comes with multiple boxes of extra parts, interior center console that needs to be finished, extra rear deck lid and repair manuals.


Mileage says 66,703 but I am sure it it 166,703 (only 5 digit odometer). Let me know if you have any questions or want additional photos.

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

That title about says it all. This is a hot lap of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, with Porsche Works Driver Patrick Long at the wheel of a Porsche 918 Spyder. The camera is basically showing us everything that Long sees, making this not just one of the coolest 918 videos we've seen, but also one of the neatest laps of CoTA.
As Long peers through the bends, so will you. You'll see him fight the wheel, and find out just how difficult it is to hustle this hybrid hypercar around a world-class track at speed. It's pretty darn entertaining. There are also a few scattered shots of the 918's exterior just to break up the interior awesomeness, although we aren't exactly complaining about those. Take a look below for the short video from Porsche.

Porsche expects to hit 200k sales target 3 years early

Fri, Jan 9 2015

When Porsche launched the Cayenne, enthusiasts and purists – in between fits of rage – rationalized the SUVs existence by imagining that the money it brought in would guarantee the company's continued ability to produce the many beloved versions of its 911. The same was said when the Panamera arrived, and again when the Macan was unveiled. What probably wasn't imagined when these three more mainstream vehicles joined the Porsche catalog, was how dramatic an impact they'd have on the company's sales figures. The company expects 2015 to be a banner year, as it aims to hit a 200,000-unit sales goal three years ahead of schedule. Porsche sold nearly 190,000 units in 2014, a gain of 17 percent over 2013, while its year-over-year sales for December were up 39 percent. Considering Porsche made these gains before the full impact of the new Macan could be felt, it's no wonder the company is so keen on 2015. Porsche has already moved 45,000 Macans, which would be impressive on its own, were it not for the way the CUV is elevating the brand. According to a report from Reuters, two-thirds of the company's Macan deliveries have been to first-time Porsche customers. Considering these two facts, it will be extremely interesting to see the impact Porsche's newest model has on its sales over a full calendar year.

China may surpass US as Porsche's largest market this year thanks to Cayenne

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

China has already surpassed the United States as the world's largest automotive market, so it's no surprise that one day soon it will be the world's largest Porsche market.
In fact, that day may already be here, as the PRC's Porschephiles outbought their American counterparts in September. Porsche's Chinese dealers sold 4,344 cars last month to America's 3,607. Through all of 2014 so far, though, the US is still the larger market for the German brand.
"The U.S. performed very well this year, after a great year in 2013, but China is growing fast, thanks to the Cayenne which is our best seller there," Porsche's sales and marketing boss, Bernhard Maier, told Automotive News Europe.
