This is a great car and with very rare dealer-installed OEM A/C. The car was bought new in Texas, and I bought from the second Texas
owner: always a Texas car. The odometer shows 68,661 miles, but does not spin (mileage exempt due to classic
status). All other gauges/lights work. Based on how it looks, fit/finish, and how it drives, I seriously doubt it
has clicked over the 100k mark, in my opinion.
Until recently, the car was driven very little since the early 90's but was run in its garage regularly. The engine
runs great and has no dripping oil and is very clean burning with no smoke. The transmission shifts perfectly and
clutch works perfectly. The suspension, shocks, bushings, tie rods, wheel bearings, etc. are in good condition with
nothing loose or worn. Brakes are good. Nearly $11,000.00 has been spent since March of last year making this an
excellent, attractive and reliable driver. Among the improvements: 5 new Pirelli tires 4 with just a few hundred
miles, and the spare never on the ground (warranty docs convey). New muffler (OEM), rear bearings, new
weather-stripping and window adjustments for sealing, new OEM seals all around the car including doors, targa roof,
both trunks, etc., new spark plug insert, new plugs/tune, fresh fluids throughout, all new brakes, caliper kits,
hoses, pads, rear trunk lock, etc. The car is ready to drive, and it will be a joy! All work done by well known
and highly respected professional Porsche specialist shop in San Antonio.
The interior is almost perfect and certainly for its age is in very good condition. There is one small crack on the
top of the instrument cluster housing and the dash has no cracks. There are a couple of nicks in the seats and
center pad. Door panels are perfect. Carpet is in good condition. You can see from the pictures the overall
condition of the interior is excellent. The top and door seals are new, OEM. Anybody that knows these cars always
checks the battery tray and the subsequent rust trail from the battery tray to the back corner of the passenger
seat. On this car it is very clean and no rust is evident. Both trunks are perfect and look like they just come off
the showroom floor. Now the body!!!. The body and chassis on this car are rust free. The bumpers are in great shape
but need a little buffing to get the shine back. The overall look of the car as you can see in the pictures is
almost perfect, with new, very high quality two tone paint (original Porsche 914 colors). Overall this car has a
great look and presents its self very well. It starts, runs, shifts, and stops as it should, and is a dream to
drive. A near perfect car !!!
1976 was the final year for the Porsche 914. Owned by Porsche Club of America (PCA) member (and racer in a 1971
914-4 2L race car).

2015 Porsche 911 GTS widens your rear-engined choices

Fri, Nov 21 2014

"Porsche needs to offer more versions of the 911" is not a phrase you'll hear uttered often. Not with 15 versions already in the catalog. But with the opening of this year's LA Auto Show, Porsche has introduced four more to bring the total up to nineteen variants. And more are no doubt on the way. What you're looking at is the new Porsche 911 GTS, which has grown from one model in the previous generation to four. Buyers will be able to choose between rear- or all-wheel drive and between coupe and cabriolet body-styles, but either way they'll be looking at a 3.8-liter flat six with 430 horsepower. That slots it in between the base Carrera and the GT3, but unlike the hardcore latter, it can be had with choice of manual or dual-clutch transmission – bringing the available configurations of 911 GTS up to eight. Spec the DCT and you'll be reaching 60 in as little as 3.8 seconds, but the pleasure won't come cheap: prices range from $114,200 for the rear-drive coupe to $132,800 for the all-wheel-drive cabrio, plus another $995 for delivery. But for that much scratch you also get the Powerkit, Sport Chrono package, wider track, lower suspension, Xenon headlamps, Alcantara trim, 20-inch alloys and more all thrown in as standard.

Porsche Cayman GT4 spotted at the N?rburgring

Tue, 13 May 2014

It was just the other day that we first caught wind of Porsche's plans to build a GT4 version of the Cayman, and now we're already looking at spy shots of the vehicle in question undergoing testing at - where else? - the Nürburgring.
With more aggressive front-end aero, a GT3-style air vent ahead of the front hood, a large wing at the back, and spindly alloys packed with over-sized brakes at each corner, this Cayman is clearly more extreme than even the range-topping GTS. The rear diffuser and central exhaust tips look about the same as those you'd find at the back of the Cayman GTS, though.
What we can't see, of course, is what Porsche has slotted in under the rear glass, how it's upgraded the interior and how much weight it's stripped out of the thing to get it down to fighting weight, but you can bet it'll come with a substantial power bump and a stripped-out interior with racing buckets and little else to open the gap between it and the GTS... and close the gap to the 911 GT3 which it will join as the baby brother in Porsche's performance-focused lineup.

1986 Porsche 959 Prototype at Barrett-Jackson sees gavel fall at $440,000 [UPDATE: w/video]

Sat, 19 Jan 2013

Fans of Porsche in America have longed for the chance to buy a 959 ever since the German automaker produced and sold it (well, sold it everywhere but the United States...) in the 1980s. Well, they just had their chance. The car you see above is a Porsche 959 prototype built in 1986, and only one other running prototype still exists.
The 959 prototype can't be driven on public roads, as it carries no such certification. Somehow, we doubt that matters all that much to the new buyer - this one is probably going to be sitting in a collection. When the gavel finally fell, bidding had reached $400,000, plus a 10-percent buyer's fee.
Check out our high-res image gallery above to see this prototype up close, and scroll down below to watch a video of it crossing the auction block and for its official auction description.
