1976 Porsche 914 2.0L 68,661 miles w/Air Conditioning
You are bidding on a 1976 Porsche 914. This is a great car and with very rare working A/C. The car has been driven very little since the early 90's but was run in its garage regularly. The engine runs great and has the usual seepage oil leaks but no dripping oil and is very clean burning with no smoke. The transmission shifts perfect and clutch works perfect. There is a little leak from the speedometer drive on the transmission but fluid is clean and full. The suspension, shocks, bushings, tie rods, wheel bearings, etc are in good condition with nothing loose or worn. Brakes are good but squeak a little on slow breaking. I suspect from rust on the rotors from not been driven very much. 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 which are shown in the pictures. 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 very good except the passenger side seal from the top down to the door. Pictured. 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. I took a couple of pictures to show this. 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. But there are a couple of flaws. A shopping cart dent below the mirror on the left door and one below the door handle on the right side. With its color you have to be close and with the correct light angle to see them. Also the front hood has had a repaint at sometime in its life and it was not done very well. Again with the correct light and angle there is some trash and sanding lines that can be seen. It may be able to be buffed out??? From the pictures you can not see them so I mention it here. Overall this car has a great look and presents its self very well but will require a TLC on the cosmetics to be a perfect car !!! I work very hard to present my cars as best as possible and my customers have been very happy with their purchases so if you have any questions please ask them before you bid and keep my rating at 100% positive !!!

Well hello, Carice, you Porsche-aping EV cutie
Wed, Jul 9 2014Ah, the joy that comes open-air motoring with the in your hair and the roar of the exhaust behind you. Well, maybe not as much anymore. In recent years, vehicles like the Tesla Roadster have made the concept of the electric sports car palatable. Now, Dutch automaker Carice is following suit with a classically inspired EV speedster called the MK1. The MK1 clearly wears its design inspiration on its sleeve. It would be difficult to look at this styling and not immediately see a Porsche 356 Speedster; It has the same upside-down bathtub shape with big round headlights and likely the tiniest taillights on a production car in years. The Carice is also clearly meant for fair weather motoring because there's no top, just a tonneau cover to protect the interior from the rain while it's sitting. One thing that the Dutch company is definitely getting right is the weight. It claims that the MK1 weighs a dainty 772 pounds, including the battery pack. The low weight doesn't mean the MK1 is going to be lighting quick, though. It's being offered with a choice of three electric motors with 5 horsepower (for 16-year-old drivers in the Netherlands), 20 hp or 53 hp, and there are two sizes of battery pack. Buyers can also opt for a range-extending internal combustion engine. The 53-hp motor allows for a top speed of 62 miles per hour and a 124-mile range with the larger battery. Carice says its also willing to fit larger batteries or more power motors, at the buyer's expense, of course. Carice plans to build an initial production run of 10 cars with prices starting at 22,000 euros, before Dutch taxes (about $30,000). The company hasn't released a press release about the MK1, but you can learn more about speedster on its website; it's in Dutch, though.

Meet the main man behind the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We have yet to catch our breath from our first drive of the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3, but if you're still not sold on the fact that this track-ready 911 is only offered with a PDK transmission, then you should take it up with Andreas Preuninger. Preuninger is the guy who led the team responsible for the latest GT3. Porsche has released a video giving a little backstory of what went into the development of the car, which had as its goal the creation of a pure, rewarding 911 driving experience.
The video captures the sights and sounds of the GT3 perfectly. Perhaps the best part is listening to Preuninger describe one of the defining moments that resulted in replacing the GT3's manual gearbox with the PDK. We don't want to ruin the video for you, so scroll down to check it out for yourself.
UK Porsche GT3 owners are irked that other countries are getting better deals
Sun, 27 Apr 2014Porsche 911 GT3 owners in the United Kingdom are up in arms, but it's not for the reason you might think. Okay, well it sort of is. See, it's been fairly well documented that 911 GT3 owners have had their cars grounded over concerns that the engines could catch fire. Porsche is rushing to build and install replacement engines in all 800 or so cars, scattered around the globe.
This isn't really the issue. The problem for these British owners is compensation. While the car's have been grounded, car notes still need to be paid. To deal with this, American GT3 owners are being paid $2,000 per month. German owners get 175 euros ($242 at today's rates) per day while a GT3 owner in Dubai is allegedly receiving $12,000 (it's unclear if this is a lump sum or a monthly payment). Basically, if you aren't able to drive your six-figure super car, you shouldn't have to pay for it. Seems reasonable regardless of the make.
British owners, though, aren't being compensated, and for 30 to 35 owners, that's not acceptable. They've banded together and are led by Sunil Mehra.
