1978 Porsche 924, Track Ready...turn Key And Go Race Also Street Legal on 2040-cars
Fargo, North Dakota, United States
This is a 1978 Porsche 924 built by Bill Katz (Katz Klassics)in the mid 90s. I visited with Bill, a well know car builder, before I purchased the car last year. Bill said he put the "best of the best" in the car for his wife to race at the track. You can check out his e bay store and his website to see some of his items. Bottom line is this car was built by an expert and is a ton of fun to take to the track. I wanted to get started in road track driving and found the car for sale last year in Minnesota. I invested some money to go through the brake system (replaced rear brake hoses), 4 wheel alignment for the track and had a general overall tune up to run at the track including; New Inner Wheel and Outer Wheel Bearings and a new strut to replace one that was leaking. This car had no problem passing track inspection and I ran it last September. Visiting with Bill regarding what he put into the car, he recently told me: Turbo fuel pump, Audi 5cy turbo fuel pressure valve regulator, throttle body was ported out, adjustable cam gear, Ansa exhaust system off turbo model. He also lowered the car with a spring kit. Other details I know about the car:
I will also include RARE 14" Hoosier race slicks that have 3 laps on them, a total of five additional tires for track use that are basically NEW. I purchased from a dealer who witnessed the three test laps run in Wisconsin. From the pictures you will see extra rubber that the tires picked up because it was a very hot that day but they basically have 100% tread on them as you can see from the pictures. Each of these tires would retail around $200.00. I stored the tires off the rims for the winter in a climate controlled environment. In addition, I will include 5 extra original Porsche rims. Tires and wheels are shown in pictures. I put a reserve on it but it is rather low. Really looking forward to running this car at the track this summer and don't want to sell but I need to make room for the other toys. It is a great car to get into road track with. Handles great and has enough speed to keep it interesting. Terms of Sale, SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY PLEASE! PLEASE DON'T BID UNLESS YOU HAVE ALL THE MONEY.

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder
Mon, 14 Apr 2014That 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.
Some kind of Porsche 911 spied in Germany
Wed, May 20 2015Seeing a Porsche undergoing testing in Germany – even at the Nurburgring – is hardly a rare sight. But this one has us scratching our heads. Though almost entirely devoid of any sort of camouflage, this particular 911 clearly has something going on. It's got LED daytime running lights (similar in appearance to those on the Cayman GT4) integrated into the front end, extra air vents around back, and a pair of exhaust tips poking out the middle of the rear bumper. In the end, we could be looking at the upcoming facelift scheduled for the 911 that will see it shift to forced induction across the entire range (save for the GT3 and GT3 RS) – or this could be another version of the existing model. Porsche has been known to churn out a steady stream of those, after all. One way or another, though, it looks like we'll be finding out sooner than later – judging from how ready this particular Elfen looks to hit the show stand and showroom.

The mood at this year’s Paris Motor Show: Quiet
Tue, Oct 2 2018The Paris Motor Show, held every other year in the early fall, typically kicks off the annual cavalcade of automotive conclaves, one that traverses the globe between autumn and spring, introducing projective, conceptual and production-ready vehicle models to the international automotive press, automotive aficionados and a public hungry for news of our increasingly futuristic mobility enterprise. But this year, at the press preview days for the show, the grounds of the Porte de Versailles convention center felt a bit more sparsely populated than usual. This was not simply a subjective sensation, or one influenced by the center's atypically dispersed assemblage of seven discrete buildings, which tends to spread out the cars and the crowds. There were not only fewer new vehicles being premiered in Paris this year, there were fewer manufacturers there to display them. Major mainstream European OEM stalwarts such as Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Nissan and Volkswagen chose to sit out Paris this year, as did boutique manufacturers like Bentley, Aston Martin and Lamborghini. This is not simply based in some antipathy on the part of the German, British and Italian manufacturers toward the French market — though for a variety of historical and societal reasons that market may be more dominated by vehicles produced domestically than others. Rather, it is part of a larger trend in the industry. Last year, Mercedes-Benz announced that it would not be participating in the flagship North American International Auto Show in 2019 — and that it might not return. Other brands including Jaguar/Land Rover, Audi, Porsche, Mazda and nearly every exotic carmaker have also departed the Detroit show. Some of these brands will still appear in the city in which the show is taking place, and host an event offsite, to capitalize on the presence of a large number of reporters in attendance. And even brands that do have a presence at the show have shifted their vehicle introductions to the days before the official press opening in an attempt to stand out from the crowd. In many ways, this makes sense. With an expanding number of automakers, with diversification and niche-ification of models and with wholesale shifts that necessitate the introduction of EV or autonomous sub-brands, there is a growing sense that, with everyone shouting at the same time, no one can be heard.
