1980 Porsche 924s Turbo

Low RESERVE
So we aquired this 924 that has been sitting for about 5 yr here in
the Az desert. Comes with clear AZ title.
It ran fine when parked a few yrs ago but something was wrong
with the trans or rear diff, at that time the car only had aprox 61k
original miles on it.
We tested to make sure the car runs and it runs with squeeze bottle
of gas and or starting fluid. Once we established the motor ok we then
went to the shifter issues. And this had the typical worn out shifter
bushings. We installed new shifter bushings and fixed up the linkage
and now the trans feels fine as does the shifter. But the best I can tell is
the original reason the car was parked was a broken rear diff.
The car only moves now since we removed the RR axle shaft.
Surprisingly enough it looks like a good used diff can be installed in a
few hours. Not as hard as it looks. Also being that this is an AZ car there
no NO rusty bolts under the car. We had the rear suspension etc down
the other day while fixing the shifter and it came apart quick and easy.
So this auction is for a nice RUST FREE AZ CAR that we know will run
with good gas and possibly a fuel pump needed. It has an exhaust leak
we heard while it was running. Transmission feels okay and shifts now
like it should and will prob need a rear diff.

DRIVETRAIN: original unmolested 2.0 turbo and 5 spd
motor does run . Motor we heard run and sounds good.
No smoke no wierd noises.
Car was parked yrs ago due to what we think it a broken
rear diff.

INTERIOR: was original Leather with sunroof and AC
PW and more, but AZ has been hard on the leather and
plastics, so expect some restoration inside and alot
of cleaning. It does seem to be all original and complete.

EXTERIOR: Super clean AZ rust free body which looks to be
original paint too.Front bumper is crooked and lower valance
does have a dent. No signs of any bondo or rust you would 
find on most cars this old. Rear wing is pretty cool and original.

Suspension: this car has the very rare M471 4 wheel
disc option which automatically comes with the 5 lug
hubs and 928 style flat forged rims (Very rare)
With only aprox 61k on the car which could be original
the bushings may not be all the worn out .
Making the car a driver less costly for the buyer.

This car is 95% rust free Arizona car
Aprox 3400 Turbo 931 model 924s came to the USA
in 1980, making them as rare as a Boss Mustang or
an early Z28 Camaros
This is still a European Muscle car that was ahead of
its time and would be great to restore seeing that its
survived this long thanks to the AZ desert.


Ive driven these cars that are in nice shape and they
are fun to drive and have plenty of power and great
balance right out of the box.

These cars rarely even come up for sale anymore

People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale

Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes.

of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.

2015 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid

Fri, Mar 13 2015

When the Porsche Panamera joined the hybrid poker game with the S Hybrid, it started with a seat at the penny-ante table: engineers inserted a 47-horsepower electric motor between the gas engine and eight-speed automatic, powered by a 1.7-kWh nickel-metal hydride battery. It was tiny stakes, the kind of non-risk taken when you're trying to figure out both how to play the game and how you want to play the game. After two years of experimenting, the 2015 Panamera S E-Hybrid makes a bigger bet – the kind that requires paper bills and the maxim, "If you can't fold it, hold it." Porsche's plug-in hybrid gets every adjective we expect of a successor from Stuttgart: more complex, more efficient, more powerful and faster. Driving Notes The electric motor leaps from 47 hp to 95 hp thanks to more windings on the stator coils and new power electronics. The battery goes from a 1.7-kWh nickel-metal hydride unit to 9.4-kWh lithium-ion setup; it's the same physical size as before, still mounted under the cargo deck. Internal combustion still comes from the Audi-sourced, 333-hp, supercharged V6, but total system power goes from 380 hp and 428 pound-feet of torque in the S Hybrid to 416 hp and 435 lb-ft in the S E-Hybrid. The previous system could run a mile on electricity, this one is estimated to last more than 20 miles on e-power on the European cycle. The 0-60 dash takes 5.2 seconds, down from 5.7 seconds; top speed in electric-only mode is 84 mph – up from 50 mph. It takes 2.5 hours at a 240-volt outlet to fully recharge the battery; the Porsche Universal Charger comes equipped with a cable for that and a standard 120-volt socket. Only Panamera obsessives will notice the sheetmetal changes for 2015, but there are sharper lines on the front and rear fascias, faint revisions made to the light clusters, wider glass – over the same-sized opening – on the rear tailgate, and a wider rear spoiler. Outsiders will know the S E-Hybrid because of Acid Green highlights on the fender and tailgate logos, as well as the Acid Green brake calipers. Inside, the central tach remains, but the analog speedometer was evicted to make space for the battery power meter, and Acid Green needles dance across all the gauges. The navigation screen shows your electric driving range and the Porsche Car Connect service provides the expected, smartphone-controlled e-mobility features.

Porsche 918 Spyder goes ice drifting in Finland

Fri, Feb 13 2015

Along with the Ferrari Laferrari and McLaren P1, the Porsche 918 Spyder is one of the trio of hybrid supercars potentially defining the path for these rarified vehicles going forward. When thinking about high-performance machines like this, the mind usually goes to precise driving around a circuit or maybe along a beautifully undulating road... not so much in the snow. Still, this group has more than enough power to make it through a little bit of powder, and the 918 proves that at the Porsche Driving Experience winter camp in Finland. Although, the set of studded snow tires certainly helps. Even with the trick all-wheel drive system in the Porsche combining a mid-mounted V8 and electric motors, this 918 has absolutely no problem lighting up the rear end in the snow and ice. Even at relatively low speeds, just a blip of the throttle is all it takes for the back tires to step out. However, the handling still looks quite controllable. It's hard to grin as this rare supercar does the Scandinavian Flick to set up a perfect drift between the snow banks.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race

Thu, 06 Jun 2013

When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
