RE-LISTED DUE TO NON PAYING BIDDER (jhusard is the eBay handle, beware) WHO COULDN'T ADHERE TO THE SIMPLE POLICY THAT IF YOU HAVE ZERO FEEDBACK (& no money) PLEASE DO NOT BID. HE JUMPED IN LAST MINUTE AND 'WON' THE AUCTION, AND THEN, OF COURSE, VANISHED, AND NEVER RESPONDED OR FOLLOWED THROUGH, MAKING ME LOOK LIKE I'M PLAYING EBAY GAMES, WHICH I AM NOT. I'M SIMPLY TRYING TO SELL A VERY NICE, ORIGINAL PORSCHE 924, TO AN APPRECIATING ENTHUSIAST OR COLLECTOR. SO HERE GOES ROUND TWO... You are witnessing a rare opportunity at a true 'time capsule' Porsche 924, from 1978. When released in 1977, the 924 represented not only an entirely new direction for Porsche A.G., but also a number of big firsts for the company as well: First front engine model, first water cooled model, first optional automatic transmission. With the 1978 model year, came complete galvanizing, and comprehensive rust proof protection. At the top of the order, was the rare 'Limited Edition' model, loaded with every modern luxury and amenity available at the time. The example you are considering today, is among the cleanest, most original, well kept remaining anywhere. It was purchased new at Williams Porsche/VW by Dr. Gordon Devries, and has been owned by he and his family ever since (until this summer). With the vehicle purchase, comes not only the original window sticker, but also the original, hand written bill of sale (see pics). There is even a dash plaque presented from Porsche to Dr. Devries. The vehicle is even still titled in the original owner's name. Dr. Devries enjoyed his 924 on nice days on the short commute from home to the hospital for nearly 30 years before his retirement. It was only ever driven in friendly weather conditions. Any service and needs were always taken care of promptly through the years, and the 924 has also in the last year had a complete freshening, with new or updated battery, belts, brakes, and any other mechanical needs addressed. We even upgraded to R-134, and now the A/C blows ice cold. The car runs and drives as well as it did in 1978. There are subtle signs of loving use (a couple buffer marks, random scratches and nicks) that come with 35 years of careful use. They help to show the originality of the car. Early entry level Porsches (non 911 cars!), have shown an interesting pattern in the last several years. From the 912 to the 914, the once shadowed cars have really emerged as valuable and rapidly appreciating assets. Many feel the excellent handling (50/50 balance transaxle set up), and exceptional fuel economy will propel the 924 in value in the near future. The limited number of well kept original cars, will of course make those the catalysts of the curve. In their excellent and comprehensive collector vehicle evaluator, this is what automotive authority Hagerty has to say about the 924: "Today, the tables have turned somewhat and to some entry-level collectors, the 924 (particularly those in bright colors with the wild op-art checked “Pasha” interiors) can occasionally be more desirable than the more complex and maintenance-intensive. With fully galvanized bodies after 1977, the 924 can be a durable, simple fun first Porsche. The remaining few good ones are worth seeking out." The overall amazing original condition, coupled with the single ownership, loving care, and rare limited edition package put this example at the top of the 924 heap. Obtain yours now, before the world catches on to the unique combination of fun, high performance handling and economical value that the 924 represents. This is a NO RESERVE auction. High bid takes it, so bid to win & own! I encourage all potential buyers to come inspect the car in person prior to buying or bidding. Your bid is a binding contract. Feel free to call me with any questions or for more information. Car condition is subjective. I have owned over 100 Porsches, and am picky about my cars, but potential owners should decide for themselves if this car is for them. Car is sold AS IS, WHERE IS. I reserve the right to end the auction early for any reason. Transportation is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer. International bidders are welcome, but please have U.S. funds and transportation arranged prior to auctions end. Zero or negative feedback bidders please contact me prior to bidding or your bid may be cancelled. Please only bid or offer if you are serious. Finally, feel free to email or call me at 574-361-5315 with any questions, more details, or if you'd like to make an offer. Good luck!

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.
Porsche planning more plug-ins
Mon, Jan 5 2015Which automaker offers the most plug-in models in the industry? The answer may surprise you, because it's not Toyota, it's not Renault or Nissan or any other automaker that might spring to mind. The answer is Porsche, which already offers the Cayenne and Panamera in plug-in hybrid spec in addition to the 918 Spyder. And it could offer more in the near future. Speaking with Automotive News, Porsche's global sales and marketing chief Bernhard Maier spoke of the importance of plug-in range-extended models to the company's future plans. The 55-year-old executive, who endeavors to make his 56-mile round-trip daily commute from home to the company's headquarters in Stuttgart entirely emissions free, indicated that his company only plans to offer more plug-in models. Previous reports indicated that E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera wouldn't fit in the Macan, and that no such plans were in store for the Boxster, Cayman or 911. But when asked what Porsche had in store for the future, Maier replied: "We have a lot of ideas, but we have not approved them for production yet. The 918 Spyder shows that Porsche has the capability to produce very convincing hybrid sports cars." While clearly guarded, Maier's answer points to a future of more plug-in hybrid models from the storied German marque. All that remains to be seen is whether that will come in the form of a Boxster, Cayman, Macan or another new model altogether, like the rumored mini-Panamera dubbed Pajun or a mid-engined V8 supercar.
Porsche Fire and Ice is chilling art born of flames
Wed, 01 Jan 2014Porsche held a contest inviting ten filmmakers to riff on the tagline for the Panamera, "Thrilling Contradictions," in a 60-second film. The winner was an entry called Fire and Ice by director Ross Cohen, a concept that uses just those two elements in a premise as simple as it is rewarding. For his efforts, Cohen will receive a trip to the Chicago International Film Festival, and you might see the short in the pre-movie advertisements in a theater served by Spotlight Cinema Networks.
Porsche did this kind of thing just two years ago, when it asked filmmakers to illustrate the idea of "Everyday Magic". The winner of that contest, Michael Korbel's It's a Magical Life, followed the journey of a young man to husband and father from the perspective of the trunk of a 911. You'll find that video as well as Fire and Ice below.
