Up for auction is a metallic tan 1978 Porsche 928 with a 5 speed manual transmission. The car has 102,406 miles and has spend its entire life in Colorado, so there are no rust or corrosion concerns. It's a very solid car that just needs some TLC. The engine runs very smoothly with plenty of power and no major leaks. Many components on the fuel injection system have been replaced including the fuel distributor, both fuel pumps, the fuel accumulator, the warm up regulator and the fuel filter. The transmission seems okay. The clutch master and slave cylinders were recently replaced. The car was repainted about 10 years ago and it was definitely not a very good paint job. There are some runs in the paint, and the masking job was not very good, so the whole car needs to be stripped and repainted. In addition, there's a small dent and a deep score on the passenger side door and another small dent on the right rear bumper that happened when my dad had a little mishap getting it out of the garage one day. The current color is metallic tan. The car was originally dark brown. The front fog light trim on the driver's side is not the correct part for this car. The original got lost when the car was repainted. The interior of the car needs some serious attention. Both front and rear seats need to be reupholstered as they were destroyed by the sun. The dash is covered with an aftermarket fabric kit, as it too was decimated by the sun. The carpet is faded, but presentable. The headliner and trim in the back hatch area are also faded. My late father was in the process of installing new speakers in the doors. He put one big Pioneer speaker in the passenger door, but never got to the left door. I do have the original factory speaker as well the other Pioneer, so you can decide what to do with it. I went through the trouble of getting most of the interior electrical items to work as well as installing a new Kenwood/CD/Ipod/MP3 stereo unit. The ignition switch and cylinder are new, but are keyed differently than the hatch and doors. The AC system does not work. It probably needs to be recharged. The auto door locks and the headlight washers don't work. The tires are like new with very little mileage. Two of the Porsche center caps, however, are missing. This was my father's car, and unfortunately he passed away last year. The car sat for a few years, but I got it up and running in the last year or so. I've driven it around the neighborhood and everything seems to work properly. However, the car isn't currently registered, so I haven't really driven it on the highway or major streets. It would probably make it 30 or 40 miles up the interstate to Colorado Springs. Any further than that, and I would probably recommend hauling it or getting a transport service to get it home. With a paint job and interior TLC, it could be a very nice car.

Wingsuits are somehow involved in new season of 'Top Gear'
Mon, Jan 14 2019It's a shame that Matt LeBlanc is leaving "Top Gear," but there's a bit of solace in the situation: There's still one more season of him as frontman. BBC just released the new trailer for series 26, and it shows LeBlanc, Chris Harris and Rory Reid getting into all sorts of shenanigans around the globe. "Top Gear" announced LeBlanc's imminent departure back in May 2018, but he still had to finish one more season before leaving. Thus, the upcoming series will be his last, and it looks like he'll go out in a whirlwind of dust, bent metal, water spray and burnt rubber. The trailer shows everything expected from a season of the storied automotive show (well, everything except Hammond, May, and Clarkson, if you're one of those people). There will be precision driving, dubious stunts, name-calling and gobs of stunning videography. In the short one-minute clip, there are flashes of numerous attention-piquing vehicles. The new Bentley Continental GT, a Bentley Le Mans racer, Porsches, Ferraris, the Aston Martin Vantage, and the Mercedes-AMG GT all make appearances. And for some random fun, the boys are seen in wingsuits (doubtful it's actually them), and playing polo in some three-wheel rickshaws (before wrecking said rickshaws). We'll update with more information as soon as we know when the show will start.

Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs. Mercedes SLS AMG Black in battle of who can shred more rubber
Fri, 04 Apr 2014We might be looking at the end of an era in European performance models. Mercedes-Benz is doing away with the SLS in favor of a rumored smaller and cheaper SLC, and Porsche has said that a new 911 GT2 isn't necessarily a sure thing, which means another 911 GT2 RS is even farther away. In its latest video, Evo's Jethro Bovingdon pits the ultimate versions of these German sports coupes against each other and finds two of the fastest cars the magazine has ever lapped around its track.
In one corner, there is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series that sits as the pinnacle of the company's halo model. It relies on the classic setup of a V8 mounted in front powering the rear wheels. On the other side, there is the 911 GT2 RS with a turbocharged flat-six mounted at the back, spinning the rear wheels. It was conceived to be Porsche's ultimate expression of a turbocharged 911, and while it's a few years old, Bovingdon shows that it's up to the task of racing a more modern rival.
Both of these rear-wheel-drive monsters are more than capable of some fantastically smoky power-slides, but they also show how great the last generation of sports cars was. Scroll down to check out the video.
Evo makes the case for the world's best driving road in Majorca
Tue, 05 Aug 2014What good is a sports car if you haven't got a great place to drive it? It's a common refrain that we've heard time and time again. But few are as familiar with the problem as they are in the UK, where the number of people, cars on the road and traffic cameras keep growing to conspire against the joy of driving. Leave it to Evo, then, to depart in search of the greatest driving road in the world.
It's a pursuit that's taken the British car mag across Europe, most recently to Romania's Carpathian Mountains where it added the Transalpina Pass to its short list. But its latest journey has taken Evo to the Spanish island of Majorca, where Henry Catchpole found not one, but two spectacular driving roads from behind the wheel of the new Porsche Boxster GTS. We could drone on about the smooth, empty ribbons of twisting tarmac with excellent visibility and panoramic vistas... but you really want to see the video for yourself. Don't miss Evo's previous trip to Romania in the Jaguar F-Type, which we've included below, as well.
