  • Today for sale I have a 1979 Porsche 928! This is the rare 5 speed! The 928 was Porsche's first mass produced V8! Everywhere I go people stop to look at this amazing car! There are receipts for almost everything that has been done to this car for the last 7 years. The records that I have for things that have been done are:

    2006 - freon added, inspection passed
    2007-condenser
    2008- magna flow, chrome tips, stalks, hangers, steering wheel horn gold button, CV Boot set of 4, bought owners manual, quickpods 6.5 ABS speaker pod with recessed face, silicone oil pan gasket, upper ball joint repair, alignment, Koni performance shocks
    2010- water pump, replace timing belt, fill and bleed cooling system, set ignition timing, inspection passed
    2011- rebuild manual transaxle, new interstate battery, alignment, axle boot kit
    2012- car repainted (used original Porsche black), new front chin spoiler, inspection passed
    2013- new electric window motors (driver and passenger)

    The car has Ricaro bucket racing seats, Koni adjustable shocks in the rear, front chin spoiler, carbon fiber torque bar, after market racing steering wheel (momo?)...this car is set to run! The transmission and clutch are strong! All windows, lights, horn, etc work!   CLEAN title in hand! You will not be disappointed in this car!
    The thing I can think of that needs help on the car is the air conditioner. It needs to be hooked back up and probably charged.  Also recently the odometer, trip, and tack have stopped working.  I don't know what is wrong, but have been told it may be a cable.  The car has less than 50,000 miles on it.  I have the service records that keep track of the mileage through the years that show this also. 

    You are more than welcome to come look at and inspect the car before you bid.  If you need any additional pictures just ask.  Shipping the car, if necessary, will be up to the buyer to arrange and pay for.  There will be a non refundable $500 deposit via Paypal within 24 hours of auction end.  The balance will need to be paid in cash upon pick up.

    There's a Porsche Cayman under here somewhere

    Wed, 15 Jan 2014

    What we have here is the work of Dubai tuner Royal Customs that is controversial even beyond its styling. The Middle East aftermarket house says it spent fourteen months developing a bodykit for the Porsche Cayman, and the results seem to be aimed at those who wish their coupe were a 918 Spyder - the nose, strake-filled and widened rear fender, carbon fiber wing and massive diffuser all cribbing some from Stuttgart's new hybrid supercar.
    Even without a buyer, the Alpha One Concept is already controversial. When WorldCarFans posted on the Royal Customs car recently, German tuner Alpha-N Performance wrote in alleging that the Dubai package copies their design from two years ago, which was also called the Alpha One, a design with which it's clear the Dubai Alpha One shares numerous cues. We asked Royal Customs about its relationship to the Alpha One car, we were told, "Yes, there is a lot we can say about the remarkable similarities all of which will be explained by our press release by Mr. Emil from Autogespot. Please wait for the official release and you will have the full exciting story. It's an 'actual success story' and not a 'replication' story."
    The response is referring to an "extensive report" on the car coming out of Autogespot. Royal Customs doesn't have the Alpha One Concept on its site yet, so we're still missing quite a few details on it, such as whether the Porsche engine has been given a similarly 918-ish workover. We do know that the company says each car takes 30 days to build and it will only build three of them, which is a number that should satisfy any haters and, even more so, its buyers. You can decide which side of the fence you're on by having a close look at it in the gallery above.

    Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year

    Thu, 14 Nov 2013

    Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
    But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
    To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).

    Porsche Macan fails moose test, Stuttgart responds

    Tue, 14 Oct 2014

    Different countries have different safety standards, but most of them revolve around a similar set of tests: front impact, side impact, offset impact, rollover... the usual. But Sweden has its own test. It's called the Moose Test (or the Elk Test), and it's unique to Scandinavia: a car has to be able to avoid a theoretical antlered mammal on the road while traveling at 43.5 miles per hour and return to its previous course without flipping over. The Jeep Grand Cherokee ran afoul of the uniquely Nordic maneuver a couple of years ago, but even more surprising is the way the Porsche Macan has reacted.
    Under testing by Sweden's Teknikens Värld, Porsche's downsized crossover - specifically the Macan S Diesel, for what it's worth - didn't flip over, but it skidded off course. In real-world conditions, it follows, the vehicle could run off the road or into oncoming traffic. The testers ran the test several times, and even removed excess weight from the vehicle, and each time it reacted the same way.
    In response, Porsche has explained that the behavior is the result of its Active Rollover Protection system kicking in. When the system detects that the vehicle could drastically oversteer, flip over or lose its tire, it momentarily applies the brake on the front outside wheel, allowing the vehicle to shed the cornering forces without losing it completely.
