Cobalt Bleu 1982, 928 Porshe Coupe on 2040-cars
Yonkers, New York, United States
I purchased the car in June 2012 from a professional car restorer who had originally bought the car for his wife who never liked the color to begin with and ended up buying another Porsche to restore for his wife in Gold color and put the blue one on Ebay.
The car was shipped to me by a careless driver that ended up cracking the gas tank at delivery, unfortunately for me I did notice the fact one week later as I saw the minor signs of a leak under the gas tank. I emptied the tank and kept it uncap to dry it to have it repaired since the leak was minor and decide to purchase a second used tank in great condition to be on the safe side. My intention was to complete the restoration work and enjoy the car for the East Cost sunny week ends....time went by before and before I had the time to even think about it, winter sets in, the car has been under a double layer of thick tarp to prevent any unnecessary body damages since then. I came to the conclusion that I will not have the time to continue the work done by the previous owner that you can also contact to confirm the following description. The car runs great with all electrical power functioning, the transmission will need to be serviced as well as the engine with new oil has the car has been seating covered on my driveway since June 2012. With car cam a brand new power steering line, new front brake pads, new KN filter, new fuel filter that will need to be installed replacing the old existing one, the actual power steering line has a small leak. I purchased - new hood insulation pad, a used gas tank in great condition in the event that the minor leak cannot be fixed, all new belts ( timing belt-air pump belt-power steering belt- alternator belt-A/C belt) - odometer switch reset - sun roof motor as I was not sure if either the fuse or the relay was not working - sun roof switch - dash board cluster switch knobs - right side mirror as the original was damaged by the careless delivery driver - dash board protective pad - brand new 5 years warranty battery - a second set of german Porsche wheels "phone dial type" with Pirelli P6000 with 7.1x15 for the rear and 6Jx15 for the front in nearly new condition that I will sell separately for $400.00 and not part of this auction The car need a new home with a dedicated person that will finish what the previous owner started, it will not take too much to get this car in a beautiful condition. |

Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
Production Porsche 918 Spyder images leak out of Chinese patent office
Wed, 26 Dec 2012A few images of what looks to be the production Porsche 918 Spyder are here to say hello, courtesy of a patent office in China. If these provide an accurate look at what the hybrid supercar will look like, there are a few differences between it and the latest examples of the pre-production prototypes our spy shooters have seen.
The jerry-rigged turn signals inside the headlight enclosures and on the front fenders on the prototype are replaced with more polished units inside the headlamps located underneath the main beams. Behind that, the door handles have been swapped from horizontal latches on the door to vertical openings located just behind the door shutline.
We've also seen a Martini-liveried version of the 918 Spyder that has extra carbon elements that don't appear on this car. It was at the Nürburgring with carbon lips on the front fenders and another carbon element that hung from the rear fenders and ran down to the rear diffuser. When we saw the car on our Deep Dive piece, the front lips were gone but that rear piece remained, and we can't tell from the brochure and options sheet that we've seen so far what it comes with. The wheels from the concept and the green brake calipers, minus the polycarbonate covers, should be the standard fitment while the ten-spoke magnesium wheels will be a 29,750-euro (about $39,000 US) option.
Well hello, Carice, you Porsche-aping EV cutie
Wed, Jul 9 2014Ah, the joy that comes open-air motoring with the in your hair and the roar of the exhaust behind you. Well, maybe not as much anymore. In recent years, vehicles like the Tesla Roadster have made the concept of the electric sports car palatable. Now, Dutch automaker Carice is following suit with a classically inspired EV speedster called the MK1. The MK1 clearly wears its design inspiration on its sleeve. It would be difficult to look at this styling and not immediately see a Porsche 356 Speedster; It has the same upside-down bathtub shape with big round headlights and likely the tiniest taillights on a production car in years. The Carice is also clearly meant for fair weather motoring because there's no top, just a tonneau cover to protect the interior from the rain while it's sitting. One thing that the Dutch company is definitely getting right is the weight. It claims that the MK1 weighs a dainty 772 pounds, including the battery pack. The low weight doesn't mean the MK1 is going to be lighting quick, though. It's being offered with a choice of three electric motors with 5 horsepower (for 16-year-old drivers in the Netherlands), 20 hp or 53 hp, and there are two sizes of battery pack. Buyers can also opt for a range-extending internal combustion engine. The 53-hp motor allows for a top speed of 62 miles per hour and a 124-mile range with the larger battery. Carice says its also willing to fit larger batteries or more power motors, at the buyer's expense, of course. Carice plans to build an initial production run of 10 cars with prices starting at 22,000 euros, before Dutch taxes (about $30,000). The company hasn't released a press release about the MK1, but you can learn more about speedster on its website; it's in Dutch, though.
