Here it is, I have decided to let go of my childhood dream car. I love to keep it, but I don't drive it and it just sits. I put about 200 to 500 miles on it a year. I just have to many toys and just don't have time to enjoy it all so I decided I might as well sell the car so someone else can appreciate it and enjoy it. It is a blast to drive as the turbo is quick to response to the gas pedal. as for mechanicals, the timing belt, water pump, and all the rollers was done at around 137000 miles. by me. It was done right by me as I don't trust any mechanic to do it from personal experience. Brakes are all good, all lights work properly. Heat works great, it does have A/C but it does not blow cold air. It needs a new a/c compressor and needs recharging.
The interior is in decent condition. The front seats was redone recently, the center console needs to be replaced as it is dried and cracking from sitting in the sun, the dash is cracking (very typical) of these cars. The sunroof needs a new motor/ mechanism. The exterior has a few paint chips, a few tiny dents and dings. The only major body work that is needed is the right rear fender, it has bondo work done but not a great work but not horrible either. I had it estimated at Maaco for about $300.00 to get that rear fender redone properly. This is a very original car and I am the second owner. I don't like to modify car as it takes away from the originality and values. I mean the car was already well engineered so there was no need to make any changes. Just enjoy it as it is. before I forgot, carfax shows that there was an accident report. the accident was a very minor accident. No damage to the car, the only thing that needed to get replaced was the left rear bumper shock. Like I said, I just don't have the time to enjoy and appreciate the car enough so it is time to set it free and let it go to someone who will enjoy and appreciate it the way it should be. I might have forgotten something, but just give me a call at 301-908-2296 if you have any specific questions. By the way, I can replace the a/c compressor for the winner if he/ she so choose for the cost of the parts added to the winning bid price. My name is Vennak.

Kia leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2022
Thu, Feb 10 2022For the first year ever, Kia leads J.D. Power's annual Vehicle Dependability Study with a score of 145 problems per 100 vehicles. Buick (147) and Hyundai (148) round out the top three. The highest premium brand on the list is Genesis, with a score of 148. It's common for so-called "mass market" brands to lead this particular study, according to J.D. Power, as "premium" brands "typically incorporate more technology in their vehicles, which increases the likelihood for problems to occur" and aren't necessarily built to a higher standard that less-expensive brands. The highest-rated single nameplate is the Porsche 911. It's the third time out of the past four years and the second year in a row that Porsche's quintessential sports car has taken top honors. Porsche as a brand sits in seventh place (162) just behind Lexus (159) and ahead of Dodge (166). At the very bottom of the list is Land Rover with a dismal score of 284; the SUV specialist held the same unfortunate distinction on last year's list. Ram (266), Volvo (256), Alfa Romeo (245) and Acura (244) also performed poorly. The overall industry average score sits at 192 — mass market brands average a score of 190 while premium brands sit 14 points lower at 204. While Tesla is unofficially included in some of J.D. Power's results, the agency says the sample size it has access to for this study is too small to include. As has been the case for the past several years, infotainment systems dominate the list of problems reported by owners. Popular (or unpopular, depending on your point of view) complaints include built-in voice recognition (8.3 PP100), Android Auto/Apple CarPlay connectivity (5.4 PP100), built-in Bluetooth system (4.5 PP100), not enough power plugs/USB ports (4.2 PP100), navigation systems difficult to understand/use (3.7 PP100), touchscreen/display screen (3.6 PP100), and navigation system inaccurate/outdated map (3.6 PP100). While problems with the car's infotainment and technology packages are indeed bothersome, it's important to remember that such issues aren't usually leaving owners stranded with an immovable vehicle like a broken transmission or blown engine would. Culling infotainment complaints from the results would reduce the average problem-per-100-vehicle score by a staggering 51.9 points. The vehicles included in this study are from the 2019 model year. That means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's the 33rd year that J.D.
Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting
Sat, 11 Oct 2014
"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.
2012 TechArt Porsche 911 is visually dazzling, both inside and out
Wed, 07 Mar 2012One way to ensure that your brand-new Porsche 911 (a.k.a. 991) won't look like the one in your neighbor's driveway is to give TechArt a call. The famed German tuner has rolled out its version of the latest Carrera and Carrera S at the Geneva Motor Show and trust us, it won't be mistaken for anything from the factory in Stuttgart.
Up front, TechArt has fitted its own unique two-part spoiler with integrated splitter while more aggressive side skirts adorn the rocker panels. The rear has a new lower diffuser, wrapped around the TechArt exhaust, and a large fixed rear wing (complete with an integrated third brake light). Look more closely to notice the subtle trim panels on the exterior mirrors and front headlights. The wheels are lightweight forged 20- and 21-inch alloys with matching paint on their rims.
Inside the heavily modified cabin are even more drastic enhancements (let's say TechArt has gone over the top). Don't let the aluminum pedals be a distraction as you inspect the black Alcantara and high-grade leather covering nearly every square inch. Flirting with gaudy, the dark upholstery is contrasted by vehicle-color-coordinated stitching and painted trim splashed throughout. However, the icing on the cake is an insanely thick TechArt three-spoke sports steering wheel.
