Here you have a 1987 944S with all the Porsche luxuries that was bought by a perfectionist.  Like most purchases it looked ok, but after purchase came the surprises.  My friend is a novice to the Porsche crowd and this was his first one.  He bought it , it seemed OK but then little things were wrong, so he set out to make it mechanically perfect.  At 79600 miles put in new gas struts, new turn signal switch other misc.  Bill came to $2,023.53.  Next a little more driving , then more stuff not quite perfect so needed to be fixed.  New AC compressor, new AC expansion valve, new windshield reservoir and pump and new Dynomax VT muffler, total $1,886.96.  Few more miles then New drive belts, Timing belt, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor , valve cover gasket balance shaft seal and clutch to the tune of $3,777.44.  Mechanically it needs nothing.  I am including the number for Mitch at the repair shop a 944 expert and he can tell you they went through the car top to bottom, NO mechanical issues that they have not already been repaired.  The paint is good, normal use, stone chips, the leather on both seats are cracked, BUT NO ISSUES WITH THE RUNNING OF THE CAR.  Don't be fooled by other inexpensive 944 that look OK, THE BILLS ADD UP FAST.  To give you an idea when he bought the car , sounded and ran ok , but in less than a year put $7687.93 plus the cost of a new set of tires.  Many say their car needs nothing, BUT look at the bills this car is mechanically sound.  Questions call Mitch at Hi Line auto he can answer any questions or set up a test drive.  (630) 663-0044. My friend has now become a Porsche freak and after getting this car mechanically just right is now moving on and bought an even faster Porsche... so the cycle begins again.  please email with any questions or if you would like additional pictures. I have the car for sale locally so have the right to end the auction at any time.  Come out schedule a test drive see for yourself this is a tight Porsche!

After that, they get into some news, talking about the new Lotus Emira and Genesis G80 Sport.

VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
