This has to be the best and most original unmolested Porsche 968 cabriolet in existence today. It’s a one careful owner gem.

It has only 14,560 miles showing. These vehicle were hand-built and this car has been kept in a climate controlled atmosphere all of its life, only being sparingly used on weekends and holidays by its Commercial Pilot Owner. This is the perfect classic Porsche for the discriminating collector who desires the best in the country.

With a perfect weight distribution (50/50), six speed manual transmission, large bore 3.0 liter engine, this 968 cabriolet is marvelous to drive, and of course it has the legendary Porsche reliability.

Having never seen inclement weather this beautiful red over black leather roadster looks brand new. You'll be hard pressed to find any physical signs of wear as there has never been a scratch or dent requiring paint work over its 20 year life. The paintwork just received the attention of our detail shop and $700 later (Yes I know, but they are the best) it looks like it should be in a new car showroom.

The interior shows no wear. The A/C blows powerfully cold. There are no chips or scratches in the glass. The rear window plastic and stitching look perfect and it gleams with no imperfections to the finish. The doors, hood and trunk lid align perfectly and close with the Porsche "thunk". The rims have no scratches and the Tires are 500 miles old. The head light glass, turn signal covers, rear tail light covers and tiny bumperettes (front and rear) are perfect. Every electrical and mechanical component works as it did when it rolled out of the Porsche factory at Zuffenhausen, Germany in 1992.

Hennessey Porsche of Atlanta just serviced the Cambelt and secondary Belt, (The second change it has had) so there is nothing to worry about mechanically. All fluids, Brake, Coolant, Oil etc have been changed last week.

It even comes with the factory supplied gloves in the engine bay compartment.

Included are 3 keys, original books, tools, air pump and extensive service receipt history. The vehicle obviously has a clean Carfax report and a copy of that will accompany the car.

In the 10 years we have been searching for an unmolested 968 convertible, this is the finest example we have ever seen. If you are a classic Porsche enthusiast looking for that special vehicle whose condition is considered "right out of the wrapper", this is your vehicle.

Only 2300 of these special 968 cabriolets were imported into the US from 1992-5. With most of them well used and with high miles, here is your opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Porsche treasure.

Personally I would treat it to a set of modern wheels and an MP3 payer, it has not been upgraded to preserve its originality.

Magnus Walker pops up again, this time with his Irish Green 911

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

He was the subject of a short film called Urban Outlaw. He has been on Jay Leno's Garage. Twice. He even graced the cover of Road & Track in June. And after all of that, he appeared in a video by Hong Kong-based Silly Thing. So it isn't really surprising that Magnus Walker is at the center of attention in the latest video from XCAR, but it's surprising - and a treat - to see his mostly original Irish Green 1966 Porsche 911.
Powered by an air-cooled 2.0-liter flat six with 130 horsepower (more like 120 hp today, Walker says), riding on 5.5-inch wide wheels and turned with a wooden steering wheel, the little green 911 does represent some of the best aspects of classic car motoring.
Head on below to watch the long-form video on Walker and his Porsche, but if your time is limited, you're not missing much if you call it quits at five minutes - especially if you've seen his aforementioned videos before.

Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.

Volkswagen profit jumps as it warns of a cooling auto market

Wed, Oct 30 2019

FRANKFURT, Germany — Volkswagen says its profits jumped 44% in the third quarter thanks to a more profitable mix of vehicles in its lineup but warned that global car markets are slowing more than expected and lowered its forecast for annual sales. After-tax profit rose to $4.42 billion (3.98 billion euros) as revenues rose 11% to $68.27 billion (61.42 billion euros). The sales margin of 7.8% exceeded the goal of 6.5-7.5% as vehicles bringing higher profits took a larger share of sales. The Wolfsburg-based automaker pointed to the headwinds facing the industry by saying that it expects "vehicle markets will contract faster than previously anticipated in many regions of the world." It said sales would be "on a level" with last year's record of 10.8 million vehicles. Previously it had expected a slight increase. The company said its profits would be in the lower end of its forecast range. Global automakers are facing a slowdown in sales amid disputes over trade and from pressure in the European Union and China to develop and sell low-emission vehicles that require heavy investment in new technology. Ford and Renault have issued profit warnings in recent days, while Daimler, maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars, lost money in the second quarter and is expected to outline a cost-cutting strategy for investors on Nov. 14. Volkswagen is leading the push into electric vehicles in Europe by launching its ID.3 battery-powered compact car at prices it says will make zero local emission vehicles a mass phenomenon. The company was able to increase earnings in the quarter despite an 18% rise in spending on research and development.
