If you are looking for the nicest 1997 Porsche Boxster in the world this is it. Simply stunning color combination. Grand Prix White over Boxster Red FULL leather interior which includes the seats, dash and the insides of the doors. This car is HANDS DOWN the most IMPECCABLE Porsche you will find in the marketplace. This is a REAL NATIONAL CONCOURSE CHAMPION SEVERAL TIMES OVER!!!!! I have been collecting cars for over 25 years and have owned every High end sports, exotic and luxury car there is. I purchased this car only 2 months ago from the Porsche Club of America Regional Technical Chairman and thought I was ready for a new toy. I have only put 15 miles on the car since owning it and can tell you this is the quickest, tightest, best handling, best sounding and GORGEOUS car you will ever find for less than $20,000. Let alone the fact that anyone who walks up to it will mistake it for a new car. Being a father of 3 kids under the age of 5 I am a nervous wreck having it in the garage. I honestly thought that no one in the world was as OCD as I was about cars but trust me the previous owner is. This was his baby for the last 16 years and he was sick to his stomach selling it to me and now I feel even worse having to sell it to someone else. I can go on and on about how nice this car is but I would rather you refer to me feedback. The last sale was my 2007 Lexus LS460 with 18,000 miles on it. Those of you who truly understand what CONCOURSE QUALITY means will know and appreciate this car. I would prefer to sell it to someone who will truly care for it as the previous owner and myself have. The following paragraph below is the ad from the original owner on EBAY just 2 month ago. He is the most knowledgeable Porsche guy I have ever met and trust me I know many. His description is true and accurate and the car in person is nicer than the ad states. Please excuse my photos they are not the best because they are in the garage. You know the old saying "YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED". That truly is an understatement when it comes to this car. Please read the following description carefully. Please feel free to email me via eBay and I will gladly answer your questions. I will also happily text you specific photos if you include your phone number. All I ask is that you don't waste my time. This is NOT a BASE Boxster. This car has been tastefully modified and is way over built. If you think this is a fire sale it is not. If you want to insult me with a low ball offer I will not return your email. My asking price is very fair when you consider the miles, the condition and the added equipment to this car which would cost $ 20,000 without the car. I have been around cars since I was 3 and have sold thousands of cars throughout my career. If you treat me with respect you will get the same in return, it is really that simple. There is simply NOT ANOTHER CAR LIKE this in the world. 1997 Porsche Boxster, 8754 Miles. Perfect in every way. Grand Prix White with Boxster Red Full Leather Interior, Sport Package, TPC Supercharger making 5-6 lbs of boost. Approximately 275 HP at the rear wheels. 5-Speed Manual Transmission, H&R Full Coil-Over Suspension, B&B Polished Stainless Exhaust, 18" Porsche Sport Classic II Wheels with Michelins, Drilled Rotors, Pagid Orange Pads, Stainless Steel Brake Lines, Custom Built Rear Chassis Brace, Porsche Short Shifter with new style Porsche Shift Lever, Boost and AF Ratio Gauges.

This car was built for show only. Never beaten in any Porsche car show it was ever entered in. Fully detailed undercarriage, engine/transmission and suspension. Never driven in rain, never tracked and never damaged in any way. The car is simply stunning. Even the holes in the drilled rotors were painted black inside. All modifications work perfectly together and is fully emission compliant.

Simply put, this is THE nicest first year Boxster in the world...period.

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.

Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.
