Spring is here! Time to drive a convertible????

1998 Red Porsche Boxster convertible

This was the track car from the Porsche Club of America Regional President. - He used it as an every day driver and track day car. With the suspension set up, the car is a blast to drive.

Overall I'd say it's a solid 8. It does have small stone chips on the front hood - easy to fix or fine as is... The interior is decent with a small tear on the drivers seat seam. (reparable I suspect)

It originally had a 2.5 engine that was recently replaced with a solid 2.7 engine so while the chassis has about 208K miles the engine and gearbox have less than 50K miles and even more HP.

If you look at this car I suspect you will buy it - really nice with great updates... Happy to allow any bidder to inspect/drive prior to bidding on this car.

The car is easily worth over 12K especially with the suspension upgrades and the "extra" parts old but good gearbox and engine are worth a fair amount as well.

Chassis has some nice options
- Upgraded suspension called Porsche ROW M030 stiffens car about 30% and lowers it about 0.5 inches
- New front rotors and comes with a set of new in box rear rotors and a bunch of extra brake pads
- Car has built in windbreak/screen
- Top was replaced a few years ago - decent shape auto up and down works great
- Car has a fully functional spare and tool kit
- I have receipts and paperwork
- Power steering lines were replaced within the last 6 months
- Stainless steel brake lines all four corners
- AC needs to be recharged - new line added during engine install.
- Replaced all the dash lights over the summer, so you will probably never have to replace it
- All the O2 and temp sensors are less than 2 years old

To the scam artists - don't bother - I will not accept a pay and ship scam or any other one you can create. If you are interested in the car the sale is cash and as-is. I have a clear VA title in hand.

THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND IF SOLD THIS AD AND ANY BIDS WILL BE CANCELLED - If you want it prior to auction end use best offer and make a deal.

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

The 2013 Rolex 24-hour race at Daytona comes down to the last hour [spoilers, w/video]

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

It took 24 hours to run the race, but it was the last one was stuffed with the high action as four cars were still trying to figure out how to gain victory on the track and in the pits. Along with the obligatory crashes, spins, mechanical issues and retirements had come numerous penalties, a double-digit number of full-course yellows and two hours of fog that turned early Sunday morning into a stretch of parade laps.
The final hour would make up for the morning - drivers who might have been happy just to get on the podium had a shot at victory as the end of the race approached, and that turned into a few gambles that paid off, and at least one that didn't...

Are you the Porsche Pajun?

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

The prospect of Porsche building a smaller version of the Panamera has been an on-again, off-again proposition as the German automaker seems to go back and forth on the project. Last we heard, Porsche had pushed back the so-called Pajun (shorthand for Panamera Junior) until 2019 at the earliest, but we could be looking at it right here.
The automaker's everything-but-automotive division Porsche Design is working on a luxury condo complex called (simply enough) Porsche Design Tower. It's been three years in the making and will take at least another year or two to complete, but the gist of it is that the 57-floor building will include 132 apartments, each with its own en-suite garage in which the residents' cars will be parked thanks to giant elevators.
Porsche Design released a series of renderings showing what the property will look like once complete. Most of the renderings feature Porsches, of course - production models you can find in any of the brand's showrooms, like the one just 23 miles away in Coral Gables. But one of the renderings of the giant glass elevators shows something rather unusual.
