We have for sale a 2000 Porsche Boxster with 111,500mi.  I will try to describe the vehicle as accurately as possible.

We are a small auto repair and sales facility.  This is a vehicle we purchased at auction as a flood damaged vehicle which did not run.  The vehicle was from the Chicago area.  We quickly found the anti theft computer, located under the driver's seat, had gotten wet and shorted out.  We replaced the computer, had the computers re-flashed, and it was now a running car.  Front wheel bearings were replaced and the vehicle was drive-able.  We subsequently replaced the coolant overflow tank (it was leaking) and the left front radiator for the same reason. All three ignition coils on bank 1 were replaced as well as direct fit upstream and downstream oxygen sensors.  I've put approximately 150 miles on the car and it is lot of fun to drive.  IT'S A PORSCHE!!!

The car runs very nice.  The Tiptronic transmission works properly and shifts well.  The suspension is in overall good condition.  The tires are new in the rear and like new in the front.  The brakes work well and feel solid with no warping in the front.  The electronics all work: electric windows, convertible top, A/C, heated seats, radio.  The top is in EXCELLENT condition.  It appears it was replaced in February of 2013, based upon receipts found in the vehicle.  Overall, it's a nice car with a lot more potential.  It looks good, handles well, it's fun to drive, and...well...IT'S A PORSCHE!!!!!!

OK, now the bad.  This car does have an IL title branded flood.  As I said, I don't know why other than the computer was shorted out.  Driven through a puddle???  The seats are in fair condition.  The leather on the seat pad on the driver's seat is perforated leather and there is cracking and tearing.  See pics.  The odometer works but the backlight is out. The radio has some dead LCD crystals on the left side of the radio display.  The quarter panel near the left side air intake is dented and has had some repair in the past.  I tried to show as much in pics.  The driver's door mirror housing is loose. I will see if I can repair that before auction end.  It works fine, just rattles a bit.  While the top looks and works very well, it seems like it rattles a little more than it should.  I don't know if there are adjustments or not. The right front side marker reflector is broken.  The car could use a professional detail (we clean each car to the best we can...we are not a detail shop).

All that being said, this car is being sold with NO RESERVE!  It is being sold AS IS.  We will help with shipping or assistance in any way we can.  We are located 3 miles from the Milwaukee airport and would gladly pick you up if needed.  Deposit of $500 through PayPal with the balance due in cash or certified funds.  Please feel free to call us at 414-747-9920 with any questions.  Thank you.

I have to mention the vehicle is for sale locally and will end the auction early if sold locally.

Gemballa reveals new Porsche 991-based GT convertible

Sun, 16 Sep 2012

Gemballa went through the ringer last year, but rebounded with products that signal a complete turnaround. The latest is the recently-released Porsche 911 Carrera S with a Gemballa GT aerodynamics and technology package. Aero-wise, it includes carbon fiber additions beginning with a front bumper wearing the classic Gemballa air intake design and a lower, angrier splitter. New side skirts run from wheel to wheel, the final piece being a rear bumper in three sculpted horizontal sections featuring a rear diffuser tucked between six rectangular exhaust tips.
No engine mods have been made, but the technology part of the tune - springs that are 30 millimeters shorter yet still able to work with the PASM system - is claimed to make the car faster. Bringing things to a halt is a new Brembo brake system hiding behind 21-inch GForged wheels that are lighter than Porsche's standard 20-inchers.
The Gemballa GT aero kit runs €19,860 ($26,070 U.S.), which includes paint and installation if you happen to be in Germany, and we're assuming that includes the suspension modification, brakes and sport exhaust. The GForged wheels are another €9,895 ($12,989 U.S.) depending on your choice of tire. Check out the press release below for more info, and the photo gallery above for all the angles.

Porsche announces Cayman GT4 with 911 GT3 components

Wed, Feb 4 2015

For years, there's been a debate among Porsche fans about which of its products is a better sports car, the 911 or the Cayman. It would only take a few sentences before those in the Cayman corner said that Porsche wouldn't make the Cayman as good as it could be for fear of overshadowing The Number One Son. We have a feeling these conversations are going to get a lot livelier with the introduction of the Cayman GT4, which pilfers lightly from the 911 Carrera S and heavily from the 911 GT3. On the outside, you can look to its front fascia, wheels, and fixed rear wing, and 30-millimmeter lower ride height for GT3 inspirations. Underneath, there's a 385-horsepower, 3.8-liter flat-six engine amidships, credited as being derived from the Carrera S. While there are those out there still lamenting the fact that the GT3 can only be had with a dual-clutch transmission, the Cayman GT4 "transmits its power solely through a six-speed manual transmission with dynamic gearbox mounts." Yeah. So take that. The extra power reduces the Cayman GT4's 0-to-60 mile per hour sprint to 4.2 seconds, a half second quicker than the 340-hp Cayman GTS, and bumps top speed up to 183 mph. An interesting nugget: Porsche says the Cayman GT4 runs the Nurburgring in seven minutes and 40 seconds, which it credits as the same time run by the 2011 911 GT3. Porsche has never offered a precise time for the current 911 GT3, saying only that it's "under 7:30," and Internet rumor (grab your salt lick) is that the not-yet-introduced GT3 RS has done a 7:20. We don't have all of its details yet – those will come closer to its introduction at the Geneva Motor Show next month – but we're told of a lot more 911 GT3 parts underneath, like the chassis that "consists almost entirely of components from the 911 GT3" and that all of its "technical aspects are based on the 911 GT3." If you want to take it further, the options sheet will include ceramic brakes and carbon fiber bucket seats. This new top-shelf Cayman gets to dealerships in the US in July with a starting price of $84,600 before a $995 destination charge. You'll find a few more bits of info in the press release below. A New Member of Porsche's GT Family The benchmark in its class: the Porsche Cayman GT4 Atlanta, Feb. 3, 2015 - Porsche's GT family is proud to announce the addition of an exciting new member: the Cayman GT4. This is the first Porsche GT sports car based on the Cayman and features components of the 911 GT3.

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...
