I bought this car from a Porsche Club of America member (30 Years!) in 2010 with 77,430k Miles and it now, almost 4 years later only has 79k miles! I drove it LESS than 2,000 miles since 2010. As you can see, the car is exceptionally clean. The front bumper was repainted by Porsche (for $1700) to make them look brand new because there were small stone chips from the highway. That is the only paintwork that has ever been done on the car, guaranteed. I have the original window sticker, two remote keys, and all of the books. The current mileage is 79k+. It had new front rotors and pads put in at 55K miles. I recently put $3500 into replacing the control system for the convertible top, and the waterproofing system for it in January 2012 at Porsche of Sarasota because it leaked after going through a car wash. I also put $2100 into replacing the OEM CD Player & Stereo System in March 2012 at The Collection Porsche in Miami because the LCD screen wouldn't work. I also replaced the rear bumper in January 2012 at Porsche of Sarasota because someone scratched it in a parking lot. I obviously have spent far more on this car than I got out of the 2,000 miles I drove. Someone is getting a ridiculous deal out of this sale! OEM upgrades: Upgraded Bose sound system OEM Porsche windstop OEM Porsche lockable car cover OEM Upgraded Porsche floor mats OEM Upgraded automatic climate control OEM Upgraded Boxster S Wheels OEM Upgraded Porsche Painted Center Caps The car currently has $4000 wheels & tires on it. I also have the original OEM (Upgraded) Boxster "S" 18 inch wheels with the upgraded painted center caps, including 100% BRAND NEW Hankook tires pre-mounted on them. These wheels & tires are an additional $1800.00. The tires alone were $1156 You're getting an extra complete set of wheels and tires for FREE plus the $4000 19" aluminum wheels and tires with this sale...simply pay for the car and you get all of it. There is a small scratch on the driver's door and there is also a very small ding on the driver's door behind the door handle. One of the dashboard climate controls has the black color rubbing off, which happens with all Porsches built in the mid-2000's (All 3 that I've owned had this issue). I am not aware of any other defects. The ding and scratch are clearly shown in the last 2 photos. I am in Miami Beach, and the buyer will need to pick the car up here. If you pick the car up using a transport service, they will obviously have to also pick up the extra set of wheels and tires somehow for you, as I can't help you ship them. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS DEAL, I JUST PUT $7000 INTO THIS CAR IN THE PAST YEAR, BUT MY LOSS WILL BE YOUR GAIN. SADLY, I NEED AN SUV AND THIS VEHICLE ISN'T PRACTICAL FOR MY USE. CARFAX REPORT: |

Best Convertibles for 2022
Thu, Jun 30 2022The past decade has not been kind to the drop-top enthusiast. No matter which dealer you walk into, convertible models have been biting the dust left and right. Nissan Z? Audi TT? Buick Cascada? Volkswagen Eos? All gone. Remember the humble Chrysler Sebring/200? Well, you do now. Fortunately, though, the news isn't all bad. There are still plenty of options out there for those who absolutely must have a convertible. Whether you need something to haul behind your retirement cruiser, a performance car that can go toe-to-toe with the best in the world or just something that allows you to sling the roof back after a long day of on-location business meetings before catching the flight back to your everyday hustle and bustle, there's at least one cabriolet out there to suit your needs. Here are our picks and starting prices for the top convertibles in several categories for 2022. For the frugal open-top lover: 2022 Mini Convertible ($34,650) Let's face it; gas ain't cheap. But open-top motoring doesn't need to be a wallet killer. The Mini is cheap (at least by 2022 standards) and an absolute joy to drive, so there's really no downside here ... except for the roof. Get it?  For the hardtop lover: 2022 Mazda MX-5 RF ($37,260) / 2022 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible ($69,695) The number of hardtop convertibles has seriously dwindled due to weight concerns and the fact that fabric roofs have gotten so quiet, but there are still some options for those who prefer a more coupe-like look with the roof up. Our picks here are the delightfully Targa-like MX-5 Miata RF and literally any Corvette Stingray — even the hardtop has a removable roof!  For long road trips: 2022 Ford Mustang Convertible ($34,100) The first image that comes to mind for many who are told to visualize an American convertible is the classic Ford Mustang. It's not the only drop-top pony car out there, but thanks to the Camaro's tiny trunk, it's much harder to see the USA in a Chevrolet when a drop-top enters the equation. The Mustang has much more cargo space and a much larger opening, which is likely the difference between keeping your bags under lock and key or leaving them exposed in the back seat.  For towing behind an RV: 2022 Jeep Wrangler ($31,590) While many small runabouts make sense for towing behind a motor home (or nestled up inside a fancier one), the Wrangler has a serious advantage when it comes to RVing: it can easily be flat-towed.
eGarage video features Helmuth Bott's personal Porsche 959 prototype
Fri, 12 Apr 2013"We thought we were going to build a super-911," said Peter Schutz, former CEO of Porsche AG of the development of the Porsche 959. That was before it started getting expensive. At that point, Helmuth Bott, Porsche R&D director got frightened. Costs ballooned because of the all-wheel drive, sequential turbocharging and other technology Porsche had never even thought about when it set out to build a 911 to compete in Group B. Schutz continued, "The amount of resources we were committing got totally out of hand." Instead of pulling the plug, Bott doubled down and drew on the strength of his brilliant team to build a car whose impact is still echoing aross the industry.
"It's probably one of our most prized possessions" says Don Leatherwood, Director of the Brumos collection where Dr. Bott's personal prototype resides, and where Frazer Spowart went to see the car and create a video for eGarage. Check out the sights and sounds of the 959 before it was the 959, and get personal takes on the car from Hurley Haywood, Peter Schutz and Don Leatherwood. Keep reading to see the video.
2015 Porsche Cayman GTS
Thu, 29 May 2014The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.
