2006 Porsche Cayman S on 2040-cars
Crowell, Texas, United States
Feel free to email: zoniazbbonfiglio@clubhonda.net .
Let me start out by saying that this is an amazing ride. To my knowledge, it has never been on a track and I feel
confident based on what my mechanic has told me that most if not all the miles are adult driven. This car has been
babied. I didn't do any of the modifications outside of the new rims and tires. Nearly everything I know is due to
research on the original owner and from the professional appraisal I had done for insurance purposes. Including the
purchase price of the car over $160,000 has been invested in this beauty. I can't go anywhere without people taking
pictures and asking me about it. This is a heavily modified 2006 Porsche Cayman Techart GTS (Originally a stock
Cayman S) with LOTS of upgrades both for looks and performance. This car has been used as a model for advertising
some of the custom parts listed below. This car has been professionally appraised and insured for nearly $60,000
(See attached picture...I can provide more appraisal pics if needed). I am going to to my best to list all of the
features of this car and anything else I feel a potential buyer should know. I copied and pasted all of the typical
Cayman S options at the bottom and changed what fit my car but I'm going to manually list all of the nontypical
upgrades here:
Here are the performance upgrades.
1. X51 3.8L Cold Air Intake Upgrade-See Pics ($4000)
2. TPC X51 Clutch/Lightweight Flywheel ($2800)
3. Softronic Tune (Depends on shop but costly)
4. Underdrive Lightweight Pulley ($200)
5. Lowered and upgraded suspension using Techart lowering springs (I don't believe it has coilovers) (3 inches of
clearance at the lowest $3500) The suspension is very stiff and the car handles like a go kart.
6. ARP Stainless Steel Exhaust with supporting software and "Sound box" muffler tip added for aggressive sound (see
video above)
Here are the appearance upgrades that I can think to put:
1. Techart Front Bumper Cover ($4,500)
2. Techart Hood Badge ($330)
3. Techart Mirror Caps (Carbon Fiber) ($400)
4. Techart Ultrabright multifunction LED running lights ($1500)
5. Techart GTS Rear Spoiler with Carbon Fiber ($3500)
6. GT3 Grill ($50)
7. Porsche Seatbelt Covers ($10)
8. Kenwood DNX6140 Touchscreen Navigation/Bluetooth/DVD Player and Back Up Camera with remote (Originally
$749...not sure now)
9. Brand New 20" Victor Zehn Staggered Wheels ($1300)
10. 245/30ZR20 low profile Michelin Super Sport Tires with lots of tread life left (Over 90-95%-$1000)
11. Custom Painted Roof ($500)
12. Custom Clear and Acrylic Engine Cover ($650)
13. 2009+ rear bumper with LED Tail Lights ($1000+)
14. LED Pilot Sidemarkers ($100)
15. LED Engine Lighting ($50)
16. Porsche Red Brake Calipers ($2200)
17. Brand New Prismatic Headliner (Just installed 06/29) ($300)
18. HID conversion foglight kit ICE HID bulb kit ($200)
19. Xtec license plate LEDs ($20)

2015 24 Hours of Le Mans live race report
Sat, Jun 13 2015Check back regularly for more race updates every few hours. No, you don't need to stay up for the entire 24 Hours of Le Mans, but if you want to catch any of the action, Autoblog friend Reilly Brennan has a handy guide. And to keep you up to speed on the latest race events, we'll be posting live from Le Mans with regular race reports.Hour 1: Five laps in, Audi breaks up the three Porsches at the front, with the #19 919 Hybrid, driven by Nico Hulkenburg, passed by all three R18s. Hulkenburg eventually took back fifth position only to fall back again after the first pit stop. Meanwhile, clutch trouble kept the #23 Nissan GTR-LM in the pits until 15 minutes into the race. The other two Nissans were forced to start at the back of the grid after failing to the meet the 110 percent qualifying speed regulation. At the end of the first hour, just 7.5 seconds separated the first six cars. Then the factory team #92 Porsche GTE car caught fire, with the the #13 Rebellion P1 car taking frontal damage in the ensuing carnage. With the safety car out, the field is once again bunched up.Hour 2: The slugfest between Audi and Porsche continues, with neither side backing off. Halfway through the second hour the #7 R18 passes both leading Porsches for the top position. After another round of pits stops Porsche regains the lead until lap 30, when the Audi overtake once again and quickly pulls out a three-second gap. Nico Hulkenburg passes the other two Audis to join his Porsche teammates. At the beginning of the third hour it's Audi #7, Porsche #17, #18, and #19, followed by Audi #8 and #9. 33 seconds separates this group, with Toyota a minute back from the front car.Hour 3: On track the action refuses to stop. Although it's early, Audi is looking strong with the overall lead in the #7. What's more is that the Audis run four stints per set of tires, while the Porsche cars have to change rubber every third stop. But after a quick refueling, the lead R18 gets a tire puncture and comes back in 3 laps later, allowing Porsche to take over the top two spots. Then as the hour closes out a yellow flag causes traffic to bunch up and the #8 Audi gets stuck with nowhere to slow down. Driver Loic Duval dives for the side of the road but hits the guard rail and careens across the track, damaging the front and rear bodywork. The rest of the car is still intact, though, and once in the pits Audi replaces the entire front and rear of that in only three minutes.
Porsche tops J.D. Power quality index as Korean brands soar
Thu, Jun 18 2015While complaints about infotainment systems remain a thorn in the side of automakers for J.D. Power's annual Initial Quality Study, there's a lot to celebrate this year. The average number of problems reported per 100 vehicles fell to 112 in 2015 – a three-percent improvement compared to 116 in 2014. The results of this year's survey are based on the responses of over 84,000 people about problems within the first 90 days of buying or leasing a 2015 model-year vehicle. For the third consecutive year, Porsche tops the rankings with an average of 80 problems per 100 vehicles. Although, that's slightly more than the 74 the German sportscar maker scored in 2014. "While the Japanese automakers continue to make improvements, we're seeing other brands, most notably Korean makes, really accelerating the rate of improvement," Renee Stephens, vice president of US automotive quality at J.D. Power, said in the study's release. In fact, Kia ranks as one of the biggest movers in this year's list. The Korean brand jumped to second place from seventh last year. The company had an average of 86 problems per 100 vehicles, a 20-point improvement. Third place went to Jaguar with an average of 93 problems reported, versus last year's second-place finish with 87 of them. Fourth place was Hyundai, and fifth-place Infiniti also earned a gold star for improvement with 97 issues per 100 vehicles – 31-points better than last year. Fiat still anchored the bottom of the list. However, its 161 problems this year is a lot better than the 206 in 2014. Ranked by nationality, Korean brands (Hyundai and Kia) are now leading the industry in initial quality with an average of 90 problems reported per 100 vehicles. According to J.D. Power, this is the first time Europe's figure beat Japan with 113 and 114 issues, respectively. The American brands also averaged 114. Whereas General Motors dominated last year, the segment awards are spread out in 2015. GM, Hyundai, Nissan, and Volkswagen Group are all tied with four models each earning prizes.

Porsche exec confirms Macan Diesel for US
Wed, 15 Oct 2014The idea of a diesel-powered Porsche is the sort of thing that sounds really, really weird... until you actually drive it. The result of sticking glow plugs under the hood of Stuttgart's finest, though, is a vehicle that's nearly as entertaining as a gas-powered model but with much more torque and better fuel economy. Considering that, we think it's absolutely splendid news that following previous reports, Porsche has now confirmed a diesel-powered Macan for the US market.
"We are now busy with the development and the engineering," Andre Oosthuizen, Porsche's North American marketing VP, told Automotive News. "I can confirm that V6 diesel offering with about 245 horsepower."
Yep, that's the same 3.0-liter V6 found, most notably, in the CUV's Audi Q5 platform-mate as well as a plethora of other Volkswagen Group vehicles, both in the US and abroad. Stuttgart already offers the 3.0-liter oil-burner in the Euro-spec crossover, where it churns out 258 hp and 427 pound-feet of torque.
