2006 Porsche Cayman S Techart Gt / X-51 Performance Upgrade Package on 2040-cars
Saint Clair Shores, Michigan, United States
Testing the waters to sell my one-off 2006 Cayman S with complete Techart GTS exterior package. Car has 50,000 miles and runs and drives perfect. Just inspected at dealer and came back with a clean bill of health. They were also very impressed with the extensive performance modifications.
The original owner wanted a Techart GT car directly from Techart, but when he found out the waiting period he decided to build his own, sparing no expense. Believe it or not, including the purchase price of the car new, the original owner spent just under $160,000 (I would've never!). Unfortunately he lost it to a mechanics lien (so I was told)and I traded one of my 911s for it. The car has since only been driven about 500 miles in the last year. I currently own and have owned in the past year multiple Porsche 911s, tastefully modded Mercedes AMGs, BMWs and two Maseratis and I have never gotten more questions, pictures taken, or people drooling at gas stations! Every time I look at it myself I say "Damn! That's a badass Porsche!" Truly a turn key one of a kind Porsche that I feel any Porsche enthusiast would compliment. Doing a little more research on the internet, I have found the original owner here on Planet 9. There is quite a bit of information and pics on his profile. Please search username Porsches4ed. Come to find out this evening this was the first and still may be the only 3.8 x-51 upgrade package installed on a 3.4 including one off software and support from a company called Softronic. Here is a list of modifications: Exterior: Techart front bumper cover $4500+ Techart Ultrabright multifunction LED daytime running lights $1400 Techart badge on hood $330 LOL Techart carbon fiber side mirror caps Techart rear spoiler with carbon fiber $5000 2009+ rear bumper with LED taillights Victor Equipment Florio 3 piece 20" wheels GT3 grill Performance: Porsche X-51 ultimate performance package, which is an extensive factory upgrade lightweight pulley kit cold air intake system ARP full stainless steel exhaust with supporting software installed suspension ? Not sure which coil overs are installed. Will know tomorrow Interior: custom clear acrylic engine cover custom Kenwood touchscreen DVD backup camera amp and sub which sound surprisingly awesome utilizing the factory Bose speakers I am not looking to get rich. I just don't have the room to store a 2 seater having a family when I have many other exotic and/or fun vehicles. Whoever buys this car is going to get a truly amazing car for an even more amazing deal! Car is also for sale locally. I reserve the right to end auction early. More photos will be posted tomorrow. Please call anytime with any questions you may have. Jerry 586-822-5543 |

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 Cup step out early
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Though Porsche won't be feeding us the full 911 enchilada until tomorrow's Geneva-based festivities, we have managed to scare up some official images of the 2014 911 GT3, as well as the all-new 911 GT3 Cup. As Porsche is celebrating 50 years of the 911, we anticipate a good day for great cars.
The new GT3 looks every bit the proper successor to the racy 911 nameplate, with a fixed rear wing large enough to serve cocktails on, a curvaceous body kit and 20-inch wheels that offer a dominating on-road stance. It's a good bet that Porsche will have coaxed something like 450 horsepower from the naturally aspirated, 3.8-liter flat-six engine that hangs over the car's rear axle. A seven-speed manual and Porsche's own PDK transmission are the likely gearbox offerings.
Should the mental quickness and imposing wingery of the standard GT3 not be enough for you, future racecar driver, Porsche is also bringing a GT3 Cup car to Geneva. The German automaker has given just a few scant details about this Cup car - 460 hp on tap, a production run of just 2,400 units - including three images of the kitted out racer. Certainly more and finer details will emerge, when Porsche shines the spotlights on its new 911s tomorrow.
Audi CEO's Dieselgate arrest threatens fragile truce among VW stakeholders
Tue, Jun 19 2018FRANKFURT — The arrest and detention of Audi's chief executive forces Volkswagen Group's competing stakeholders to renegotiate the delicate balance of power that has helped keep Audi CEO Rupert Stadler in office. Volkswagen's directors are discussing how to run Audi, its most profitable division, following the arrest of the brand's long-time boss on Monday as part of Germany's investigations into the carmaker's emissions cheating scandal. The supervisory board of Audi, meanwhile, has suspended Stadler and appointed Dutchman Bram Schot as an interim replacement, a source familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. Schot joined the Volkswagen Group in 2011 after having worked as president and CEO of Mercedes-Benz Italia. He has been Audi's board member for sales and marketing since last September. The discussions risk reigniting tensions among VW's controlling Piech and Porsche families, its powerful labor representatives and its home region of Lower Saxony. VW has insisted the development of illegal software, also known as "defeat devices," installed in millions of cars was the work of low-level employees, and that no management board members were involved. U.S. prosecutors have challenged this by indicting VW's former chief executive Martin Winterkorn. Stadler's arrest raises further questions. Audi and VW said on Monday that Stadler was presumed innocent unless proved otherwise. Munich prosecutors detained Stadler to prevent him from obstructing a probe into Audi's emissions cheating, they said on Monday. Stadler is being investigated for suspected fraud and false advertising. Here are the main factors deciding the fate of Audi. Background: Audi's role in Dieselgate Volkswagen Group was plunged into crisis in 2015 after U.S. regulators found Europe's biggest carmaker had equipped cars with software to cheat emissions tests on diesel engines. The technique of using software to detect a pollution test procedure, and to increase the effectiveness of emissions filters to mask pollution levels only during tests, was first developed at Audi. "In designing the defeat device, VW engineers borrowed the original concept of the dual-mode, emissions cycle-beating software from Audi," VW said in its plea agreement with U.S. authorities in January 2017, in which the company agreed to pay a $4.3 billion fine to reach a settlement with U.S. regulators.
