Only 777 PD Edition 1 cars were built... this is #243.  There are a lot of cool features that come with this model.  The 19” wheels from the 911 Turbo and flat black stripes are the most obvious, but there are also some beautiful interior and performance items as well.  The car has a black full leather interior including seats, dash, and door trim.  The steering wheel, gear shift lever, handbrake, and headliner are all covered in beautiful black Alcantara.  The instrument dials are unique to this model and there stainless steel entry plates that are engraved with “Porsche Design Edition 1”.  The PD 1 suspension is 10 mm lower than a standard Cayman S.


Additional Porsche options:

- Power seat package

- Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package

- Heated Front Seats

- Automatic Climate Control

- Bose High End Sound Package


I've installed a B&M Short Shift kit. This was a nice addition... quick, crisp shifts. I'll include the stock shifter if you desire.


I purchased the car in April of 2008.  I am the 2nd owner.  However, the first owner was a Porsche collector and only had the car for a month or two.  The car had 300 miles on it when I received it.


A TPC Racing Stage 2 Turbo Kit was installed when the car had approximately 10,000 miles on it. The turbo makes the car perform like it should have from Porsche.  I have well over $10,000 invested in this upgrade alone. It makes the car very quick, and it sounds quite pleasant as well. This turbo system yields over 450 HP. More info about the TPC turbo can be found here: http://www.tpcracing.com/tpc-racing-stage-2-cayman-turbo.html


The turbo is obviously not a Porsche system.  I make routine inspections of all plumbing and hardware to ensure proper operation.  If you are not comfortable performing maintenance and/or repairs, TPC Racing’s shop is in Jessup, MD and they have authorized shops around the country.


The car has never been on a track or a drag strip.


Aftermarket appearance upgrades that I’ve made:

- 3M clear bra

- all LED (white) interior and cargo space lighting

- replaced orange side markers with white

- changed the hood badge from gold trim to silver trim (matches the theme of the car much better)


The car currently has 16,650 miles on it.  I put a new set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires on the car about 2700 miles ago.  They are in excellent condition.


The car is in excellent condition. It has been garaged every night of it's life.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS spec sheet leaked, promises 500 hp

Mon, Feb 23 2015

Axis of Oversteer has three pages of what's purported to be the spec sheet for the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, and it's got a few bolded items noting key differences with the already spectacular 911 GT3. Prime among them is its output, pegged at exactly 500 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque, which looks at first blush to be a minor bump: just 25 hp and 14 lb-ft over the GT3, and the redline drops 200 rpm to 8,800 rpm. If the document is accurate, though, there will be a hefty dose of weight loss to make the most of it. The bodyshell and doors are aluminum, carbon fiber reinforced plastic is used for those vented front fenders (the vanes are plastic), the front trunklid, the rear engine cover, and the rear wing, while the roof is made of magnesium and the side windows are polycarbonate. The bucket seats, door entry guards, and other interior trim pieces are also fashioned from CFRP, and it gets lightweight door panels with pull-loops. Elsewhere around the coupe, the body grows wider by 50 millimeters in front and 30 mm in back over a track that's 36 mm wider. There's a pit-lane speed limiter for track days, tinted taillights, an optional Clubsport package with a six-point seatbelt, and GT3 RS logos everywhere. It's looking more and more like this car was developed to define the word "epic."

Robb Report chooses Porsche 911 as its Car of the Year

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Robb Report has picked the seventh-generation Porsche 911 Carrera S as its 2013 Car of the Year, saying the two-door captivated its judges with "agility, driving dynamics and balance." The German coupe bested 12 others who were also in the running - the impressive list of nominees included the BMW M5, Audi S8, Ferrari FF, Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG and the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.
Judging involved more than just throwing darts at pictures on the wall, as the publication enlisted a panel of automotive experts to test drive each vehicle for close evaluation. The panelists included 100 members of the Robb Report Club (comprised of top corporate executives and influential readers), Editor-in-Chief Brett Anderson and automotive consultant Robert Ross. Full results of the competition will be revealed in the luxury magazine's March issue, hitting newsstands in about a week.

Woman rushing to pub nearly causes head-on collision

Wed, Aug 17 2016

A woman in a rush to pick up her husband from a local pub caused this close call on a street in England this weekend. The near miss happened on Sunday on the B1253 between Rudston and Bridlington, East Yorkshire, England. A Porsche Cayenne driver attempted to overtake a blue Citroen on a blind curve but didn't see the white Skoda in oncoming traffic. Thanks to the Skoda driver's quick maneuvering on to the grassy shoulder the Cayenne only caused minor damage to the other two cars. Damian Hodgson is the owner of the dashboard camera who was behind the blue Citroen. After the close call Hodgson first stopped to check on the Skoda driver. Driver and car were okay, but a 10-year-old girl in the front seat was in tears. Hodgson then made his way down the road where the Porsche driver was speaking to the Citroen driver. He said the Porsche's driver gave some pretty lame reasons for putting so many people's lives in danger. "She said she was picking her husband up from the pub and was wearing a pair of slippers - but it's no excuse to be overtaking on a blind bend," Hodgson told the Mirror. "She did tell me she always overtakes at that spot though." Hodgson picked up the dashcam after a crash while on vacation in Florida last month. He offered the footage to both the drivers of the Skoda and the Citroen, but both declined. Hodgson told the Mirror that he hopes some good comes from the incident. "If anything comes of this, it is hopefully that the lady Porsche driver has learned a lesson and she will not put others in danger again."
