 It is hard to put a value on something that is so extraordinary that is truly one of a kind.  What price after all could one put on pure bliss?  If you are reading this ad, you know probably can imagine the feeling of getting in your dream car and putting some distance between you and your everyday life.
 
There is no doubt certain cars create an absolute frenzy. They can draw crowds, spark up nostalgia and almost immediately make our lives that much less ordinary. With a turn of their ignition they can forge a grin on the toughest of men and with each passing mile make our dreams come true.  
 
These cars have a blend that is one part beautiful design, one part extreme power to weight and a dash of adrenaline that can only be enhanced by a sound so symphonic it stays in in our minds vault for an eternity.

This ad is to showcase on of these very special cars.  Ava is a Porsche 356 Outlaw Replica that can stand proudly amongst some of the world’s most beautiful vehicles.  Designed and professionally built to spec for a high performance 911 drivetrain, positively no excuses need be made regarding her heritage.

Ava’s collection of best in show trophies and her online following speak volumes to the fanfare that has resulted since a recent refit and transition into a full on yet fully drivable 356 Outlaw Roadster. The car’s work was performed by some of the best talent in my region and a complete history of the work performed will transition to Ava’s next keeper.

Ultimately my goal with Ava was to create a best of its kind Outlaw and that’s what I believe you see before you today. The car can be driven with tremendous enthusiasm for hundreds of miles on end. The fiberglass 356 body eliminates the concern of rust and expands the car’s usability while the scorching performance delivered by a 200+ Horsepower Porsche Flat Six and highly modified suspension places Ava’s go fast capabilities can humiliate many a late model super car.

Some Details:
 
Ava is Historic Registered and Titled  in NJ as a 1956 356 Porsche. Her power comes from a very warmed up John Donohue built 2.7 Liter motor with Mahle pistons, a set of Webers and a laundry list of other hi-po goodies.

The car was manufactured using a slab side body with very minor rear SC style flares over a modified partial tube frame, Porsche 911 rear suspension, Disk Breaks and a Porsche 5 speed 901 transmission.  

As you look through the supporting photos you will start to see the car was not intended to reflect any one particular 356 model year. Nor was it supposed to be an exact clone.  While the original cars are great, Ava was never intended to be passed off this of as part of their tribe.  

Some of trim pieces that make this 356 replica so special include: Dash Mounted Heuer Stopwatches, Custom Fitted 356 Carrera Rear Valance, Adjustable SuperTrap Trumpets, Route 30 Classics-Speedster Headrest Cowl, Fibersteel Porsche 550 Spyder Mirrors and Leather Bonnet Straps, Nardi Wheel with Porsche Crest, Original Early Series Porsche Fuchs, Lemans Style Auxiliary Lamps, an Original 356: rear Deck Lid, Door Strikes, Hinges, Gas Tank, Glass, Convertible D Top Frame and German Cloth Top and soft cover as well as a fair amount of  other original 356 trim bits throughout.

Starting out, the objective was to have a very unique car that would sound epic, look ravishing, and drive like a street legal racer. The great conversations and new friendships, trophies and other attention well…they became pleasant but unexpected outcomes of life with Ava.

Watch Carrera Cup driver Connor de Phillippi's first lap of the N"urburgring

Thu, 23 May 2013

American race driver Connor de Phillippi was recently added to the roster of Porsche Juniors, the arm of Porsche's factory racing program that develops new talent. The 20-year-old is contesting the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland series with FÖRCH Racing by Lukas Motorsport, and last weekend, he raced the series round at the Nürburgring. Starting 15th on the grid, de Phillippi would cross the line in ninth out of 32 finishers.
Courtesy of his in-car camera, you can watch his entire first lap in the video below - there's no music added, just engine whine during nine minutes of crests, turns, bumpy straights and that wicked Carousel. Enjoy.

Parents of terminally ill child sue after son dies following make-a-wish-style ride

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

Some stories are so sad and depressing, they make you want to go back to bed and pull the covers over your head. This is one such story. 14-year-old Raphael Wittman was suffering from an unspecified form of terminal cancer when he was invited by the children's cancer charity Kinder Krebs Hilfe to a charity drive organized by Porsche Forum Austria. During the drive, the Porsche Boxster Wittman was riding in was involved in a head-on collision. Both of his legs were broken and he bit off his tongue in the wreck. He died seven weeks later, in a Vienna hospital. Now, his father is suing the charity, claiming that the accident robbed his son of the will to live.
"The accident set off a chain of events starting with the doctors putting him on new medication for the cancer he had. He was always a fighter, but suddenly he was saying that he was not going to fight any more," Franz Wittman told Austria's Kurier, according to The Guardian. "We would have had a wonderful last time together [on vacation] but it never happened because of the accident."
Father and son were originally planning to go to Tenerife to spend time together, although those plans were cancelled following the accident.

Porsche Macan caught completely uncovered

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Porsche is preparing to launch its sub-Cayenne CUV, with a suspected debut at the 2013 Los Angeles International Auto Show, which means we're right about at the point where undisguised models start scampering around the cities and towns of Germany. Our spy photographers snagged just such a model, with only the headlights and taillights concealed by camouflage (no, those comically large lamps aren't a production item).
The undisguised car looks like a tiny Cayenne. Not really surprising, we know, but it's impressive to see how the Cayenne's styling works with the smaller proportions of the Macan. It looks squat, athletic and poised, like it's a small, "sporty" crossover we'd actually want to drive. Both the Macan and the Macan Turbo are shown, with the more powerful model sporting a set of quad exhausts.
The only big questions now concern the shape of the lights and the interior. From the photos, we can see a rough outline of the headlights, although the taillights are more difficult to discern. The interior remains a mystery.
