beautiful 1957 356 A coupe. This is a california black plate carthat has been in CA until this year. It seems it was purchased in CA in 1957, then resold in the 70's to a person who had the color professionally changed from silver to Porsche red and the engine upgraded to a 1963 Super 90 engine and kept it until this year. The paint was done well and has the perfect amount of patina for this cars over all look. The steering wheel, shift knob chrome etc. has that perfectly aged look that lets you know that this was always a very well kept car. In my opinion, for a driver car, this kind of character makes the car cooler than one that is perfectly restored. It's for the owner that uses his cars and is not afraid to park it in the center of town or along the beach boardwalk.
The interior is new including professionally reupholstered correct seats, the speedometer and tach do not work. The car is very tight and drives very well, I drive it almost daily and it flies down the highway very well. I dont know if the engine has been rebuilt ever, but its very clean top and bottom and runs great. The tires are new, the paint shows very well. All lights work, the doors close perfectly. the doors line up well, windows go up and down as they should. It could use new windshield and backlite rubber. all sheet metal is matching number.
The car gets looks everywhere and is a blast to drive. Its not the kind of car that should be left in a garage without being used, its perfect for the guy or girl that is not afraid to use it! email for more info or if you want to come and see it.

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.
Corvette gets slidey with Britain's best performance cars
Sat, 18 Oct 2014Autocar wants to find Britain's best driver's car, and it's challenging a murderers' row of some of the world's best performance vehicles to find out, including the latest Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. All of them were therefore assembled at the Castle Combe Circuit to find a winner.
If it wants to take the crown from this pack of mostly European competitors, the 'Vette has to beat some steep competition. Its challengers include monsters like the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Ariel Atom 3.5R and Jaguar F-Type Coupe. As a further hurdle for the winner to clear, Autocar also has last year's champ among the fighters - the Porsche 911 GT3.
Even if you're not at all interested in the C7, there's still something here for practically any fan of fast cars. The competitors include relative oddities among the pack like the Renault Mégane RS Trophy and Alfa Romeo 4C. Plus, Autocar has some well-positioned microphones that let you hear the Atom wailing like a banshee and the roar of the 458 Speciale. Check out the video to see which one of these all-stars takes home the award this year.
CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
