I have for sale an extremely nice 1992 Porsche 359 D replica, complete with roll up windows. I purchased the car for its original owner who had purchased it at an auto show in California in the early 1990's from a Canadian manufacturer. The car was and still is equipped with a Kilometer Odometer and Speedometer. (This is easily changed out with a US gauge) He kept the car in California for a number of years and then drove it to his second home in Oregon. From then on it became the weekend country club and dinner date car. The car is titled as a 1963 Volkswagon. I called Henry at Intermecannica to see if it was one of his cars. I sent him numerous pictures and he surmized that it was, although he could not completely explain why the VIN # did not start with IM. It has the tubular frame, the larger, wider foot area in the cabin for the driver and passenger, the trigger short shifter, the correct door panels, the hartz cloth top, the hartz cloth boot, etc, etc. It even has windshield washers that actually work. A current style radio is installed with the blue tooth option. It has the normal chips and small scratches that are associated with a car of its age. I have owned a 2007 Speedster replica by a California manufacturer and there is no comparison. This car is as solid as a rock and I would not hesitate driving it anywhere. The doors close like a real German car. The windows roll up and down flawlessly and the top actually fits like a glove. It has a 1600 VW engine with twin carbs that starts effortlessly and performs as it should. There is a small oil leak that I suspect would be corrected by a valve cover gasket. It is very minimal and usually disappears the more it is driven. All of the lights, turn signals etc. work as they should. The heater and blower work very well. Also included with the sale is an original style shifter and 4 chrome wheels. Please call Steve at 913-634-0040 with questions. I will answer them the best that I can. I am only selling because of an opportunity to purchase a late model C4S from a local PCA member. Take a look at the pics and call with questions. Thanks for looking.

Porsche Macan to debut at LA Auto Show
Wed, 29 May 2013Auto Express reports Porsche will unveil the upcoming Macan SUV at this year's LA Auto Show. Citing an unnamed "insider," AE says that the five-door will bow with engines, suspension and interior architecture that will help differentiate it from its Audi Q5 chassis mate. Big shocker there. We've been hearing the same line since we first caught word of the Macan back when it was still rolling around under the Cajun name. The report does shed some light on the model's pricing, however. That same insider says the Porsche Macan will carry a price tag of 36,000 pounds.
What does that mean for American buyers? Do some quick math based on current conversion rates, and average UK and US prices, and we come up with a sticker of roughly $42,000 here in the land of the free. That fits in line with the rest of the company's stable, with the larger Cayenne starting at $49,600.
Still, we'll wait for more concrete word before jumping behind the AE report wholeheartedly. The 2013 LA Auto Show gets going in late November.
2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S
Fri, 19 Jul 2013I don't care who you are; when a new Porsche 911 rolls up in your driveway, that's a pretty good day. This was my very first experience with Porsche's 991 911, and after having spent time with just about every tune and trim of the last car, I was hotly anticipating comparing and contrasting.
Somehow (I don't remember sending out any cash-filled, unmarked envelopes) I'd scored a week in the 911 Carrera 4S over a long holiday weekend, too. That meant that I'd get to A) log a ton of miles in one of the best cars in the world, B) get to show-off the Porsche to family and friends and C) tempt cops in three states to pull me over. Good thing I've got the Autoblog traffic lawyer on speed dial...
Driving Notes
These were our favorite cars of 2022
Tue, Dec 20 2022Favorite cars is different than best cars. The idea of "best" can speak to value and overall competitiveness in a given vehicle segment. There's lots of objectivity involved and to do a "best" list right, one really must be very thorough and as scientific as possible. This is not that list. This is about our favorites, so objectivity be damned. If we liked a Challenger Hellcat because it made loud noises or a Honda Odyssey because it made for a particularly special family vacation, fair game. These were the cars that most spoke to our collection of editors and the ones that stayed in our minds and hung in our hearts long after they left our driveway. — Senior Editor James Riswick 2022 GMC Hummer EV Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder: I didn't particularly expect to like the new Hummer. I wasn't a fan of the Hummer H2 or H3, so I wasn't automatically enthusiastic about this electric reboot. Fast EVs aren't hard to come by — and, in fact, may be too easy to come by — so its performance specs weren't enough to win me over. Despite videos to the contrary, pickups aren't my favorite vehicular format. And its excessive size and weight turned me off ... until I finally got behind the wheel. This thing is wildly entertaining to drive. Watts to Freedom launch control is a neat party trick, sure, but the novelty wears off quickly. The novelty of Crab Walk, however, has staying power. The rear-wheel steering makes this behemoth feel much smaller than it is — the maneuverability is incredible, and useful. The air suspension provides tons of clearance, including a ridiculously high-riding Extract mode. I can't wait for lesser versions of the Hummer to make their way to market. Give me less power (for less money), but keep the off-road tricks onboard, and I'll be a happy camper. Senior Editor, Consumer, Jeremy Korzeniewski: If I could afford to put one of these in my driveway, I would. Sadly, I can't, so I won't (What's that, Janet? I got the lyric wrong?). Still, I love the dumb thing. Thankfully, I have another choice down below. 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 Associate Editor Byron Hurd: Yeah, duh, Porsches are good. But there's good, and then there's GT3. This is the feeling every performance-oriented RWD tuner is trying to replicate. This is hard, precise, surgical and immensely satisfying. To begin to explore this car on a public road is by itself an admission that you believe yourself to be above the rules as they apply to normal drivers.
