This is a very unique opportunity to purchase a collector grade 356 Porsche Hardtop Cabriolet.  This all original, numbers matching 1959 356 Hardtop Cabriolet is a very rare find indeed.  This car actually spent most of it's life right here in Omaha, Nebraska in the basement of a local Porsche Club enthusiast.  It was purchased from a struggling dental student who needed money for semester tuition in the early 1960's.  From that point it spent nearly 40 years in storage, cared for by our local enthusiast.  The local enthusiast sold this car to a friend of his in Houston, Texas and then we purchased it from his friend a few years ago.  It's really kind of a neat story how this car made it's way back to Omaha, the Heartland of America.  Upon receipt, the car needed some TLC but had excellent "bones."  That is to say, this was an ideal car to perform a complete restoration on because it was truly a rust free example of Porsche history.  Our restoration specialist worked on this car for nearly 2 years before completing the job, and the results are truly magnificent.  Now better than new, you have the opportunity to purchase this absolute gem.  The 1959 356 Hardtop Cabriolet is a very rare 356 model, and you are not likely to see many others in existence today.  I promise, you'll be the envy of many if you decided to show this car competitively.  It's truly remarkable, and you need to see it in person to fully appreciate the talent and skill of our restoration specialist.  I promise you won't be disappointed, so make plans to come see this beauty today.  Call me now at (402) 592-1000 to make an appointment for viewing.

Evo sets up duel of Porsche 911s

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

What's better, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive? That question has occupied auto enthusiasts for years, and so far, we've not really had a solid answer one way or the other. Evo has opted to take another whack at this tough question by pairing a pair of Porsche 911s against each other for a track battle.
In one corner, we have the two-wheel-drive 911 Carrera S, complete with the lickity-split PDK transmission, a sports suspension and carbon-ceramic brakes. In the other corner, it's the all-wheel-drive 911 Carrera 4S in a much mellower spec, with a seven-speed manual, as well as standard brakes and suspension. While the results seem like they'd be a foregone conclusion, some very British weather is there to act as the great equalizer.
We've got the full video down below. Have a look, and let us know if you agree with Evo's results.

Porsche Boxster Spyder GT4 under consideration

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Apparently, the Porsche Boxster Spyder will not be the ultimate example of the breed, after reports have surfaced indicating that Porsche is considering an even hotter roadster after seeing strong demand for the all-new Cayman GT4. The new lightweight Boxster was just unveiled a few weeks back at the 2015 New York Auto Show, showing a 3.8-liter flat-six, just like the Cayman GT4. It's without a number of GT4-specific components, though. According to Autocar, a Boxster Spyder GT4, if it were built, would benefit from the same 911 GT3-inspired adjustable front suspension, a unique rear suspension, GT3-spec brakes and a new aerodynamic kit. "We are looking at it right now," a source within Porsche told Autocar. "Much of the engineering has already been done for the Cayman, so we think this might be a good direction for us."

Dan Neil pokes fun at the celeb cars of 2014

Sun, Dec 28 2014

Look, we try really hard not to pay any attention to the Kardashians and their vapid reality TV empire. But, as troubling as that brood may be, occasionally we're impressed and/or horrified by their four-wheeled conveyances. In fact, that curiosity extends beyond talentless reality stars with rotund glutes to celebs in general. That's why we're enjoying Dan Neil's sometimes biting take on the celebrity cars of 2014. Besides paying tribute to Kim K, husband Kanye West and the adorable Lamborghini that their spawn rides about in, Neil also takes a look at LeBron James' turn as a Kia spokesman and boxer Floyd Mayweather's trio of Bugatti Veyrons. Matthew McConaughey is a focus of Neil's as well, thanks to his oft-panned advertisements for Lincoln (and the raucous parodies they inspired), before finishing on the high, with Jerry Seinfeld and his new Porsche 918 Spyder. Take a look at Neil's recap of the celebrity cars of 2014. News Source: The Wall Street Journal Celebrities Humor Bugatti Kia Lamborghini Lincoln Porsche Videos porsche 918 spyder celebrity dan neil
