Porsche 356b Cabriolet on 2040-cars
|
Original California Black Plate, 1963 Porsche 356B Super Cabriolet This Porsche 356 has been completely restored. The car is a stunning investment grade vehicle that is appreciating at a fast rate. I bought this California car from the 2nd owner, had have driven it for years and recently restored it (original owner only owned the car for 9 months in 1963/64). The engine has 25k miles on it since we rebuilt it. Not only is the car gorgeous, it's a superbly running and handling ride. The car has been professionally restored top to bottom:
The car bottom is original with the original undercoat in many areas (we have not recoated it so you can see it); Rockers & jack area are clean, battery box was replaced a decade ago and has no rust. The steering wheel and horn have not been replaced or redone because they look cool worn a bit though the entire dash has been restored. Engine p*703519*: Porsche 356 Super though we upped the cylinders to 1740 cc's, and powered painted all sheet metal and finished off with the original water transfer decals. The engine has 25k miles on it since its being rebuilt starts first time, and runs like a top! Trans: 4 speed original Paint : Silver Porsche code, two stage with the best clear coat on the market. Interior: Black interior upholstery with charcoal square weave German carpet. Soft top: Black with haring bone headliner. Wheels: Chrome rims with Porsche hub caps (not original) with steal belted tires in good condition. I have owned a number of 356's over the years and I restore them to look great but be reliable classic you can actually drive and have fun with! Each has sold quickly because of the quality we do AutoMagic Network.com. All of my cars are meant to be driven and used though there are meticulously done. We own a body shop in Hermosa Beach Ca. and we also own a detail shop so this car has been well taken care of. What it needs, if you want: The letter "S" (for Super) could be put on the car (we have it in the glove box). Steering box is a little sticky and could be rebuilt or replaced ( I have replacement seals). Few chrome bolts on the sets brackets should be replaced because the original chrome tops are worn and the replacements have flat heads ( I don't like that). A piece of dust got is in the paint on the drives side quarter panel which should be color sanded or blended ( Porsche Silver). Interior light and cigarette lighter needs to be hooked up. Bonuses: The car has a complete tool kit with mostly original tools; Porsche name plate under hood has been re-plated in nickel and looks amazing; 356 shop manual, Owners manual/book, Extra electrical/mechanical parts, Original tube radio with original speaker covers and new speakers are included. Complete file on the car with receipts from the last decade. This is a stunning investment-grade example of a rare and desirable 356 model.

Porsche Cayman, Boxster caught in GTS trim
Sat, 18 Jan 2014A few months ago, we reported on some leaked information from an internal presentation for upcoming Porsche models. This included details about the Macan and the 911 Targa, which we now know to be true, but there was also talk about GTS versions of the Cayman and Boxster.
Well, it appears we're now getting our first look at these GTS models, as our spy photographers have just snapped a pair of Porsche prototypes out testing - one Cayman and one Boxster.
Right off the bat, we can see that both GTS-branded cars will get a slightly tweaked exterior with new fascias (bringing LED daytime running lights to the Cayman) and air diffusers at the rear. The true gem of these cars will be the added horsepower to the tune of 340 horsepower - a 15-hp bump. A manual transmission will likely be standard, as will Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM).
Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids
Fri, 24 Oct 2014Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.
1986 Porsche 959 Prototype at Barrett-Jackson sees gavel fall at $440,000 [UPDATE: w/video]
Sat, 19 Jan 2013Fans of Porsche in America have longed for the chance to buy a 959 ever since the German automaker produced and sold it (well, sold it everywhere but the United States...) in the 1980s. Well, they just had their chance. The car you see above is a Porsche 959 prototype built in 1986, and only one other running prototype still exists.
The 959 prototype can't be driven on public roads, as it carries no such certification. Somehow, we doubt that matters all that much to the new buyer - this one is probably going to be sitting in a collection. When the gavel finally fell, bidding had reached $400,000, plus a 10-percent buyer's fee.
Check out our high-res image gallery above to see this prototype up close, and scroll down below to watch a video of it crossing the auction block and for its official auction description.
