This matching numbers 1973 Porsche 911T Coupe was well on its way to becoming the hot rod of somebody's dreams when
the project stalled. The car is Chassis #9113103431 and retains its original engine #6136072. Originally Silver
Metallic/80 with Black Leatherette interior, the car was resprayed this color and fitted with Corbeau sport seats,
flares and the bumpers you see pictured. The interior has a dash cover, so no cracks, and RS door panels along with
a MoMo steering wheel. The paint didn't survive well, and as you can see neither did the seats. The good news is
this car has not been attacked by rust. The floors are very solid as can be seen in the photos, as are the torsion
bar areas. Front pan has no rust but was modified for a front oil cooler at some point. We very rarely see an early
911 come in that is as solid as this car! The Zenith carbs pictured are not installed but are included with the
car. Windshield has a crack in it. Period 16x7 and 16x8 BBS are on the car, painted vintage racing gold.
The Porsche Kardex information is as follows:
1973 911T Coupe
Engine 6136072
Color Silver Metallic/80
Inside Black Leatherette/11
Option Codes:
C02 (USA delivery)
G53
M 473 (911S trim options)
This is a car that can be taken in the direction of your choice. Get it running and have a mean looking RS-style
hot rod or restore it to original and have one of the most desirable model years for an early 911. 1973 was the
last year of the original 911 body style with signature long hood, and as such remains very collectible.

Porsche stalls on Ferrari 458 rival
Mon, 17 Nov 2014A few years ago, reports surfaced that Porsche was planning a new supercar. But the latest intel suggests that the plan has been put indefinitely on the back burner.
The project alternately referred to as 960 or 988 was put forth by CEO Matthias Müller shortly after he assumed control of the German automaker. It called for a mid-engined V8 supercar to slot in between the 911 and the 918 Spyder to take on the likes of the Ferrari 458 Italia, McLaren 650S and sister-company Lamborghini's Gallardo and subsequent Huracán.
Now three years since the idea was first mooted, the vehicle has yet to materialize. According to Autocar, Porsche is putting a greater emphasis on refreshing its existing lineup. Which is probably just as well, because the mid-engined supercar would have a heck of a challenge on its hands to differentiate itself in terms of performance from the 911 GT3 and 911 Turbo, which already give the 458 and company a run for their money.
Despite premium carmakers going downmarket, luxury auto sales stick at 10-11%
Thu, 16 Jan 2014According to research conducted by global information company IHS Automotive, the leporine birthing of new models by luxury manufacturers over the past six years hasn't increased their market share in the US. Even as car sales reached 15.6 million units, IHS says what's happened instead is that luxury buyers are merely moving from one brand to another, moving from larger luxury vehicles into hot segments like compact luxury crossovers or leaving the market at the same rate as other buyers enter.
Whether broken out by makes or by segment, market share has rollercoastered inside a narrow band from 10.5 to 11.5 percent since "at least" 2008. Closer investigation reveals the shifting boundaries in the aspirational pond, with brands like Mercedes-Benz and Audi gaining territory as Lexus and Lincoln lost it, and Saab and Hummer were buried, dead, under it. One neat note is that Tesla has gone from a share of zip to .12 percent.
The subcompact and compact crossover segments show growth, with those little high-riders jumping from .3 percent to 1.16 percent of overall industry sales. Their rise, though, is concomitant with the decline of four other segments: compact and midsize cars and fullsize cars and SUVs. We think the next few years that will tell if the small-car expansion can overcome the large-car retraction, with a phalanx of smaller offerings like the CLA only recently hitting the market and others like the GLA, Macan and Q1 doing so in the near future.
Proof the world revolves around the Porsche Cayman
Sat, 27 Apr 2013Or at least the world revolves underneath the Porsche Cayman, in the latest video showing off Stuttgart's mid-engine coupe. Porsche put an Easter egg in the world that spins triple-time, a "famous relative" of the Cayman hidden somewhere on the marble planet, and gave a Porsche Martini bag to one of the first 50 people who could point it out.
With more than 300 views there's no chance you'll win the bag, but you can still go on the treasure hunt in the video below.
