Thank you for your interest. I am the third owner, and have only owned the car for a short while. The car was
purchased at Plaza Motor Company in Creve Coeur MO, and spent most of its life in Indiana. The car was sold by the
original family to a nephew in Florida in 2014. My goal was to bring the car to Concours condition, but I am
starting a business and need the cash for start-up costs. The car is mechanically in good condition, and I
recently spent $6100 on maintenance and upgrades.
I have scans of the invoice for the motor work and of the work performed recently in Houston. Also, I have records
including the original dealer invoice, but I don't have regular oil and brake fluid maintenance records before
2005. My understanding is that the car was maintained by the same mechanic (Farmer) for most of its life until
2014.
The car is stock in terms of suspension and other performance items besides the DME chip. The catalytic converter
was removed, but the original exhaust pipe is still on the car. The car was painted in 2005 and the seats were
recovered in the same year. This year, I replaced the existing performance chip with a Steve Wong chip, who also
upgraded the DME board to 28 pin.
Additionally, the motor was rebuilt in 2005 at 109K miles by Farmer Automotive in IN.Heads polished and ported,
cylinders honed, rings replaced, timing chain and rails replaced, valves ground, and guides replaced. 134a air
condition upgraded. Stereo replaced with Alpine CD player. The car has the following new items: Michelin Pilot
Sport tires, OEM brake pads and rotors in the front, rebuilt calipers front and back, SS brake lines, clutch cable,
shifter bushings, battery, spark plugs, air filter, valve adj, valve cover gaskets, Dot 4 brake fluid, Brad Penn
20/50 oil and filter.
The car runs really well. Pulls hard, and drives straight. I believe in as much disclosure as possible, so here
are the things I can think of that are negative:
1) Flaws in the paint job are difficult to detect unless viewed up close, but paint is not perfect.
2) The hood was replaced by the original owner. There is some small amount of corrosion on the hinges where the
new hood was attached, but the metal is solid. No evidence of accident under the car.
3) There is some corrosion around the battery box and the paper liner under the battery is ripped and brittle.
4) There is some corrosion around the underside of the rocker panels near the screw holes.
5) Occasionally, the first-to-second gear shift is a little notchy, so the synchro probably needs replacing at some
point in the future. The rest of the gears are smooth.
6) The front right corner of the windshield is slightly delaminated and you can see moisture. I have sealed the
gasket from the outside, so it shouldn't expand from there.
7) The roof has an indention about the size of a quarter, and maybe an 1/16 of an inch deep. Hard to detect unless
up close.
8) Rear glass heater does not work.

Porsche planning Cayman GT4 racer

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

To say that Porsche is big in racing is like saying that Warren Buffett dabbles in mergers and acquisitions. But while it fields the 919 Hybrid at Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the bulk of its racing activities are undertaken by private teams that buy customer racecars from the factory. Those in turn are largely based on the 911, but the latest intel from the motor racing world indicates that Zuffenhausen is planning a more accessible customer race car.
The new, more affordable competition car is to be based on the Cayman and built to GT4 specifications, slotting in below the 911-based GT3 Cup, GT3 R and RSR. Autosport reports that Porsche has already developed a prototype and will shortly commence testing. Details are scarce at the moment, but the Cayman GT4 would seem to compete against the likes of the Aston Martin Vantage N24, Nissan 370Z Nismo GT4 and Maserati GranTurismo MC. It will also likely help Porsche foster enthusiasm for a potential road version that's already been spotted undergoing testing. Previous GT4 racing conversions of the Cayman, like the one pictured above, were carried out by third-party racing constructors not recognized by the factory.
Porsche may not be the only one showing interest in the category, however. BMW is said to similarly be considering a GT4-spec version of its M235i Racing model to compete in the same class, taking the place of the defunct M3 GT4 as the Bavarian marque's entry-level customer racing car.

RM Sotheby's Turbollection features exotics from the '80s and '90s

Wed, Aug 14 2024

If you have even a passing interest in cars, there's little doubt you know a thing or two about Porsche, whether the topic centers around a classic name like 911 or the more mainstream Cayenne and Macan crossovers. Bugatti? Sure, most people know about the historic French builder of world-class, record-setting automobiles, though admittedly the EB110 we're about to show you probably wouldn't be the first to come to mind. Fewer are likely familiar with the likes of Vector Aeromotive, a tiny American company with history that dates back to the 1980s. And we'd wager that most have never even heard of the likes of Isdera and Cizeta. Brush up on your history, (super wealthy car collecting) folks. RM Sotheby's has an exciting array of cars coming up for auction during the Monterey Car Week festivities on California. Among all the expected Ferrari, Lamborghini and Shelby classics potential buyers can wade through, the so-called Turbollection collection features much rarer oddities.

World's largest toy car collection is in Beirut, and it's remarkable

Fri, Jan 31 2014

It's common for auto enthusiasts to have a few miniatures of their favorite cars around their home or office. They provide a respite of happiness knowing that if you can't have the real things, at least you can look at them in miniature. However, Billy Karam of Beirut, Lebanon, has taken collecting toy cars to its extreme. His collection of over 30,000 model cars and 400 dioramas is certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest collection of car toys. "You cannot buy the big ones, so you buy a thousand of the small ones instead," says Karam in the video. Karam is a former amateur racing driver with a weakness for all things Porsche, and many of his dioramas depict races that he drove in or attended. Looking at them gives him a chance to relive the experiences again, but unlike a photo or video, they are right there in three dimensions.
