Having been around 911's for 30 years, be assured that this is a great survivor example with which I am truly sad to see go. First off here are the items that may need attention depending on how important they are to you. I have fixed or serviced the things that were important for me. The AC doesn't blow cold. Normally these cars had an AC unit that felt like a small dog panting or your leg so unless you live in the far south or want a mechanically perfect car then this may not be an issue for you. I do not know if it just needs a charge or if the system needs to be replaced. If it were me and I wanted AC in this car then I would pull this OEM unit out and instal one of the new upgraded models such as the Rennaire unit [as with any 911 of this generation]. The is a spot under the license tag area where at some point a previous owner has run over something that has curled the rear valance back just a bit [maybe a half inch]. It doesn't bother me so I haven't ever addressed it but I'd think it would be fairly easy to curl back with a bit of effort. It wouldn't be perfect without taking it to a shop but you could get it pretty close. You would want to be careful not to bend in such a way that the paint would peel/chip/flake at the edge. There is a picture that shows what I am describing. FYI you won't see it unless you look right at it.... it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. There are a few small leaks around the front and rear corners of both the driver and passenger window. I have installed a new Targa Top and because of that, I am getting these few small leaks. The top itself needs to be adjusted [the side seals]...which should fix the leak. The front windshield seal has been replaced. The rear still seams to be in good shape. I rarely drive it in the rain so this has never been a priority for me. Actually the top usually stays off of it.... Services in the last 5,000 miles: Full front brake job including the addition of cross drilled front rotors New Front Left Right Brake Calipers/sensors/pads/hoses Valve Adjustment New Plugs New Distributor Cap New Ignition Rotor New Valve Cover Gasket Set New Air Filter New Belt New Battery New Clutch Cable New Boston Acoustic Speakers New Shift Bushing Set [not installed but will send with car] New Front Windshield Seal New Targa top [refurbished - it looks amazing] Options that make this car stand out: Turbo Sport Power Seats Steering wheel extender [if you've never driven a 911 with one then you'll wonder why they weren't standard equipment when you drive this one] Adjusted Brake Pedal [lowered to help better facilitate heal & toe - can easily be readjusted with a few simple handtools] Hand Polished/Finished Fuchs Wheels Front and Rear Spoiler [spoilers on a Targa make all the difference]

German judge 'inclined to dismiss' hedge fund lawsuit against Porsche
Fri, Feb 27 2015Last year, around two dozen investors, including hedge funds, leveled a 1.4 billion euro ($1.95 billion at the time) lawsuit against Porsche in connection with the automaker's attempted takeover of Volkswagen in 2008. The Stuttgart Regional Court dismissed the case. Around 19 of those plaintiffs are heading back to court to appeal the ruling and still hope to get 1.2 billion euros ($1.4 billion). However, according to one German judge, the chances for success aren't any better this time around. "On balance it's our view that we consider the lawsuit, or the appeal, to be unpromising for several reasons," Gerhard Ruf, a judge in Stuttgart, said to Reuters. "We are inclined to dismiss the case." The court's ruling on the appeal will be announced on March 26. The investors' case hinges on Porsche's strategy surrounding the botched takeover. The sports car maker said that it wasn't trying to control VW, when in fact it was. These hedge funds had bet against Volkswagen stock, but the share price surged when Porsche's plan inevitably came to light. Investors have sued the sports car company multiple times since then in attempts to recoup billions of dollars. However, none of the lawsuits have been successful, whether attempted in the US or Germany. Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and and CFO Holger Haerter might still stand trial for the alleged stock manipulation, though.

A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan
Wed, 27 Nov 2013
He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.
2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S
Wed, 04 Sep 2013A Wicked-Fast Street Legal Multi-Tool
Walter Röhrl was carving up the circuit in the Porsche 911 Turbo S like a skilled Jedi Master - and I was sitting next to him, mesmerized by the breathtaking show. I had strapped myself securely into the front passenger bucket of the all-new coupe less than a minute earlier, expecting nothing more than a few quick laps around a track at the hands of another celebrated race driver. Been there, done that. Many times, actually.
Yet this was different. Röhrl was not only calculated and methodical in his approach, but his rally-tuned cerebrum appeared to be actively reading available grip levels while effortlessly tossing the all-wheel-drive Porsche into each corner at gut-wrenching speeds. His hands were moving rapidly, sending tiny steering corrections to the front tires, and he was using every inch of the track to extract more speed. We launched over a curb, dropped a wheel in the dirt and then drifted around a wide off-camber turn. His human precision and focus was astounding, and the performance he was extracting from the machine was just short of breathtaking.
