There are cars that are at the exact right time to collect; there are cars you'll love to drive; and this 1987
Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet is both. After all, this is the year the 3.2 was mated to the highly desirable
upgraded G50 five-speed, and while all 911s from this era are special, this baby is truly unique.
Porsche people probably picked up on some of the upgrades in the first glance. This roadster has been given a
widebody kit, dealer installed similar to the 1989 factory WBs. It's a far more sophisticated impression that feels
a bit European. The recent restoration was done by Magnum Motors of Marietta, GA famous for their high end exotic
auto services; and the only Porsche authorized body shop in the South East. The upgraded image looks fantastic on
the Artic White paint, with the classic blue leather interior and blue canvas top. You'll love how the sunlight
rolls off of all of this Porsche's legendary curves.
No other door opens with the same mechanical and deliberate sound like a classic 911 does. Enthusiasts turn around
when they hear that iconic 'pop' (yes it sounds crazy, but true.) And when people look, they will see a dark blue
interior that coordinates nicely with the rest of the Artic White car. You sit down in leather seats with the
racing sports steering wheel. Porsche's race-ready sensibilities means the tachometer is directly in front of the
driver. The rest of the instruments surround this in their own clearly marked pods to give you a comprehensive view
of what's going on with the engine. While this 911 is obviously a driver's car, it includes power windows and cold
air conditioning, though you rarely need it with the top down!
Beneath the rear hatch is the best part of any 911. The fuel-injected 3.2-liter Carrera flat-six was an exceptional
evolution of Porsche's legendary power plant. This is a performance motor that loves to intoxicate you with its
unique air-cooled song, and it's heightened even further with a deep bass exhaust. 1987 is a pivotal year for 911
fans, because it was again, the introduction of the G50 five-speed transmission. The combination of this engine and
transmission is so durable, that with proper care and maintenance, many of these era cars last over 250,000 miles
before a rebuild is needed! This was a much more robust gearbox base on which Porsche utilized to drive its sports
car reputation right up today.
From a driver's standpoint it gives you the confidence to take this baby on an adventure. And that's the whole
point of owning a car like this. The moment you find an open road, it's time to downshift and smile wide. That's
why it also comes with Porsche's legendary steering feedback, four-wheel disc brakes, and exceptionally wide, new
tires. So you'll instantly know why there is no substitute.
Here's a 911 Cabriolet nicely presented with all the right features. While the mileage seems a bit high, the G50
series are known to really hold up last for many years. This is the rare classic that proves you'll love driving
your collectables for many miles with no real problems!

Roger Rodas' widow suing Porsche over Carrera GT crash
Tue, 13 May 2014
Investigations undertaken by local law enforcement may have vindicated Porsche from any wrongdoing in the crash that killed actor Paul Walker and racing driver Roger Rodas last year, but the latter's widow is apparently not convinced. According to emerging reports, Kristine Rodas has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from Porsche Cars North America.
In her suit filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court, Rodas' attorney Mark Geragos reportedly disputes the findings of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, which asserted that the vehicle was traveling at an unsafe speed of 90 miles per hour on city streets, identifying the speed as the cause of the accident. Instead the lawsuit claims that the vehicle was only going 55 mph and that the cause of the crash was improper equipment - namely a faulty right rear suspension and the lack of a crash cage and proper fuel tank.
Porsche 918 Spyder already almost sold out?
Mon, 20 Oct 2014Still planning on getting your hands on a Porsche 918 Spyder? You'd better act quickly, because word has it that the hybrid hypercar is nearly sold out.
While Porsche has reportedly only delivered a little over 30 of the 918 examples of the Spyder it plans to manufacture in total, Automotive News says that production is sold out through late March or early April - just a few months shy of when production is set to wrap in July.
That's pretty impressive for a car with a base price of almost $850,000, especially one requiring a $200,000 deposit just to get your name on the list. Still, that sum is significantly less than its competitors get for the McLaren P1 or LaFerrari, both of which sell for over a million (if you can actually get on one at that price), though in fairness, production of each is limited to less than half of the 918 Spyder.
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).
