Due to an unexpected job transfer to the West Coast, I have reluctantly decided to sell my beautiful C4 coupe. I purchased it in December, 2011 from an eBay private seller located in Arkansas for $15,995. At that time, the car had 67,627 miles on it. I flew out and drove it back to New York without any problems; it ran fantastic. I brought it over to Rennwerk, LTD, a highly regarded Porsche specialty shop here in Westchester and had them go over the car. At that time, they completed all of the work that is shown on the receipt dated 1-11-12 ($3,289). Not shown is the receipt from Pepe Porsche for $ 1,554 which covered necessary parts including brand new factory left, right and center lenses/gaskets for the rear of the car. (The car came with a cracked center lens.) I had the windshield replaced with a new OEM unit on 5-8-12 due to a rock thrown up by a passing truck. I also replaced the rear view mirror with a new OEM unit.(Thank you Hagerty!) Finally, I had the rear brake pads replaced 6-7-12. The car just passed NY State inspection in January. Mechanically, the car runs great; tremendous power, excellent braking, smooth clutch and gearbox. However, it is not a show car as it has about 75K miles on it! I have included pictures that show some of the cosmetic issues; the rear bumper has been "bumped" at some point in the past so there is paint "cracking" visible; there is a touch up at the back of the drip rail on the driver's side; there is an imperfection on the sunroof and an assortment of other small paint chips. We found no evidence of any major accident repair when the car was gone over at Rennwerk although there was a little paint overspray underneath the driver's side front fender. All of the panel gaps are fine. The rear spoiler works as it should but the motor is somewhat noisy due to a dry bearing when the spoiler is deployed. The car came without a working air conditioning unit; the previous owner stated it need a new compressor. I did not have it replaced as it was not a priority. As far as the notorious oil leaks most of these cars have, yes, when up on the lift, the bottom of the engine had oil on it. The car does not drip oil onto the ground however and I did not have to constantly top off the engine oil level. I planned on having the engine re-sealed when the time came to do other mechanical work at some point in the future such as a new clutch, etc. The right bolster on the driver's seat has a crack in the leather due to use and should be repaired. The dashboard is fine with no cracks; all of the gauges work perfectly and there are no warning lights that remain lit after the car is started. The tires have some life left in them but I planned on replacing them this fall. Again, this is a beautiful 23 year old driver that will make its owner new owner proud, but it is not a mint "time warp" show car! I have started the auction at $12,500 with no reserve. Please call me if you need any more information: 917-658-7639. Thanks! Bill

Chris Harris gets filthy in a WRC-ready Porsche 911 RGT
Thu, Jan 15 2015Last time we rode with Chris Harris we were shotgun in the tan leather seat of his used-yet-immaculate Ferrari FF. This time we're strapped into a black racing bucket of a filthy Porsche 911 rally car, one that led Harris to effuse, "I don't think I've driven a more exciting car this year, hypercars included." The thrills come courtesy of a 997-series Cup Car that's been reworked by Tuthill Porsche to run in the RGT-class rally series that will piggyback on five World Rally Championship and European Rally Championship races this year. It's not quite the Rothmans Dakar monster, but the RGT series gives privateers an affordable way into rallying with cars that look different and are different from one another. This one kept its 3.8-liter, 444-horsepower 997 Cup engine, but the 39-milllimeter restrictor drops that to about 350 hp. Beyond that are a new rollcage, gear ratios, suspension, fuel tank, underfloor protection and just about everything else. Said the man who built it, it cost "a lot, and it's still costing." But Harris says even though you "have to have your wits about you," it's a hoot to drive. And this is one of the few times you'll hear the phrase "What a tool!" used as a compliment. Check it out in the video above. News Source: Chris Harris on Cars via YouTube Motorsports Porsche Coupe Off-Road Vehicles Racing Vehicles Performance Videos fia rally WRC chris harris porsche 997
Porsche forum claims eco-friendly 911 Blu coming to Frankfurt
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The fiftieth anniversary of the Porsche 911 has been a nearly year-long affair, with unique tributes and even a special anniversary edition with plenty of retro throwbacks. The party is expected to continue through the end of 2013, and if one 911 enthusiast forum is right, we'll see yet another special edition model near the anniversary of the original car's September 1963 debut, when it arrives at next month's Frankfurt Auto Show.
It's called the 911 Blu, and where the 911 50 Years Edition was more expensive than a 911 Carrera S hardtop, the Blu would be an entry level special edition. That's right, a limited run car that actually slots in at the very bottom of the 911 range. According to Porsche forum 911UK.com, the new car would be priced at 74,600 euros ($98,718 at today's rates) or 64,750 pounds. That undercuts the price of a base 911 in Germany by nearly 16,000 euros and in the UK by nearly 8700 pounds (although to be fair, it's roughly identical to the price of a base 911 C2S in the US).
This 911 will reportedly feature a detuned flat-six with 300 horsepower and 211 pound-feet of torque.
Modded budget Mazda Miata takes on new Porsche Boxster in more challenges
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Earlier this month, our friends across the pond at Auto Express released the first in a two-video series that would see them try and build up a second-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata that could best a standard Porsche Boxster around the track. While that first video detailed the mods to the MX-5 - a supercharger, some suspension upgrades and a new set of super-sticky rubber being chief among them - and set baseline lap times for the stock car, today, we have the results of the 5,000-pound ($8,200) upgrade job.
Of course, we aren't going to spoil those for you. You'll need to watch the full video, which recaps the upgrades before digging into a comparison of both straight-line-speed differences between the 2.7-liter Porsche Boxster and blown Miata, as well as their behavior and lap times on the track.
