2001 Porsche 911 Turbo on 2040-cars
Richland, New York, United States
If you have any questions or would like to view the car in person please email me at: israel.largent@zoho.com .
*RE-LISTED WITH MORE DETAIL AND PRICE REDUCED
You are looking at a marvelous 2001 Porsche 911 (996) All-Wheel-Drive, 6 Speed Manual Twin Turbo in Lapis Blue
Metallic with supple leather Graphite Grey interior. This Porsche has Recaro memory heated seats (Logo on
headrest), small carbon fiber package, Navigation, Porsche Stability Management System (PSM), Suede headliner, GT2
facelift front bumper, and highway driven very low 52,714 miles. Also included are factory installed Valentine-One
radar detector (built into rearview mirror) and laser diffuser (LED indicators next to hazard lights). As you can
see from the original window sticker, this car was driven off the Manhattan show room at the time for $122,705, and
I am the 3rd owner. This car is in used condition with a few (about 4) small dings (I can refer a paintless dent
removal guy) and a few chips on the windshield. I haven't replace the windshield, because as they mention on the
forums, this glass is installed by a precision robot, so if the chips are not distracting (they aren't to me), and
pass inspection (which this does with flying colors), don't replace it. Nevertheless, this is a head turner and
without doubt, the fastest car I have ever owned.
You won't be disappointed and will not find any Porsche Turbo within this asking price range.
*This car is in USED condition, but not ABUSED! Well taken care of and could be showroom with some TLC.
Mechanically the car is perfect, no strange noises like ticking from the engine, and the clutch is very strong. I
suspect the throwout bearing was upgraded but I have no proof, besides it grabs what RPM's you throw at it.
Upgraded:
Only modest modifications were done:
-True GT2 front bumper (Needs some TLC, otherwise amazing and rare)
-Flashed ECU to allow 1.2 Bar creating around (never dynode) 490 HP.
-Single Air intake converted to dual Carbon Fiber intake with K&N filter.
-HID Head Lights
The Used Factor:
-The front GT2 bumper cover should be repainted as the previous owner did not have flex additive to the paint, and
a little bump caused flaking and webbing.
-As mentioned before, the windshield has 2 out-of-main-view chips
-A few dints that could be removed with a painless professional (no cracked paint). Honestly, I couldn't even take
a picture of them, the camera wouldn't capture because they are too small.
-Typical of the age, the carbon fiber steering wheel and the cover over the center thermostat gauges have some
hairline cracks. This does not effect the strength and personal opinion is barely noticeable.
I drive the car once a week (Never in winter), as a car such as this, needs to be driven. I am in no rush, simply
looking for a new home for my baby.

'Ring Queen Sabine Schmitz battles Ron Simons in Porsche vs Ferrari scrap
Tue, 04 Jun 2013We hope you have seven minutes to kill. RSR Nürburgring recently took the time to pit Sabine Schmitz and her slightly modified Porsche 911 GT3 RS against Ron Simons and his Ferrari 458 Italia in a sparring match around the infamous Green Hell. The clip begins with the two drivers engaging in a smidgeon of smack talk before the two get down to the business of beating each other's doors off around one of the most challenging courses in the world. Simons calls his car superior to Schmitz's 911, while Schmitz says she's up against nothing more than a Fiat driven by an old Dutch man.
Don't hold any punches, you two.
We won't spoil the finale for you, but we will say the tango is worth watching. At the end, the loser calls for a rematch. We can't wait to see that throwdown. Check out the clip below for yourself.
Magnus Walker pops up again, this time with his Irish Green 911
Sun, 06 Oct 2013He was the subject of a short film called Urban Outlaw. He has been on Jay Leno's Garage. Twice. He even graced the cover of Road & Track in June. And after all of that, he appeared in a video by Hong Kong-based Silly Thing. So it isn't really surprising that Magnus Walker is at the center of attention in the latest video from XCAR, but it's surprising - and a treat - to see his mostly original Irish Green 1966 Porsche 911.
Powered by an air-cooled 2.0-liter flat six with 130 horsepower (more like 120 hp today, Walker says), riding on 5.5-inch wide wheels and turned with a wooden steering wheel, the little green 911 does represent some of the best aspects of classic car motoring.
Head on below to watch the long-form video on Walker and his Porsche, but if your time is limited, you're not missing much if you call it quits at five minutes - especially if you've seen his aforementioned videos before.
249 reasons you want to go to Goodwood Revival
Sat, Sep 16 2023At its most basic, Goodwood Revival is a long weekend worth of car races featuring cars made before 1970. There are lots of those, though, including some pretty great ones all over the world. But nothing is like Goodwood Revival because it's so much more than "just" vintage car racing. First, you have to look the part. Attendees are strongly encouraged to dress in period clothing from the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, with a strict dress code enforced should you want to enter the paddock. The goal is to create a more authentic atmosphere to match the cars and the meticulously restored and recreated paddocks, grandstands and other facilities of the reborn Goodwood circuit. Now, the dress code was relaxed this year since the Saturday was literally the hottest Sept. 9 on record in that part of England, and the organizers didn't want people dropping dead because they needed to wear an ascot. Some people definitely took the "relaxed" bit too far, but there was still plenty of atmosphere maintained. It really does make a big difference, as those "relaxed" individuals were often akin to seeing a Starbucks cup in a scene from "Game of Thrones." You can see what I came up with below along with former Autoblog editor Reese Counts and various other Goodwood attendees. Second, there's the parking lot. But I'll let this entire separate post detail that. Third, there's the enormous carnival-like area featuring vintage-looking rides and various boutiques. Both of those are on the outside portion of the track, and honestly, you could easily just spend your entire day in the parking lot and carnival/shopping area without even crossing over into the circuit area. There you'll find more shops, food and drink opportunities, plus obviously, race car paddocks and the track itself. Fourth, there are airplanes! I heard there are fewer than in the past, but they're there and they're cool. The Goodwood circuit started out life as the perimeter road around the World War II airfield RAF Westhampnett. Fifth, with all of the above, Goodwood Revival really is fun for the whole family. It isn't just a bunch of old guys sitting around in lawn chairs. There are plenty of women and adorably dressed children, including babies in vintage prams. It's also not an event that's exclusively for the uber rich, even if they are certainly in full force given who has the sort of money needed to go vintage racing.
