For more details email me at: charleysauage@juno.com . Beautiful, fast, german sports car. Has Bi-Xenon lights which simply illuminates the road almost as well as the
sun. Comfortable for daily driving yet when pushed makes a perfect weekend cruiser. Communicative steering unlike
any car at this price. Sharp and precise. Revs to 7200 rpm through a six speed manual. Light clutch with sharp
gear changes. Grips the road beautifully. Never seen a track in my possession which I am the second owner at 48k.
Never seen snow, ice, or salt. Climate control works great or open the windows and sunroof and take all the
outdoors in. Comfortable hugging seats that are heated. Has a front trunk (frunk) for all the groceries you could
need. Has two rear seats thought the one behind driver only usable for a small child or car seat and the other
side a slightly bigger child but still probably under 100 lbs. Averaged about 25 mpg between usual 1 hr casual
drive and 3-5 hr sportier driving. On interstate managed 31mpg. Has rear automatic spoiler that is hidden under
60 to keep the classic beautiful lines. Brakes so powerful you have better of had a light lunch. Makes a
beautiful noise throughout the whole rpm range and she really starts pulling at 3k rpm. Since 60% of the weight is
over the rear wheels with the engine hanging out behind the wheels the driving style is a little different. It is
a slow in fast out car. So, enter the corner slow but can get on the power sooner. Rewards almost every sense
every time you turn your left hand clockwise to start the car and take off. Subtle enough to not get cops
attention with its dark grey metallic paint and soft curvy body. There is a reason why this car is so praised in
almost all circles of people have driven them, just ask Clarkson, Hammond, or May. Car comes in at 3100 lbs being
a light weight compared to other BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audis.

Had full service at 60k consisting of oil, oil filters, air filter, cabin filter, trans flush, sparkplugs. Full
service at independent german tech center cost $550 at 60k. Told by dealer Clutch was replaced before bought at
48k. New alternator at 48k. New water pump, Rear brake pads, discs, sensors at 48k. Will need new rear tires after
summer driving season. Has two keys though each have broken cases, both unlock and front trunk buttons stopped
working on key fob but key still locks and unlocks car. Small scratch on side in front of wheel well. Couple
interior buttons labels worn. Seats have slight wear. Front has multiple rock chips with a couple on the hood.
Passenger side front bumper has some spots with paint missing.

Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship

Tue, 24 Sep 2013

Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.

2014 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

Porsche's Performance Plug-in Preamble
By the end of this year, Porsche will be producing as many plug-in vehicles (two) as mainstream automakers such as Toyota, Chevrolet and Honda. Before the 2015 918 Spyder hybrid supercar goes on sale in the US, though, it will be warming its customers up to the idea of a plug-in model with the 2014 Panamera S E-Hybrid. A step up from the previous Panamera S Hybrid, the new plug-in Panamera adds a more powerful and advanced electric drive system that pledges to deliver the performance expected of a Porsche with the added benefit of improved fuel economy and reduced emissions.
Going on sale in November, the Panamera S E-Hybrid is aimed at customers also considering the upcoming plug-in version Mercedes-Benz S-Class, but the car's dimensions and performance could make it a competitor for Tesla Model S customers. We headed to Germany at Porsche's invitation to see how well it performs, as well as check out the full range of newly refreshed Panamera models, which now numbers nine offerings - although we're still waiting for a production version of the gorgeous Sport Turismo wagon concept.

VW will reportedly offer cash to cheated diesel car drivers

Sun, Nov 8 2015

If you're feeling burned by Volkswagen's decision to cheat on diesel emissions tests, you might get some compensation for your troubles. Sources for The Truth About Cars understand that VW will launch a "TDI Goodwill Program" that compensates diesel car drivers with cash in the form of prepaid cards. In the US, you'd get both a $500 universal card as well as a VW-only card worth $500 to $750. The automaker isn't confirming details just yet, but it tells the New York Times that it's planning an announcement on Monday. Dealers also tell the newspaper that they're aware of a program in the works, although they don't know the specifics. It may not include the expanded range of cars reportedly tainted by the scandal, though, since VW is denying claims that it cheated with some models. This isn't the only olive branch VW has been offering: it's been handing out deals to existing owners willing to hop into new vehicles, and there are more discounts than usual across the board. However, the goodwill effort would represent the first instance of VW directly compensating drivers who'd previously thought they were getting an eco-friendly machine. This isn't going to make up for years of unnecessary pollution, but it may represent the company's best hope of holding on to customers.
