2005 Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
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.

2014 Porsche Cayman promo video hits the web
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Don't know how we missed this, but you don't have to play around with the 2014 Porsche Cayman configurator to see the new coupe in action; Porsche has given us more than two beautiful minutes of Cayman footage to enjoy.
The partners in the on-screen tango are the 275-horsepower base Cayman and the 325-hp Cayman S. If you like to keep track of such things, the former starts at $52,600, the latter at $63,800, plus $950 destination for each. Watching a video like the one below, however, is free.
Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe vs Porsche Panamera Turbo S in unusual lux showdown
Fri, 07 Nov 2014We'll admit it, we're really looking forward to more time with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe. Compared to other high-dollar luxury coupes - we're looking at you Bentley Continental GT - it's more stylish, easily more affordable, and since it's a Mercedes, lacks the sense of fragility that comes with a more exotic name plate.
Auto Express has taken a whack at reviewing the new two-door S-Class, and for some reason, the British mag is comparing it with a Porsche Panamera. Now, while comparing the looks of an S-Class Coupe and a Panamera is a bit like holding a beauty contest between Kate Upton and Medusa, this isn't as bizarre a pair as you might think, particularly when you opt for the high-dollar S63 AMG Coupe and the Panamera Turbo S.
The two offer similar power outputs from their force-induced V8s - 577 horsepower in the Benz and 570 horsepower in the Porsche - and are even similar in terms of interior and exterior dimensions. The S-Class actually has an extra inch between the axles and is 1.2 inches longer overall (it's also about 300 pounds heavier). In the cabin, the S-Class also has a tiny bit more rear legroom, with 33.4 inches to the Panamera's 33.3.
What is the fastest car in the world in 2024?
Sat, Jun 15 2024It wasn't that long ago that the notion of reaching 200 miles per hour in a car, on a road, seemed basically impossible. As you likely know by now, that time has passed. And once that threshold was crossed, the automotive world immediately began eying the next triple-digit benchmark: 300 miles per hour. It may have taken a little while, but the 300-mph line has been crossed, and some cars have moved well past that seemingly insane speed number. While some of these speeds have been achieved in simulations (including the fastest car listed below), there's little doubt that a driver with nerves of steel and a heavy right foot could indeed push several automobiles up to 300 miles per hour and beyond. Interestingly, it’s not just one car or automaker in the 300-mph club, as a handful of models have earned a place (sometimes claimed but not yet demonstrated) on the leaderboard. The fastest car in the world is: Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut (330 MPH) That title goes to the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, which recorded a staggering 330 mph top speed earlier in 2023. The carÂ’s twin-turbocharged 5.0-liter V8 lays down 1,600 horsepower and 1,106 pound-feet of torque, which plays a significant role in delivering that speed, but KoenigseggÂ’s engineers have given the car a lot more than mind-blowing power. The Jesko Absolut has a super-slippery 0.278 drag coefficient and a nine-speed transmission that shifts so quickly itÂ’s almost imperceptible. Koenigsegg calls it a Light Speed Transmission (LST), saying its shifts happen at almost light speed. While that might be a slight exaggeration, the gearbox is impressive, bringing several wet multi-disc clutches and a super lightweight construction. As Koenigsegg says, "the Jesko Absolut is destined to achieve higher, more extraordinary speeds than any Koenigsegg or any other fully homologated car before it." How expensive is the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut? If you were reading that and wondering how much the fastest car in the world costs, the price tag is just another dizzying number on the Jesko Absolut's spec sheet. All 125 Absolut cars offered sold out at a price of almost $3 million. Of course, being able to afford the Koenigsegg is just the first step in realizing its full potential. There are very few places on the map that can support a 300-plus-mph speed run, and the locations that do are not conveniently located.
