2007 Porsche 911 Carrera S on 2040-cars
Creedmoor, North Carolina, United States
Car has been garage kept every day of its life by prior owner and me The original owner custom ordered this car in rare midnight blue metallic and took European delivery. I have every maintenance record in this car’s history from both the prior owner’s and my ownership history (surprisingly most examples out there won’t have this back to day 1). Additionally, I have the original purchase sticker ($92,455) and euro delivery paperwork. In addition to normal maintenance, in November of 2014, I spent a little over $2,500 on proactive replacement of the water pump, thermostat, serpentine belt and spark plugs along with a brake fluid and coolant flush and additionally had the lower oil pan dropped and inspected for any metallic debris (it was clean). I am a firm believer in staying ahead of maintenance on a car like this and all of this was done purely as a proactive measure due to age rather than waiting for stated mileage thresholds or anything demonstrating failure. My mechanic described my car to me as having 5 years of runway before any significant maintenance items will be necessary again – just oil changes in the interim.

Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Here's your tough question of the day: Would you rather drive a new Porsche Cayman GTS or a slightly older, 996-era Porsche 911 GT3? Certainly, both cars have their plusses. The Cayman is the more modern proposition, sure, but the GT3 is, well, a GT3. So yes, it's a tough decision.
If you're one of the lucky souls that have to make that choice, then this video from Evo should prove pretty helpful. It's a track battle, starring Jethro Bovingdon with a new GTS and an old GT3.
Calling the GTS "fantastically agile" and "fast, but it's also hilariously good fun," Bovingdon bangs home a solid lap time of 1:05.2 before switching to the GT3. It's remarkable to see just how dated the 996-generation 911 looks after viewing the newer Porsche, and from where we sit, it's further proof that the old car's headlights are something that's best forgotten. Styling qualms aside, though, can the GT3 keep up with its racy younger cousin?
Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
