2016 PORSCHE Carrera 4 GTS. It has never been tracked, has never been driven in the rain, and has never even been parked outside overnight. Has only been driven very occasionally, very carefully, and only under ideal conditions. It has a clear bra protective wrap on the entire front end, including the mirrors, doors, and even the plastic panels fore and aft of the glass sunroof. It also has the latest 3M self healing protective wrap on the windshield, which filters out all the harmful UV Rays without using any dark colored tinting which reduces visibility and would tend to attract the attention of the police. I have also just had the oil changed, as PORSCHE recommends doing so after one year, even if the breakin miles have not yet been completed.
The exterior of the car is PORSCHE Agate Grey, and the interior is black leather with guards red seat belts. It
has the 14-way adjustable seats which, in my view, are the most comfortable offered. The front seats are also both
heated and ventilated. Which means the cool air from the air conditioning can be made to blow through the
perforations in the leather, directly onto your back on a hot summers day.
Like most GTS's, it also has black center locking high performance spoked wheels. And even more importantly, is
powered by the last of the 3.8 liter naturally aspirated flat six engines with the extra horse power kit. The
extra horsepower kit adds another 30 horses, and would have cost an extra 17k if ordered separately on a standard
911 Carrera S.
As a side note, the new GTS's now come with a 3.0 liter turbo charged engine. This 2016 then, was the very last of
the heavy horsepower naturally aspirated 3.8 liter GTS packages you could have ordered. So, if you always wanted
one but failed to get your order in before they quit making them, this is your best chance. It is absolutely brand
new and is tons of fun to drive. I've never driven a more throttle responsive car in my life.

Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.
Porsche 960 could come with quad-turbo flat-eight engine
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Getting a bead on the target that is the so-called Porsche 960 is not easy, as the target keeps moving. First labeled the 960, then the 961, and now back to being called the 960, it is Porsche's take on a supercar specifically aimed at Ferrari - the latest report in Automobile says that Porsche's internal moniker for it is "FeFi," which stands for "Ferrari Fighter." Because it is expected to cost as much as the top-tier V12 Ferrari, Porsche wants the engine solution to justify the price tag. That means, according to author Georg Kacher, a 3.9-liter, quad-turbo flat-eight engine with 650 horsepower.
Last summer, the engine was mooted to be a twin-turbo flat six. A few months later, the rumor was that it would use the 4.6-liter V8 from the 918 and have about 570 horsepower. This new mid-engine configuration would be quite the leap, giving the 960 more power than the 918 Spyder (pictured) and 911 GT2 RS, and utilize other tech features like four adjustable camshafts and "a complex multistage intake manifold." In this scenario, power would be run through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive.
Build materials are still slated to be a hodgepodge of materials including aluminum, steel, carbon fiber, titanium and magnesium. The boosted flat-eight, all-wheel drive and a 3,000-pound weight could get the 960 from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds. Since it is looking squarely at Ferrari, the idea that the 960 will be a "four-door coupe" can probably be put to rest. For now.
VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
