This black plate CA car was shipped to VA about 7 years ago.  I bought It from a friend who had no time to work on it.  The floor was rusted but this was all the rust that was on the car other than some very minor surface rust up front.  A new factory correct floor was welded in.  This car is 100% solid!  The left fender has a darker shade of grey (must have had a fender/bender).  During shipment from CA the roof on the pass side behind the windshield suffered a small pingpong ball dent as it must have hit the transporter.  This has been fixed but the paint is darker than the original.  There are a few nicks in the paint and just a couple minor dings (very small) but the body is in very good shape. I believe the mileage to be original but don't have proof.  The car runs and drives well.  The 5 speed tranny shifts well.  The webers were rebuilt, brake calipers rebuilt, new brake hoses, new carpet, new door beltlines and window frame  seals including vent windows, valves adjusted, engine tuned up etc.  The clutch is likely the original but it doesn't slip so I have not replaced it.  This car is a beautiful driver that needs just a little more TLC or could be restored to showroom condition without much cost. The hazard blinkers stopped working (I saw them die as they were on) and I am pretty sure it is the flasher unit.  Also the horn button does not make contact with ground, other wise the horn system works.  I did not want to risk breaking the horn button getting it off, its stubborn.  The radio delete plate can easily be unbolted to install your radio.  Correct spare included (not shown).  I have run out of time to completely finish the light resto I was doing on this car.   My son starts college in a couple weeks and we could use the money.  I hate to sell it!

Chris Harris hits the track in the Porsche 911 GT3 RS

Sat, May 23 2015

One of the wonderful things about Chris Harris on Cars is the enthusiasm that the host brings to the screen. Granted, it would be hard not to enjoy a day driving around in a supercar that you don't own. Still, Harris brings a sense that he knows how rare these opportunities are and relishes them. In his latest look at the two sides of the latest Porsche 911 GT3 RS, you can tell this guy is having a lot of fun. The GT3 RS is a 500-horsepower, track-focused weapon, but it's expected to drive to and away from the circuit after a day of laps. Therefore, Harris decides to evaluate the attributes of this Porsche in both environments. On the road, he sweeps an orange example over some beautifully, undulating German backroads but keeps things rather tidy. However, in the latter half of the video, he arrives at the Weissach test track for a go in a purple RS. There, he really lets the rear hang out.

Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."

Leno, Seinfeld and a Porsche 356/2 featured in latest CICGC

Sun, 19 Jan 2014

In the latest kaffeeklatsch known as Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, Jerry Seinfeld pulls Jay Leno out of his garage for a trip to Jones Coffee in Pasadena, CA. The NBC funnyman we've lately seen driving two guest Porsches in his eponymous garage this time takes the passenger seat in a 1949 Porsche 356/2, one of early all-aluminum, hand-built coupes - still in 100-percent original condition - built in Gmund, Austria and nicknamed "Gmunds."
The comedy veterans have known one another for 35 years, so the episode is rich with stories of The Good Old Days. Leno says it is also the first time he's ever had a cup of coffee, and for obvious comedic reasons they start with the civet-stained beans made famous in The Bucket List. You can watch Leno take his first sip below, and have you haven't heard the joke about the goat and the anvil, scroll on down for a listen to that and one or two more jokes besides.
