This is a pretty original car resprayed in factory color Tangerine (6809), I am the 3rd register owner I was told by PO that the original owner had owned the car since late 2012 until he passed away. I can verify until 2010 (old registration with name matching the original maintenance manual (pic showing) , 133k miles matching number car, COA in hand to verify. interior in nice condition, slight wear on lower bolster on driver seat, carpet must be newer as it is in great shape, all electronics work except original stereo which is not hooked up and I have not verified if working condition but it does match the COA as a upgrade Becker Europa (clock works but on its own time). Motor has good power but does smoke a bit and typical small drops of oil, it does have Weber Carbs and will backfire periodically on down shift I think its just the idler jets but I haven't check it doesn't happen often,I have been waiting to get in with Benton Performance to check. I am comfortable to drive any distance (took a couple hundred mile drive last weekend. Paint has small chips all over but honestly I had no plans to fix it just looks used shines well, body in nice shape only issues is lower front under bumper appears to have run up on curb and is bent a bit ,back license plate metal has some small dings and deck lid small dent otherwise no signs of accidents. The car is currently registered and still sports its original black plates, car has been in california it whole life. PO put a bottle jack through passenger floor you wouldn't know it from inside not a big deal I put a little clear silicone on it just to keep weather out. Only spot I could see any signs of rust is smaller then pencil eraser under rear window otherwise none.. Has original Fuchs I am told late 60s but I have not checked date stamps (not original to car as COA shows chrome steelies) new tires ,glass is original stamped Sekurit front windshield in Sigla stamped from west Germany no chips or cracks,headliner great, PO mention that the pan under the tank was replaced but it was done so well I couldn't tell.

This man literally loves a Porsche [NSFW]
Mon, May 11 2015Think you know what "auto erotic" means? Think again. Because one man in Thailand has redefined the term. Caught on security camera footage this guy lurks into a garage, looks over both shoulders, evidently misses the camera, drops trou and has his way with a Porsche Boxster. When the tailpipe proved too hot (or otherwise inhospitable), he moves up to the radiator grille and – ahem – finishes up there. Sadly this isn't even the first time we've come across this particular perversion. We'd urge caution before viewing the video, not only because it's not suitable for a workplace environment, but because once you see it, you're bound to repeatedly blurt out, "Why, man!? Why?"
Porsche recalls new 911 models over exhaust pipe issues
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Porsche, though the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, announced a voluntary recall on about 2,200 911 Carrera and Carrera 4 models built during the 2012 and 2013 model years. On cars equipped with the standard exhaust system it was found that the tailpipes could separate from the mufflers and become dangerous road debris; models that added the optional sport exhaust system are not included in this recall.
Affected vehicles were built between March and November of last year, but there have been no reports of the problem on any customer-owned vehicles. Porsche first noticed a cracked tailpipe weld on a test vehicle back in May, and since then has found similar problems on other internally owned vehicles, all with more than 25,000 miles on the clock. To fix the problem, dealers will be replacing the mufflers. Scroll down to read the official notice.
Porsche 911 Cabriolet refresh may hide new engine
Wed, 22 Jan 2014If we learned nothing else from our recent frolic through Porsche's secret museum, it's that the automaker goes to incredible lengths to disguise future products during initial testing. Just as a number of cars in that Stuttgart bunker hid the true identity of developmental mules (like the Audi-V8-powered 911), such could very well be the case with these spy shots showing what, on the surface, appears to be simply a facelifted 991 911 Cabriolet.
Similar to what we saw last month on a 911 coupe, this Cabriolet has obvious styling modifications made to the front and rear fascias suggesting that the 911's still-fresh appearance is already set to get a few tweaks. The big news here is at the rear of the car. The additional vents on the lower edge of the fascia and the mocked-up vent above the engine leads our spy photographer to believe that a new engine could be tucked under the body work - likely a smaller-displacement, turbocharged flat-six focusing more on improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions rather than performance.
We last heard rumblings of such a detuned 911 back in August, but could this be our first look at said new model? Have a look for yourself, and let us know what you think - either about this mule specifically or the idea of a "green" 911, in Comments below.
