Up for auction in my 1976 PORSCHE 912e. This car was a part of my 52 car collection of vintage air cooled Porsche's and vintage Volkswagens, this is the very last air cooled German car left in the collection to be sold.I am a long time member in good standing with the Porsche Club of America (PCA) and I have a great reputation in the industry. The car was found and purchased for me by a Southern California auto broker in 2009 and was delivered to me at my home in Durango Colorado on 11/4/2009. The auto broker that purchased the car for me has located and purchased many cars for me over the years and he knows my high standards for purchases. The cars I buy have to be rust free, wreck free and as original as possible and this Porsche 912e met all those guidelines. When I purchased the car it had a very low 133,559 original miles on the odometer and the car now has only 133,855 original miles on the odometer.This is the last car to be sold because I purchased this car for my wife. She dearly loves the car but she never drives it and we are at a point in ours lives where we have two kids in college and our third child is going to need a first car soon so we are selling this car to purchase a new truck for our Son. The Porsche 912e is a very rare car with only 2099 of these cars ever being built and only for the North American market . Out of that 2099 only 500 had sunroofs and only 500 had air conditioning. This car originally had an air conditioner (making this car one of the really rare examples) and the air conditioner pump is still on the car but the controls and vents that were mounted under the dash of the car have been removed by the previous owner. My broker has tried to get this piece from the previous owner several times over the years but has had no luck (this piece is a very common part and is readily available). The 912e is a 911 in every aspect with the exception of 14' Fuchs wheels instead if the 15' that the 911. The 912e gets smaller brakes and the Boxer style four cylinder motor that was derived from the Porsche 356. The 912e was the last four cylinder rear engine car that Porsche ever built. The 912e is much lighter than the 911 and is considered by many top collectors to be the best drivers car Porsche ever produced. The Boxer style motor has been proven over and over through time to be the most reliable and "bullet-proof" motor ever produced by Porsche. Although Volkswagen was heavily involved with Porsche in 1976 the motor in the 912e is all Porsche. The 912e has great fuel economy and the motor in very powerful, it is coupled with a smooth shifting 5 speed transmission. The 912e has a fuel range of 600 miles per tank of gas and it is very inexpensive to run and maintain. Porsche has alway overbuilt their cars and the 912e is no exception. I STRONGLY recommend that you look at Porsche912e.com for a better history and details on this fine automobile. Being very picky as a buyer I purchased this car for my wife knowing that the car is a solid investment quality automobile. This Porsche 912e is a factory yellow car with black vinyl interior, the paint is mostly original but the doors have been painted probably sometime in the '80's and the paint is in really good condition. The interior is completely stock (with the exception of a aftermarket radio that does not work). The only flaws on the interior is a split seam on the passenger seat which is easily repairable and there is one crack on the original dash on the passenger side. The VIN # on this car is 9126001261 making this car the #1261 car to roll off the production line. This car is a very original, complete, well sorted and well maintained numbers matching automobile and it is an original California Blue Plate Car (Blue Plate comes with the car) that has been garaged/ warehoused it's entire life in Southern California and more recently Central Texas. This 912e has to be one of the best original/survivor 912e's in the world, it starts, runs, shifts, drives and stops very well and I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere at any distance. The car sounds, feels, smells and like only a Porsche can and it still has that "PING" sound when you shut the doors (Porsche owners will know what I mean). All the gaps are great and it retains all of it's factory glass. 912e's are coming into the realm of being highly sought after collector cars that are gaining tremendously (and quickly) in value, prices on #1 and #2 condition 912e's have doubled since 2010 and that fact makes it a good time for me to sell the car. This is an opportunity for someone to buy this car at a good price and sit back and watch the car appreciate in value with very little maintenance cost. DON'T PASS THIS CAR UP BECAUSE YOU WILL REGRET IT. This car will drive anywhere and this is a car that you can fly in and drive it home however there are no warranties or guarantees expressed or implied. Outside inspections are welcomed by appointment only and the deposit is non-refundable. Please take a look at my feedback when considering the purchase of this automobile. Bid with confidence and bid to win this beautiful 1976 porsche 912e. Thank you for taking the time to look at my auction and as always HAPPY MOTORING.

Almost two years ago we wrote about the 12-Gauge Garage Jack Olsen built to house his multifarious Porsche 911 - its 1972 bodywork hides four decades of Porsche parts, like the transaxle from a 1977 911 and the engine from 1995 911, for example. It weighs 2,400 pounds and has 272 horsepower, and Olsen uses it daily driving and for track days, the latter excursions featuring homemade, bolt-on aero parts. German magazine Auto Bild stopped by Olsen's house to look in on the Porsche called "Black Beauty II," and we get a few more details about the mods he's made, like swapping out for fiberglass body panels and welding Fuchs wheel centers to wider Corvette barrels so he could run different tires. Most importantly, though, Olsen divulges his passion for lowering his lap time at Willow Springs. Randy Pobst set the lap record for a production car around the 2.5-mile Big Willow track in a Porsche 918 Spyder at 1:23.54 during a Motor Trend test (the outright record, according to Willow Springs, is held by Michael Andretti at 1:06.050 in a CART car). Further down the list, Steve Millen drove a 415-hp 911 GT3 RS around the same track in 1:33.14 - a car 600 pounds heavier than Olsen's. Over the past 14 years of tinkering with his car, Olsen says his data shows his lap time is now down to 1:26.88, achieved on the day of filming the Auto Bild video. That time would put him in between the 1:26 flat posted by Dominik Farnbacher in a 608-hp Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR and the 1:28.93 put up by Pobst in a 400-hp, 991-series 911. You can hear Olsen tell it in his own words in the video.

The Turbo may be the most powerful model in the Cayenne range, but the GTS is arguably the enthusiast's choice. (In so far as a 4,500-pound crossover can be considered an "enthusiast's choice," anyway.) And now, after refreshing the rest of the Cayenne lineup, Porsche has revealed the new Cayenne GTS, alongside its new 911 GTS stablemate, here at the LA Auto Show. Like the new Cayenne S, the new GTS drops the previous version's atmospheric V8 for a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6, but ups the output to 440 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque to propel Zuffenhausen's portliest to 62 in a scant 5.2 seconds. Alongside the power upgrade, the GTS gets a lowered air suspension and sportier exhaust, the beefier brakes from the Cayenne Turbo and an upgraded aero kit to help with the whole barn-door-profile thing. Just don't expect all that extra kit and the prestige of a Porsche badge on your crossover to come cheap, with prices starting at $95,500 (plus $995 destination).
