On Jan-07-14 at 14:21:17 PST, seller added the following information: Sadly the time has come to sell some of my cars. Reason for sale is a 2 year old and simply not enough time, and in the case of this car not enough room for a baby seat. I have owned this car for nearly 5 years and held on last year to join the 50th Birthday celebrations. As with every purchase, I bought the best I could. This car was purchased from a Toronto collector. At that time he supplied a vehicle appraisal from April 2005 (Hogtown Old Cars, Toronto) with value at $15,700. That appraisal is available scanned via e-mail and will come with the car as part of it's history. During my ownership it has only been used on dry Summer days and stored in a heated environment during the Winter. I have been fortunate enough to race against big brother 911's so appreciate the timeless lines, most often whilst passing me. Being a '67 the lines are not spoiled by mandated side reflectors. The exterior of the car is of sound quality. The paint has some crazing/cracks but these have not advanced during my ownership. They are on the bonnet and pictured on left rear fender. There is no evidence of rust and underneath the car is solid with no welding/repairs. Under arches are clean. The chromework is bright. On a negative side there is an abcence of 912 badging (maybe a 911 wannabe) and the front chrome intakes have been machined to take spot lamps. The car starts with ease, pulls well in all gears, stops as it should with discs on all corners, period alloys wearing matching Dunlop rubber (approx 6mm tread left). There is a slight oil weep, I beleive from the lower sump (? retorque/new gasket) but never enough to worry me or my mechanic. The interior is in good condition with a small dime sized wear patch on the driver's bolster. Gauges are of the 'green' variety and working. The headlining is good with one small stain. Negatives to the interior are period speakers. I have exposed the wiring to show how easily these would remove. There is an Alpine CD player, again not in character with the car. Bonnet, boot (hood, trunk) and filler caps open easily. Please request any further car pictures. I would also welcome any inspection. You are bidding on a fast appreciating classic in the region of $20's-30's k. Please prompt payment of deposit and balance. I am aware that car haulage companies wait for orders to fill before giving a date so will give one months grace. Therafter $50 per week for indoor heated storage. This is a penny auction, no reserve, not to be ended early. |

2014 Porsche Cayman S
Tue, 19 Feb 2013A Blue-Blooded Valentine
I need you to understand what it's like to drive this car. I'm not talking about your ability to comprehend the words on this page or process the figures that surround the 2014 Porsche Cayman S, but rather what it feels like to take control of a car conceived, designed, engineered and manufactured to set your prefrontal cortex alight with all the glee a Zippo typically reserves for pine needles marinated in jet fuel. From the instant you put your tail in the driver's seat, the Cayman sets about impregnating your veins with a full and varied spectrum of ludicrous emotion. It's not like taking the family pickup to market, I can tell you that much.
For 2014, the next-generation Cayman features many of the same styling tweaks first displayed on the coupe's drop-top cousin, the Boxster, though a spate of mechanical changes, more power, less weight and better efficiency join the party to further differentiate this model from its predecessor. And while additions like rev-matched downshifts and electronic power steering help push the Cayman into a new era, one fact remains unchanged: This is one of the best driving cars on the market. Period. Bear with me and I'll try to explain exactly why that is.
How Porsche got Patrick Dempsey into the driver's seat for Le Mans
Tue, 27 Aug 2013How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice. Ask Patrick Dempsey and he'll likely tell you the same secret for landing a role on a hit TV show or, for that matter, driving a Porsche in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
That's because, like McQueen and Newman, Dempsey has earned his place in that rarified field of actors who also race. He's competed in Baja and Grand-Am, co-owns an IndyCar team, and this year returned to Le Mans where he and his teammates Joe Foster and Patrick Long finished fourth in the GTE-Am class behind the wheel of their Porsche 911 RSR.
It's a grueling race, and the fluid transition between drivers behind the wheel is a key element to success. Check out the satirical video below to see how Dempsey and company got ready.
World's largest toy car collection is in Beirut, and it's remarkable
Fri, Jan 31 2014It's common for auto enthusiasts to have a few miniatures of their favorite cars around their home or office. They provide a respite of happiness knowing that if you can't have the real things, at least you can look at them in miniature. However, Billy Karam of Beirut, Lebanon, has taken collecting toy cars to its extreme. His collection of over 30,000 model cars and 400 dioramas is certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest collection of car toys. "You cannot buy the big ones, so you buy a thousand of the small ones instead," says Karam in the video. Karam is a former amateur racing driver with a weakness for all things Porsche, and many of his dioramas depict races that he drove in or attended. Looking at them gives him a chance to relive the experiences again, but unlike a photo or video, they are right there in three dimensions. Scroll down to watch this astounding Cool Hunting video narrated by the collection's captivating owner. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
