Original six, VIN 9140430933 with certificate of authenticity. Number 933 out of 3333 6 cylinder models made. Prefix on the title is 3. I know the 2 prior owners and have a pretty good idea what's been done to the car before i got the car. Car was repainted black in early nineties. At that time the rear fenders were cut, metal added and rewelded for a nice soft flare look while retaining the original lip. Original color was # 15, Irish (Forest) green. At the same time the engine was swapped to a 2.4 (as per # on engine case). Engine runs strong! Started right up this morning!
The good: Car runs like a raped ape! When I first got the car in 2005, i dropped the engine and transaxle to replace clutch and flywheel, adjust valves and redo carbs. I have pictures of the engine/transaxle removal. In addition, I have a receipt for over $10,000 of work from 2007. The minor rust issues were taken care of professionally by Powertech, a reputable Porsche Repair shop in North Jersey. Rust repairs included the driver side wheel well, right side rear frame area in engine compartment (under original battery pan area), and partial floor pan replaced. Link to chassis pictures below. It looks as good or better underneath then on top! At the same time I had the engine resealed, new style (bronze?) cam tensioner bushings installed, and leakdown tested (test results will be provided with car, results are; one cylinder had 3% leakage and the rest were 1 or 2 % leakage.) New carpet and driver side seat cover was installed at that time. Carrera front end with new Porterfield pads and new rotors in the summer of 2008. New stainless brake lines, new hard lines as well. Car has fresh as of 2008 Koni yellows in the rear with 165 progressive springs. Also a Rennshift shifter, original transaxle converted to sideshift, bronze bushing in shifter console and shifts pretty decent for 1970 technology. I have original shifter and knob with the throttle linkage that goes with the package. Comes with 2 sets of fake fuchs, 15x7 and 15x8, one set has low mileage kumho asx tires while the other set has Hoosier A6's from 2008 with 0 runs on them. Battery mounted in front trunk, front mount oil cooler with stainless lines from engine, tilton brake bias valve, Electromotive crankfire ignition, K&N airfilters, battery cutoff, bolt in roll cage with camera mount (Note some pieces of roll bar are not mounted now, namely the two door bars and the top front bar), OMP seats mounted on original sliders (pass side too), 4 pt. harnesses, Sony Cd/mp3 player with powered subwoofer mounted behind passenger seat, weltmeister front bar, weltmeister rear bar (not installed), extra street pads, new hp plus front pads, uninstalled aluminum upper rear shock mounts (Brad's), front tow bar mount and tow bar are included. Wipers work, headlights work, brake lights work, reverse lights work, interior lights work. Included are the original shifter including the hand throttle plus extra head light motors, accelerator cable mount, rear caliper parts, steering parts, clutch cable, and so on. Please see the pictures. Also included with the sale is a folder and note book of pertinent info such as engine #, Strut #. air gap for ignition, copy of prior title, etc. etc. The bad, Non original tach, combo gauge, and gas gauge. No heat due to headers. Defroster does not work (note, light comes on but no fan). Shifting too fast from first to second will cause a slight grinding noise. Could be a linkage adjustment. Under normal shifting, no grinding when shifting any gears. Small superficial rust spots can be seen on the bottom side of trunk pan. See the chassis picture link below. Paint is not that great. Shines nice when waxed but still see some scratches and small indentations. There is some hazing in the paint on both doors from when I left the magnetic numbers on after being in 95 degree heat at an autocross, then getting caught in a rainstorm afterward and leaving the numbers on the car for a week. Hood and trunk (Mostly trunk) have some indentations agout the size of a dime. There are a few little spots just below drivers side sail panel where the paint is bubbling that may be rust. On the front passenger fender, there is a small spot where the paint peeled off. The rest of the car has some minor scratches as well, but overall, the car shows pretty good when detailed . Not too bad looking for a 24 year old paint job on a 44 year old car. Also, the headliner (yes it's still there!) has an indentation from the roll bar going from left to right, the targa top has two small dings on the rear (see picture), the front left parking light is cracked and there are light scratches on the front left fender and the rear right side of the trunk lid. The scratches buff out with a machine and a filler type wax. i looked over this car to the best of my ability however, there may be other really light scratches and imperfections on the car that i did not notice. Please remember this is not a minty cream puff but a good looking, extremely solid example of a rare classic from 1970. I will make myself available for the buyers choice of a car pick up service after the payment is cleared with my bank. Here is a link to many pictures on flickr. If the link does not work, please message me and I will email you the link. Please ask questions before you make your offer as you are entering a binding contract when you offer. I may just take your offer as long as it's not ridiculously low! Please have the funds ready before you make your offer!! If you have any comments about my pricing other than an offer, please use one of the 914 forums to discuss that. Here is not the place for that. Upon offer acceptance, I require a deposit of $500.00 via paypal with balance due within seven (7) days by bank check, wire transfer, or cash. Car will be released AFTER, and only after the funds clear in my bank. Thank you for looking.

Nick Murray's problematic Porsche 911 shows the power of a viral video
Fri, 18 Apr 2014When Nick Murray took delivery of his 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera S in June 2013, he had saved for it for the past five years. He didn't just pluck a random 911 off a dealer lot. He specially ordered his car with thousands of dollars in extras tailored just to him, and he captured all of the options on his YouTube channel. The love affair didn't last long. Eventually the channel became a place for Nick to air his growing list of grievances about his deteriorating 911. Eventually, his mix of righteous indignation and sarcasm went viral.
By late December, he had already had four warranty repairs done on the car. Things got much worse in March. The computers began resetting whenever Nick drove over large bumps. There was also an acrid, electrical smell that occasionally permeated the cabin. Murray filed for Lemon Law protection. Porsche Cars North America contacted him for the first time to fix the problem, but it didn't help.
Things culminated in April when Murray put up a new video that showed more troubles. He began arbitration with Porsche and asked for either his full purchase price back or an exact replacement. The company countered with a portion of what the car was worth, based on its mileage. Murray refused and turned to his YouTube watchers for help. He asked them to spread the word, and the video went viral with over 800,000 views as of this writing. Supporters posted it multiple times on Porsche's Facebook and Twitter sites.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.
2020 Porsche 911 Speedster spied with an angry driver
Wed, Feb 13 2019Porsche gave us details and showed us a concept of the 911 Speedster at the Paris Motor Show. Today, we bring you spy shots of what appears to be the production version of that concept with a few changes on board. They're rather minimal modifications, but the Speedster's driver appears especially angry with our spy photographer as he extends his middle finger directly toward the camera. Sorry, not sorry, Mr. Test Driver. Public testing of pre-production cars always comes with photo risks, and Porsches tend to attract more attention than others. You'll notice what appears to be a Cayenne Coupe prototype we've previously spotted running around with the 911. The Speedster Concept we saw in Paris had epic retro mirrors and fuel cap on the front hood, but both those design touches are absent from this pre-production car. It's tougher to see, but we lost the vents in between the two humps, as well. Everything else appears to have made it to production-spec. We can't say we're surprised these concept car features probably won't show up on the production car, but it is a tad deflating. You'll notice the Speedster is based-off the 991.2 generation of 911 and not the new 992. Porsche did a similar thing when the 997 generation was coming to an end with a Speedster model paying tribute to that car's life. The chassis is said to utilize parts from the 911 GT3, and the wonderful naturally aspirated flat-six engine gets carried over from that car, too. Porsche didn't specify if power will be exactly the same as the GT3, but we'll be expecting about 500 horsepower and a 9,000 rpm redline. We were told the six-speed manual would be offered on the Speedster in Paris, too. Let's just say that we strongly approve of that combination. Production will be limited to only 1,948 cars and begin in the first half of this year. We'll expect a reveal with a full spec breakdown soon, possibly for the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.
