Hello out there in eBay land and welcome to my auction.  For those of you that follow my auctions you know that I have more than a few fantastic 914 in the last few years.  This one is no exception and my personal favorite.  This is a 1972 1.7 liter car with low actual miles and a perfectly documented history.  An Oregon 3 owner car including myself, I found this car as a total survivor.  Zero rust and all original.  Hell hole and battery tray intact.   Wearing all of its original paint too.  The underside of this Porsche is as dry as a bone.  The lines of undercoating you see on the bottom side is factory.  It has never been touched since.  It does indeed come with the hard Targa top and it is also in excellent shape.     

Unfortunately, the paint was pretty tired and as hard as I tried to save it and keep it original I finally decided that the car was nice enough to deserve a real complete paint job.  This is no easy task if you want the job to turn out right.  The car has to be stripped of all of its chrome and bumpers and parts so that the paint can be applied without tape lines and overspray.  It is really an undertaking.  This is before you get into the actual prepping and painting of the car.  We used the exact proper color mix from the Porsche code. (Light Ivory L80E)  We also used 2 coats of base color plus a clear coat.  It is a fantastic paint job.  The car was incredibly straight to begin with so very little filler was needed.  I have included before, during and after pictures as well in my listing.  Please call if you have questions about the paint, painter, or the process.

The secret to a good restoration, or in this case a mini restoration, is to start with a solid car.  Not only was this car solid to begin with it was, is, and has always been a great running and driving car.  It is tuned and tight.  It starts instantly every time without issue.  The gearbox is as good as any I have driven.  The clutch is strong.  Suspension, brakes, steering, all great.  I have a folder on the car FILLED with thousands of dollars’ worth of receipts from years of care.

The interior is all original and still very nice.  Almost perfect!  No holes cut in the door panels factory original radio too.  Yes a standard crack in the dash pad.

The tires are new.  The wheels are Mahle and very nice.  All the gages and lights work properly.  Wipers, gas gage, blinkers, radio, heat..  Everything.

There is a custom performance exhaust on the car and it is really nice, but I am including the original for the purists as well.  I hope the picture demonstrate how nice this car is.  It is as nice as these come and was a lot of work to complete.  The winner of this auction will be happy with this car.  Bid with confidence.

 This Scout II has a ton of vintage appeal and will surely be one to hold on to for future appreciation.  It is over 40 years old so if you are not used to a vehicle this old please call me and let me help you make an informed decision about a purchase and what ownership will be like. 

I am selling the 914 with a VERY LOW RESERVE and I know it will sell the first go around as long as we all play by these rules. 

#1.  Only bid if you have intentions to buy. 

#2. Ask any and all questions before bidding. 

#3. Please contact me BEFORE BIDDING if you have zero or negative feedback.

#4. This is an AS-IS sale.  I have done my best to describe it exactly as I see it but it has no warranties or guarantees.

#5. I will not accept Pay-Pal for the balance payment of the Porsche.  Pay-Pal is for the deposits only, the balance must be paid by certified check or wire.  Legitimate and legal buyers only please. 

Just be real and genuine and I will make sure that the winning bidder is happy with his or her purchase.  I have 100% positive feedback and I plan on keeping that.  Also, I will end the sale for the right offer so don’t wait till the last second and worry about missing out.  Just call me and we will work out a fair price..

I’m Justin my Phone number is 503-969-5127

Exotic cars caught on video racing on neighborhood streets in Beverly Hills

Thu, Sep 17 2015

A pair of supercars caught on camera racing around a quiet Beverly Hills neighborhood last week has residents fearing for their safety. The video shows a white Porsche 911 and a yellow Ferrari LaFerrari as they clipped parked cars and blew through stop signs while residents of the upscale community watched in horror. Freelance cameraman Jacob Rogers shot the video of the supercar shenanigans. He later confronted a man outside the house where the Ferrari eventually parked. He asked the man if he cared that he was endangering people's lives. The man became combative and claimed he had diplomatic immunity. "He told me verbatim, 'I could have you killed and get away with it,'" Rogers told NBC Los Angeles. "I told him, 'the press is allowed to be here on the sidewalk on a public street.' He said, '(Expletive) America' and threw a cigarette at me." The Ferrari's plates are from the oil-rich country of Qatar. The race ended with the Ferrari pulling into the driveway of a $45,000-per-month rental home, its engine compartment smoking. Police can be seen arriving in the neighborhood. Los Angeles police are currently investigating the incident. Even though the LaFerrari was still smoking when police arrived they haven't filed charges because no officer witnessed the illegal activities. When police approached the owner of the vehicle he denied doing anything illegal and again claimed diplomatic immunity. Police told NBC they are in contact with the State Department about the man's diplomatic status and the legality of the cars in the neighborhood. Beverly Hills isn't the only swanky zip code plague by hotshot supercar owners. Some of the most expensive homes in London can be found In the Knightsbridge neighborhood - and some of the most expensive cars as well. This summer, the local council of Knightsbridge and nearby Chelsea began exploring a Public Space Protection Order that would fine drivers who rev their engines, drag race on residential streets or blare music, according to Reuters UK.

Porsche prioritizes 200,000-unit sales target over exclusivity [w/poll]

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Would a Porsche still be a Porsche if it weren't as exclusive? That's the question which industry pundits are asking - and customers may soon as well - as the German automaker emerges from the fringe in pursuit of larger volumes.
A dozen years ago Porsche was barely selling over 50,000 units per annum. In a sales surge that has gathered pace as fast as a 911 Turbo, however, it was already hovering around the 100,000-unit mark a few years later. Last year it sold over 160,000, and has targeted 200,000 units by 2018. But it may not even take that long.
Automotive News reports that Porsche has advanced its targets to reach for 200,000 units by the end of this year or the next. The bump in sales would be driven particularly by the introduction of the new Macan, of which it aims to sell 50,000 units annually, starting next year. The Cayenne currently stands far and away as its most successful model. The 911 and Panamera have swapped second place a few times over the past five years, followed by the Boxster and Cayman.
