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..

Porsche Exclusive showcases custom-order 911 Turbo Cabrio

Sun, 06 Apr 2014

Porsche is one of the most profitable automakers in the business. In fact, it's said to make about $23,000 on each car it sells, thanks in no small part to an options list that can send the sticker price accelerating quicker than one of its own sports cars. But there are always those for whom even the extensive option list won't be enough, and for just such customers, there is Porsche Exclusive.
The division in Zuffenhausen is tasked with creating even more individualized examples of Porsche vehicles, and it recently did up this 911 Turbo Cabriolet - which, at $160,700, is already one of the most expensive Porsches you can order this side of a 918 Spyder: more than any Boxster, Cayman, Macan or Cayenne, any Panamera other than a Turbo S or Executive - not to mention any other 911 short of a Turbo S.
This particular demo vehicle features a Slate Grey paint job and red interior decked out in more leather than an S&M dungeon - which, come to think of it, would probably be less financially painful than ordering up this car from Porsche Exclusive.

See what the Chevy C7 ZR1 may be benchmarked against

Tue, 07 May 2013

One of the greatest things every Corvette has had going for it, and also one of the most re-used arguments against it, is its price-to-performance equation - long before the Nissan GT-R became the de facto Porsche 911 comparator the Corvette spent decades as Exhibit A. Depending on which side of the argument you stressed, supporters crowed about how much performance you got for how (comparatively) little, detractors carped on how little you got everywhere else in the bargain.
It appears Chevrolet is working as hard as ever to render the argument meaningless. Spy shooters at KGP captured a convocation of European birds of prey leaving the General Motors test center, and aimed at benchmarking the C7 Corvette ZR1. The road train comprised of two C7 Corvette Stingrays, a 2013 Corvette ZR1, McLaren MP4-12C, Ferrari 458 Italia, Audi R8 V10 Spyder and Porsche 911 Carrera S and it was last seen heading down the same kinked-up back roads used to hone the Corvette Stingray.
The C7-series ZR1 and its possible 700 horsepower are still a ways off. If it really is being positioned to compete with the celestial exotica in the testing group, could it be the first Corvette to regularly be the first answer to the question "Cost no object, which would would you rather have?"

Porsche slathers Martini livery on 911, Panamera, Macan and Cayenne

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

This is how we imagine the conversation went in Porsche's Stuttgart headquarters: "Martini livery. Martini livery all the things." Okay, so maybe not, but that hasn't stopped Porsche from showing off images of its entire lineup bearing the iconic racing livery.
While we aren't sure about the questionably yellow 911 and lime green Macan, the navy blue Cayenne and the white Panamera both look pretty spectacular as they lap about the streets of Sochi, Russia.
As for why the liveried sports cars and crossovers were at the site of the 2014 Winter Olympics, we aren't totally sure. Porsche's Facebook page, where the images first popped up, was really light on details. Whatever the reason, we fully support Porsche doing more with Martini livery. Take a look at the full gallery to see what we mean.
