1972 Porsche 914 Targa

Here is a chance to own a classic Porsche 914.  Classic Porsches are one of the fastest appreciating vehicles today.  This 914 is a great driver for someone that is looking for a nice weekend toy.  This car was a trade in at another dealership who called us due to the fact that we are known as vintage Porsche fanatics. The paint appears fairly fresh and has just been thoroughly detailed and polished.  The prior owner repaired the "hell hole" area, (minor repair) and relocated the battery to the trunk, which you can see in the photos.  Also a Weber carburetor and intake were recently installed.  It starts right up with the first push of the button and idles very smoothly.  The headlights, turn signals, and brake lights work properly.  The seals for the top are in very good shape.  All the interior is in excellent condition.  Seats do not have any tears and drivers seat slides properly.  The dash is in good shape, the basket weave material on the dash is original and in nice condition. The door panels are in very good condition.  914's have issues with the door handles, but these seem to have been replaced and work as they should.  One thing that we noticed is that the rear lock cylinder is missing for the trunk, but it still opens and latches fine.  The front bonnet had a external release installed in the grill that works much better than the original.  Driving this 914 is fun and rewarding.  The sport exhaust system has a great rumble, so you can hear yourself going through the gears.  As with most older Porsches the shifting is a bit vague because of the long shift linkage, but this is the side shift setup.  The engine is a 1.7, and was rebuilt GEX at some time as noted by the GEX markings on the case.  GEX has a great reputation and this motor shows it. It does run very strong and does not leak or blow any smoke.  The chassis has no rust showing, and all the suspension pick ups are in great condition.  It does seem to have some repair work in the front pan, it appears to have been done many years ago and is aging well.  The alignment is good and the car tracks straight down the road. Also the brakes have been rebuilt some time ago, so it stops like a proper 914 does.  While this is not a show car(although the prior owner did enter it in local shows), it is an excellent and enjoyable 914, and is way better than most out there for sale.  These cars are getting hard to find, and the money spent on this one is a good investment.  Please call us for details, we are happy to answer any questions on it.  Inspections are welcome prior to the end of the auction.

Porsche 911 Aerodynamic prototype cheated the wind ahead of its time

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

You might think that sports cars would have the lowest drag coefficient of all cars. And yes, they do tend to be more slippery than, say, SUVs or convertibles, but the sleekest vehicles on the road tend to be EVs, hybrids and luxury sedans. Sports cars, on the other hand, have aerodynamically detrimental needs for downforce and additional engine cooling. Still, the Porsche 911 is better than most, and has only gotten more so over the years. Its relatively narrow track and compact form mean it has a smaller frontal area than some other sports cars, and the gradual sweeping back of its headlights and windshield have only augmented its capacity for cheating the wind.
This 911 prototype, however, is even more aerodynamic than most. It's based on a "G model" 911 from 1984, but employed such features as covered wheels, a new rear spoiler and a reprofiled front end to drop its drag coefficient from 0.40 to 0.27, making it as slippery as a modern sedan and better at cheating the wind than just about anything built up to that point, save for maybe the Tatra 77, Citroën SM or Tucker Torpedo.
Elements of this prototype ended up gradually making it into production Porsches for years to come, and you can clearly see early influences on the second-generation 964 and even on the 959. It's featured here as the latest installment in a video series on rare historic Porsches unearthed from the company archives, following previous clips that featured a rare V8-powered 911 and a mid-engined 911 prototype. Scope out the latest episode in the video below.

Mark Webber treats Maria Sharapova to a Porsche 918 Spyder joyride

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

We don't much like Mark Webber right now. Part of being a racing driver is dealing with promotional stuff. It's not hard to find a driver that can't stand all this nonsense, whether it be promoting a product, meeting investors or attending some obscure event. Even a driver of Webber's caliber - a former Formula One driver for Red Bull Racing and a member of Porsche's factory Le Mans team - has to serve his time at the promo events.
Somehow, though, we don't think the Aussie driver minds this particular promo detail. In the video below, Webber attends the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix in Stuttgart. He then takes tennis superstar Maria Sharapova out for a spin behind the wheel of the Porsche 918 Spyder. The level of jealousy at the Autoblog office is palpable.
Take a look below for the video. And as we're super jealous of Mr. Webber, hop into Comments and caption the above photo based on what you think he's saying to Maria. Bonus points if you can work "vegemite" into the caption.

Singer Porsche, Koenigsegg, NSX: Leno's life doesn't suck

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Jay Leno had quite a productive trip this year during Monterey Car Week. Not only did he get to pal around with Ian Callum and check out the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, but the denim-clad comedian also headed to The Quail to talk to some prominent figures in the modern sports car scene. Capping off the fun, he got to take a drive in a Mercedes-AMG GT S, too Perhaps the highlight of this show is a nearly 10-minute interview with Christian von Koenigsegg. The founder of the Swedish hypercar company digs deep into the Agera One:1's engineering details, relating interesting facts about the aerodynamics and transmission. In addition, Leno chats with Rob Dickenson of Singer about its newly reimagined Porsche 911 Targa, and he gets the latest scoop on the Acura NSX's progress from newly promoted Acura Vice President and General Manager Jon Ikeda. If you like hearing about the nuts and bolts of sports car development, then this video can't be missed. Of course, we were there at Monterey, too, and we pointed our own cameras at some of the amazing machinery, both vintage and modern, at all the various car-focused events of the week. Take a look back at some of our own cool footage in the videos below. Related Video:
