I've had this car for a few years and upgrades during that time have included new paint in the original color of Bahia Red, new leather seat upholstery, restoration of the 911 Fuchs wheels, new tires, new clutch, new windshield, new light lenses, and many other small details. The previous owner (of 15 years) upgraded the car to 911 suspension, 911 brakes, and Bilstein shocks. Needless to say, it handles and stops like a dream.

This car still has its original fuel injection and fires right up without delay every time. It's a good-looking, excellent-running, and fun driver, yet it is far from flawless. Items that still require attention include (but are not limited to):

Passenger outside door latch not working. There's a small plastic piece inside these that is probably broken. The door opens fine from the inside.
The previous owner installed an aggressively low front valence (see photos). I recently removed this in order to make dealing with driveways and speed bumps less annoying, however I will include the valence with the sale.
Dashboard needs to be replaced or recovered.
After having the car repainted, the rear trunk lid fit is a little off on the passenger side (see photos). I don't know what the painters did to cause this and I don't know how to repair it on my own or I would have done it prior to putting the car up for sale. It's only a minor cosmetic flaw, yet I wouldn't leave the car sitting out on a rainy day just in case water might be able to leak into the trunk. In fact, I wouldn't leave this car sitting out on a rainy day anyway.
All window seals (except for the windshield, which was recently replaced) are old and most likely original. It's probably time to replace them. In the meantime, there will be wind noise if you drive with the top on and the windows up. (Yeah, right. Like you're actually going to be driving this toy with the top on and the windows up!)
It leaks oil. You want to place something under the car to prevent staining your garage floor. I've looked into repairing this, and have basically been told that it's something that should be addressed (engine seals) when I'm ready to completely rebuild the motor. Since the car runs strong, I've decided to just live with the oil leak in the meantime.
There might be other things I'm not thinking about at the moment. Come see it in person!

I prefer local buyers so that you can see the car in person first. That said, the last two cars I sold on eBay went out of state and the buyers were happy (see my feedback). If you want it shipped, you make the arrangements. Also, I prefer cash, but PayPal will work as well. If you have another method of payment in mind, please contact me to discuss this BEFORE making on offer or clicking on Buy It Now.

Driving 50 years of Porsche 911 history

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Raiding The Porsche Museum For A Fun Track Day
It seems everyone is celebrating anniversaries this year: it's Aston's hundredth, Lamborghini's fiftieth, Ford Mustang's fiftieth, Chevy Corvette's sixtieth - and Tesla just turned ten or something. It's been a little out of hand, frankly, all these forced marketing festivities, but if we had to pick one milestone to really celebrate hard and party all night, the Porsche 911 would be at the top of our list.
Get ready for a major 911 blowout bash at next week's Frankfurt Motor Show. It was on September 12 back in 1963 at this very show where Porsche unveiled its "901" painted in a rather boring shade of beige. Though drably finished, the car caused a worldwide frenzy in the budding German sports car sphere.

Magnus Walker drives 911 Turbos old and new

Wed, Mar 25 2015

It's been forty years now since Porsche released the original 911 Turbo. And as many things that have remained a constant, a lot has changed, too: the engine has gone from air-cooled to liquid, moved up to nearly a midships layout, and drives almost exactly double the original's output to all four wheels instead of just the back set through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission instead of a five-speed manual. It'll also reach highway speeds about twice as fast as the original. That's progress for you, and who better to compare Porsche Turbos old and new than Magnus Walker. The outlaw of the 911 scene may not look the part, but to those in the know, he's got the last word when it comes to Porsches. After searching for some time, Walker recently got his hands on a cherry of an original 930 Turbo from 1975 – the first year it was made Â– and had it shipped from Australia to California to add to his collection. eGarage caught up with Walker and brought along a new 991 Turbo for juxtaposition. Fortunately it also brought along a video camera or two to document the experience, so check it out in the latest video above.

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche Mission E charging for Tesla, net zero energy Toyota dealership

Wed, Oct 5 2016

Porsche has confirmed that its Mission E charging infrastructure will also work with Tesla vehicles. The ultra-fast, 800-volt charging system will recharge the Mission E to 80 percent in about 15 minutes, and will also service new EVs from Volkswagen and Audi. Porsche CEO Oliver Blume told Top Gear that development of the charging infrastructure "sounds easy but getting the details agreed is hard. We already have the clear technical concept. It can even work with Teslas, with an adapter." Dieter Zetsche, Head of Mercedes-Benz, also tells Top Gear that they are "in talks" with Porsche regarding charging infrastructure.

The newly constructed, LEED Platinum certified Toyota of Corvallis produces more energy than it consumes, for which it is expected to receive Net Zero Energy certification. The 34,800-square-foot building is equipped with enough solar panels to produce as much energy that the dealership will use, with excess being put back into the grid, which will help during hours of peak demand. Toyota Motor Sales regional manager Steve Haag calls Toyota of Corvallis, "a first-of-its-kind template for the auto dealership of the future." Read more from Toyota. Valeo has introduced a new 48-volt hybrid system. The 48V e4Sport, as it is called, uses a 48-volt battery, electric starter-generator, electric supercharger, and eRAD electric rear axle drive for all-wheel drive. It maximizes regenerative braking and stores that energy for increasing torque with the starter-generator, and increasing acceleration with the electric supercharger. The system also supports all-electric driving modes. Valeo says the system is applicable across all vehicle segments, and works with both gasoline and diesel engines. Read more at Green Car Congress. PSA Group has created its own mobility solutions brand, called Free2Move. Free2Move will handle programs like car sharing, connected services, corporate fleet services, and affordable leasing programs for Peugeot, Citroen, DS, and other PSA partners. "For the PSA Group, mobility means not only making and selling excellent cars, but also offering a full range of mobility solutions," says PSA Group VP of Mobility Services Gregoire Olivier.
