1975 Porsche 914, 2.0 is all original, including the yellow berber paint. This car has a documented 69,000 miles in it. I have kept this car in the garage and have service records on every service I have had done on it since I owned it in 2007. I also have service records dating back to 1980, from the previous 2 owners. The car looks great and drives fantastic, it runs and shifts smoothly in all 5 gears and in reverse. Mechanically the car is 100%, I have had an experienced 914 Technician to work on this car. Some of the repairs include: New Brakes (frt & rear), New Master Cylinder 19mm (914 style), New Flywheel and rear seal, replaced Rear Springs with HS 915720 Wettmeister Springs, Replaced Clutch & Clutch Cable, Shift Bushing and Release Bearing, Spring Throttle, Replaced Speedometer Cable with Angle Drive, Replaced Fuel Pump, New Tires, New Battery and Battery Tray. I have had the oil changed regularly, valves adjusted and compression check. All lights work properly. the car has the electronic fuel ignition that works great. The interior is very good, the passenger seat has some cracks, the dash has 1 crack in the center where I have a porsche emblem coving it but I have a good dash cap (crack free) and a center console with gauges that I have purchased but not put in the car that will go with it. The exterior has the original berber yellow paint which looks amazing for a 38 year old car. There are a few minor parking lot door dings that are very minor and from a few feet away not noticeable. I have an extra rear truck lid that will also go with the car. The money has bent spent to make my 914 Porsche a great blast from the past that you would be proud of.

Porsche revisits its remarkable SC East African Safari rally car
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Porsche and motorsports just seem to go hand-in-hand. The brand has defined itself by its ability to compete on the track with the concept that racing bred better road cars. While we are used to seeing 911s speeding along circuits around the world, the rear-engine icon's success in rallying is somewhat less well known. The Porsche Museum aims to fix that by highlighting a 911 SC that competed in the 1978 East African Safari Rally.
The 911 rally car definitely projects a '70s vibe. You wouldn't see too many racecars with a pink brush bar sliding through the stages these days, but it looks amazing. Its bank of spotlights and two, giant, hood-mounted horns definitely give away the car's purpose. Best of all, that fantastic Martini livery defines the looks of Porsche racers from this era.
The 911 SC performed well in the East African Safari Rally, but some suspension damage meant that this particular one never raced again. It's been a part of the Porsche Museum ever since. Scroll down to learn a little more about one part of the brand's off-road legacy.
Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.
Porsche Macan fails moose test, Stuttgart responds
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Different countries have different safety standards, but most of them revolve around a similar set of tests: front impact, side impact, offset impact, rollover... the usual. But Sweden has its own test. It's called the Moose Test (or the Elk Test), and it's unique to Scandinavia: a car has to be able to avoid a theoretical antlered mammal on the road while traveling at 43.5 miles per hour and return to its previous course without flipping over. The Jeep Grand Cherokee ran afoul of the uniquely Nordic maneuver a couple of years ago, but even more surprising is the way the Porsche Macan has reacted.
Under testing by Sweden's Teknikens Värld, Porsche's downsized crossover - specifically the Macan S Diesel, for what it's worth - didn't flip over, but it skidded off course. In real-world conditions, it follows, the vehicle could run off the road or into oncoming traffic. The testers ran the test several times, and even removed excess weight from the vehicle, and each time it reacted the same way.
In response, Porsche has explained that the behavior is the result of its Active Rollover Protection system kicking in. When the system detects that the vehicle could drastically oversteer, flip over or lose its tire, it momentarily applies the brake on the front outside wheel, allowing the vehicle to shed the cornering forces without losing it completely.
