This is the one you have been waiting for. As good as it gets in Delphi green (L99A), this original 73 2.0L (motor# GA002304) numbers, color and date stamps matching  914 with original Fuel Injection has always been fully maintained and driven. The last long term owner was a pilot who used it mainly for a commute from Sacramento to the Bay area (SFO) twice a month. Actual mileage in unverifiable but has been maintained and serviced regularly at IPB Autosport (one of Sacrmento's premier independent shops). Newer brakes, calipers, Raby's heads (aircooledtechnology.com), Bridgstone Potenzas, valve adjustment / tune up service, etc. Never a restored car, just lived and easy life. 1 older repaint in original color (less than perfect but very presentable 10 footer still today). Very solid, dry car with only 1 minor rust area in trunk floor too minor to repair (pictured in link, circled in Red). No other issues including hell holes, rockers and front trunk (and all areas are pictured in link). Everything works on this car, as prior owner depended on it for actual transpiration: lights, brights, signals, heater, defrost, fresh air blower fan, wipers, windshield washers (updated with electric pump), fog lights (converted to yellow driving lights, super bright), all gauges, dome light, door buzzers, parking brake, flashers, radio/cd player w/remote & ipod hookup wired into center storage box, etc. Great gaps throughout with no major signs of accidents or crinkled up aprons. Excellent bumpers and above average rubber and gaskets. Very little wind noise with windows rolled up and top on. Above average original interior with a few dash cracks and some thin areas in original carpets. Runs fantastic and starts up on the first try, every time (love a good working FI system). Trans and clutch are perfect. Front and rear sway bars with Konis keep it firmly planted. No freeway wander and very confident at high speeds as well as agile and swift through the twisties. This car is every bit as fun to drive as any 911 and has the integrity and soundness of a much new car. Original owners manual, maintenance record & emissions control equipment booklets (all 3 dealer stamped), tools, original key (still locks everything, both doors, trunks, glovebox, ignition)and valet key, jack & spare  are all included.

Not a perfect restored example, but a wonderful driver / survivor that is too nice to restore and in many ways better with the soul that remains in it's patina. Don't fool yourself, complete, original, in tact, numbers matching, running, driving, no stories/excuses examples are nearly impossible to find these days (even in sunny dry CA where I live, and where the majority of these cars were sold). Sure to appreciate as one of the icon cars of the 914 run.

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

Wed, 29 Jan 2014



$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.

Porsche in Paul Walker fatal accident was traveling over 100 mph before crash

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

The Porsche Carrera GT involved in the November crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and racer Roger Rodas was traveling at speeds above 100 miles per hour before Rodas lost control for "unknown reasons," according to a report from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office that has been acquired by The Hollywood Reporter.
Once control was lost, the Porsche spun, hit a curb and then impacted a tree and a light post, then it spun 180 degrees and hit another tree before erupting in flames, the report said. Neither Walker nor Rodas were under the influence of any drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, according to toxicology reports conducted by the coroner.
As for the future of the Fast and Furious franchise, a separate by The Hollywood Reporter claims director James Wan, writer Chris Morgan and Universal Studios will move forward with the seventh installment in the franchise, which was only partially completed when Walker was killed.

Porsche busts out new Boxster GTS and Cayman GTS

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Baby 911. The poor man's Porsche. That's what they called the Boxster when it debuted some 20 years ago. They said the same of the first Cayman when it arrived a decade later, but they stopped saying it when the latest iterations hit the scene two years ago. That's because Zuffenhausen's entry-level models have long since stepped out of their big brother's shadow and into their own. And that's all the more true of the new Boxster GTS and Cayman GTS.
Based on the Boxster S and Cayman S, the new GTS models benefit from an enhanced 3.4-liter flat six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque in the roadster or 340 hp and 280 lb-ft in the coupe - representing an increase of 15 hp and 7 lb-ft in either model. Both also come with the Sport Chrono package as standard, along with adjustable suspension and 20-inch alloys, blacked out to match the dynamic headlight surrounds and other muted trim.
Those disappointed by the unavailability of a manual transmission in the fire-prone 911 GT3 will be pleased to note that a six-speed manual comes standard, but those enamored of letting a pair of clutches shift themselves seamlessly will want to spring for the optional seven-speed DCT. So equipped and with launch control engaged, the Boxster GTS will rocket from a standstill to 62 miles per hour in 4.7 seconds, while the incrementally lighter, more powerful Cayman will hit it in 4.6. Either way you're looking at a third of a second quicker than the Boxster/Cayman S. There's also a 20-millimeter lowered suspension on offer for track-day enthusiasts.
