This is a no reserve auction for a 1977 Porsche 924 Martini & Rossi edition.  Approximately 3000 of the cars were produced to commemorate Porsche’s racing victories in the previous years with a plaque on the center console of the car to this end.


This particular car was originally sold in Portland Oregon in 1977 and then purchased by the previous owner in 1978 and brought back to Seattle Washington where it spent the remainder of it’s life until I purchased the car last year and brought it back home to Portland.


Exterior and Body:


The body is in decent condition for a car of this age.  There is no major rust anywhere to be found although there are some dings and touchups that have been done over the years.  It looks to have been repainted at some point in its original color.  As can be seen in the photos, the front valence is worn and there are some rock chips on the hood where there is some minor surface rust.


Interior:


The interior is all original down to the Blaupunkt 8-track tape player and is in fantastic condition.  The seats and carpet still have a deep red hue and look great.  The original leather steering wheel is still with the car as well.  The dash is cracked in places as can be seen in the photos but other than that it looks almost new.


Mechanical:


The car runs, drives, stops, and shifts through all the gears.  I drive the car on the weekends and have not had any issues.  There are no fluid leaks since replacing the oil pan gasket, no smoke, and the car starts right up.  Since picking up the car I had the following done by an independent Porsche shop.


Replaced oil pan gasket, oil filter, fuel filter, and oil change.

Replaced Timing belt and tensioner.

Replaced engine mounts with new ones from vibra-technics.

Replaced headlamp relay and switches so headlights are now fully functioning.

New Toyo tires all around.


Everything works on the car other than the odometer which stopped at 102892 miles.  The previous owner guessed that about 20000 miles were put on since then but I cannot verify so mileage is unknown.


Other:


The car has had the EGR equipment disabled or removed.  The buyer must do due diligence to understand the emissions requirements for their state.  The car passed Oregon emissions and has current tags good through November 2015.


Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements.  The car is located in Portland Oregon.  This is a 37 year old car and has not undergone any type of complete restoration either mechanical or cosmetic.  The car is being sold As Is.


I have a clean and clear title for the car and original manuals.  A 500 dollar deposit is due within 24 hours of the auction end and the balance is due within
7 days of auction end.  Please ask any and all questions before bidding.


This is a nice original example of this edition and an interesting part of Porsche’s history.  Good luck and happy bidding.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

VW close to decision on selling Bugatti to Rimac

Sun, Feb 21 2021

FRANKFURT — Electric hypercar maker Rimac Automobili and Volkswagen's supercar brand Bugatti are a good technological fit, Porsche's CEO told German weekly Automobilwoche, fueling hopes that a deal between the two could happen soon. British automotive magazine Car last year reported that Volkswagen was on the verge of selling Bugatti to Rimac Automobili, citing sources. In exchange, Porsche, also owned by Volkswagen, would raise the 15.5% stake it owns in Rimac, founded by Croatian entrepreneur Mate Rimac, Car said. "At the moment there are intense deliberations on how Bugatti can be developed in the best possible way. Rimac could play a role here because the brands are a good technological fit," Porsche CEO Oliver Blume said. "There are various scenarios with different structures. I believe that the issue will be decided by the group in the first half of the year," said Blume, who also sits on the management board of parent Volkswagen. Rimac has developed an electric supercar platform, which he supplies to other carmakers, including Pininfarina. Blume also confirmed higher savings targets for Porsche, saying the carmaker plans to support results by 10 billion euros ($12.1 billion) of cost cuts by 2025, up from 6 billion previously.
