Up for auction is this "Exceptionally Rare" 1995 Porsche 928gts.  This was the final year of production for the Porsche 928gts.  Ferdinand Porsche (owner of the company) reportedly drove one of these cars.  The color is "Polar Silver."  It has a black leather interior.  It also has an electric sunroof.  There were only 77 1995 Porsche 928gts cars produced.  This car is Production #13 of 77.  It is Serial #73.  Only 9 of the 77 cars produced came in the color "Polar Silver."  Only 6 of those 9 cars came in with the Automatic Transmission.  It has 72871 miles.  The engine is a 345 HP, 5.4L 32 valve V8. This car is in "amazing" condition and has a lot of extras you won't find on any other Porsche 928gts.

This car comes with Chromed Techart wheels (Germany) & centercaps.  The front wheels are 8.5 x 18.  The rear wheels are 10.5 x 18.  They were both purchased and professionally chromed by "Wheel Enhancement" out of California.  The wheels have four (4) Michelin Pilot Sport wheels on them with less than 600 miles on them.  The front tires are 225/40 ZR18's.  The rears are 295/30 ZR18's.  The rear tires are very wide and completely underneath the body with no rub issues on the front or rear.  This gives the car a very powerful and menacing appearance.  It is a very cool look!  I get compliments on this car every time I take it out in public. 

The soundsystem includes a Alpine CDA9885 radio/CD player, and it is set up with an IPOD connecter hidden in the center console.  All 10 of the factory speakers have been upgraded to MB Quart (German) speakers, along with a MB Quart Subwoofer.  It comes with a Soundstream Van Gogh (VGA800.5) Amp that powers the system.  This is an 800 Watt 5 Channel Amplifier, that has a very low Total Harmonic Distortion Level of .02%.  This is the cleanest and the most crisp sound I have ever heard from a car stereo.  The stereo has a complete system of MB Quart Crossovers set up to get the right frequencies to the right speakers.  The MB Quart Subwoofer, MB Quart Crossovers, and the Soundstream Amp are all housed in the rear hatchback area in a professional cabinet that matches the black leather in the vehicle.  This professional cabinet includes a discrete switch for black light illumination if desired.  All of this was professional installed.  No corners were cut, because I wanted it perfect.  The car has also been equipped with a discrete (hidden) cable for connection of your radar detector to the visor.  

Both factory front seats have been replaced with Black Leather Recaro adjustable seats with lateral and thigh support.  They were just installed last year, and still look brand new.  The car has been driven less than 500 miles since they were installed.  They are "much" more comfortable than the original factory seats, and much sportier looking as well.  They are fully adjustable.  Recaro makes the best leather seats, and that is why I selected them for this car.  The entire leather interior of the car is in "beautiful condition." 

Mechanically, the car runs exceptionally well.  It is very smooth with powerful throttle response.  The "Timing Belt" (a critical element of these cars costing about $1000.00 parts + labor) was just replaced in June of last year.  It has less than 500 miles on this new timing belt.  The car battery was replaced in June of last year.  This car has been "very well" taken care of.  It has always been garaged, is rarely driven, and has been regularly maintained via service from Jones' Autowerks, Inc. (in San Antonio, TX).  I have receipts documenting maintenance.  I have owned this car since 2004.  This vehicle can be inspected prior to sale at the buyers discretion to verify the condition of the car.  The oil was changed less than 500 miles ago (Castrol GTX 20W50).  The AC blows cold.

This is the nicest Porsche 928gts that I have ever seen, inside and out.  The Porsche 928 "gts" is a very rare car anyway, but the 1995 928gts is the rarest and most desirable of all.  It was the final year of production and represented the ultimate refinement of this model.  Again, there were only 77 of these cars built, and this one was #13.  I am selling this car because I am getting older and need to downsize my fine European car collection.  This car is in superb driving condition, and it is ready to go and drive "now."  Maintenance is up to date.

Thanks for looking.  If you have personal questions, please let me know.  I am very proud of this car, and if you are looking for a Porsche 928gts, you won't find one better, as the pictures illustrate.  Pictures of the excellent black leather interior on this car will be posted shortly.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.

Porsche's 959 is still poster-worthy after all these years

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Today, we have the Porsche 918 Spyder. Before that, there was the Carrera GT. While both of those cars are dramatic departures from the traditional, rear-engine Porsche formula, they owe their very existence to another wild child of the iconic German brand - the 959.
Like so many of the great performance cars of yesteryear, the 959 was a homologation special, built just so Porsche could go racing in the clinically insane Group B rally series. Fewer than 400 959s hit the streets, but those that did were some of the most advanced cars of the 1980s. A rear-mounted, twin-turbocharged flat-six sent its power through a still-rare all-wheel-drive system, creating a race-inspired rocket that was, for a short time, the fastest production car on the planet.
Xcar has the story of the 959, from its inception to its conquest of the Paris-Dakar rally, which is interspersed with a drive of the legendary coupe. Scroll down for the full video.

2016 Porsche Boxster Spyder marks the return of something great [w/video]

Wed, Apr 1 2015

Welcome back, Porsche Boxster Spyder. We absolutely adored the previous version – a roadster focused solely on driver enjoyment and simplistic perfection. Heck, we didn't even care that it had cloth loops for door handles. And this new model looks to (somehow) offer even more to love. Let's start with that engine: the 3.8-liter flat-six tuned to produce 375 horsepower and mated exclusively to a manual transmission, which powers the Spyder to 60 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 180 mph. But power isn't the only thing that makes the Spyder package so great. It uses brakes from the 911 Carrera S, is the lightest Boxster in the range, sits 20 millimeters lower to the ground than the standard car, and still features the manually operated cloth roof from the previous car. And it looks fantastic. Fan-freaking-tastic. Inside, there's a whole lot of nothing, and that's just fine with us. Want a radio? That'll be extra. Air conditioning? Open your wallet for that, too. Seems odd in a car that'll start at $82,100 when it goes on sale later this year. But once again, this Boxster Spyder is a tactile sports car whose only mission is to offer outstanding driving dynamics – comfort options are optional, but not necessary. We can't wait to get our hands on this one. New York International Auto Show 2015: World Premiere of the Boxster Spyder New top model in Boxster family Atlanta. Porsche is highlighting the 2015 convertible season by celebrating the world premiere of the new Boxster Spyder. This pure sports car will make its debut at the New York International Auto Show. The new top model of the Boxster range retains the unique and unmistakable character of the previous Spyder, which has already attained cult status. For example, the classic roadster top is still opened and closed by hand, and the Boxster Spyder is only available with a manual transmission, benefiting both weight savings and driver enjoyment. Staying true to roadster DNA, the Boxster Spyder offers a traditional sports-car driving experience combined with truly exceptional performance. This includes a firm sport suspension with a 20-mm lower ride height, brakes taken from the 911 Carrera S, more direct steering, and a 3.8-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine with an output of 375 hp, culminating in a genuine sports car experience with outstanding driving dynamics. It is the lightest model of the current Boxster line, and the most powerful Boxster to date.
