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). There are "no" oil leaks, which speaks to the excellent condition of this car mechanically, because most 928's do leak some oil. 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 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.

Singer 911 gorgeousness explored and experienced by Chris Harris

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

Few things get us as cranked up as a Porsche 911. Generation after generation, this rear-engined oddity has exhilarated our senses, and the new 991 is the most capable iteration yet. Even so, there's a lot to be said for the older models, from their lighter weights and more modest dimensions to their air-cooled thrums.
That elemental vintage Porsche appeal hasn't been lost on Los Angeles-based Singer Vehicle Design, which has endeavored to take the best bits from every generation of 911 and combine them into one impossibly sexy rear-engined machine. Based on a 964 donor car, we knew that a lot of work would need to go into everything from the structure to the bodywork to realize the Singer's cohesive aesthetic and dynamic vision, but we didn't know just how much until we watched this Drive video featuring Chris Harris. The auto journo gets time with the 350-horsepower, Cosworth-motivated coupe on both mountain passes and at the track, but what could be the most interesting thing about the 27-minute-long video is his in-depth plant tour.
Check it out by scrolling below, but not before paging through our new Singer 911 gallery.

2015 Porsche 911 GTS starts at $114,200*

Wed, 08 Oct 2014

Purists often criticize Porsche for creating products like the Cayenne, Panamera and recently launched Macan, saying they dilute the true sports car spirit of the brand. It's an argument we've heard before, and one we counter with two points. First: No they don't. And second: These are Porsche's volume superstars, and the money they rake in allows the company to create dozens of versions of its well-liked sports cars. Want proof? Have a look at the gallery above, where you'll see four new versions of the 911, all with GTS badges on their rumps. This means Porsche now offers 19 versions of the 911. Nineteen.
Porsche offered a GTS version of the 911 in its previous generation, and this new one seeks to slot somewhere between the standard car and the hardcore GT3. It's available in coupe and cabriolet forms, with either rear- or all-wheel drive, starting at $114,200, *not including $995 for destination. The GTS Cabriolet comes in at $126,100, while models equipped with AWD will set you back $120,900 or $132,800 for the coupe or convertible, respectively.
All GTS models get the 430-horsepower version of the Carrera S' 3.8-liter flat-six with the Powerkit, which also includes the Sport Chrono package and the sport exhaust. If equipped with the PDK dual-clutch transmission, the 911 GTS will hit 60 miles per hour in just 3.8 seconds (or four seconds flat, if you've got the Cabriolet) - one tenth of a second quicker than the normal Carrera S. The car's top speed varies, depending on trim or transmission, but Porsche says the car will hit anywhere from 187 to 190 mph, flat out.

Despite premium carmakers going downmarket, luxury auto sales stick at 10-11%

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

According to research conducted by global information company IHS Automotive, the leporine birthing of new models by luxury manufacturers over the past six years hasn't increased their market share in the US. Even as car sales reached 15.6 million units, IHS says what's happened instead is that luxury buyers are merely moving from one brand to another, moving from larger luxury vehicles into hot segments like compact luxury crossovers or leaving the market at the same rate as other buyers enter.
Whether broken out by makes or by segment, market share has rollercoastered inside a narrow band from 10.5 to 11.5 percent since "at least" 2008. Closer investigation reveals the shifting boundaries in the aspirational pond, with brands like Mercedes-Benz and Audi gaining territory as Lexus and Lincoln lost it, and Saab and Hummer were buried, dead, under it. One neat note is that Tesla has gone from a share of zip to .12 percent.
The subcompact and compact crossover segments show growth, with those little high-riders jumping from .3 percent to 1.16 percent of overall industry sales. Their rise, though, is concomitant with the decline of four other segments: compact and midsize cars and fullsize cars and SUVs. We think the next few years that will tell if the small-car expansion can overcome the large-car retraction, with a phalanx of smaller offerings like the CLA only recently hitting the market and others like the GLA, Macan and Q1 doing so in the near future.
