1992 1 Owner Porsche 968 Convertible With Only 14,500 Miles! on 2040-cars

Year:1992 Mileage:14560

This has to be the best and most original unmolested Porsche 968 cabriolet in existence today. It’s a one careful owner gem.

It has only 14,560 miles showing. These vehicle were hand-built and this car has been kept in a climate controlled atmosphere all of its life, only being sparingly used on weekends and holidays by its Commercial Pilot Owner. This is the perfect classic Porsche for the discriminating collector who desires the best in the country.

With a perfect weight distribution (50/50), six speed manual transmission, large bore 3.0 liter engine, this 968 cabriolet is marvelous to drive, and of course it has the legendary Porsche reliability.

Having never seen inclement weather this beautiful red over black leather roadster looks brand new.  You'll be hard pressed to find any physical signs of wear as there has never been a scratch or dent requiring paint work over its 20 year life. The paintwork just received the attention of our detail shop and $700 later (Yes I know, but they are the best) it looks like it should be in a new car showroom.

The interior shows no wear. The A/C blows powerfully cold. There are no chips or scratches in the glass. The rear window plastic and stitching look perfect and it gleams with no imperfections to the finish. The doors, hood and trunk lid align perfectly and close with the Porsche  "thunk". The rims have no scratches and the Tires are 500 miles old. The head light glass, turn signal covers, rear tail light covers and tiny bumperettes (front and rear) are perfect. Every electrical and mechanical component works as it did when it rolled out of the Porsche factory at Zuffenhausen, Germany in 1992.

Hennessey Porsche of Atlanta just serviced the Cambelt and secondary Belt,  (The second change it has had) so there is nothing to worry about mechanically. All fluids, Brake, Coolant, Oil etc have been changed last week.

It even comes with the factory supplied gloves in the engine bay compartment.

Included are 3 keys, original books, tools, air pump and extensive service receipt history. The vehicle obviously has a clean Carfax report and a copy of that will accompany the car.

In the 10 years we have been searching for an unmolested 968 convertible, this is the finest example we have ever seen. If you are a classic Porsche enthusiast looking for that special vehicle whose condition is considered "right out of the wrapper", this is your vehicle.

Only 2300 of these special 968 cabriolets were imported into the US from 1992-5. With most of them well used and with high miles, here is your opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Porsche treasure.

Personally I would treat it to a set of modern wheels and an MP3 payer, it has not been upgraded to preserve its originality.

Porsche continues facelift spree with 911 Turbo

Fri, 24 Jan 2014

If there's ever been automotive case for constant evolution, it is the Porsche 911. It seems like every time a new version of the rear-engined sports car debuts, Porsche is already hard at work on a facelifted version of it that changes some subtle, barely noticeable aspect.
Such is the case with this round of images of a facelifted 911 Turbo, which was seen undergoing winter testing alongside the facelifted, hardtop-version of the 911 Cabriolet we showed you yesterday. The new, 991-based 911 Turbo was just unveiled in May of 2013.
Like the Cabrio from yesterday, both the Turbo and naturally aspirated models shown here feature additional slats at the rear of the car, right behind the rear wheels. These slats on the standard model lend credence to what we learned yesterday - that even the regular 911 models could end up getting turbocharged mills.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.

Autocar pits Porsche 911 Turbo S against Formula 4 racer

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

There is a long-running argument among performance car fans: power vs. weight. In one corner you get cars generally with small engines making modest numbers but able to corner like they are telepathic, and in the other there are big thumping mills that are rocketships in a straight line but lumber in the turns. Autocar takes an interesting look this continuum in a recent video pitting a 552-hp Porsche 911 Turbo S against a 185-hp Formula 4 racecar. It hopes to find whether the Porsche's huge power advantage is enough to defeat the better grip and aero offered by the nimble racer.
There's no doubt that the Porsche is an utterly fantastic road car. The 911 Turbo looks mean with all of those intakes to suck in cool air, and it backs up the posture with huge amounts of grip available thanks to its all-wheel drive-system. However, at 3,538 pounds, it's a bit of a porker compared to the 1,135-pound Formula 4 car. The open-wheel car boasts just a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder from Ford and a six-speed sequential-manual gearbox, but it has loads of downforce to make up for it.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the formula car wins in the corners. After all, that's what it's made for. So do you think the massive horsepower superiority of the Porsche is enough to even the playing field? Scroll down to watch the video and find out, and even if you're not curious of the winner the 911 does some mean powerslides.
