up for sale is a well maintained $50,000 sports car with just under 200K miles on it.

drivetrain: when I bought this the oil cooler was leaking into the oil, so the previous owner had it parked for a few years in dry storage. I had this fixed, compression checked and motor gone through with all fluids changed at 196k and everything checked out. Compression numbers were not written down, but was well above levels requiring rebuild. It has been running mobile 1 full synthetic 0-40 for at least the last 40k miles. The timing belt was changed at 160k, was what I was told; there is no paperwork to substantiate this. according to the dash instruments, oil pressure is typically at 4 of 5 when under any sort of load. drops to 2-3 at idle. Big brake kit, with stiff suspension system. I think one of the previous owners had track prepped it...

bottom line: it pulls hard, doesn't smoke at all. I had it over 100 mph one time and was surprised just how much the car calmed down.

Interior: there are cracks in the dash, the center console is a little rickety but intact. The sunroof motor runs well, the gears were changed a month ago, but unfortunately there is a slight bend in the drive cable which causes it to hang up: taking the sunroof off requires removing the screws holding the gears in place (boo!). the headliner has been torn around the sunroof latches and to access the hatch. The hatch has been rebuilt. the passenger recarro seat could use some refastening/clips as it is "coat-tailing" on the back of the seat! kenwood stereo, CD with auxiliary input. Stock speakers still work fine, one cuts out occasionally. rear wiper turns itself on when you round corners, otherwise doesn't respond so I have it unplugged.

Exterior: midnight blue paint, some oxidation on the roof. there was a bit on the hood as well, so carbon fiber vinyl was placed to help hold it over until paint time comes. One of the previous owners put tacky red stripes on the passenger fender, which were oxidized and showing through to the blue paint, so I had these vinyled with the orange as shown. personally, I think it should be consistent color, but was concerned that if I had these removed that it would cause a worse problem. that said, I'm sure there's people out there that would like it this way. factory wing is paint matched. body is straight, no bumps or paint nicks noted to bumpers. some body work has been done, but done well (I can't tell what they did and I have a discerning eye). front driving lights cracked but still functional. headlights work well.

wheels/tires: SSR racing 18" 3 piece wheels with sumitomo HTRZ III, front 235/40ZR18, rear 275/35ZR18. Rear tires have about 300 miles on them, front indeterminant, but plenty of tread left. cost: 400/wheel, 160 per tire. 3 of the stock rims are also available for an extra $200 (one was stolen out of the garage!), tires are almost new.

local pickup only. I reserve the right to end the auction early due to other listings.

Porsche's latest Driver's Selection keeps enthusiasts happy at home

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Porsche fans - and there are certainly plenty of them out there, even in here on the Autoblog editorial staff - can be pretty emphatic about their enthusiasm, insisting that the 911 is the very definition of the sportscar. And for some, merely admiring one from afar or even leaving theirs parked outside isn't enough. For just such enthusiats, Porsche Design has expanded its Driver's Selection with some tantalizing additions for the home and office.
First up is a desk chair made from the bucket seat in a 911 Carrera, which we have to admit we'd rather be sitting in right now over this blasted, rather unexciting ergonomic office chair. It's covered in black leather (the same you'd find inside an actual 911) embossed with the Porsche emblem and features electronic backrest adjustment.
There's also a wall shelf made from the carbon-fiber rear spoiler a 911 GT3 Cup racecar that can support up to 264 pounds of downforce in the form of books, trinkets and whathaveyou. And there's a limited-edition resin model of the 918 Spyder in 1:8 scale. The items haven't hit the Porsche shop just yet, so we don't have pricing information, but if they tickle your fancy, the online store has plenty more to offer.

Evo makes the case for the world's best driving road in Majorca

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

What good is a sports car if you haven't got a great place to drive it? It's a common refrain that we've heard time and time again. But few are as familiar with the problem as they are in the UK, where the number of people, cars on the road and traffic cameras keep growing to conspire against the joy of driving. Leave it to Evo, then, to depart in search of the greatest driving road in the world.
It's a pursuit that's taken the British car mag across Europe, most recently to Romania's Carpathian Mountains where it added the Transalpina Pass to its short list. But its latest journey has taken Evo to the Spanish island of Majorca, where Henry Catchpole found not one, but two spectacular driving roads from behind the wheel of the new Porsche Boxster GTS. We could drone on about the smooth, empty ribbons of twisting tarmac with excellent visibility and panoramic vistas... but you really want to see the video for yourself. Don't miss Evo's previous trip to Romania in the Jaguar F-Type, which we've included below, as well.
