For auction is two Porsche Boxsters in order to make one.  The black one is a great rolling 2001 Boxster S chassis with complete S suspension still installed, all main wiring harness installed with NO cuts to any wires, All abs system is intact, no brake lines were cut or damaged. Fuel system is all intact, with no fuel lines cut. Body is in nice shape, but has some small dings, that can easily be repaired. Please see pictures as to what is still in place and what is not. This Porsche would be a great start for a race car or if you have a wrecked car and want a clean title S body. This black car hasn't been in any accidents, the car had engine failure and is now in its current condition. Car has only 66,171 miles on chassis, and clean car fax. The yellow one is a regular 2002 Boxster 2.7L which was complete without accidents as well but the title is non-rebuildable.  The yellow is missing right now the seats and a left rear quarter panel was cut to fix another one (not the black one).  The original yellow front and rear bumper covers were sold and now I have a rear white one which needs repair and a fiberglass front one that I was planning to cut and customize as a GT2.  This is a project to take the power train and parts from the yellow one and install in the black Boxster S.  I was going to do it but now I have other plans.  With the money you sell the extra parts of the yellow that the black one don't need you can make money for the seats, etc.  The Black Boxster is missing the steering wheel but you can exchange the one in the yellow (which I will leave loose) for loading and unloading.  The cluster of the yellow has about 82K miles.  The extra parts you can sell are the front hood, doors, front fenders, wheels, tires in good shape, and even the chassis, etc.   There are some parts that look missing in the yellow Boxster like the gauge cluster, trunk carpets and the passenger door panel but I have them. Please ask any question you have. I was planning to install a turbo kit in the car just to increase the horsepower and response (even more than a Boxster S), so basically you could have a Boxster S for cheap if you are willing to exchange the parts.  You don't need an engine lift because it gets out from the bottom.  The vehicles are offered locally for sale.  I have the right to stop the auction if the reserve price have not been met.  I'm loosing money in this deal but I need them out of my garage ASAP.

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.

2014 Porsche 911 Targa takes its crop-top off in Motor City

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

Back in 1965, Porsche invented the 911 Targa as a matter necessity. Believing that a finicky National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was prepared to outlaw convertibles, the innovative automaker created the half-open car as a way to keep wind rushing through owners' hair. Though far removed from those formative days, it seems as though the 2015 Porsche 911 Targa has come to the Detroit Auto Show with a new-school version of some old-school tech.
While the last Targa featured a trick sliding glass roof at the touch of the button, the new car dramatically swallows a traditional-looking panel via an exceptionally complex-looking mechanical operation. The net result is "the same fun factor and freedom" that can be had with a complete convertible, though with slightly more open-driving protection while underway.
And, as is the case with all of the current 911 range, getting underway can be done with reasonable rapidity. The entry-level Targa 4 rocks a 350-horsepower, 3.4-liter flat-six engine just behind the rear axle, making that car good for 175 miles per hour at the top end (with the seven-speed manual, 174 mph with PDK) and a 0-to-60 sprint of 4.6 seconds. The Targa 4S, meanwhile, offers 400 horsepower from 3.8-liters of boxer six, runs to 60 in 4.2 seconds and hits a top "track speed" of 183 mph.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles

Mon, May 13 2024

It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.
