Up for auction is perhaps the finest Cayman R for sale in the United States today!  I am the second owner of this awesome machine which is destined to become a mid-engine classic.  This is a 2012 Porsche Cayman R 987 6-speed in brilliant Basalt Black Metallic over Sand Beige full leather interior.  I purchased this vehicle through a business lease from Gaudin Porsche Las Vegas in January 2013 with 4331 miles on it.  The previous and original owner was an older gentleman who purchased the vehicle from this same dealership in 2012.  The vehicle has spent its entire life in Las Vegas and has been meticulously maintained with the renowned certified Porsche mechanics at Gaudin Porsche in Las Vegas.  Last maintenance was in October of 2013 in which it passed the Porsche world class inspection and received oil and filter change with the bi-annual hydraulic brake system flush at 8495 miles.

Please see below for equipment, options, detailed pictures, and YouTube walkaround video as well as Roadfly.com Cayman R test drive and car review.  Briefly this Cayman R is completely stock and unmodified, as it should be, just as it was when shipped to the USA from the Porsche factory in Stuttgart, Germany.  It has 15005 miles on it at present and has been my daily driver for the past 1.5 years under a business lease through my occupation as a physician.  It has never been tracked and comes heavily optioned with full sand beige leather interior, PCM with Navigation, heated seats, 19” Turbo II wheels, sound package plus, air conditioning, and Sport Chrono package.  I have the original window sticker from 2012 with the full list of standard equipment and options including the total purchase price with options at $84,690.  It is currently under factory warranty through 2016 or 50K miles.

In my 1.5 years of ownership I have thoroughly enjoyed the experience of driving what I consider the best pure 2-seat sports car in existence today.  The connection to the road and the absolute control of the mid-engine platform with the 6-speed manual transmission is stunning and effortless.  From the moment I first drove this Cayman R through a mountain pass outside Las Vegas I knew how special this car really was.  I have owned a 1997 Acura NSX and a 2010 Mustang Shelby GT500 and neither vehicle approaches the refinement, balance, and power of this incredibly engineered machine.  Average mpg is rated 19-27, and I have averaged 25.1mpg over my ownership tenure.  My only reason for selling at this time is that I am looking to purchase a home in Las Vegas and need to free up the funds to make this purchase and my favorite toy has to go.  I am more than willing to discuss any questions you may have about the vehicle and all service records are available at Gaudin Porsche in Las Vegas if requested.  Please message me through ebay and we can discuss over email or by phone any questions or concerns.  The vehicle is also for sale locally and I may end the auction early if a buyer is found before the auction closes.  Current mileage is a little over 15K miles and that number may rise by 100 or so miles during this 10 day auction, however once a buyer is found it will be kept in my garage until arrangements are made to either pick up the vehicle in person or have it shipped at the new owner's expense.  In terms of payment, I will accept payment of cash in person or wire transfer.  Once the funds have cleared, I will overnight payment to Porsche Financial Services in New York and once the lien is cleared and title released I will release it to the buyer along with the vehicle.  Good luck with bidding!

Exotic cars caught on video racing on neighborhood streets in Beverly Hills

Thu, Sep 17 2015

A pair of supercars caught on camera racing around a quiet Beverly Hills neighborhood last week has residents fearing for their safety. The video shows a white Porsche 911 and a yellow Ferrari LaFerrari as they clipped parked cars and blew through stop signs while residents of the upscale community watched in horror. Freelance cameraman Jacob Rogers shot the video of the supercar shenanigans. He later confronted a man outside the house where the Ferrari eventually parked. He asked the man if he cared that he was endangering people's lives. The man became combative and claimed he had diplomatic immunity. "He told me verbatim, 'I could have you killed and get away with it,'" Rogers told NBC Los Angeles. "I told him, 'the press is allowed to be here on the sidewalk on a public street.' He said, '(Expletive) America' and threw a cigarette at me." The Ferrari's plates are from the oil-rich country of Qatar. The race ended with the Ferrari pulling into the driveway of a $45,000-per-month rental home, its engine compartment smoking. Police can be seen arriving in the neighborhood. Los Angeles police are currently investigating the incident. Even though the LaFerrari was still smoking when police arrived they haven't filed charges because no officer witnessed the illegal activities. When police approached the owner of the vehicle he denied doing anything illegal and again claimed diplomatic immunity. Police told NBC they are in contact with the State Department about the man's diplomatic status and the legality of the cars in the neighborhood. Beverly Hills isn't the only swanky zip code plague by hotshot supercar owners. Some of the most expensive homes in London can be found In the Knightsbridge neighborhood - and some of the most expensive cars as well. This summer, the local council of Knightsbridge and nearby Chelsea began exploring a Public Space Protection Order that would fine drivers who rev their engines, drag race on residential streets or blare music, according to Reuters UK.

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Porsche says turbo'd 911 engines will still be revvy

Wed, Apr 15 2015

Porsche fans really, really don't like change. Remember when the 911 moved away from air-cooled engines? Now, as the company prepares to move the vast majority of the 911 line away from naturally aspirated powerplants, one of the brand's highest ranking officials is speaking out to prevent a similar outcry. Dr. Heinz-Jakob Neusser, the head of powertrain development for the Volkswagen Group and a board member of the VW brand, told Car that turbocharging won't take away from the rev-happy nature of Porsche's current engines. "Turbocharging is possible with higher revs – it's not true to say that turbocharged engines must stop at 6000rpm," Neusser told Car at the 2015 New York Auto Show. "That's not true... If you look at McLaren, they already have in production turbo engines with high revs." With turbocharged engines, Nuesser explains, there's no need to go for a super high redline, because engineers are trying to spread the torque over the entire rev range. "It makes no sense to go to 10,000 rpm with a turbocharged engine," Neusser told Car. The other big concern that comes with the switch to turbocharging focuses on the 911's iconic flat-six exhaust note. Maintaining the car's well-known acoustic character shouldn't be an issue, Neusser said. "Noise is not a problem," adding that the Volkswagen Group knows a thing or two about building sweet-sounding turbos. "Look at the 911 Turbo; it has an extremely expressive noise today – that is not a problem. At the other end of the scale, the Golf R has it too," Neusser told Car. "You won't miss character with turbos, I promise." According to Car, the new turbocharged engines will arrive later this year at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show, as part of the current 911's facelift.
