1974 - Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Mesa, Arizona, United States
Rust free AZ/CA car with steel Carrera flares. Exterior Porsche paint in great condition. Porsche galvanized engine lid with duck tail for perfect fit, and no future rust issues. Full SC suspension with aluminum trailing arms, adjustable spring plates, front and rear sway bars, S brakes, 7&8 Fuchs rims w/ new tires, lowered and corner balanced. This beautiful Porsche glides on rails. We all know that the factory 2.7 engine had its share of serious issues. One of the reason for Porsche in late 70's to change from the 2.7 engine to the more HP and reliable 3.0 engine. The 3.0 engine was used in 1974 for the RS, and the great racing RSR models. The prior owner who also took great care of this garaged queen, had installed the awesome 1978 SC 3.0L engine (6581688) transplant (receipt included). Engine has 15K miles with backdated correct 74 exhaust. This Super strong pulling, smooth power that will a 'put a smile on your face. Front oil cooler option keeps things running cool even on the very hot Arizona days. Rebuilt SC 915 gearbox shifts smooth, precise and confident. No sloppy shifting, grinding or popping out of gear. The aluminum cases are stronger, and have strengthened differntials. 8:31 final drive ratio. The 8:31 ring and pinions are significantly stronger then the earlier 215 7:31 ratio, and most desirable one to use with higher horsepower engines where service life doubled. Beautiful period correct Recaro seats, set off the ORIGINAL interior in very good condition including headliner, and with added New carpet. Everything works. Power windows, and sunroof options. Period Air Conditioning will need service/ charge as it hasn't been used in years. New Kenwood CD stereo w/remote, ipod/mp3 and usb hook ups. New speakers in the original location behind vintage Blaupunkt door covers only. Original spare tire, jack, toolkit, original exterior mirror, COA and receipts.

Paul Walker's accident due to 'speed, and speed alone'
Thu, 19 Dec 2013Following an investigation into the crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and driver Roger Rodas, an unnamed law enforcement source told the Associated Press that there were no signs of mechanical failure on the Porsche Carrera GT that was destroyed in the accident.
The report from The Huffington Post claims the officer in question blamed "speed, and speed alone" in the fatal accident. The same report ruled out the presence of debris in the road, which may have caused Rodas to lose control of the V10-powered super car.
Engineers from Porsche are traveling to California to investigate the accident with the help of the Carrera GT's on-board data recorder. Until then, investigators won't speculate on the car's speed at the time of the wreck.
Meet the main man behind the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We have yet to catch our breath from our first drive of the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3, but if you're still not sold on the fact that this track-ready 911 is only offered with a PDK transmission, then you should take it up with Andreas Preuninger. Preuninger is the guy who led the team responsible for the latest GT3. Porsche has released a video giving a little backstory of what went into the development of the car, which had as its goal the creation of a pure, rewarding 911 driving experience.
The video captures the sights and sounds of the GT3 perfectly. Perhaps the best part is listening to Preuninger describe one of the defining moments that resulted in replacing the GT3's manual gearbox with the PDK. We don't want to ruin the video for you, so scroll down to check it out for yourself.
Which is quicker in the standing mile, a Subaru WRX STI or a Porsche Cayman?
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The 2015 Subaru WRX STI and 2014 Porsche Cayman are both saddled with unfair reputations. The STI with its huge wing and gold wheels has the title of the ultimate boy-racer. On the other hand, Porsche brand snobs look down on he base Cayman as just a wannabe 911. In reality, they are both pretty fantastic performance cars. But what would happen if the two of them lined up at a stoplight, and maybe the guy in the suit in the Cayman started throwing some revs at the young man in the STI? Automobile decided to find out in a recent video pitting the two stereotyped hot rods against each other in a standing-mile drag race.
In terms of raw numbers, they are surprisingly close. Both use flat engines and six-speed manual transmissions here, but the Subaru has more power and torque. However, the Porsche makes up for it with 300 pounds less weight. Neither should have a problem with traction either thanks to the STI's sophisticated all-wheel-drive setup, and the Cayman's mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout.
The comparable specs certainly show themselves in the real world for the race. We're not going to give away the winner here because it's too exciting, but let's just say the finish is very, very close. Scroll down to watch both of them shrug off their stereotypes and show off their real performance.
