1977 Porsche 911. Car has a Strosek wide body kit so it appears similar to a 930 turbo. Original North Carolina car, tub is rust free, even the battery pan is in excellent condition. Car has been driven very little in last ten plus years. Starting with the rust free tub this Porsche has beautiful royal blue fresh paint (10/12) new struts, turbo tie rods, ball joints, New suspension bushings (combination of Weltmeister and stock) and shock absorbers. Later model Porsche carrera 18' wheels running Pirellis with less than 1000 miles on them. Front brake calipers rebuilt and new brakes (08/13). New Porsche 930 steering wheel, shifter coupler bushings and dash light bulbs. New later style headlights and bulbs.
Engine is a 1978 3.0 liter, a definitely superior engine from the stock 2.7. The engine has been upgraded with Carrera tensioners, new turbo valve covers, pop-off valve, alternator, 900 CCA battery (08/13) complete fluid replacement (06/13). Swepco 201 trans fluid, oil change and new air filter. Dynaflow exhaust and newer SSI heat exchangers. Cannot verify that the engine has been rebuilt but runs very strong with a wide power band. Alignment done (08/13).
Interior is in very good condition, tan with original carpet, no tears/rips in seats or headliner. Newer CD stereo system. Odometer shows less than 69k mileage but cannot verify it is accurate. Based on local Porsche expert opinion he stated the overall body condition would be consistent with a car with this mileage.
This car is 36 years old and in overall excellent condition but it does have a few minor issues that I have not yet had the time to sort out. My Porsche was bought as a project but was side tracked due to health. The tach and sunroof do not work. It may be a switch, driving lights are not currently wired and like all Porsches has minor oil leak. Excellent driving car, it has a 930 turbo look without the cost of investment and upkeep. This is a solid car that draws lots of gazes and compliments.

UK Porsche GT3 owners are irked that other countries are getting better deals
Sun, 27 Apr 2014Porsche 911 GT3 owners in the United Kingdom are up in arms, but it's not for the reason you might think. Okay, well it sort of is. See, it's been fairly well documented that 911 GT3 owners have had their cars grounded over concerns that the engines could catch fire. Porsche is rushing to build and install replacement engines in all 800 or so cars, scattered around the globe.
This isn't really the issue. The problem for these British owners is compensation. While the car's have been grounded, car notes still need to be paid. To deal with this, American GT3 owners are being paid $2,000 per month. German owners get 175 euros ($242 at today's rates) per day while a GT3 owner in Dubai is allegedly receiving $12,000 (it's unclear if this is a lump sum or a monthly payment). Basically, if you aren't able to drive your six-figure super car, you shouldn't have to pay for it. Seems reasonable regardless of the make.
British owners, though, aren't being compensated, and for 30 to 35 owners, that's not acceptable. They've banded together and are led by Sunil Mehra.
Son of Porsche 911 designer recalls 1963 Frankfurt debut
Wed, 16 Oct 2013
The Goodwood Revival is described by its presenters as the greatest motorsport racing party of the year. We often focus heavily on the motorsports, but you can't forget about the party. For the first preview of the new 911 Turbo in the UK, Porsche recreated its booth from the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963 - the time and place of the original 911's public debut.
Porsche's cameras also caught up with Mark Porsche, the great grandson of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and son of the late Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche, who oversaw the design of the 911. Mark Porsche admires the 911's friendly design, which is set off by the round headlights, and says his mother, who was at the original Frankfurt booth in 1963, was milling around the booth at Goodwood - no doubt taking a trip down memory lane.
Audi and Porsche squabble over future product platforms
Tue, 22 Jul 2014In the buildup to the 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans, Audi delivered an amusing video that worked on the playful rivalry between the German brand and its favorite frenemy, Porsche. We called it sibling rivalry, and at the time, it may have been just that. But just like sibling rivalries, it's all fun and games until someone gets hurt, and that's just what seems to be about to happen in the formerly peaceful Volkswagen Group family.
A new report from Automobile calls out the growing animosity between Porsche, who is backed up by Bentley, and Audi, whose primary ally is Lamborghini. No blows have actually been thrown, although there is a fair amount of "he said, she said" going on.
As Porsche tells it, for example, the new global fullsize SUV architecture being developed by Audi isn't up to snuff, citing size and structure issues, as well as an inability to accommodate a wide variety of engines.
