Low Reserve on this is beautiful Viola Purple Carrera 4 Convertible. I have owned and taken care of this vehicle for about 14 years! It has nice after market wheels, 3A Racing seats, and an SCCA approved ( bolt in ) DAS sport roll bar ( all shown in pictures ). It has after market strut tower braces for better handling, Bilstein coil struts, Carrera Turbo tie rod ends, a performance chip and the normal fuel map chip will be provided. A K&N style high flow airbox and may a few other odds and end I forgot about over the years. It is very fun to drive!
There are a few minor paint chips on the hood and maybe a small scratch or two here and there, there is a small area in front of the right rear wheel that has lost a bit of the clearcoat, there is one minor dent over the left tail light, and the fog light lenses are cracked. The third brake light lens cracked and is missing in the picture ( Car detailer broke it! I have the part and will install it ), there is a 3 or 4 inch crack on the lowest right side of the windshield, it has been the same size for 5 years ( a bird flew into it! ) and does not affect the view out the windshield. It had a minor fender bender and the passenger door got dinged and completely replaced about 10 years ago, no other major damage. The Carfax shows a non-collision indecent before I owned it. I beleive it was broken into since it is non-collision, and had no apparent damage. There is a small crack on the top dash. If it sits for a month or two the battery might drain. ( I am trying to disclose anything or all I know about the car )
I have never raced the car ( the roll bar is due to the mountain road I used to drive on for safety ( rt 9 Saratoga, many hairpins, drop-offs, fun driving! ) , since its a convertible ). The roof is good and lowers and raises fine and is water tight( I did glue some material inside to an area I thought would wear while rasing and lowering it, but it turns out its fine after 10 years since I last replace the roof ). It is always garaged, never driven in the snow, and very rarely in the rain. It just passed its most recent required smog check less than a week ago ( of this posting ). I can provide original black leather power seats and Carrera cup wheels at an additional price. It is a great running, strong running Porsche and looks stunning for its age! I always get lots of compliments when I drive it! Its time to sell it as it pretty much sits in my garage all year until I need to re-register and smog it! Roughly 400 of the C4 Cabs were sold in 1993 in the U.S. probably only a few in this color!

Autocar pits Porsche 911 Turbo S against Formula 4 racer
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There is a long-running argument among performance car fans: power vs. weight. In one corner you get cars generally with small engines making modest numbers but able to corner like they are telepathic, and in the other there are big thumping mills that are rocketships in a straight line but lumber in the turns. Autocar takes an interesting look this continuum in a recent video pitting a 552-hp Porsche 911 Turbo S against a 185-hp Formula 4 racecar. It hopes to find whether the Porsche's huge power advantage is enough to defeat the better grip and aero offered by the nimble racer.
There's no doubt that the Porsche is an utterly fantastic road car. The 911 Turbo looks mean with all of those intakes to suck in cool air, and it backs up the posture with huge amounts of grip available thanks to its all-wheel drive-system. However, at 3,538 pounds, it's a bit of a porker compared to the 1,135-pound Formula 4 car. The open-wheel car boasts just a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder from Ford and a six-speed sequential-manual gearbox, but it has loads of downforce to make up for it.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the formula car wins in the corners. After all, that's what it's made for. So do you think the massive horsepower superiority of the Porsche is enough to even the playing field? Scroll down to watch the video and find out, and even if you're not curious of the winner the 911 does some mean powerslides.
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.
Porsche Cayman S and Caterham 7 go head to head on the drag strip
Fri, 27 Jun 2014We recently saw the standard Porsche Cayman go up against a Subaru WRX STI in a one-mile drag race with surprising results. Apparently, Evo had a similar idea of evaluating the Cayman's quickness. However, it opted for the more powerful S model and chose a flyweight Caterham Roadsport 140 as the challenger. Will the results of this battle be as close at the end of the kilometer-long (0.62-mile) drag?
Neither of these are cars you'd usually associate with drag racing, but they are nearly evenly matched. Evo selected them based on power-to-weight ratio, with the Caterham offering a scant 140 horsepower in a lithe 1,213-pound package. The Porsche is a quite svelte 2,910 pounds but has 325 hp to haul it around.
Of course, power-to-weight ratio isn't everything. There are a ton of other variables like aerodynamics and gearing that play a huge role, as well. Can the little Caterham's weight advantage overcome the better aero and additional power of the Porsche? Scroll down watch the video and find out.
