This car's performance is outstanding.  0 to 60 in under 3 seconds, Large turbos spool to 1.1 bar,  Acceleration reminiscent of a sport bike. It really drives you back into the seat when you step on it. Just tested a 2012 Turbo S and this car is faster.  Cornering grip is outstanding with wide, low profile tires, all wheel drive, full supsension upgrade.  The car needs nothing.  History of upgrading and rebuilding make the mileage much less relevant for this car than others with comparable mileage.  It is essentially an all wheel drive GT2 (although the GT2's only recently reached 600 HP).  All systems function perfectly.  The stereo is a revelation, the best I've heard in a car.  JL Audio amps, gold connectors, etc. On numerous occasions, I've heard instruments on familiar songs that I never knew where there because of the clarity of this system.  It includes radio, cd and iPod. The body looks new thanks to the repaint, new windshield, etc. The interior is very clean.  Guards red body with tan interior is a classic Porsche combination.  The Blinder Laser Jammer has saved me from numerous tickets.  Clear bra protects the new paint work.  This vehicle represents exceptional value at the asking price.  I am selling reluctantly due to impending hip surgery, need to move to automatic transmission.

Porsche reveals new LMP1 racecar testing ahead of 2014 Le Mans debut

Wed, 12 Jun 2013

Getting ready for its triumphant return to the premier racing class of Le Mans, Porsche has released a handful of images showing its new LMP1 racecar testing. Porsche hasn't run a car in the Prototype class at 24 Hours of Le Mans since 2009, but this racecar - still veiled in secrecy - will be expected to battle against the Audi and Toyota LMP1 Prototypes to help bring Porsche its 17th Le Mans victory.
Aside from knowing that it will use a hybrid powertrain to meet LMP1 rules, there are no other details about the car... including its name or potential sponsors. In the meantime, Porsche has set up a microsite, called Mission 2014, to share its extensive history racing at Le Mans. Also, be sure to check out some of the past videos Porsche has released as it gears up for its reborn LMP1 program.

Porsche to develop new line of engines for next Panamera

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

When the second generation of the four-door Porsche Panamera launches, it will likely be riding a new platform, complete with an all-new family of V6 and V8 engines, according to a report coming out of the UK.
Autocar reports that the so-called MSB platform will likely underpin the Panamera, and it could be shared with Bentley, provided the Volkswagen-owned, British-built brand commits to the architecture. As for the engines, it's reported that they'll have a sportier character than the V6s and V8s being built for Volkswagen and Audi's vehicles.
"Porsche will have its own new V8 that will be common to the new MSB platform," Porsche's chief engineer, Wolfgang Hatz, said. "It's a family for the next 10 years of cars." Whether the V8 and V6 will be used outside of the Panamera line, though, remains unclear. There's also no mention of what place turbocharging would have with the new engines.

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Don't know how we missed this, but you don't have to play around with the 2014 Porsche Cayman configurator to see the new coupe in action; Porsche has given us more than two beautiful minutes of Cayman footage to enjoy.
The partners in the on-screen tango are the 275-horsepower base Cayman and the 325-hp Cayman S. If you like to keep track of such things, the former starts at $52,600, the latter at $63,800, plus $950 destination for each. Watching a video like the one below, however, is free.
