2002 Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
O Fallon, Illinois, United States
Feel free to email: carlicaahlfield@rumpypumpy.net . This is a pampered Carrera 4S with a number of upgrades and modifications. I am a PCA member, this is my fifth
Porsche, have owned this vehicle for 4 years (I'm the 3rd owner, but have all paperwork), and it has lived a very
sheltered life. No winters, no rain, covered when not in use. Upgrades/Modifications:
Factory Wheels Upgraded to 19" HRE's with New Michelin Pilot Sport 2 Tires ($10,000)
Professionally Installed K40 Laser/Radar Detector/Defender ($2,000)
IMS Bearing Upgrade with Lowered Oil Pan in 2013 ($5,000) - I would STRONGLY Advise Not Buying a 996/Early 997
that hasn't had this performed
FabSpeed X-Pipe Catalytic Converter Upgrade Earlier in 2015 ($3,000)
Pioneer Double Din AVH-X5500BHS Stereo with DVD as well as Review Camera + Porsche OEM Surround Faceplate
($1,200)
GT3 Rear Wing and Front Spoiler with Rear Badge Delete (I estimate it cost the former owner well over $8,000)
MotorSport OEM Porsche Competition Clutch (Installed with IMS, Should Last Life of Vehicle, or a VERY long
time)
Clear Colored Side Markers (IMO Looks Much Sharper than the Orange)
Competition Brake Pads (Stops on a Dime)
Carbon Fiber Laminate on Door Sills & Center Counsel (This is not the cheap peel and stick, although is
removable)
Driver Seat Bottom Bolster, Passenger Seat Bottom Bolster Leather Replaced with OEM Replacement in 2015
($1,200)
After-market Shifter from a Company out of Stutgart that make a much nicer shifter than stock (also shift grid
is backlit LED, looks great at night)
Armrest/Center Storage Drawer Covered in Leather
3M Clear Bra on Quarter Panels
For what it's worth, although this is not a GT3, most people think it is (there's a big difference - including in
cost)...although that was never the intent. It gets compliments everywhere I go, and the car drives phenomenally.
Please note that this is the metallic black (Basault), that was a $2k upcharge over the regular black (looks
awesome at day and night). I'll be the first to admit this car is a bit over-invested in, however, outside normal
maintenance (oil, filter, pads, etc.) - this car has been set up for years of enjoyment. Whoever ends up with this
vehicle is going to be a very lucky buyer!

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show
Mon, 05 Mar 2012The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.
Gemballa reveals new Porsche 991-based GT convertible
Sun, 16 Sep 2012Gemballa went through the ringer last year, but rebounded with products that signal a complete turnaround. The latest is the recently-released Porsche 911 Carrera S with a Gemballa GT aerodynamics and technology package. Aero-wise, it includes carbon fiber additions beginning with a front bumper wearing the classic Gemballa air intake design and a lower, angrier splitter. New side skirts run from wheel to wheel, the final piece being a rear bumper in three sculpted horizontal sections featuring a rear diffuser tucked between six rectangular exhaust tips.
No engine mods have been made, but the technology part of the tune - springs that are 30 millimeters shorter yet still able to work with the PASM system - is claimed to make the car faster. Bringing things to a halt is a new Brembo brake system hiding behind 21-inch GForged wheels that are lighter than Porsche's standard 20-inchers.
The Gemballa GT aero kit runs €19,860 ($26,070 U.S.), which includes paint and installation if you happen to be in Germany, and we're assuming that includes the suspension modification, brakes and sport exhaust. The GForged wheels are another €9,895 ($12,989 U.S.) depending on your choice of tire. Check out the press release below for more info, and the photo gallery above for all the angles.
Former Porsche CEO Wiedeking indicted over VW takeover bid
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Do you recall the failed efforts by Porsche to take over Volkswagen? According to a Bloomberg report, former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above) and ex-CFO Holger Haerter have finally been charged with market manipulation over the exercising of options as part of the German sportscar manufacturer's ill-fated attempt to take over the much larger VW. That failed bid eventually resulted in the reverse coming true - VW swallowing Porsche.
The charges leveled by Stuttgart prosecutors come after a three-year investigation centered around allegations that Porsche execs made a concerted effort to increase the company's share in VW to 75 percent in preparation for a hostile takeover. Porsche had previously told its investors on at least five occasions that it had no intention to buy VW.
Portions of the investigation have subsided, according to prosecutors, citing an inability to prove certain improprieties with a "necessary degree of certainty." The number of charges is down to 5 from a previous 14 counts regarding "information-based market manipulation."
