2002 Porsche Carrera Cabriolet Convertible
This 911 has a perfect body. And new tires. Inside is in great shape. The thing is I live in a small town and I'm tired of having to drive 2 hours one way for maintenance. Last year the motor failed. I had a shop sent the motor off. He sent it to Motor Meister in Southern CA which is a horrible place that filed bankruptcy. He replaced the motor with a used one with 41K miles and put an upgraded LN IMS bearing in it. This cost me 13K. The shop I got the work done was not happy about having to replace the motor and because I was to stupid to get the paper work when I picked it up he won't answer my calls about any documents on it or talk to me about it knocking. (He is 3 hours one way from me). I just put new tires on this year and had it aligned. It has always drove and handled like a super car should. I'm afraid to drive it because I'm afraid it will break down in it's current condition. Therefore I won't let anyone test drive it. You can buy it based on it having a bad motor now. If it does not bring what I'm asking I'll fix it. The way I look at it is with a total rebuild from a reputable shop that seems to run $7500-$10000 and the body looking good. You can have a 911 that looks as good as any with a better than new motor. You see I put painted light covers on it to give it an updated look. Which alone makes it look clean and better than most 996's. The top is in great shape and everything else worked when I parked it. You can tell by it conditions that it has been well cared for. The body has just over 100,000 miles. If you bid on it be able to pay for it and pick it up within two weeks. 20% down within 72 hours. Do not call if you are out of the country and have some kind of strange way of paying. I want someone to pick it up with that full payment. Clean title The only trade I would consider is a Lotus Elise in great running shape because my local shop can maintain them. Buy is responsible for pickup 731-607-5266 Thanks |

Porsche close to fix for 911 GT3 engine fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014It looks like 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 drivers might actually get to drive their cars again soon. Reports of fires affecting the track-ready Germans first began about a month ago. Then, a few days later, the automaker confirmed two of the five alleged blazes and said owners shouldn't drive their cars until further notice. Porsche then went so far as to offer to pick up the GT3s and transport them to the nearest dealer until the problem was identified and a fix was found. Finally, there appears to be a repair.
"We know the reason and the problem-solving measures. We're testing them," said Porsche CEO Matthias Müller to Bloomberg. The technical fix will be released to owners shortly.
The recall affects all 785 GT3s that have been sold so far, but there have been no reported injuries caused by the fires. When it first announced the safety campaign, Porsche said: "Internal studies to determine the cause of the engine damage have not been completed yet."
Jay Leno plugs himself into Porsche's 918 Spyder
Mon, 24 Mar 2014As one of the greatest sports car manufacturers of all time, when Porsche puts out a new, ultra-exclusive hypercar, enthusiasts tend to stand up and take note. Jay Leno is no exception, and now, the funnyman is finally getting his time with awesome 918 Spyder.
With his 1963 Porsche 356 and his 2005 Carrera GT flanking a Liquid Silver 918, Leno takes us through the basics of this plug-in hybrid roadster alongside Daniel Eastman of Porsche North America. Following the chat, Leno and Eastman take the German-plated car through the streets of California, testing it in a number of modes and even going on a short, all-electric freeway cruise.
If you're looking to learn more about the 918, or to just here its glorious gas engine at work, you'll want to scroll down and take a look at the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
Porsche celebrates Le Mans return with Martini edition 911
Tue, 10 Jun 2014If we've said it once, we've said it a hundred times - but we'll gladly say it again: there are few racing liveries as iconic as Martini. And while those stripes have adorned countless Lancia and Ford rally cars, grand prix racers (like the latest Williams) and even speedboats, they remain inexorably tied to Porsche. Fortunately that point is not lost on Porsche itself, which has lately put them on its own 918 Spyder, race-spec 911 and all manner of merchandise. And this is the latest.
To celebrate its return to Le Mans this year, Porsche Exclusive is offering this special Martini Racing Edition. It's based on the 911 Carrera S, which means the more potent 3.8-liter flat six with 400 horsepower, but upgrades, as you might have guessed, with a whole mess of Martini Racing stripes and logos, along with the Aerokit Cup front and rear spoilers. The badges and stripes abound inside as well, where you'll also find such optional extras as the Porsche Communication Management system, Bose audio and black leather electric sport seats.
Porsche is offering the 911 Carrera S Martini Racing Edition in either white or black, but unfortunately not in our market - just in Europe, China and Latin America. Those who miss out will (in certain markets anyway) be able to order the decal set separately though. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
