I am the original owner of this factory ordered 2005 997S coupe with six a speed manual transmission. I am meticulous about maintenance and cleanliness, I am a non-smoker, I do not own a pet, and I am a ten year plus PCA member. This 911 is 100% stock, has never been tracked, abused or modified. Since taking delivery, my father and I have been the only drivers of this wonderful car. It is not my daily driver, but it is driven regularly. The exterior color is Seal Grey Metallic. The interior color is Stone Grey. It has the following options: Stone Grey Full Leather; Stone Grey Floor Mats; Power Seat Package; Self Dimming Mirrors; Park Assist System; Navigation; Bose Sound Package. All maintenance is up to date, and the following maintenance work has been performed within the last eleven months: oil & filter change, brake fluid change, coolant change, clean body drains, clean front radiators, replace cabin air filter, four wheel alignment. In addition, the following repairs/updates have been performed in the last nine months: Install LN IMS update kit; Install new RMS; Install new starter & alternator wiring harness; Replace intake plenum bellows. I have purchased and carry (in the boot) a 986 spare wheel, tire and jack, which I will include with the purchase of the vehicle; it is shown in the photos and it will fit this car. Please note that this car is eight years old and does have some minor cosmetic flaws, all of which are shown and specifically delineated in the listing photos. They are as follows: There are two scratches (one noticeable, one not) on the front bumper; There are two small scratches on the passenger side of the hood (one is a hairline scratch and one is a very small chip); There are two small dimples on the driver side of the car (one on the front quarter panel and one on the rear quarter panel, the one on the front is noticeable, the one on the rear is very slight); There are three very small chips on the passenger side door near the handle; There are two small indentations in the back of the passenger side rear seat (from a child seat which I just removed, so it is likely that these will dissipate on their own). I have, and will provide to the winning bidder at pickup, the original owner's manuals in their Porsche pouch, the original window sticker, all original keys and a Porsche certificate of authenticity. Please note that this is a used vehicle in excellent condition and it is being sold as is with no express or implied warranty of any kind. The winner is solely and fully responsible for picking up the vehicle. A $500 deposit via PayPal will be required within 24 hours of the auction close, and payment in full by cash, official bank check or wire transfer is due at or prior to pick up, but in no event later than five days following the auction close. I have tried to list all of the relevant information about this vehicle and its history, and I am very straightforward as you will see from my prior listings and feedback. Please feel free to email any questions you may have, I will try to answer them as quickly as possible. I also own a set of “Turbo Twist” wheels from a 996 with brand new Blizzak snow tires and 5mm spacers necessary to fit them on the 997S. I would sell those separately if the winning bidder is interested. Good luck and thank you for your consideration.

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder
Mon, 14 Apr 2014That title about says it all. This is a hot lap of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, with Porsche Works Driver Patrick Long at the wheel of a Porsche 918 Spyder. The camera is basically showing us everything that Long sees, making this not just one of the coolest 918 videos we've seen, but also one of the neatest laps of CoTA.
As Long peers through the bends, so will you. You'll see him fight the wheel, and find out just how difficult it is to hustle this hybrid hypercar around a world-class track at speed. It's pretty darn entertaining. There are also a few scattered shots of the 918's exterior just to break up the interior awesomeness, although we aren't exactly complaining about those. Take a look below for the short video from Porsche.
Porsche Cayman, Boxster caught in GTS trim
Sat, 18 Jan 2014A few months ago, we reported on some leaked information from an internal presentation for upcoming Porsche models. This included details about the Macan and the 911 Targa, which we now know to be true, but there was also talk about GTS versions of the Cayman and Boxster.
Well, it appears we're now getting our first look at these GTS models, as our spy photographers have just snapped a pair of Porsche prototypes out testing - one Cayman and one Boxster.
Right off the bat, we can see that both GTS-branded cars will get a slightly tweaked exterior with new fascias (bringing LED daytime running lights to the Cayman) and air diffusers at the rear. The true gem of these cars will be the added horsepower to the tune of 340 horsepower - a 15-hp bump. A manual transmission will likely be standard, as will Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM).
China bans military license plates on luxury autos
Wed, 01 May 2013Driving a vehicle with a military license plate in China provides many privileges. Legally reserved for official vehicles only, the designation apparently allows drivers to enjoy special liberties on the roads, including breaking traffic laws, filling up with free fuel and receiving light-and-siren escorts through congested cities. So attractive are the benefits that there is a secondary market for used legal and counterfeit plates - especially among those wealthy enough to afford luxury cars. But all of that is reportedly coming to an end, as President Xi Jinping, chairman of the Central Military Commission, is on a mission to fight corruption in his country.
A new license plate system goes into effect today, and it is designed to "maintain social harmony, stability and the reputation of the military," says the PLA Daily, the armed forces' official newspaper. While the abuse has been going on for many years, the internet has put the spotlight on the bad behavior, and the negative press does not represent the morals and true colors of the armed forces, say officials.
While military-plated Porsche drivers have been singled out as offenders, Bloomberg notes that all vehicles with engine displacements above 3.0 liters and with a sticker price in excess of about $73,000, will be banned from receiving military plates. This includes vehicles from Audi, Cadillac, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln and the Volkswagen Phaeton. Even if drivers are savvy enough to circumvent the new issuing system, the military has put technology at toll gates to catch users of counterfeit plates. There has been no word on the punishment if caught.
