2005 Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
For more details email me at: charleysauage@juno.com . Beautiful, fast, german sports car. Has Bi-Xenon lights which simply illuminates the road almost as well as the
sun. Comfortable for daily driving yet when pushed makes a perfect weekend cruiser. Communicative steering unlike
any car at this price. Sharp and precise. Revs to 7200 rpm through a six speed manual. Light clutch with sharp
gear changes. Grips the road beautifully. Never seen a track in my possession which I am the second owner at 48k.
Never seen snow, ice, or salt. Climate control works great or open the windows and sunroof and take all the
outdoors in. Comfortable hugging seats that are heated. Has a front trunk (frunk) for all the groceries you could
need. Has two rear seats thought the one behind driver only usable for a small child or car seat and the other
side a slightly bigger child but still probably under 100 lbs. Averaged about 25 mpg between usual 1 hr casual
drive and 3-5 hr sportier driving. On interstate managed 31mpg. Has rear automatic spoiler that is hidden under
60 to keep the classic beautiful lines. Brakes so powerful you have better of had a light lunch. Makes a
beautiful noise throughout the whole rpm range and she really starts pulling at 3k rpm. Since 60% of the weight is
over the rear wheels with the engine hanging out behind the wheels the driving style is a little different. It is
a slow in fast out car. So, enter the corner slow but can get on the power sooner. Rewards almost every sense
every time you turn your left hand clockwise to start the car and take off. Subtle enough to not get cops
attention with its dark grey metallic paint and soft curvy body. There is a reason why this car is so praised in
almost all circles of people have driven them, just ask Clarkson, Hammond, or May. Car comes in at 3100 lbs being
a light weight compared to other BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audis.
Had full service at 60k consisting of oil, oil filters, air filter, cabin filter, trans flush, sparkplugs. Full
service at independent german tech center cost $550 at 60k. Told by dealer Clutch was replaced before bought at
48k. New alternator at 48k. New water pump, Rear brake pads, discs, sensors at 48k. Will need new rear tires after
summer driving season. Has two keys though each have broken cases, both unlock and front trunk buttons stopped
working on key fob but key still locks and unlocks car. Small scratch on side in front of wheel well. Couple
interior buttons labels worn. Seats have slight wear. Front has multiple rock chips with a couple on the hood.
Passenger side front bumper has some spots with paint missing.

A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan
Wed, 27 Nov 2013
He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.
2012 TechArt Porsche 911 is visually dazzling, both inside and out
Wed, 07 Mar 2012One way to ensure that your brand-new Porsche 911 (a.k.a. 991) won't look like the one in your neighbor's driveway is to give TechArt a call. The famed German tuner has rolled out its version of the latest Carrera and Carrera S at the Geneva Motor Show and trust us, it won't be mistaken for anything from the factory in Stuttgart.
Up front, TechArt has fitted its own unique two-part spoiler with integrated splitter while more aggressive side skirts adorn the rocker panels. The rear has a new lower diffuser, wrapped around the TechArt exhaust, and a large fixed rear wing (complete with an integrated third brake light). Look more closely to notice the subtle trim panels on the exterior mirrors and front headlights. The wheels are lightweight forged 20- and 21-inch alloys with matching paint on their rims.
Inside the heavily modified cabin are even more drastic enhancements (let's say TechArt has gone over the top). Don't let the aluminum pedals be a distraction as you inspect the black Alcantara and high-grade leather covering nearly every square inch. Flirting with gaudy, the dark upholstery is contrasted by vehicle-color-coordinated stitching and painted trim splashed throughout. However, the icing on the cake is an insanely thick TechArt three-spoke sports steering wheel.
Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach package does 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds
Mon, 18 Nov 2013Porsche marketers are having a field day with the 918 Spyder after some last-minute tuning improved the car's performance. They now say that it's so fast it's already beaten itself. Let us explain: Using a Weissach package-equipped 918 as an example (which reduces the plug-in hybrid supercar's weight through the deletion of some interior items, more generous use of carbon fiber and magnesium wheels), the car's previous official 0-62 miles-per-hour time of 2.8 seconds has been cut to 2.6. Additionally, 0-124 mph takes 7.2 seconds and 0-186 mph is dispatched in 19.9 seconds, times that were reduced by half a second and 2.1 seconds, respectively.
In all-electric mode, a non-Weissach pack 918 does 0-62 mph in 6.2 seconds (with the package, 6.1 seconds), down from 6.9 seconds. Efficiency is also improved thanks to the final tuning. The New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) rating of a Weissach pack-equipped car equates to 94 miles per gallon, up three mpg compared to before. That's pretty good for a car with 887 horsepower!
