We have here a one owner 2008 Porsche Carrera S with a factory aero kit, in beautiful Basalt Black Metallic paint.
I purchased this car new in 2008 and it has been kept in a heated/cooled/carpeted garage in sunny Florida. The
list of options is extensive (see picture of the window stick and certificate of authenticity), but the following
outlines some of the more interesting ones.
Full leather interior with full power/heated passenger and driver side seats, and embossed Porsche logo in the
headrest.
Sport chrono package.
Porsche PASM stability management system.
Bose stereo system with CD and Sirius XM satellite radio.
Navigation system.
Carbon fiber accent package with dash and console inserts, plus carbon fiber door sills with lighted Carrera s
logo.
Porsche factory aero kit with GT3 style spoiler.
Fabspeed carbon fiber cold air box for increased horsepower.
19" Turbo wheels with less than 5,000 miles on new rubber all around.
Stainless steel exhaust system with auto-tuning valves.
This car is essentially factory stock with the exception of the aero kit, which significantly improves handling at
high speeds, and the cold air box which pairs nicely with the tuned exhaust, for greater horsepower and throttle
response. This car has been maintained at the local Porsche shop for all service including oil changes. In
addition, the car came with an Auto Butler package, so it was professionally washed at the local Porsche shop, and
fully detailed twice per year at the Porsche shop. The only blemish on the car (other than a few signs of normal
road grit) is on the passenger rear wheel, as seen the the photos. To this day I don't know the origin of the
blemish but it has no impact on the wheel whatsoever.
This is a beautiful super car. The sticker shows a retail price in excess of $100,000 and with the addition of the
aero kit ($10,000) and the cold air box ($1,000), this car's value tops $111,000. I am asking less than half this
amount. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask questions.

The 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona: What we learned, what we saw
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Two days after the flag dropped on the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, people are still trying to figure out what it might portend for the rest of the season. In 24 hours, two minutes and 24 seconds, 695 laps were completed by the car that crossed the line first. During that time, 67 cars began the race, 18 of them retired. There was that accident, and a red flag. There were supposedly slower classes beating supposedly faster classes. There were 16 caution periods, including that yellow flag. And then there was The Decision. And Then The Uproar. And then The Reversal.
There was also some pretty good racing, so let's have one last look at the weekend. Oh, and there was that 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO Series II...
If you want to skip the reading bits and go to the photos, there's a high-res gallery of 158 images above and a couple more below. Enjoy.
Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.
Despite premium carmakers going downmarket, luxury auto sales stick at 10-11%
Thu, 16 Jan 2014According to research conducted by global information company IHS Automotive, the leporine birthing of new models by luxury manufacturers over the past six years hasn't increased their market share in the US. Even as car sales reached 15.6 million units, IHS says what's happened instead is that luxury buyers are merely moving from one brand to another, moving from larger luxury vehicles into hot segments like compact luxury crossovers or leaving the market at the same rate as other buyers enter.
Whether broken out by makes or by segment, market share has rollercoastered inside a narrow band from 10.5 to 11.5 percent since "at least" 2008. Closer investigation reveals the shifting boundaries in the aspirational pond, with brands like Mercedes-Benz and Audi gaining territory as Lexus and Lincoln lost it, and Saab and Hummer were buried, dead, under it. One neat note is that Tesla has gone from a share of zip to .12 percent.
The subcompact and compact crossover segments show growth, with those little high-riders jumping from .3 percent to 1.16 percent of overall industry sales. Their rise, though, is concomitant with the decline of four other segments: compact and midsize cars and fullsize cars and SUVs. We think the next few years that will tell if the small-car expansion can overcome the large-car retraction, with a phalanx of smaller offerings like the CLA only recently hitting the market and others like the GLA, Macan and Q1 doing so in the near future.
