Porsche 911 Turbo on 2040-cars
Mission, Texas, United States
Best deal in the country on a car that is a total rocket. 0-60 in a mere 3.7s and the amazing handling these cars are known for. VERY original unmolested southern car in a spectacular head-turning color combination. This coupe is finished in the desirable Macademia Metallic over supple tan leather interior. Nearly 137k MSRP with all the most desired options including: * Bose audio * Full power driver and passenger seating ($1200.00 Adaptive Sport Seating option) * Park Distance Control * Full leather package * Red seat belts * Power spoiler operation * Bi-xenon HID headlamps * Massive Turbo wheels * LED front turn signals * Sports Chrono Package * Porsche Active Suspension Management * Porsche Stability Management * Makassar wood trim on steering wheel and wood trim gear knob/e-brake handle * 480hp Twin Turbocharged engine w/6 speed manual gearbox And much more... This car has also had the antiquated PCM head unit tastefully replaced with a high end Pioneer Navigation head unit integrating perfectly with the Bose system and offering infinitely more sound shaping profiles, a high resolution display, Bluetooth phone and audio streaming and more. Thereby bringing this 2008 in line with the '09 model whose primary improvement was the PCM revision. This is a $1200.00 head unit. Vehicle has just about 64k miles (low for the year, driven daily) with the MAJOR engine service completed at 40k by Harper Porsche in Knoxville, TN who has looked after this car meticulously for the last 4 years. This service included belts, fluid changes, new spark plugs, and filters. DUE TO REPEATED INQUIRIES: 2008 TURBOS DO NOT HAVE A 60K SERVICE. PER PORSCHE'S MAINTENANCE INTERVAL STANDARDS (available as a PDF download from their own website) 2008 911 TURBOS HAVE MAJOR/SPARK PLUG SERVICE AT 40K INTERVALS ONLY. The service will not be due again until approximately 80k. Of course it goes without saying that everything works on the car with cold AC and hot heat. New tires all around. About the only notable wear on the car is some discoloration on the seat-back of the driver side seat. This can be easily re-dyed at an upholstery shop at low cost. If I have this re-dyed myself, *the price will go up*. CLEAN TITLE, ABSOLUTELY NO RUST as this is an all southern car and I HAVE DETECTED NO PAINTWORK anywhere on this superb 911, which also retains all its original glass. Just an all around SOLID driver with a clean southern history. Vehicle includes TWO near flawless keyless entry keys for both driver memories, all books, leather pouch and even the original window sticker listing a $136,225 MSRP.

2015 Porsche Macan Turbo
Mon, 24 Feb 2014I knew it was a softball question, but I asked it anyway. It's pretty standard for automakers to offer up some examples of competitors when they invite the media to drive a new vehicle for the first time. If not stated outright, it's just as standard for some journalist to query about the competitive set as soon as the Q&A begins. I knew full well that Porsche believes it has a valuable new niche to itself with the 2015 Macan (and especially with the Macan Turbo), but I wanted to hear the answer to the competitor cars question anyway.
Porsche CEO Matthias Müller didn't hesitate for a second to respond. With a half-smirk appropriate to an executive that is about to launch the (very probably) most profitable and best-selling product in his brand's lineup he chuckled, "Of course, I could be arrogant and say this car has no competitors..."
Arrogant? Well, the grinning Müller certainly didn't give off a humble vibe as he proceeded to count down a list of German and British utility vehicles from various classes that are clearly behind the pace of the Macan in either looks, luxury, or sporting prowess - Range Rover Sport, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLK among them.
Porsche, Hyundai and GM impress in J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, Fiat and Jeep don't
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Consumers continue to struggle with the advanced user interfaces and technologies being fitted to new cars, according to the latest J.D. Power Initial Quality Study. Overall, the industry average for problems per 100 vehicles climbed three percent, to 116 issues reported in the first 90 days of ownership.
Vehicles from the General Motors' family were dominant, with Buick, Chevrolet and GMC capturing more individual IQS segment awards than any other manufacturer. Despite its well-publicized issues, six GM vehicles (Buick Encore, Chevrolet Malibu, Chevy Silverado HD, Chevy Suburban, GMC Terrain and GMC Yukon) were given IQS awards for their respective segments.
Hyundai was ranked the best overall mass-market brand, with just 94 issues in every 100 vehicles reported in the first 90 days. Parent Hyundai Motor Company, meanwhile, trailed GM with five vehicles winning their segments, including the Hyundai Accent, Elantra and Genesis, as well as the Kia Cadenza and Sportage.
This is why we love the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer
Tue, 11 Nov 2014In the world of restomods, Singer Vehicle Designs is inarguably one of our absolute favorites. The company, founded by rocker Rob Dickinson, has made its name as an obsessive constructor of vintage, built-to-order Porsche 911s with modern internals and beautiful accouterments.
Xcar has put together a lengthy interview with Dickinson, covering the source of his fascination with the 911 and his passion for automotive design, before falling into his rock-and-roll days with his band Catherine Wheel. He also covers how he got into the world of modifying Porsches, rather than just restoring them. There's much, much more in the video, though, and we promise, you won't want to miss it.
Take a look.
