1966 Porsche 912 - 3-gauge, 5-speed, Very Original Car on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:116005

Stanwood, Washington, United States

Due to being a very original Seattle, WA (no salt on the roads) car, this early 3-gauge, 5-speed, numbers matching 912 has been sympathetically refurbished, rather than restored. The paint was tired and cracked, so car was stripped to metal and repainted its original correct color. This is a rust-free, accident-free, hit-free car with all new rubber seals. The interior is completely original and in very good condition including very hard-to-find rubber mats, carpets and upholstery, glass panels all have their 'Sekurit' stamps, spare tire has its original very rare valve stem reinforcing clip. Some carpet is missing near the right rear seat area and the driver's side rocker panel. If desired, we will install a new correct carpet kit for $950.00. Chrome is all original and shines beautifully. Original owner upgraded the factory radio to a period AM/FM Blaupunkt radio.

Paperwork includes original sales invoice, original Service Book, original title, extensive maintenance records from the original owner, and Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche Cars North America. Original toolkit also included.

Engine was rebuilt and new clutch installed by highly regarded (Denny) Aker's Porsche of Seattle at 86,287mi., and has rolled up 29k trouble-free miles since rebuild. The car also received its routine maintenance and repairs by this same firm most of its life. The engine pulls smoothly and strongly. The braking system was completely rebuilt last year and pulls down evenly and strongly. Gauges, lights, and wipers work well. The paint just shines beautifully. Suspension and steering are tight and responsive.

This is an outstanding looking car that would be a reliable daily use vehicle, should that be desired.

50th Anniversary Porsche 911 vs. Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a battle of beauty, brawn

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

There can't really be a loser between the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R and the Porsche 911 50th Anniversary Edition. One might be better than the other, but if you're behind the wheel of either of them, you can't complain. In a new video, Motor Trend takes on the difficult task of determining which one of these European powerhouses is the best, not just in terms of raw performance, but also how they actually feel to drive.
The Porsche 911 is one of the perennial favorites of the motoring world. It just doesn't go away and always seems capable of challenging the top vehicles in its class. In this video, Motor Trend takes a look at the 50th Anniversary Edition model that celebrates that heritage while boosting power somewhat over the standard version.
The F-Type Coupe is an incredibly masculine car, MT describing it as "a British Corvette." The coupe's exterior lines are tautly stretched over its athletic body, and it's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 sounds like a demon's growl. Jaguar seems to have things right with its latest sports car.

New details mooted about Porsche's '988' Ferrari rival

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

We could be on the verge of a big expansion at everyone's favorite rear-engined German sports car manufacturer. Porsche is allegedly preparing a four-car assault that will be led by a proper challenger to the Ferrari 458 Italia (sorry 911).
Code-named "988," the new model will reportedly feature a mid-engined layout and, get this: a flat-8. Autocar, which has the story, expects that engine to displace about 4.0 liters, while the car itself will draw styling inspiration from the 918 Spyder. 600 ponies and over 400 super-accessible pound-feet of torque should be on tap with the new mill.
Joining the 988's supposed eight-cylinder is a new family of four- and six-cylinder boxer engines that Autocar claims will have a focus on power density and fuel economy. These new mills will be available in naturally aspirated, turbocharged and hybrid forms.

Porsche gives Nick Murray exactly what he deserved [w/video]

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

The tale of Nick Murray and his lemon Porsche 911 appears to have come to a satisfactory end. As noted in the original story about Murray, he and Porsche Cars North America met and came to a resolution. However, we didn't know exactly what that meant, until now.
Murray has created a new video explaining that PCNA offered to buy back the car at full price or give him an exact replacement for it. This was exactly what he was asking for. Murray remains pro-Porsche in the new video. "I am definitely considering reordering a Porsche 911," he says.
Porsche also posted a message on its Facebook page that clarified the situation. "We at Porsche have always sought excellence in all that we do. We know you expect it of us. And when we don't meet that standard, we make every effort to improve," said a portion of the note.
