Solid body numbers matching car with documented low miles and fresh engine. I purchased this car in 1993 and registered it and had it on the road for 3 years. Then I put the car in storage with my collection. I have over 13 classic car and breaking up my collection because of retirement. I put little miles on this car because I have 6 registered and can't drive them all. This car was completely restored in 1990 and the owner put a lot of money into it.

Has some minor issues with small chips on front bumper and wheel well chips along with paint lift spots on driver door and needs a small fender patch on near door. I have the paint code for matching after small repairs are made. I believe that the paint is good enough to paint over patch and look great to match rest of car. Trunk area is also very solid and rust free with battery box area perfect. Also has trunk rug with car. New door strikers for solid sound and nice body lines. Floors were patched when the resto was done. I would also put a small patch near one front torque bar to make perfect. Only rust on car is where shown in pics and described by me the best i can. DRIVE TRAIN: Original engine was freshened up right when I bought the car. I do this with all my cars. I wanted to have a perfect motor and had a Porsche do the engine. Work done: piston and barrels rubbed and new rings installed, valve seals, grind valves and seats, replace rod bearings, and tube seals. Carbs have been rejetted, K&N filters, tuned exhaust (great sound) Slick Shift kit short throw conversion for clean short crisp shifting. Very strong transmission 5 speed. Struts were replace. Brakes need to checked out for one appears to be dragging, rebuild kit recommended for one or two to make safe and strong. Been sitting for a long time so there is always minor things to do and check. For this car to run and to run right, clean carb bowls and put fresh gas in tank then turn key and have a ball. Real head turner. With the minor repairs to do now or later, enjoy the car for the summer and fall and do what you think is needed for a cosmetic and mechanical repair winter project. When your done you will have a $35,000 plus car that is taking off in value. Email me for any questions, Greg No Warranty sold as is-where is.

The mid-engine Porsche backstory
Thu, 09 Oct 2014As an automaker's identity evolves over years, its signature becomes defined by any number of factors - heritage (Mercedes-Benz), image (Lamborghini), or market share (Toyota). In the case of Porsche, it was an engineering quirk that forged the German company's most enduring character trait.
Porsche would not have survived - let alone, thrived - in today's saturated landscape had it not been for the 911, and that slope-tailed sports car wouldn't have sprung to life without its predecessor, the 356. While phenomenal success of those rear-engine icons built the company, forays into the mid-engine configuration have played a significant part in establishing the brand's identity.

Porsche recalls new 911 models over exhaust pipe issues
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Porsche, though the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, announced a voluntary recall on about 2,200 911 Carrera and Carrera 4 models built during the 2012 and 2013 model years. On cars equipped with the standard exhaust system it was found that the tailpipes could separate from the mufflers and become dangerous road debris; models that added the optional sport exhaust system are not included in this recall.
Affected vehicles were built between March and November of last year, but there have been no reports of the problem on any customer-owned vehicles. Porsche first noticed a cracked tailpipe weld on a test vehicle back in May, and since then has found similar problems on other internally owned vehicles, all with more than 25,000 miles on the clock. To fix the problem, dealers will be replacing the mufflers. Scroll down to read the official notice.
Porsche Panamera Turbo S vs Ariel Atom Supercharged in unlikely drag battle
Thu, 01 May 2014David versus Goliath battles are always an enticing proposition, because they offer the chance to watch scrappy underdogs take on their bigger rivals. Evo has set up just such a battle with its latest drag race between the minimalist Ariel Atom 3.5 Supercharged (Ariel Atom 3 pictured below) and the plush Porsche Panamera Turbo S.
The two cars couldn't be more different. The Atom personifies Lotus founder Colin Chapman's well-known axiom: "Simplify, then add lightness." Most of the car doesn't even have a body; it's just an exposed frame with a 310 horsepower supercharged Honda four-cylinder mounted behind the driver. On the other side, there's the Panamera Turbo S. In the latest version, it packs 570 hp and 553 pound-feet from its 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8 and it features all-wheel drive. Of course, all of that comes with a significant weight penalty.
Off the line, the differences are even more apparent. The Atom doesn't have any of the Porsche's technological wizardry, so launching it challenges the driver to build the revs and let out the clutch just right. The car screams like a banshee as it goes, though. The Porsche is the exact opposite. Its launch control system lets the driver hold down the brake, get on the throttle and accelerate away in just the right way.
