THIS IS A 1971 PROSCHE 914. IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT ALL THE ADDS ON EBAY, THEY ALL HAVE THE HISTORICAL DATA ON THESE CARS SO I'LL JUST DESCRIBE THIS ONE HERE. THIS 914 HAS BEEN PAINTED BLACK AND DETAILS VERY WELL. IT HASN'T BEEN DOCTORED MUCH SINCE THERE ARE 3 SMALL IMPERFECTIONS ON THE BODY TO SPEAK OF. THEY ARE ALL RUST SPOTS, SMALL BUT THERE JUST UNDERNEATH THE PAINT. THE LARGEST IS IN THE PICTURE OF THE TRUNK, JUST RIGHT OFF CENTER, THE OTHER OF NOTE IS JUST BESIDE THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP, YOU CAN SEE IT JUST TO THE RIGHT OF THE LAMP IN THE FRONT VIEW. THEY DO NOT PUSH IN SO I HAVEN'T TRIED TO CHANGE THEM, THEY ARE JUST BUBBLING UNDER THE PAINT. THERE IS VERY LITTLE SURFACE RUST ANYWHERE ELSE INSIDE THE CAR, EVERYTHING IS SOLD. THE CARPETS APPEAR TO BE ORIGINAL AND THE INTERIOR IS INTACT. THE DASH HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR, ALL GUAGES AND LIGHTS WORK. THE RADIO IS NOT ORIGINAL AND WORKS AS WELL. ALL THE GLASS AND LENSES ARE HERE, A FEW MINOR CRACKS IN A COUPLE LENSES, VERY INSIGNIFICANT. THE CAR OVERALL IS VERY SOLID, AND PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. I DROVE IT RECENTLY, PROBABLY THE LONGEST IT'S SEEN IN YEARS TO GET DETAILED AND WAS SOLID. THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY AND I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES WHATSOEVER. I BELIEVE THE ORIGINAL JACK IS HERE IN THE PICTURE, AND THE SPARE AS WELL. A VERY WELL KEPT CAR. THE ODOMETER WORKS AND IS RIGHT AT 89,000 MILES. THE CAR HAS A 2.0 LABEL, AND I HAVEN'T CONFIRMED BUT I WAS TOLD IT IS A 2.0 MOTOR. THERE ARE PICTURES AND IT FITS THE COMPARTMENT WELL AND RUNS VERY SMOOTH, SO I REALLY DIDN'T CHECK IF IT WAS CHANGED.

Porsche gives Nick Murray exactly what he deserved [w/video]
Sat, 19 Apr 2014The 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.
Porsche reveals first Macan driving and manufacturing footage
Fri, 13 Dec 2013One of the more anticipated offerings of the upcoming year, Porsche's sporty baby Cayenne, the 2015 Macan, has already earned nods of approval from a number of Autoblog staffers. We named it one of the top five debuts at last month's LA Auto Show, citing its 400-horsepower turbocharged engine and other sporty bits as good reasons to get excited about Stuttgart's latest.
And while our first test may be many months away, we're keeping our ears to the ground for any information on Porsche's compact crossover. We're especially keen on stuff like this - our first look at the new model in motion and undergoing assembly at its Leipzig plant. Both are shorter videos, and while there's little of the glorious engine noise we've already been teased with, the videos do offer a great look at the handsome Macan on the road, as well as glimpse at Porsche's state-of-the-art manufacturing operations.
Scope out the videos below and let us know what you think.
New J.D. Power Initial Quality Study puts Porsche, GM in spotlight
Wed, 19 Jun 2013J.D. Power and Associates has released its annual Initial Quality Study, and this year, Porsche and General Motors took the spotlight. The study, which asks new car owners to report problems experienced during the first 90 days of ownership, found that overall, the industry averages 113 problems per 100 vehicles.
Porsche managed a score of just 80 problems per 100 vehicles, while GMC took the second spot on the podium with 90. Lexus filled out the top three with 94 problems per 100 vehicles, followed by Infiniti at 95 and Chevrolet at 97. The study also looks at specific models, and found the Lexus LS to enjoy the best initial quality at 59 problems per 100 vehicles.
Interestingly enough, the report found that around two-thirds of most owner problems experienced in the first 90 days are attributable to vehicle design instead of mechanical failure. Specifically - echoing a refrain we've been hearing for the last few years - owners are having a hard time figuring out how to use the technology present in their new vehicles. Head over to the J.D. Power site for more information, or scroll down below for the company's related press release.
