Garage Queen. I'm the original owner. Ordered the car from D-Patrick Imports, Evansville ,In. Picked up the car late November, 1987. The car has always been garaged . It has 16,923 miles on the vehicle. I just had Foreign Performance Service go through the entire car and replace all worn parts due to age with OEM replacement parts & replace timing belts and ALL fluids changed. I even had the "phone dial" wheels shipped off to Indianapolis to be refinished ( oxidation due to age). Brand new Z - rated tires on vehicle ( 6 miles on vehicle since service & new tires) . $ 8,000.00 spent with Foreign Performance to perform all described above. ( They have serviced the vehicle since warranty ran out from day one.) I have ALL service records , manuals, original window sticker & bill of sale. OEM BRA goes with the vehicle. There is a "pimple blemish" on the hood near the windshield on passenger side. It came in that way from Germany & I never had it fixed because I thought it was not worth it. Too slight. Foreign Performance put all new " clear body stone guards" on the lower body, just like the factory when the car was built. The Porsche is ALL original , except for the new replacement parts. There is a slight bit of hazing of the paint on the lower portion of the hood due to it's age. Otherwise the vehicle looks & drives like the day I picked it up from the Dealership. There are a lot of 944 Turbos out there for sale ,BUT, not with this LOW , LOW mileage & original ! This is a premium example of what Porsche is all about.

Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach package does 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds
Mon, 18 Nov 2013Porsche marketers are having a field day with the 918 Spyder after some last-minute tuning improved the car's performance. They now say that it's so fast it's already beaten itself. Let us explain: Using a Weissach package-equipped 918 as an example (which reduces the plug-in hybrid supercar's weight through the deletion of some interior items, more generous use of carbon fiber and magnesium wheels), the car's previous official 0-62 miles-per-hour time of 2.8 seconds has been cut to 2.6. Additionally, 0-124 mph takes 7.2 seconds and 0-186 mph is dispatched in 19.9 seconds, times that were reduced by half a second and 2.1 seconds, respectively.
In all-electric mode, a non-Weissach pack 918 does 0-62 mph in 6.2 seconds (with the package, 6.1 seconds), down from 6.9 seconds. Efficiency is also improved thanks to the final tuning. The New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) rating of a Weissach pack-equipped car equates to 94 miles per gallon, up three mpg compared to before. That's pretty good for a car with 887 horsepower!
Check out the press release below for more details on how Porsche's final tuning measures improved its flagship supercar.
Motor Trend holds World's Greatest Drag Race for the third time
Fri, 23 Aug 2013As part of Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car competition, the buff book has held its third iteration of the World's Greatest Drag Race. With an airfield and a dozen of the world's finest performance cars at its disposal (oh, and a helicopter), the MT team did what any good group of enthusiasts would do, and tried to figure what car could cover a quarter mile the quickest. World's greatest drag race, indeed.
The contestants, as MT points out, cover a huge variety of engine types, drivelines, aspiration types and body styles, making for a genuinely varied and interesting field of competitors. Here's the full list of cars taking part.

Leno buys classic Porsche 356 Carrera 2, seeks out and finds perfect expert for help
Mon, 19 Aug 2013The world of collector cars is fairly tight-knit when you get down to individual models. Need proof? Just take a look at this latest video from Jay Leno's Garage. The subject is a gorgeous 1963 Porsche 356 Carrera 2. Jay, being known as quite a collector, got a call from someone looking to sell. While doing his due diligence and looking for a 356 expert to go over the car with him, he came across John Willhoit.
Where the story gets weird is when Leno is asked the license plate number - it turns out that Willhoit, owner of Willhoit Restorations, had restored the exact same car more than 30 years prior. He then sold it to the same person that was looking to give it to Leno. What follows is a truly interesting video on the little quirks of the 356, along with Willhoit's personal history on a car he hadn't seen since 1976.
This is a bit more mechanically detailed than Leno's normal videos, but it's on a very interesting subject. Take a look below for the entire film.
