This is a Super Clean 2 owner Boxter. Second and current owner bought in 98' when it was one year old. It had 3,000 miles. A Doctor ordered it new from Howard Cooper Porsche in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The second owner bought it when he was 69 years old. He is the Founder of the Famous Lil Indian Mini Bikes.  He is 82 now. It is always kept in a heated garage or air conditioned in summer. He hardly drove it. He mostly went with his wife out  to dinner and weekend drives in Northern Michigan in the fall when the leaves changed colors. He never went over 65 miles an hour in it always taking smooth country back roads going up the coast of Western Michigan. It has the dealer Pre Delivery Sheet with the Doctor's name on it and about 30 or more Manuals. All the original plastic bags under the hood and the original tool kit has never been used. This car has never been hit or wrecked. It is the original paint. All the original under hood decals stickers are still there. He Just put a the first set of tires on as the originals were wore out in the front. The car was just serviced with a oil Change with Mobil 1  0W40  oil  and inspection by Gilson Motorsports of Troy, Michigan a Porsche Specialist. He also put newer Boxter and better designed convertible top transmission arms with all new bushings and cables.New Battery. This car is beautiful and well cared for. It is his baby.  I do not think you can find a nicer cared for Boxter. It runs and drives awesome. A/C blows ice cold. Everything works exec. It does have a few minor driving flaws like two small rock chips. A very small  sized scratch on the edge of the left louver. Top is in good condition with a small blemish  in the center of the top. Back window is in good condition. Rims are real nice. The black leather Seats are in good condition with no splits or rips. Dash is mint. The car just beams with newness still like the day it was built. Look at all the latches still look new. No wear marks in the carpet or door panels. The headlights still have that new multi color shine when the sun hits them.

Porsche revisits its remarkable SC East African Safari rally car

Wed, 09 Jul 2014

Porsche and motorsports just seem to go hand-in-hand. The brand has defined itself by its ability to compete on the track with the concept that racing bred better road cars. While we are used to seeing 911s speeding along circuits around the world, the rear-engine icon's success in rallying is somewhat less well known. The Porsche Museum aims to fix that by highlighting a 911 SC that competed in the 1978 East African Safari Rally.
The 911 rally car definitely projects a '70s vibe. You wouldn't see too many racecars with a pink brush bar sliding through the stages these days, but it looks amazing. Its bank of spotlights and two, giant, hood-mounted horns definitely give away the car's purpose. Best of all, that fantastic Martini livery defines the looks of Porsche racers from this era.
The 911 SC performed well in the East African Safari Rally, but some suspension damage meant that this particular one never raced again. It's been a part of the Porsche Museum ever since. Scroll down to learn a little more about one part of the brand's off-road legacy.

Porsche 918 Spyder configurator goes live

Fri, 13 Sep 2013

That didn't take long. The debut model of the new Porsche 918 Spyder is still thronged by onlookers at the Frankfurt Motor Show, while the German sports car maker is hard at work putting the first version of the supercar's configuration page online. Considering Porsche configurators are some of our favorite time-wasters of the genre, we expect car-guy productivity to drop by a few percentage points over the rest of the day.
So, the 918 dream-maker doesn't list and prices as yet, and that's too bad. But considering the car is due to start off at $845,000 in the US, chances are good that unless you're reading this from the shallow end of your Uncle Scrooge-spec money pool, the cost of any part of the 918 is academic to you anyway.
To start, Porsche is offering twelve paint colors, three wheel choices and seven two-tone interior treatments. Standard lightweight bucket seats and a set of chairs with "firmer padding" are on offer, too. The options list is mostly populated with interior bits, though many - an anti-reflection interior, fire extinguisher, six-point seatbelts - are racing-oriented or functional. Note that Porsche is also kind enough to offer just one cupholder as an optional extra; the unit is made of aluminum and is detachable so that you won't have to carry the extra weight during racing. Also, Porsche probably puts you on some kind of naughty 'list' if you order one...

2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.
