1999 Porsche Boxster on 2040-cars
Russellville, Arkansas, United States
I bought this Boxster a few months back running in good condition.
A month ago the water pump failed and needed to be serviced.
After spending the 2K to get it fixed it started running rough in the
mornings and blowing steam from the exhaust.
Had it checked to find out that there was a small head gasket leak(coolant
getting into the combustion chamber).
My tech told me to put a Porsche approved sealer into the cooling
system.
That solved most of the problems but the head gasket is still seeping when
the car is taken on long trips or idles too long in the heat.
It's been my everyday driver (mostly highway)
I recently bought a newer model and need to sell this one.It will need a
head gasket replaced, but runs and drives now.
Work done in the last 4 months.
Water pump, thermostat and housing, related hoses. New rear tires, new
front brakes,new door locking mechs,New computer and new Key Fob.
Everything on this car is functioning.
Top operates smooth and in great shape.
Interior is clean.
One small piece of the plastic trim on the front fender got knocked off by
a curb.I have the piece.
Please don't hesitate to ask questions.
Cash payment upon pickup. Buyer is responsible for getting it home.

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.

Porsche forum claims eco-friendly 911 Blu coming to Frankfurt
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The fiftieth anniversary of the Porsche 911 has been a nearly year-long affair, with unique tributes and even a special anniversary edition with plenty of retro throwbacks. The party is expected to continue through the end of 2013, and if one 911 enthusiast forum is right, we'll see yet another special edition model near the anniversary of the original car's September 1963 debut, when it arrives at next month's Frankfurt Auto Show.
It's called the 911 Blu, and where the 911 50 Years Edition was more expensive than a 911 Carrera S hardtop, the Blu would be an entry level special edition. That's right, a limited run car that actually slots in at the very bottom of the 911 range. According to Porsche forum 911UK.com, the new car would be priced at 74,600 euros ($98,718 at today's rates) or 64,750 pounds. That undercuts the price of a base 911 in Germany by nearly 16,000 euros and in the UK by nearly 8700 pounds (although to be fair, it's roughly identical to the price of a base 911 C2S in the US).
This 911 will reportedly feature a detuned flat-six with 300 horsepower and 211 pound-feet of torque.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
