Up for sale is my weekend fun toy!  I take this car to a couple autocross events per year, and one track day per year.  Last year was Pocono North, this year was Thompson Motor speedway.  Also will make a good daily driver, very reliable.

Mechanically very good condition, especially considering this is a 27 year old car.  It has limited slip differential, upgraded fuel injectors, stainless braided fuel lines, new fuel pressure regulator, mass air-flow sensor and chip upgrade.  In the last 3000 miles I’ve done: new pagid RS brake pads, stainless braided brake lines, dot 5, synth fluids, engine head, gasket, valves, guides, timing belt, bilstein front suspension, re-indexed rear torsion bars, new rear bushings, high-end mild track setup and suspension tuning done by Fairfield county motorsports.  Brake master cylinder done 5000 miles ago.  Two sets of tires, currently has the Toyo Proxy R888 R-compound track tires with only 3 heat cycles.  Numerous other work done as needed.  I have all paperwork and receipts.

It will probably need rotors all around within a year.  They are cross-drilled & slotted, and the slots are showing wear.  You will also need to swap the other tires back on for winter.  The pictures make the exterior look great, however there is extensive paint and clear coat peeling.  There is no rust, no dents.  Dash has a couple of cracks, seats are dirty but otherwise are in good shape with no rips or tears.

If you would like any additional pics, please contact me.  I require a non-refundable $500 deposit at auction end, and balance due in-person, cash-only.  I have the clean title in-hand.  I can be reached at ‘meldavey at gmail dot com’ or (860) 399 one eight four three.  Car is located in Westbrook, CT.

'Latest production version' of Porsche 918 shown off on Twitter

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Porsche posted a picture of what it is calling "the latest production version" of the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder on Twitter. It looks like the gasoline-hybrid supercar is being driven sportively on some California back roads during Monterey Speed Week.
Whatever updates were made to this version aren't visual (except for the paint), as the one Chris Harris drove last spring and another seen hot-weather testing in Nevada both had production bodies. We presume the changes are relatively minor and more than skin deep - perhaps brake calibration, suspension tuning or tweaks to the powertrain - but Porsche didn't release any more information.
The 918 Spyder is Porsche's latest supercar, which will compete with the LaFerrari and the McLaren P1 hybrid supercars. The Porsche may be the underdog of the group when considering horsepower, acceleration, top speed and price, but the 887-horsepower brute has the most advanced hybrid drivetrain of the three.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013


Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.

Hyundai Blue Link Android smartwatch app will start your car

Mon, Jan 5 2015

We knew Hyundai would be bringing its Blue Link smartwatch app to the Consumer Electronics Show, and now that CES is upon us, the app's workings have been revealed. Once you get the free Blue Link app on your smartphone and your Android smartwatch and pair them up with the app, it's all systems go. Through either touch or voice commands, you can remotely lock or unlock your car doors, start and stop your engine, flash the lights and honk the horn, or have your watch locate your car. It works on every Hyundai with first- or second-gen Blue Link (which is all of them in the case of first-gen and the 2015 Genesis, Sonata and Azera for second-gen). The watch app isn't quite ready yet, but the company says you'll be able to get it sometime in Q1. There's a video above showing Hyundai's offering at work, and a press release below with more information below. HYUNDAI BLUE LINK TO DEBUT SMARTWATCH APP WITH VOICE RECOGNITION AT 2015 CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW AND PEPCOM'S DIGITAL EXPERIENCE - Next Generation Blue Link System to Launch on 2016 Elantra GT and Veloster - The Blue Link smartwatch app works with first and second generation Blue Link equipped Hyundai models Fountain Valley, Calif., Jan. 2, 2015 – Smartwatch sales are skyrocketing and starting early in 2015 Hyundai owners will be able to connect with their cars using these wearable devices and the Hyundai Blue Link® smartwatch app. Hyundai will debut and demonstrate the Blue Link smartwatch app at Pepcom's Digital Experience and at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES®). Pepcom's Digital Experience takes place before CES on Jan. 5 and Hyundai's exhibit (North Hall, booth #2818) at CES will be open Jan. 6-9, 2015. Hyundai's cloud-based Blue Link platform allows features like remote start and service information to be quickly accessed through devices like smartwatches and smartphones. Hyundai partnered with Station Digital Media to develop the Blue Link smartwatch app. "This new app expands Hyundai's exploration into how wearable technology and Blue Link fit into a customer's lifestyle," said Barry Ratzlaff, executive director, customer connect and service business development, Hyundai Motor America. "Connecting to your car through a smartwatch and voice recognition was previously something seen only in science fiction movies. Now, we can provide this capability to owners of Hyundai vehicles equipped with Blue Link." The app is easy to use.
