This 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster Carrera Replica looks great and runs strong. The car is the very desirable color combination of black with a tan interior with a stylish wood steering wheel. The car is wearing a custom made black vinyl tonneau cover that adds to the cars great looks and wraps nicely around the roll bars and can cover the whole cab or unzip to fit around the driver. The car also came to me with a black vinyl convertible top that can be bolted on with a couple of bolts. I prefer the look of the tonneau and have never needed the top since I don't drive it in the rain. This car is built on a custom welded steel tube frame and I have the full documentation of the build. (The documentation is included in the pictures below.) I've owned a Beck Speedster Replica before and this Classic Motor Carriages Speedster is a much stronger design in my opinion and the car feels much stronger and safer to drive. The engine is a VW and was upgraded to 1835 CCs recently. The engine is fresh with less than a thousand miles on it since the complete rebuild / upgrade to a 1835 at a very reputable VW shop here in Kansas City and should be ready for a new lifetime of miles. (The receipts for the rebuild are included in the pictures below.)

It has an amazing sounding dual exhaust that adds to it's race car looks and dual Weber carburetors to keep that fuel and air coming in as fast as it can breath. Since stopping is just as important as going fast this car has 4 wheel disc brakes with calipers that are zinc dipped just in case you hit a puddle. The transmission is a VW 4 speed and shifts smoothly with a comfortable short throw. Total mileage since it was built in 1987 is only 7600 miles and it is still being started and driven occasionally to keep her running strong and the battery charged. The paint is in great shape and shines beautifully in the sun. The fiberglass body is of the highest quality and very straight and seems much thicker and stronger than the Beck I owned a few years back.

The car's stance is aggressive and low and the custom chrome wheels with colored Porsche crests are wider and more sporty than the typical speedster wheels. The tires are all brand new with less than 50 miles on them and they are wide and fit right in with the vintage race car look and feel of the entire car. I just replaced all the key suspension components in the last 100 miles and she is riding great. I am a big fan of Porsche and I own and have owned many incredible Porsches including several real 356s and I have to say that I absolutely love driving this car and I fell in love with the fender flares the first time I saw it in person. It gets more attention than any of my six figure cars and you can own this awesome Speedster for around 10% of a real one and actually go out and drive it any time you want to without the $250,000 worth of worries that come along with a real Speedster. You can watch a quick video of the car driving and hear the sound of the engine exhaust note at http://youtu.be/ZipwdXXO2TM

The car is for sale locally as well so I have to reserve the right to end the auction should it sale to a local buyer. I want the new owner to enjoy the car and be as happy as I have been with it, so feel free to ask me any questions you might have. I will do my absolute best to respond quickly. You can email, call or text me. My name is Brant and my mobile number is 913-486-7001.

Porsche Cayman GT4 speeds back into view

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

We're all familiar with the succession of numbers that follow the letters GT on a hard-core Porsche 911: the GT1 that was Stuttgart's Le Mans contender in the late 90s, the GT2 that packs turbochargers but without the Turbo's all-wheel drive and excess weight, and the naturally aspirated GT3 that's the enthusiast's choice. But a GT4? That's something new, and exactly what Porsche has in store.
Spied testing in Germany once again is the upcoming GT4 version of the Porsche Cayman, set to supersede the existing GTS and take the place of the previous Cayman R at the top of Porsche's junior sports car range. This latest batch of spy shots doesn't show us much more than the last crop, but gives us a much clearer view at what promises to be the most hardcore Cayman to date.
As you can see, the Cayman GT4 packs a much more aggressive aero kit and rolling stock than any version we've seen to date. It's got a lip spoiler, big air dam and GT3-style vent in front of the hood, deep air scoops along the flanks, a set of spindly alloys packing oversized brakes, a diffuser with twin central exhaust tips around back and a rear wing that's likely to be replaced with a sleeker unit before the GT4 reaches production.

This man literally loves a Porsche [NSFW]

Mon, May 11 2015

Think you know what "auto erotic" means? Think again. Because one man in Thailand has redefined the term. Caught on security camera footage this guy lurks into a garage, looks over both shoulders, evidently misses the camera, drops trou and has his way with a Porsche Boxster. When the tailpipe proved too hot (or otherwise inhospitable), he moves up to the radiator grille and – ahem Â– finishes up there. Sadly this isn't even the first time we've come across this particular perversion. We'd urge caution before viewing the video, not only because it's not suitable for a workplace environment, but because once you see it, you're bound to repeatedly blurt out, "Why, man!? Why?"
