This is a one owner, numbers matching 911T, complete and very original, needing restoration. The car has been off the road since 1985, mostly stored in a barn up until a few years ago. The body retains its original Albert Blue paint- with the passenger door and front fender, and hood having been replaced and had some work done- according to the owner. The passenger fender does appear to have been replaced, as well as the passenger door skin- perhaps the hood too- none of these panels appear to have any filler. The upper part of the body has rust, needing restoration, but has many solid aspects- please see images. The undercarriage is in need of complete restoration- floors, rocker panels etc. Torsion bar ok with some surface rust- area just below support needs work. Back seat areas, shock mounts are good. Front pan needs to be replaced.
Bright work/chrome is near excellent- headlight trim rings, door handles have mirror finish. Does not appear to have any missing exterior trim pieces.
The car has 98,644 original miles. The original owner took very good care of it up until taking it off the road in 1985- always dealer serviced. The engine has never been rebuilt and does not seem to turn over by hand- will likely need re-build. The original Zenith carburetors seem to be in remarkable condition, given amount of time sitting- linkage(ball and sockets tight- very little wear) and butterflies operable. Engine bay still has the original plastic cover for electronics on driver's side and original sound dampening material.
The interior, while needing new carpets, is in remarkable condition given the age. There are no tears or wear in the vinyl components. There are a couple of cracks along the dash top. The original leather seats are almost perfect except for a small hole in the driver's seat bottom. The door panels are good, - the hinged pocket on the driver's door is removed and intact. Back seats still have leather snap straps intact.
The original matching 5 1/2 X 14 fuchs wheels are in excellent condition- no road rash- aluminum still has a glow to finish.
The original owners manual(with red Porsche vinyl cover), maintenance book, blaupunkt owners manual and original 3 sets of keys(2 almost new condition), key code card, jack, and spare tire/rim are included.

Watch onboard video of the Porsche 918 Spyder's record 'Ring lap
Tue, 10 Sep 2013"Pics or it didn't happen!" You could almost hear the Internet shouting this when news started to trickle in about a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap by the new Porsche 918 Spyder. Well, after an official press release, which we ran earlier today, we have your "pics." Moving pics, to be more exact. Porsche has released on-board footage of the 6:57 lap.
The video, which runs about eight-and-a-half minutes, and shows the 918 from inside the car on a flying lap of the German track. Perhaps what's remarkable is just how undramatic it all looks. Sure, there's some sawing at the wheel from test driver Marc Lieb (one of three testers, including legendary rally king Walter Röhrl), but he makes wrangling the Martini-liveried 918 look kind of easy.
Take a look down below for the full, on-board video, and then click over and read our initial write-up from earlier this morning and take a glance at the more stylized video that Porsche originally posted.
Robb Report chooses Porsche 911 as its Car of the Year
Thu, 21 Feb 2013Robb Report has picked the seventh-generation Porsche 911 Carrera S as its 2013 Car of the Year, saying the two-door captivated its judges with "agility, driving dynamics and balance." The German coupe bested 12 others who were also in the running - the impressive list of nominees included the BMW M5, Audi S8, Ferrari FF, Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG and the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse.
Judging involved more than just throwing darts at pictures on the wall, as the publication enlisted a panel of automotive experts to test drive each vehicle for close evaluation. The panelists included 100 members of the Robb Report Club (comprised of top corporate executives and influential readers), Editor-in-Chief Brett Anderson and automotive consultant Robert Ross. Full results of the competition will be revealed in the luxury magazine's March issue, hitting newsstands in about a week.

Porsche planning Cayman GT4 racer
Fri, 10 Oct 2014To say that Porsche is big in racing is like saying that Warren Buffett dabbles in mergers and acquisitions. But while it fields the 919 Hybrid at Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the bulk of its racing activities are undertaken by private teams that buy customer racecars from the factory. Those in turn are largely based on the 911, but the latest intel from the motor racing world indicates that Zuffenhausen is planning a more accessible customer race car.
The new, more affordable competition car is to be based on the Cayman and built to GT4 specifications, slotting in below the 911-based GT3 Cup, GT3 R and RSR. Autosport reports that Porsche has already developed a prototype and will shortly commence testing. Details are scarce at the moment, but the Cayman GT4 would seem to compete against the likes of the Aston Martin Vantage N24, Nissan 370Z Nismo GT4 and Maserati GranTurismo MC. It will also likely help Porsche foster enthusiasm for a potential road version that's already been spotted undergoing testing. Previous GT4 racing conversions of the Cayman, like the one pictured above, were carried out by third-party racing constructors not recognized by the factory.
Porsche may not be the only one showing interest in the category, however. BMW is said to similarly be considering a GT4-spec version of its M235i Racing model to compete in the same class, taking the place of the defunct M3 GT4 as the Bavarian marque's entry-level customer racing car.
