Sahara (Desert) Beige with Black Leather Interior

1974 Carrera Targa. This Porsche is a real factory duck tail Carrera. This Carrera is number 15, the first known U.S. Carrera Targa ever built.... (The first 14 were coupes). Rare optioned car. Factory fiberglass targa top. This car was ordered with manual windows. Numbers matching motor and transmission validated by Porsche certificate of authenticity. 100% Rust-free car purchased in Atlanta, GA. It took over five years to have the car restored. The Porsche is a RS inspired build. Less than 7,000 miles on the restoration. The engine was re-built with RS Pistons and rings, E cams, and PMO Carburetors. A stainless steel Sport Muffler and a stainless heat exchanger were installed. The original transmission was rebuilt. Brakes were rebuilt and rebuilt Koni shocks installed. The suspension was rebuilt. Original Porsche 7 X 15 inch Fuchs wheels were installed on the front and 8 X 15 inch Fuchs on the rear. Porsche RS steel flares were welded to all four corners and RS front and rear air dams were installed. Rare Cibie Rally lights were mounted on the hood. The car was disassembled and taken down to bare metal for a complete repaint in Sahara Desert Beige. The car was re-assembled using all new trim and rubber seals. The car is always stored in a heated garage and has never seen rain since its restoration. All the work listed was done by various professional, well known and respected Porsche shops.

Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla Model X towing drag race, Porsche 918 salvage auction

Wed, Mar 23 2016

Watch an Alfa Romeo 4C drag race against a Tesla Model X towing an Alfa Romeo 4C. The ridiculous (or, perhaps more appropriately, ludicrous) race appeared in MotorTrend's Instagram, which was then shared on Facebook by Tesla Motors Autopilot Program Director Sterling Anderson, along with the comment, "Fun fact: many high-performance cars cross the quarter mile line faster when towed by a Model X than they do on their own four wheels." While we can't quite see the actual results of the drag race in the video, it appears to be a close one. Check it out in the video above, and read more from Electrek. A Porsche 918 Spyder has gone up for auction. Unfortunately, it's a salvage auction, and said performance plug-in hybrid is totally mangled. The gut-wrenching photos reveal an even sadder detail, as the car's odometer shows it only logged 92 miles before being involved in what appears to have been a terrible wreck (though the listing describes the miles as "not actual"). The current bid on the Copart auction site is up to $106,000, and the listing shows a $600,000 repair estimate. The very expensive hunk of metal and carbon fiber is located in Long Island. Check out the listing for yourself, or read more at MotorAuthority. GKN Driveline says that German drivers are more interested in plug-in hybrids (especially with all-wheel drive) than conventional hybrid cars. In a poll of more than 1,000 drivers commissioned by GKN, 75 percent preferred PHEVs to standard hybrids, while 61.2 percent said that 50 kilometers (31 miles) of electric range is enough for their daily driving duties. About 81 percent are "wary of hybrids," most believing them to be a poor value. 52 percent said their ideal car would combine a plug and all-wheel drive. "We believe that plug-in hybrids with all-wheel drive make sense," says GKN Automotive President of Engineering Peter Moelgg, "and the public's positive response to vehicle programmes that offer this combination – like the Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, BMW i8, and Porsche 918 Spyder – can only continue to grow." Read more in the press release below. NEW RESEARCH REVEALS GERMAN DRIVERS PREFER PLUG-IN HYBRIDS Lohmar, Germany, 22 March 2016: Drivers now consider plug-in hybrid vehicles to be more attractive and practical than conventional hybrids, a survey commissioned by GKN Driveline has revealed.
