You are viewing a gorgeous 1996 Techart wide body look Porsche 911 that was painstakingly converted and thoroughly restored from a clean 1976 Porsche 911S.  This 911 can be a bargain as there aren’t many, if any at all “Porsche certified engineers only” tasks remaining for her. They’ve already been done for you! This stunning car can be won for less than half of the book value and thousands less than was spent on her restoration.


The video available below, its contents and the virtual test drive was filmed days before this posting. The images capture accurately the car’s current appearance, ease & ability to start run and drive well.

Background:

Even prior to her restoration she easily passed state inspection and is currently registered at a $35,000 insurance replacement value that includes a clean car fax report.VIN: MA11504 registered as a custom Porsche 911S. It will be inexpensive to insure especially if she’s insured as an antique or just as ’76 911S. She’s an adult female owned 911 with only two adult owners prior to her. This three owner, low mileage car was originally designated as a California car, for the first 30 some odd years. The second owner from San Jose CA decided she would make an excellent candidate for a body conversion. Her body work was completed by Better Bodies of San Jose who stretched and mounted correctly the extra low, extra wide, lightweight metal and fiberglass composite 993 body. The undertaking was to honor the look of the Techart 993 using authentic Porsche 996/993 parts when available. Authentic ’96 Porsche 993 Litronic Bi-Xenon headlights, signals, seats and exhausts are just to name a few. The transformation continued in 2009 by installing a custom made interior and speed yellow exterior paint. Adding original 996 turbo seats, custom updated leatherette console compartments, RS doors, new headliner, and carpets, under dashboard fiberglass kit was installed to hide wiring clutter. Pedal, brake, door handle/pins and cluster accents were also applied. The current owner completed the updating and restoration with only dealer test miles put on the car intermittently between tasks. This 911 was lovingly given an exhaustive, time consuming and expensive full mechanical restoration involving most aspects of the car from the bottom up. Most were not imperative but rather done out of adoration for the car and a desire to fully restore her to almost new condition.

 

 Condition:

 

The car starts first time reliably and has been a consistently reliable car. As of today she is not leaking any fluids and prior to engine and electric over haul she leaked only dime size drops of oil. Before undergoing her most recent work she was used as a daily. Driving to and from RI – MA highway miles. That said, like anything that moves…eventually and without notice…breaks. Although unlikely since most everything on the car has been replaced or restored! 

 There are numerous paint defects throughout and she would benefit by being repainted. The imperfections are not noticeable from 10-15 feet way but are there just the same. At the time of completion, there was nothing impeding this car from being driven starts right up.There are several owner biased odds and ends which you may wish to repair, replace or repaint. The air/fuel adjustment bolt is stripped, and could be replaced. The cost of this adjustment is between $2-$700. Although this is not noticeable with regard to her ability to start & drive, but doing this work will optimize her purr.   Lastly, during her restoration she was not driven regularly and would benefit from having a tune up, all fluids purged and replenished before distance driving. She should be slowly broken in again since she’s like new and hasn’t been driven beyond intermittent test drives post engine, transmission and EFI conversion. That said, the car is a bargain as a reliable daily driver that’s undergone a meticulous restoration that will keep her new owner on the road with miles of smiles so you can bid with confidence.


 The car is sold as is and as an unfinished project.

Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."

Jay Leno chats with Magnus Walker about his 1972 Porsche 911 72STR

Tue, 26 Mar 2013

Magnus Walker has stopped by the Big Dog Garage again to pay Jay Leno a visit in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage. This time, the Porsche builder brought along his 1972 911 72STR 002. Walker calls the machine his best build to date, and the car is a rolling "best of" from Porsches past, rocking some of the more attractive elements pulled from a wide arc of 911 model years. Of course, the machine also wears a few signature Walker touches, including flush-mount turning indicators, a center-hood fuel filler and plenty of louver work.
Unlike some of Walker's other creations, the 72STR 002 is clean enough to lick. Leno seems suitably impressed with the creation, and while apparently isn't typically a fan of Porsche models in general, Walker's tastefully modified 911 has him singing a different tune. You can check out the car in the video below.

50th Anniversary Porsche 911 vs. Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a battle of beauty, brawn

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

There can't really be a loser between the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R and the Porsche 911 50th Anniversary Edition. One might be better than the other, but if you're behind the wheel of either of them, you can't complain. In a new video, Motor Trend takes on the difficult task of determining which one of these European powerhouses is the best, not just in terms of raw performance, but also how they actually feel to drive.
The Porsche 911 is one of the perennial favorites of the motoring world. It just doesn't go away and always seems capable of challenging the top vehicles in its class. In this video, Motor Trend takes a look at the 50th Anniversary Edition model that celebrates that heritage while boosting power somewhat over the standard version.
The F-Type Coupe is an incredibly masculine car, MT describing it as "a British Corvette." The coupe's exterior lines are tautly stretched over its athletic body, and it's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 sounds like a demon's growl. Jaguar seems to have things right with its latest sports car.
