very clean 1983 911sc... runs and drive tight and smooth, this a clean driver that was highly opted which includes factory wing, sunroof front, chin spoiler, fog lights, h4 lights, factor ac (not working) and pleated leather seats. the porsche is all stock but the exhaust was upgraded to a ss system that sounds awesome. I bought this car for my wife because it was her dream car, not knowing she was not willing to learn to drive a manual. she didnt know the car only came manual. I have driven the porsche over 2500 miles in the last 6 months with no problems at all. I remove the ac because it didnt work and I was told the removal would add power, it did! not a lot but the car is so light every little bit help. I would not say its fast but it is fun to drive for sure. (my last porsche was 911 twin turbo, it was fast!) I hate to sell this car but she said she want a 997 with an auto trans. lol I looked long and hard to this car and was very happy with it. I purchased an additional deck lid because I prefer the no wing look, I have the original wing and its in great shape. I also have the ac complete. new parts include: fuel pump,fuel hose and clamps, fuel sending unit, all new oil lines, oil change, oil drain ring. work preformed on 5-03-16. miles 110,125 spark plugs. work preformed 2-03-016 ignition control unit and ignition coil 2-01-16 window switchs and v-belt 11-30-10 fuel accumulator, fuel filter, air regulartor, hood gas strut, preformed 8-06-09 shift ball socket, shift sleeve, shift coupler, plastic sleeve, preformed 8-06-09 with 109869 miles... miles on the car today is 110900 new Alpine blue tooth radio and new alpine speakers work preformed 6-10-16 THE GOODS: it a 1983 porsche 911sc the last year of the sc and the most powerful. it runs and drives so good! shifts great though all the gears like it should, I driven hundreds of 911 with the 915 trans and this is the best of all. the inside is good no rips or tears dash is good all controls work like they should all the gauges work even the clock the brake are good and stop like new recently had a tune up which includes NEW FUEL PUMP, PLUGS, MSD COIL, TIE RODS AND BATTERY. I have all the a/c parts and the factor rear wing. 915 Transmission shifts very smooth and tight THE BAD: not that much really the paint is super shinny and looks great going down the road, but some of the body work done before the paint is not great you can see sanding scratches in some places and the clear on the passenger side door is not smooth. maybe it could be buffed, I was going the paint the car so I didnt care. SO.... Im writing this and I walk out to my car to look to see if I overlooked anything and noticed the dash now has a crack in it and didnt yesturday sunroof is not working the motor works but the roof does not move.

Audi CEO says brand's EVs are almost as profitable as its other cars

Mon, Oct 4 2021

After, oh, a hundred years or so of building vehicles primarily powered by internal combustion engines, automakers around the world have been and still are pumping billions of dollars into the development of electric vehicle technology. Everything from platforms and batteries to motors and the software to control it all requires untold hours of development, and that takes time and money. Fortunately, it's not going to take long for that massive investment to start paying off, at least according to Audi CEO Markus Duesmann, who told Reuters in an interview that "The point where we earn as much money with electric cars as with combustion engine cars is now, or ... next year, 2023. They are very even now, the prices." As a brand, Audi contributed more than a quarter of overall profit for the massive Volkswagen Group, which has such powerhouse brands as Volkswagen and Porsche among others. Under the Audi umbrella are Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati, and it seems those high-end branches aren't going anywhere, at least for now. "These brands ... are very valuable very profitable brands, where we can even expand the synergy level in the future," Duesmann said in the interview. "There are no plans whatsoever to get rid of them." Despite the overall profitability of the brand, the ongoing global chip crisis is causing headaches. "We had a very strong first half in 2021. We do expect a much weaker second half," said Duesmann, who added, "We really have trouble." In fact, so serious is the trouble that the brand is forced into "a day-to-day troubleshooting process" to limit the chip-shortage damage. The good news for the automaker is that Audi has been able to boost its profit margin from 8% prior to the pandemic in 2019 to 10.7% in the first half of 2021. The bad news is that various chip shortages aren't expected to get a whole lot better over the rest of the year. Related video:

Porsche 918 Spyder with Weissach package does 0-62 mph in 2.6 seconds

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

Porsche marketers are having a field day with the 918 Spyder after some last-minute tuning improved the car's performance. They now say that it's so fast it's already beaten itself. Let us explain: Using a Weissach package-equipped 918 as an example (which reduces the plug-in hybrid supercar's weight through the deletion of some interior items, more generous use of carbon fiber and magnesium wheels), the car's previous official 0-62 miles-per-hour time of 2.8 seconds has been cut to 2.6. Additionally, 0-124 mph takes 7.2 seconds and 0-186 mph is dispatched in 19.9 seconds, times that were reduced by half a second and 2.1 seconds, respectively.
In all-electric mode, a non-Weissach pack 918 does 0-62 mph in 6.2 seconds (with the package, 6.1 seconds), down from 6.9 seconds. Efficiency is also improved thanks to the final tuning. The New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) rating of a Weissach pack-equipped car equates to 94 miles per gallon, up three mpg compared to before. That's pretty good for a car with 887 horsepower!
Check out the press release below for more details on how Porsche's final tuning measures improved its flagship supercar.

Winterkorn will leave remaining VW posts by end of the month

Tue, Oct 13 2015

After stepping down as chief executive of the Volkswagen Group last month, Martin Winterkorn still retains a few key positions within and related to the German automaker. According to the latest reports, he's set to resign from those positions as well in the coming days. Aside from his former position as chairman of VW's executive board, Winterkorn has also served (and continues to serve at present) as chairman of the supervisory boards of Audi, truck manufacturer Scania (which is owned by VW), and the group's Truck & Bus division (of which Scania is part alongside Man). He's also the chief executive of Volkswagen's largest stakeholder Porsche SE, having taken up the position after the Porsche/Piech family enterprise acquired its majority stake in the group that also subsumed the sports car manufacturer. In what could prove a strong indicator of things to come, and according to the report from Reuters, Winterkorn was not present at a recent meeting of Audi's board. In his place, the meeting was presided over by deputy chairman Berthold Huber. The former labor leader also served as interim chairman of the VW board after Ferdinand Piech's departure but before CFO Hans Dieter Potsch was named to the post. The companies in question have yet to make any announcements regarding Winterkorn's remaining positions, or confirm the reports regarding his future. However parties close to the automaker and its owners reportedly expect the resignations from those positions to come as well before the end of the month, if not before the week is out.
