1985 Euro Spec Porsche 911 Targa 3.2l on 2040-cars
San Francisco, California, United States
|
Presented before you is a 1985 3.2L Euro Porsche 911 Targa. The car was offered here weeks ago but because of previous winner’s inability to raise funds, it is placed on the market once more. Again if you need to sell one car to get this car please do not bid. Allow me to once more address some of the car’s history to you. It is a 2 owner 1985 Euro Spec 911 Targa with factory special ordered paint and cr?me leather. (I’ve attached the color code for your inspection and 2 sets of photos of the car in different light so you can see how extraordinary this color is). The Euro spec 3.2L cars came with 10.3:1 compression compared to the U.S.’s 9.5:1. What this means is 231HP instead of 200HP output. The engine, transmission and chassis #s are matching by the way. The vehicle has been in California since 1986 hence the blue plates which you see. What makes this Euro spec Targa even more desirable is that it also wears the California BAR sticker which so many of the Euro spec’d cars on Ebay do not have. This makes it a 100% smog legal in California. I have also attached photos of the car’s last smog certificate which was performed in October 2013 to prove. The vehicle is clean through and through with no stories, no gawdy add ons like whale tails and chrome wheels. Enough of my blabber and here are the bullet points on why you should or shouldn’t buy the car. Con’s: - 116,670miles - Odometer, headlights, and front bumper converted to US spec to allow for US entry. - Several door dings and minute scratches along door edge and rear lid. - Weathered steering wheel along with front and rear dash. - Dated radio system that needs to be addressed. -
Squeaky suspension over hard road bumps. Suspension
is original and has never been changed. Car is unmolested. - Other Porschephiles asking if they can have this car’s paint code. - Annoying Ferrari 308 owners trying to race you thinking they’re in the movie ‘Against All Odds’.
Pro’s: - 116,670miles (For 29years that equates to 4000miles per year!) - Euro spec 3.2L motor. - 100% No rust (Photos of under the car included) - Matching numbers - Porsche special paint combo. - All OEM parts except for radio. - Water tight Targa top. Inside and out. - All functioning electrical seat, windows, lights, wipers, dash lights, and A/C. - Recently serviced in March by Charles, ex Stable mechanic here in SF, with all fluids replaced. Sparkplugs swapped out. Mechanic can be contacted as he knows the vehicle’s history. - Brakes on demand with no issues. - CA smogged, CA Titled, CA blue plated, and CA garaged here in San Francisco. - 16” OEM Fuchs wheels with no curb rash and tires. - Complete tools, manuals, pouch and spare wheel + tire. - Upside resale in European markets. - Located in San Francisco and ready for any test drives. - Detailed on April 11th.
Bid with absolute confidence.

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]
Mon, 16 Sep 2013Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.
The 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona: What we learned, what we saw
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Two days after the flag dropped on the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, people are still trying to figure out what it might portend for the rest of the season. In 24 hours, two minutes and 24 seconds, 695 laps were completed by the car that crossed the line first. During that time, 67 cars began the race, 18 of them retired. There was that accident, and a red flag. There were supposedly slower classes beating supposedly faster classes. There were 16 caution periods, including that yellow flag. And then there was The Decision. And Then The Uproar. And then The Reversal.
There was also some pretty good racing, so let's have one last look at the weekend. Oh, and there was that 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO Series II...
If you want to skip the reading bits and go to the photos, there's a high-res gallery of 158 images above and a couple more below. Enjoy.
