Having been around 911's for 30 years, be assured that this is a great survivor example with which I am truly sad to see go. First off here are the items that may need attention depending on how important they are to you. I have fixed or serviced the things that were important for me. The AC doesn't blow cold. Normally these cars had an AC unit that felt like a small dog panting or your leg so unless you live in the far south or want a mechanically perfect car then this may not be an issue for you. I do not know if it just needs a charge or if the system needs to be replaced. If it were me and I wanted AC in this car then I would pull this OEM unit out and instal one of the new upgraded models such as the Rennaire unit [as with any 911 of this generation]. The is a spot under the license tag area where at some point a previous owner has run over something that has curled the rear valance back just a bit [maybe a half inch]. It doesn't bother me so I haven't ever addressed it but I'd think it would be fairly easy to curl back with a bit of effort. It wouldn't be perfect without taking it to a shop but you could get it pretty close. You would want to be careful not to bend in such a way that the paint would peel/chip/flake at the edge. There is a picture that shows what I am describing. FYI you won't see it unless you look right at it.... it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. There are a few small leaks around the front and rear corners of both the driver and passenger window. I have installed a new Targa Top and because of that, I am getting these few small leaks. The top itself needs to be adjusted [the side seals]...which should fix the leak. The front windshield seal has been replaced. The rear still seams to be in good shape. I rarely drive it in the rain so this has never been a priority for me. Actually the top usually stays off of it.... Services in the last 5,000 miles: Full front brake job including the addition of cross drilled front rotors New Front Left Right Brake Calipers/sensors/pads/hoses Valve Adjustment New Plugs New Distributor Cap New Ignition Rotor New Valve Cover Gasket Set New Air Filter New Belt New Battery New Clutch Cable New Boston Acoustic Speakers New Shift Bushing Set [not installed but will send with car] New Front Windshield Seal New Targa top [refurbished - it looks amazing] Options that make this car stand out: Turbo Sport Power Seats Steering wheel extender [if you've never driven a 911 with one then you'll wonder why they weren't standard equipment when you drive this one] Adjusted Brake Pedal [lowered to help better facilitate heal & toe - can easily be readjusted with a few simple handtools] Hand Polished/Finished Fuchs Wheels Front and Rear Spoiler [spoilers on a Targa make all the difference]

'We are already developing stuff that will be soon in high-volume Porsches'

2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.

6 car mashups that God never intended

Sat, May 17 2014

In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.
