Here is an original targa, with excellent patina appropriate to its age. The mileage is just shy of 78,000 and it has not been modified in any way. I replaced the dash a few days ago and have the original dash. The original blaupunkt stereo is there. I believe the paint is original, at least a detail shop told me so. The photo of the front driver's side fender with the wheel shows a series of scratches which were present prior to my purchase of the car and were poorly touched up but the detail shop buffed it to the current appearance. The cam oil lines were recently changed so she has a very dry bottom. Tires have very little wear on them and the wheels are original Fuchs but the PO polished the black off the spokes for a more vintage look. I have a whale tail of matching color available. I personally rebuilt the targa top with advice from a local convertible shop where the seams on the vinly were restitched and it no longer leaks, even in a heavy Seattle rainshower. The rubber around top frame was also recovered in the porsche style mesh material which was worn over the life of the car. I have little in way of records on this car but it appears to be a Florida car which was then sold to the PO in British Columbia and then to me in Seattle. The COA will be ordered from porsche and should substantiate that it is a numbers matching car. It has run really well with the few miles I have put on it. I am selling because my interests have become even more vintage than this car. Must be a sign of age, or perhaps taste. I have represented this car with the knowledge I have of it. Please ask your questions and do the appropriate research to satisfy what you need to know about this car. Of course, if there are specific photos you would like, please let me know. Best Regards.

Porsche 911 GT3 named Performance Car of the Year by Road & Track
Thu, 13 Nov 2014The Porsche 911 GT3 is a very, very good performance car. Yes, we know this is like saying fire is hot and a shovel to the head hurts. What's different about this proclamation, then? Well, we bring up the 911 GT3's inherent goodness because our friends at Road & Track have named it their 2015 performance car of the year.
This is, our joking aside, a big accomplishment for the 911 GT3, due largely to the field of cars it beat out. There were many equally track-focused wonders in attendance, including the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 and Dodge Viper SRT TA, as well as more capable everyday vehicles, like the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, BMW M3 and Ford Mustang GT.
But it was the 475-horsepower, rear-engined track star that R&T fell for, with editor-in-chief Larry Webster calling out the Porsche's ridiculous, howling, 9,000-rpm redline, while other editors cited its phenomenal handling character.
Watch this Koenigsegg CCX hit 211 mph on a runway, outpacing McLaren's P1
Tue, 03 Jun 2014Vmax200 in in England organizes events where those who care to show up with a supercar can run them down the two-mile runway at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. Evo attended the latest event, bringing an impressively green Lamborghini Aventador to test its girth and gaping vents against other precious metals like the McLaren P1 and F1, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta and Enzo, a Porsche Carrera GT and enough 911 Turbos to start a dealership. Speaking of those Porsches, nine of the top ten slots in the top speed competition are claimed by modified 911 Turbos.
A monochrome Swede ruled them all, though, a black-and-white Koenigsegg CCX setting fire to the speed trap run after run, hitting 211 miles per hour at its quickest. It was followed by, surprise, a 911 GT2 modified by 9E that did 210 mph. You can watch the EVO video below, GT Spirit has a bigger breakdown of the day, and we've included another vid showing the tandem launch of the CCX and McLaren F1.
Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911
Thu, 26 Sep 2013According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.
