For sale is my very original, very nicely maintained ’87 Carrera. I’ve owned this car for a couple of years,
but it’s time to sell a couple cars and make a move in the market. This is a very well optioned car that remains
in its original condition minus a quality repaint sometime in it’s history. Without the repaint, you’d have to
consider this an incredible survivor car - all original VIN stickers are in place, original drivetrain, original
sport seat interior, original carpets, headliner, everything is original to this car except the stereo. The option
codes are listed below and I have a Flickr gallery with 216 photos of the car - depicting condition from every
conceivable point of view and angle. I’m trying to be completely transparent with this car, as it’s a
no-excuse, very honest car that doesn’t need any hype on my part. The pictures and condition truly speak for
themselves.
I bought the car a couple years ago out of an estate of a gentleman from Texarkana who unfortunately passed away in
his 40s. I was in contact with the Administrator of his Will and was able to get everything I could from her and
the shop that was helping to sell the car for her. Due to this situation, the paperwork doesn’t go back as far as
many would like, but I do have what the shop was able to offer. The Carfax also showed that the history and mileage
checked out and once I had the car, the condition just kept getting better and better. You can see in the pics of
the front truck area the unused spare, unused compressor, jack, tools, etc. are all in place. On the inside, the
floors are immaculate under the stock carpets and floor mats - all showing a nice patina. The car came with
additional brown floor mats in the front, which have kept the original tan mats in very nice condition. If not for
the repaint - which shows extremely well - I would be inclined to call this a time capsule type car. Everything
hasn’t been replaced to make it look new, it’s been extremely well kept in it’s original condition. Again,
see all the pics to see condition and the relatively minor wear which gives it it’s patina. To me, this is the
type of car to buy - you can always put them back into original condition, but they are only in this condition
once. There are a few paint touch-ups, but they are hard to see and mainly on the front bumper.

Watch Finnish hoons drift a Porsche, a motorcycle and a snowmobile on ice

Tue, Feb 10 2015

We're figure the guys in Finland's Stunt Freaks Team see this video as three minutes of freewheeling snow drifting with a Triumph Daytona motorcycle on snow tires, a Porsche 911 GT3 rally car and a Polaris RMK snowmobile. We, however, like to think of it as a mini-documentary on the winter habits of bipedal Finnish mammals, who display a curious set of winter habits that fascinate us no matter how many times we see them. Admittedly, if we lived conveniently close to Rovaniemi, set smack-dab on the border of the Arctic Circle in Finland's Lapland, we'd do the same thing. The title says it all, save for there also being a side-by-side that was probably the camera car. It's missing the huge roostertails, but it's got a crash and a wheelie to make up for it.

Ferdinand Piech (1937-2019): The man who made VW global

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Towering among his peers, a giant of the auto industry died Sunday night in Rosenheim/Upper Bavaria, Germany. Ferdinand Piech, a grandson of Ferdinand Porsche, who conceived the original Volkswagen in the 1930s, was the most polarizing automotive executive of our times. And one who brought automotive technology further than anyone else. Ferdinand Porsche had a son, Ferdinand (called "Ferry"), and a daughter, Louise, who married the Viennese lawyer Anton Piech. They gave birth to Ferdinand Piech, and his proximity to two Alfa Romeo sports cars — Porsche had done some work for the Italians — and the "Berlin-Rome-Berlin" race car, developed by Porsche himself, gave birth to Piech's interest in cars. After his teachers in Salzburg told his mother he was "too stupid" to attend school there, Piech, who was open about his dyslexia, was sent to a boarding school in Switzerland. He subsequently moved on to Porsche, where he fixed issues with the 904 race car and did major work on the 911. But his greatest project was the Le Mans-winning 917 race car, developed at breathtaking financial cost. It annihilated the competition, but the family had had enough: Amid growing tension among the four cousins working at Porsche and Piech's uncle Ferry, the family decided to pull every family member, except for Ferry, out of their management positions. Piech started his own consultancy business, where he designed the famous five-cylinder diesel for Mercedes-Benz, but quickly moved on to Audi, first as an engineer and then as CEO, where he set out to transform the dull brand into a technology leader. Piech killed the Wankel engine and hammered out a number of ambitious and sophisticated technologies. Among them: The five-cylinder gasoline engine; Quattro all-wheel drive and Audi's fantastic rally successes; and turbocharging, developed with Fritz Indra, whom Piech recruited from Alpina. The Audi 100/200/5000 became the world's fastest production sedan, thanks to their superior aerodynamics. Piech also launched zinc-coated bodies for longevity — and gave diesel technology a decisive boost with the advent of the fast and ultra-efficient TDI engines. Less known: Piech also decided to put larger gas tanks into cars. Customers loved it. Piech's first-generation Audi V8 was met with derision by competitors; it was too obviously based on the 200/5000.

Porsche calls in The Committee for Boxster and Cayman GTS

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

Porsche is set to offer up the very first GTS variants of its more affordable Boxster convertibles and Cayman coupes. This is very good news for enthusiasts. Aside from our original post announcing the hotted up models, though, Porsche hasn't given us much to go on.
And you know what? This video isn't much of help either. It's called The Committee, and we're guessing it's meant to highlight the lengths that Porsche went to in designing what are essentially sportier trim levels for its two most affordable entries. Still, it's a stylized and entertaining video with a few entertaining driving scenes scattered throughout, and it gives just a small glimpse of Porsche's view of the vaunted GTS badge.
Take a look below for the full video.
