1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe 2-door 3.2l on 2040-cars
Labelle, Florida, United States
We have had him now going on 10 years. It's a great car for speed, the faster you go the greater the stability. It will hugs the ground in curves and turns like no other. This 911 will not disappoint you, he has a tight finely tuned 5 speed manual transmission and you can go through the gears like butter they are so close. New tires where installed several months ago on him and is a pure joy to drive. If you have a need for speed this is your answer! He has been well taken care of over these years and needs to go to someone that will enjoy this fine tuned machine.
This 1987 Carrera
represented the last version of the 911 to still be based upon the original
design that dated back to the mid 1960’s. Keeping essentially the same shape
for almost 60 years, Porsche has been content to make only incremental,
progressive changes from year to year, and the lightweight construction of the
911, combined with its finely-tuned driving dynamics contributed to a very
quick car that is solid through the corners. The engine in this Porsche 911 Carrera is air cooled, and has an improved electric fan design added to help cool down the oil in the engine when it was built. A new 5 speed transmission was installed when it was made that functioned better than previous 911’s. It was combined with a mechanical clutch to make the vehicle much easier to drive.
The 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera remains a popular vehicle amongst collectors and racers alike. The light weight of the car also makes it quite surefooted in road and track environments. The 1987 Porsche 911’s easily holds a special place in automotive history and is a sports car icon, it is one of the purest sports cars made of the 80’s.
There are no guarantees or warranties with this vehicle, and the vehicle is sold "where is, as is". Serious Bidders only.

There's a Porsche Cayman under here somewhere
Wed, 15 Jan 2014What we have here is the work of Dubai tuner Royal Customs that is controversial even beyond its styling. The Middle East aftermarket house says it spent fourteen months developing a bodykit for the Porsche Cayman, and the results seem to be aimed at those who wish their coupe were a 918 Spyder - the nose, strake-filled and widened rear fender, carbon fiber wing and massive diffuser all cribbing some from Stuttgart's new hybrid supercar.
Even without a buyer, the Alpha One Concept is already controversial. When WorldCarFans posted on the Royal Customs car recently, German tuner Alpha-N Performance wrote in alleging that the Dubai package copies their design from two years ago, which was also called the Alpha One, a design with which it's clear the Dubai Alpha One shares numerous cues. We asked Royal Customs about its relationship to the Alpha One car, we were told, "Yes, there is a lot we can say about the remarkable similarities all of which will be explained by our press release by Mr. Emil from Autogespot. Please wait for the official release and you will have the full exciting story. It's an 'actual success story' and not a 'replication' story."
The response is referring to an "extensive report" on the car coming out of Autogespot. Royal Customs doesn't have the Alpha One Concept on its site yet, so we're still missing quite a few details on it, such as whether the Porsche engine has been given a similarly 918-ish workover. We do know that the company says each car takes 30 days to build and it will only build three of them, which is a number that should satisfy any haters and, even more so, its buyers. You can decide which side of the fence you're on by having a close look at it in the gallery above.
Porsche revisits the 911's dirty side with rally history film
Fri, 03 Jan 2014It might not be a coincidence that there are rumors of Porsche revealing a safari version of the 911 at April's Beijing Motor Show, just as the Dakar Rally is about to begin. Adding fuel to the dusty desert fire is a just-released official video of Jeff Zwart driving the Porsche 953 that Jacky Ickx drove to victory in the 1984 edition of the race.
In the video, the seven-time Pikes Peak International Hill Climb winner talks about how he grew up with the 911; it wasn't only the car he learned to drive in, it was his choice of racecar no matter whether the course was tarmac or the dirty stuff.
You can decide for yourself if these recent events are mere coincidence while you enjoy the 953's exhaust note in the video below. If you've got the time to see the 953 during its race-conquering drive and find out what the ersatz Paris-Dakar Rally used to be, we've also included a broadcast of that 1984 race below as well. Fast-forward to 19:44 to see the Porsches cross the open dessert and 29:09 to watch one of them tackle the dunes.
Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
