1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa
This 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa is a beautiful example in Grand Prix White over a Burgundy leather interior. This car has been well maintained and kept by its most recent owner, who had the car for the last 14 years. It recently received rebuilt calipers all around as well as new hoses and pads. The oil line to the thermostat, a common problem on these, has also been replaced. All work performed was done at one of the most respected Porsche shops in the northeast. The Targa top, another common problem, has also been completely replaced.
Being a 1987, this car features the desirable G50 transmission, a bulletproof unit that was a vast improvement over the transmission used in the SCs and earlier Carreras. This car runs out and drives extremely well with very good power, smooth shifting and very good overall roadfeel. Good examples of 87-89 G50 Carreras are becoming harder and harder to find. This is a well maintained car with a great look. It is a great entry into the world of early aircooled 911s and can be experienced without breaking the bank. These cars have a reputation for reliability and when properly sorted can go for hundreds of thousands of miles.

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.

Porsche drivers escape this horrific VIR crash unscathed
Mon, 07 Oct 2013There is no doubting the fact that it takes nerves of steel to be a racecar driver, but the same can also be said for motorsports photographers. Case in point: The American Le Mans Series Oak Tree Grand Prix at the Virginia International Raceway where two Porsche 911 racecars crash hard into the tire barrier, but the dedicated cameraman stays with the shot - diving away only at the last second just as the battered No. 31 car (shown above) comes to rest atop the tire barriers just feet from where he was standing.
The crash occurred when the two Porsches charged hard into a corner. Judging by the video, the white No. 48 car appears to not see the orange No. 31 and the two cars make contact, skidding off track hitting the tire barriers at a high rate of speed. Both drivers walked away from the frightening crash, but the video - posted below - shows just how bad things could have been. Hopefully the close call will serve as a lesson for the woman standing in the track marshal's post who has her back to the racing as the two cars barrel directly toward her.
