This car features excellent colors and equipment but to top it all off we are looking at an original 47,500 mile
documented three owner California car. Car is totally original: body panels, paint, glass, all trim, carpet,
leather. Gorgeous, freshly serviced, no stories car. Needs absolutely nothing!
Well optioned per Porsche Certificate of Authenticity with cruise control, raised steering wheel hub, and more PLUS
original Blaupunkt cassette stereo currently being refurbished that will be reinstalled in the car prior to
delivery. Over the course of the car's history polished fuchs wheels, correct Carrera graphics, and correct OEM
911 Carrera tail have been added to accent the sporting nature of the Grand Prix White with Navy Blue leather color
combination. Original unblemished rear deck lid included with sale of the car.
Exterior: Grand Prix White paint color loved by Porsche enthusiasts in excellent original condition. This car has
absolutely no dings or dents in the paint or body panels. All trim, lenses, glass, and moldings are original and
as new. Targa top is near perfect. Wheels in excellent condition. Brand new OEM headlights at a cost of $1,200.

car garners many comments when out and about.
Interior: Navy leather seats, door panels, carpets trimmed with navy blue steering wheel, door tops and dash. All
leather and vinyl in original beautiful condition. No tears or stains just clean, supple and fresh interior

Dash and all trim free of warping or cracking. All switch gear works as it should.

flawlessly and is in excellent mechanical condition. No signs of leaks or weeping in the engine bay or
transmission. Excellent service history and most records are with the car. Tires have about 3/4 tread use left on
them.

Kit are all with car. Tire compressor was misplaced at some point (easy to source if desired).
A wonderful air cooled G50 transmission 911 that presents itself beautifully. Low miles...but not so low it'll
stop you from experiencing air cooled nirvana from time to time on perfect weather days.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video
Mon, Dec 7 2015With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.
Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."
