1988 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA G50 CABRIOLET

BLACK/TAN LEATHER

EXCEPTIONALLY WELL MAINTAINED

SAME OWNER FOR PAST 14 YEARS

3-OWNER VEHICLE

ALL BOOKS AND RECORDS + ORIGINAL WINDOW STICKER

I have owned this awesome 1988 Porsche Carrera Cabriolet since 2000 and am the third owner.  The vehicle was originally licensed in Tennessee in August, 1988 and then moved to California in 1995.  I purchased this Carrera in Southern California from a private seller in 2000 with 53,000 miles and have used it as my daily driver ever since.  I moved the car to the San Francisco Bay Area when I bought it and then shipped the car back to its original home of Nashville, Tennessee when I coincidentally moved there in 2008.  Over the past 3 years I have used it less frequently and have decided it needs another great home.  

I purchased this car in 2000 after an exhaustive search of 1988-1989 Carreras on the market at that time.  I met with the then-current owner as well as the original owner and visited the dealership where the vehicle had been serviced throughout the majority of its life.  This is an original, unmolested 1988 Porsche Carrera that has been very properly maintained for all of its 173,000 miles - it runs and drives like new.  The interior is only slightly worn, better than you may expect for a 26 year old Porsche.  The cabriolet top and rear plastic window were replaced in 2009 and items of regular wear and tear have been replaced as needed (rear tail lights, front fog light lenses, horn, tires, brakes, etc.) with no expense ever spared.  In 2012 I decided to address the stone chips on the hood and front bumper that accumulated over time and had the entire car (with exception of driver side door) repainted by the top body shop in Nashville.  All service history can be verified and validated by the two shops (one in San Francisco and one in Nashville) that have worked on the vehicle since I have owned it.  

I am happy to share more about the vehicle with serious parties.

Jay Leno plugs himself into Porsche's 918 Spyder

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

As one of the greatest sports car manufacturers of all time, when Porsche puts out a new, ultra-exclusive hypercar, enthusiasts tend to stand up and take note. Jay Leno is no exception, and now, the funnyman is finally getting his time with awesome 918 Spyder.
With his 1963 Porsche 356 and his 2005 Carrera GT flanking a Liquid Silver 918, Leno takes us through the basics of this plug-in hybrid roadster alongside Daniel Eastman of Porsche North America. Following the chat, Leno and Eastman take the German-plated car through the streets of California, testing it in a number of modes and even going on a short, all-electric freeway cruise.
If you're looking to learn more about the 918, or to just here its glorious gas engine at work, you'll want to scroll down and take a look at the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.

2014 Porsche Cayenne Platinum Edition is the ace of base

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

If there's one automaker that certainly doesn't skimp on the special edition models, it's Porsche, and here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, we're getting our first look at yet another unique take on one of the company's most popular models. It's called the Cayenne Platinum Edition, and while many special models build off of higher-trim vehicles, this one adds a bit of flair to the most basic version of the luxury SUV.
The Platinum Edition is available on Cayennes with the base 3.6-liter V6 or the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. Platinum models are set apart from other models with the addition of silver exterior accents on the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler, as well as the two-tone, black-and-beige interior scheme. It also comes standard with the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, the Convenience Package and Bose audio.
The cost of entry? $63,000 for the naturally aspirated Cayenne or $66,900 for the diesel. That's a full $13,000 more than the base model, but Porsche says it's actually a bargain as opposed to selecting all of those options individually. Have a look below for Porsche's official release.

VW rearranges leadership as brand focuses on electrification

Mon, Dec 21 2015

The Volkswagen overhaul continues into next year with a raft of new executive appointments that CEO Mattias Muller says will enable "Faster decision-making and more efficient action." One of the headline moves is Porsche head of design Michael Mauer taking over VW Group design, succeeding Walter de Silva who retired in early November after running the Group's styling bureau since 2007. Among the sheetmetal on Mauer's resume are the Mercedes SLK and SL from the late nineties, the 2007 Porsche Cayenne, the Panamera, and, most recently, the 918 Spyder. He will retain his current role at Porsche in addition to the new responsibilities. Here's hoping some of the excitement seen in the 918 filters its way down to VW's recently mundane offerings. Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn was head of Group R&D from 2000 to 2003, then went to Bentley, then left the company for the German Association of the Automotive Industry in 2012. He has been lured back to his old role in charge of Group R&D, taking over the shoes recently worn by Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, who resigned in early December while still suspended over his involvement in the diesel emissions fiasco. Ralf-Gerhard Willner takes over Group Product and Modular Toolkit Strategy, after leading development vehicle concept divisions at Audi and VW, and being technical director at Italdesign Giugiaro. He will play a huge role as VW evolves and expands its current platform strategy to include purpose-built electric cars and flat batteries. All those bottoms will be in chairs in Q1 of next year. The number of department heads that report directly to Muller has also been cut, giving Muller more time to focus on "overarching issues of the future." VW says that primary among them will be technology issues from EVs to digital integration. Back in October the company hired Thomas Sedran away from Opel as a lead strategist, his job being to figure out how each of those technical departments and the Group's brands navigate the marketplace and those "issues" from now until 2025. The press release below has more.
