History
Originally purchased in West Virginia and later making its way to the second owner in the Chicago area. The 2nd
owner unfortunately had the car stolen from him in 2004 but was covered by his insurance. After the car was
recovered in 2005 it was resold, but with a rebuilt title according to Illinois regulations. The next owner lived
in Indiana, and upon inspection was given a clean and clear Indiana title for the car, which is how it now being
sold.
Condition
The car retains all of its original body panels and most of its original paint, aside from what appears to be a
small section spotted in on the driver’s rear quarter panel. Clearly garage kept, the car is very clean across
the exterior and underside. The paint is in good condition but could use a thorough polishing. The only blemishes
are minor chips and scuffs on either bumper, a tiny spot of rust around the lower edge of the rear window, a
mismatching driver’s rear taillight, and loose trim along the driver’s side. Overall condition of the car is
better than average considering the mileage.
Inward, the leather seats are in great condition along with the dash, console, door panels, and carpets. Again,
considering the mileage and age, the interior shows little wear but is in need of a thorough detail. No additional
or original parts aside from whats pictured are included. That means no original radio, no original steering wheel,
and no manuals.
Options
Features include the usual items like power windows & locks, cruise control, and A/C. Additional features include
the 8 way power comfort front seats sunroof, and an Ipad based stereo system. Below you’ll see the data tag

Mechanicals
This bone stock Carrera 4 is powered by the air cooled 3.6 liter engine which produces 247 horsepower and 228 lbs
of torque. Backing the motor is a 5 speed manual gearbox and Porsche's venerable all-wheel drive system.
A few receipts from the last owner covers the newly installed clutch. And although the car drives great currently,
the ABS light is on and we are recommending that the car be looked over before any long distance drives. As to be
expected too, the valve covers leak slightly but the car is largely dry underneath. The car does start quickly and
drives well. Once underway, power is abundant and shifts are crisp, while the brakes and suspension work as built.

2015 Porsche Cayman GTS
Thu, 29 May 2014The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.
Porsche gives Nick Murray exactly what he deserved [w/video]
Sat, 19 Apr 2014The tale of Nick Murray and his lemon Porsche 911 appears to have come to a satisfactory end. As noted in the original story about Murray, he and Porsche Cars North America met and came to a resolution. However, we didn't know exactly what that meant, until now.
Murray has created a new video explaining that PCNA offered to buy back the car at full price or give him an exact replacement for it. This was exactly what he was asking for. Murray remains pro-Porsche in the new video. "I am definitely considering reordering a Porsche 911," he says.
Porsche also posted a message on its Facebook page that clarified the situation. "We at Porsche have always sought excellence in all that we do. We know you expect it of us. And when we don't meet that standard, we make every effort to improve," said a portion of the note.
Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
