For auction is my 1989 Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera Cabriolet. This is the last and best year of the classic 911 body style. Beautiful Grand Prix white with Marine blue interior. Smooth shifting sought after G-50 transmission. Brand new convertible top. (German material) Recent $5,800 major engine out service which included replacing all failure prone head studs with ARP studs. This is a major plus as the factory divilar studs are one of the only weak links of this bulletproof 3.2 liter engine. All gaskets, O-rings, oil return tubes etc. were replaced. No oil leaks. Factory Fuchs forged alloy wheels: 6 x 16 and 8 x 16. Car is in very nice shape and runs great. Very strong. Motor is all stock except for a cat. delete pipe. It has 102800 original miles. Air conditioning blows cold. New AC compressor. No rust or bodywork. Front pan is perfect. Paint looks very nice. No real dings or scratches to speak of. Interior is in very nice shape. Seats are nearly perfect. Carpets are very nice with some minor fading around the rear window area. Steering wheel has almost no wear. Door panels are great. One crack on the drivers door trim piece around the lock button. The original dash pad had a few cracks so a new pad was installed that matches great. All the speakers are original and has an aftermarket CD player. Cruise control is not working. Car was equipped with a power top. The power latches at the windshield header work great but the power retract mechanism is not working properly. The motors are working and all components are there. I just never bothered to fix it as the top goes up and down so easily manually. May just be a cable or something but I'm not sure. I have owned the car for about a year. I thought I would keep it for a long time but I found a 930 turbo so now it has to go. I have tried to describe the car the best I can, but please feel free to call me and ask any questions or stop by to inspect it. My name is Ryan. Ph. 239-218-9114. Please call with questions as I dont want to answer a bunch of emails. Good luck. Its a beautiful rare car and its appreciating in value.

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.
2014 Porsche 911 Targa
Tue, 15 Apr 2014I've watched the electro-hydraulic roof panel open and close about 73 times in the past hour, but its fascinatingly complicated operation still has me mesmerized. I've concluded that only a German automaker - Porsche, to be more specific - would go through the trouble of engineering a roof system that essentially lifts the entire greenhouse off a vehicle, rearranges its components like a sliding-tile puzzle, and then reassembles all of them seamlessly (sans roof panel) to accurately recreate one of its most famed bodystyles.
The 2014 Porsche 911 Targa is a near-perfect modern interpretation of the automaker's 1965 911 Targa, a semi-convertible bodystyle that represents nearly 13 percent of all 911 models sold since production started 50 years ago. While the early car's roof was purely manual in operation - that's the period-correct way of saying that the driver did all of the muscle work - today's Targa is a completely automated transformation that requires only that the driver hold down a cabin-mounted switch for a mere 19 seconds to let the captivating show run its course.
After studying the Targa's elaborate roof operation at its launch at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year, I was sufficiently intrigued. To that end, I traveled one-third of the way around the planet to southern Italy, hoping that the Mediterranean climate would reveal a bit more about the reintroduction of the automaker's iconic sports car.
CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
