With the exception of a few disparate models scattered over the decades, Porsche has built its fame and fortune on a single rear-engine sports car, the 911. From rather humble beginnings, the Porsche 911 has gone on to be one of the most influential and most recognizable vehicles in the world. Although other sports cars have been able to outperform the 911 in one area or another, nothing has yet to match Porsche's overall blend of performance, practicality and that endearing connection between car and driver. This 964 version of the car provides stunning levels of performance without sacrificing much in terms of day-to-day usability, and many Porsche purists still consider the 911 the only "real" Porsche.

 In Cabriolet form, they only built 600 of them for the US and Canadian market combined! Considering that the split was about 60% US to 40% CN, and included C-2 and C-4 models with 5-speed and tiptronic, there can't be too many of these around! Especially as original and fine as this one! With an MSRP of about seventy nine thousand, it's a true bargain today 

This rare and highly sought after 1990 Porsche Carrera 964 Cabriolet is the last generation of the HAND BUILT chassis. A very high grade car with impeccable service records. Built with 4-speed Tiptronic transmission, tan leather interior, full power cabriolet top, climate control A/C-heat, power steering, power door locks, ABS brakes, driver and passenger air bags, full 8-way power drivers seat with lumbar, 6- speaker stereo sound system, power windows, central locking with factory alarm, cruise control, leather seats, all-around, power/heatable rear view mirrors, intermittent wipers, halogen H-5 headlamps, 16-inch wheels, retracting power rear spoiler,  Guards red paint work is immaculate considering the age of the original paint.

Central to the this car's strong per­sonality is its marvelous 3.6-liter flat-six engine. Producing 247 hp at 6100 rpm and 229 pound-feet of torque at 4800, this powerplant has plenty of low-rev grunt, and yet it pulls fiercely right up to its 6800-rpm redline.

No money were spared on this car. Exhaust system replaced with upgraded high flow dual outlet stainless steel Fabspeed system; performance DME E-Prom from Autothority Engineering; upgraded rear bumper cover to accommodate dual outlet performance stainless exhaust; updated convertible folding top assembly with left and right gear mechanism; brakes serviced at 47201, Tiptronic transmission maintenance service performed at the same time; oil change done at 42775-passed enhanced emissions and safety inspection at the same time; new ZF steering rack with new rubber mounting bushings; new Interstate battery; new ZF steering pump with belt; alternator with new belts; major service done within the last 2000 miles; new spark plugs, distributor caps, rotors;  cam covers resealed, timing chain cases resealed, crank seals all replaced with major service;  invoices available detailing all work done by a German specialty service center.

Continental DWS tires on rear wheels are new, 2 front continental tires are in need of replacement but no cords exposed;

There are a few imperfections which I am aware of with photos in this listing.  The right door edge half way up has a small crease which Im sure happened in my garage.  The front hood has a small coin sized dent to the right of the Porsche emblem which can be corrected with painless dent.  A small car accident (2/2011) to the front bumper cover ended up as small crack above the right turn indicator and scratch marks which are barely visible.  The under side of the front bumper is pushed up slightly and the sheet metal underside slightly creased from contact with a concrete parking block. I valet parked the car one night and didn't notice it until days later which is very aggravating.  Canvas top has a slight 20 millimeter tear on it left side.  This section of the top is double layered and the tear is only on the outer portion of the canvas.   There is no hole which goes right through canvas to the interior.  The right tail light has hairline cracks from aging plastic lens but no moisture has entered. Some of the hand tools are missing from the tool pouch but jack and air compressor are ok.  Im sure they are in my garage somewhere but can't seem to find them. Plastic surround trim to in dash cd player cracked and fell off.  The leather steering wheel and leather shift knob are in excellent condition.  The drivers seat side bolster shows some wear, discoloration and cracking but no tears or holes.

I have many more photos but listing only allowed 24 photos.  I can send more photos of specific areas at your request. Lastly I've owned this car since 2003 which I purchased with roughly 30,000 miles.

Porsche 918 Spyder burns to ground in gas station conflagration

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

There's one fewer Porsche 918 Spyder zipping along the roads of Toronto, Canada, today. A fire at a gas station over the weekend claimed one of the hybrid supercars in a massive blaze, and a portion of the inferno was caught on video.
According to our partners to the North at Autoblog Canada, the cause of the fire hasn't been officially confirmed yet, but witnesses reportedly claimed gasoline somehow came into contact with the hot exhaust outlets that exit out of the top of the supercar's engine bay. This was just one of two 918s believed to be in the Toronto area.
Other than a possible broken heart from the owner, the fire reportedly caused no injuries, and only the Porsche and gas pump appeared to sustain serious damage. Warning, the video of the conflagration does contain some explicit language.

Porsche goes Platinum with special edition Cayenne

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

The other day, Porsche announced a new special edition of the Cayenne. We didn't pay it much heed because it appeared to be exclusive to Europe (or, at least, markets other than ours), but now Porsche has announced its availability in North America, as well.
It's called the Platinum Edition, and it's available exclusively on the entry-level models with either the 3.6-liter V6 or 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6. You can tell the special edition apart from any other Cayenne by the silver details (accenting the grilles, window trim and rear spoiler) and its two-tone black and beige leather interior. But what makes it a compelling choice is the long list of equipment, which Porsche has identified as the most requested options and fitted them as standard, including the eight-speed Tiptronic S transmission, Power Steering Plus, Park Assist, Convenience Package and Bose audio.
Pricing starts at $63,300 for the Cayenne Platinum Edition, or $66,900 for the Cayenne Diesel Platinum Edition. That represents a premium of approximately $13,000 over a bone-stock model, but actually saves you a few grand if you were going to select all those options anyway. Check out the press release below for all the details.

Porsche 911 Carrera 4S named Motor Trend Best Driver's Car [w/video]

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Motor Trend has named the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S its best driver's car for 2013. The annual
competition for the title included some of the best performance cars that have gone on sale in the past year. The new C4S follows the 2012 Best Driver's Car award winner, a two-wheel-drive Carrera S.
Determining the winner of the coveted title isn't easy. Each vehicle is pushed through Motor Trend's normal battery of instrumented tests. Editors then spend time with each car over a 500-mile tour of mixed conditions before a final batch of testing at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca, with pro racer Randy Pobst at the wheel.
