1997 Porsche 911 Carrera2 Cabriolet

71k miles, 6 speed

NO RESERVE AUCTION!

Up for a no reserve auction is my 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera2 Cabriolet with 71k miles. I'll do my best to fully describe the Porsche below, so please read everything carefully before sending me questions. Also please note that I have 100% positive feedback on EBay because I take this very seriously and I expect the same from any bidders. Please have your finances in order BEFORE bidding on this car because this is a no reserve auction and if you bid once you could be the winner.

I am the third owner of this fine 911 which has a CarFax guaranteed clear title! The previous owner knew the first owner (former co-workers) and so I have a good handle on this cars history (otherwise I would not have purchased it myself).

The 911 is silver with full black leather interior and offers the vastly superior manual 6 speed transmission with original limited slip differential. It simply drives amazingly, I don't know how else to put it. The acceleration is strong, handling is balanced and predictable, and the motor sounds intoxicating. With the power top down and cruising down the road this car is a ton of fun! It looks amazing with aggressive front and rear spoilers, but at the same time it's very civilized to drive around down and not over the top. It offers the following great features: Litronic lights, limited slip differential, full leather interior with power leather seats, 18 inch Porsche Turbo twist wheels, TechArt front and back spoilers, Alpine CD system and changer, Motor Sound Package with aftermarket stainless steel performance exhaust (GHL), new Toyo Proxy tires, new Bosch battery, up to date service, and CarFax clear title guarantee!!

The overall condition of the 911 is very good to excellent. I have owned several 911s over the years and I take the stewardship very seriously. The car was in great shape when I bought it but I have maintained it / improved it with the below service since buying it 3 years ago:

changed oil religiously every 3k miles using Mobil1 oil and original Porsche oil filters (yes I replaced both filters every time).
New Toyo Proxy tires (currently fronts = 80%, rears = 50%)
New Bosch battery
New horn bushings installed (common 993 issue)
New belt tension sensor
Multiple oil leaks fixed; this 911 leaks ZERO oil - very unusual for air-cooled 911. Motor is spotless.
New Bosch spark plugs (original spec.)
Transmission fluid changed with Mobil1 fully synthetic
Brake fluid flushed
New Porsche original alternator and A/C compressor belts
New distributor belt
New oxygen sensors
SpeedLine performance pedals installed

Everything on the car works as originally designed and delivered. The clutch was replaced by the previous owner at about 40k miles (he showed me the original one before I purchased the car). He also had the wiring harness recall work done at Porsche Nashua (NH) as well as the cabriolet top motor and transmissions all replaced under recall at the dealership. Everything about the top works flawlessly. This 993 does not have any SAI issues, nor does it burn excessive oil. All OBDII functions are correct, and it has no error codes. It drives, shifts, brakes, and handles great! Minor, minor flaws for full disclosure: few small stone chips in hood, chips along drivers door edge and mirror, cosmetic scratches on bottom of exhaust tips, driver door pocket sags a little, normal stuff for a car with 71k miles. It did have paintwork done at a very high quality level on right rear bumper and was barely hard enough to scratch the paint and break the tail light. I saw a picture of the original damage prior to being fixed and it really was a very minor fender bender in a parking garage in NY from the original owner. You won't be able to see any signs of the repair - believe me I have looked very closely. To my knowledge it has never been driven during the Winter, nor have I seen any signs on it anywhere indicating it was driven during the Winter months.

Additional info: The 911 does have the original cabriolet top that is in excellent condition. There are zero tears and zero lose threads. The window is not cracked and it doesn't leak a drop. The cabriolet boot cover will come with the car (excellent condition), as will the original tool kit. I do not have the accessory air pump, but it does have the original space-saver spare tire. It has the owner's guide, and a ton of paperwork for service receipts and purchases along the way. The title is clear and free, ready to be signed over in a quick transaction. I also have a photocopy of the title from the previous owner which shows no brands, and is great history on the car to have, and furthermore I also have the clean CarFax report from when I purchased the car.

The interior of the car is in excellent condition. It has the full leather package (which is very unusual in a 993 cab.) which I maintain with Lexol cleaners and conditioners. There are no tears or punctures or anything like that. The carpets are all clean and in very good condition, free of any stains. There are two sets of carpets, both will be included with the car. The interior also has TechArt carbon fiber trim pieces on the gear shift and emergency brake handle. It looks very sharp. I also installed RennLine performance pedals to give it an upgraded, high performance feel.

You might notice the "RS" badge on the rear deck. The badge is a Porsche original piece that is correct for the 993 RS. You might already know the 993 RS was never imported into the US, so I simply installed the script as a tribute to an incredible car which actually looks very similar to this Carrera2. If the winning bidder does not like the RS badge I can remove it for them without damage to the 911. Please note the rims are Porsche original, and correct wheels for this car. They have the correct 993 part numbers on them, and are NOT the cheap aftermarket reproduction pieces you often see on other 993s. They are 18 inch, and have the correct offset so they do not require spacers. They do have wheel locks on them (Porsche original locks) and the car will come with the correct removal tool for them.

Disclaimer stuff: There is no warranty with this car. I am not a car dealer so I cannot offer any sort of warranty or guarantee. It is being sold in as-is condition without question. If you would like to come inspect the car personally I would be happy to show it to you with some advance notice. If the car needs to be shipped to the winning bidder I am happy to help coordinate with the shipping company, but the car will not leave my possession until all funds have cleared in my bank which can often take several business days. If you win the auction be prepared to send me $1000 deposit through PayPal within 24 hours, the remainder of the balance will need to be bank check or cashiers check. I will not accept the balance payment from PayPal because of all the nightmares I have heard about funds being recalled. I will accept a bankers check or cash, which both will need to be verified and cleared before the car leaves my possession. The buyer will pay all shipping costs (located in 02052 for cost estimates). Please make sure you have the required funds to buy this car before bidding, as the bid is a binding agreement.

I am listing this Porsche for sale locally so I am reserving the right to end the auction early if I find a local buyer. If you are interested in the car I suggest you bid early so I know where it stands relative to local people coming to look at it. Why am I selling my beloved 993 cab? So I can buy another Porsche, of course!

Thanks, and if you have any questions please contact me and I will reply as quickly as possible... Dan.

Porsche rolls out new 919 Hybrid at racing gala

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

That Porsche is returning to Le Mans next year with a top-tier LMP1 entry is no news - we've known that for some time. We've even seen pictures of the car in question undergoing testing at various racetracks across Europe, been told who'll be driving it and given some basic parameters of what will make it go. We just haven't known what to call it, but now we do.
In detailing its full endurance racing program for next year at its Night of Champions in Weissach, Porsche has revealed that its new LMP1 racecar will be called the 919 Hybrid. So, something like the 918 Spyder, only one faster. With a four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors, the 919 Hybrid will be taking on the top class at Le Mans next year, with a compelling roster of drivers on the docket: along with Mark Webber, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani, Porsche has assigned its works driver Marc Lieb and F1 test driver Brendon Hartley to the effort. But that's not all Porsche has in store.
The factory is also supporting teams that will campaign the 911 RSR in the FIA World Endurance Championship as well as the United SportsCar Championship here in the US, taking Porsche off the pit wall and right in the race seat for next year as part of a comprehensive new racing program, details of which you can read in the press release below.

Jaguar F-Pace vs. Porsche Macan | Performance luxury crossover comparison

Mon, Jul 16 2018

TRANSCRIPT: The luxury performance crossover. 10 years ago, the list of examples was only a few vehicles deep but today it seems like every luxury car company makes at least one of these. This specific example is a 2018 Jaguar F-Pace S and it happens to be Autoblog 's newest long-term test vehicle. And here's the thing: It's really great to drive. Welcome to the Jaguar F-Pace S. Under the hood we have a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 that makes 380 horsepower and 332 pound feet of torque, which pulls the F-Pace from 0 to 60 in just 5.1 seconds. That's a pretty sizable upgrade from the base model's 247 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. The engine is paired to an eight speed automatic transmission that responds pretty quickly to the paddles when in sport mode. There are three driving modes to choose from: You have dynamic, normal and eco. Even though the F-Pace name sounds like the F-Type, aside from the powertrain, they really aren't related. It's named that because it's based on the rear-wheel-drive Jag XF, just like the E-Pace is on the XE and the J-Pace will end up being based off of the XJ. Even though the F-Pace is all-wheel drive compared to the rear-wheel XF, it is a rear-bias system, which means it belongs exactly where we are right now, on twisty, turny back roads. This is a Jaguar, which means it sounds good but it looks even better. In my opinion, this is the best looking SUV on the market today. The Caesium Blue is a new color in the U.S. for this model year and we opted to get the black package, which includes black side vents, a black grill and roof rails. This is a $70,000 luxury crossover and the materials, they're okay. The plastics, I don't know, they kind of feel cheap even with the luxury interior upgrade package. The 10-inch touch screen is pretty big, in a good way. And while the surround sound isn't the best that I've heard, it's perfectly serviceable, especially since all I want to hear is this engine. For $70,000, this is what you get: A beautiful SUV that performs incredibly on the road. But what if you want more? This Macan costs over $96,000, which is almost $30,000 more than the F-Pace S. If you wanted to, you could buy a base Cayenne and a base F-Pace for that kind of money. But with that price comes more power, thanks to this Macan Turbo's performance pack. 60 more horsepower and 90 more pound-feet of torque than the F-Pace S bringing the total to 440 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque.
