Porsche introduced the new generation 911 called the 996 in 1999. This is the first year of the water cooled
Porsche 911. The 996 motors and the Boxter motors during the first four years of manufacture proved to be good
motors except for the failure of the Intermediate shaft bearing. The reason for the failure was because of a
design flaw of the part by Porsche. They made this a sealed bearing, which over time and use, spun the lubrication
out of the bearing, and because it was sealed, oil passing through the motor did not provide additional lubrication
to the intermediate shaft bearing. Once lubrication was absent; the ball bearings would grind against the other
ball bearings and a bearing failure would occur, putting metal pieces through out the motor effectively destroying
the motor. Do not consider buying a 996 Porsche unless the Intermediate shaft bearing has been up graded! This
being said; this car has just had this up graded Intermediate shaft bearing replaced two weeks ago. At the same
time, because the clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing has to be removed to install the new Intermediate
shaft bearing; a brand new High Performance Sacs Clutch, Pressure Plate, and throw out bearing has also been
installed in this car by a Porsche Factory certified mechanic. (Receipts available with purchase of this vehicle.)
This 996 Porsche is a Carrera 4 which signifies that it is a 4 Wheel Drive vehicle. This car is a three owner car,
with all maintenance records since new with the vehicle. The car was sold new here in Knoxville by Harper's
Porsche Audi
for over $82,000.00 in 1999. Original window sticker is included in the sale. This car has never been wrecked,
and has a clean Car Fax, also provided with the sale of this vehicle. The vehicle now has just a couple of miles
over 46K. Since buying the car last August, I have spent over 10K doing a complete re-body and paint to make the
car look like a 2011 GT3RS. Modifications include; GT2 Front bumper cover with real Carbon Fiber accents on front
spoiler lip. Turbo lower side valance's on both sides. 997 Style GT3 Wing with real Carbon Fiber on Wing Blade. I
also bought a brand new set of OEM 19"Turbo wheels (8.5" Front 11" Rear) and had them Powder Coated Guards Red.
Less than 100 miles since mounting on the car. Absolutely NEW with NO curb rash at all. Pirelli P-Zero tires with
90% + tread remaining. ( 235-35-19 Front - 285-30-19 Rear) To complement the look of a $200K Porsche GT3RS; I
also installed a New High performance Cold Air Intake Inhaler in Yellow to match the exterior, and a brand new
Chrome Cat Back Exhaust System, eliminating the stock mufflers. (The original mufflers will be included with the
vehicle.) Additional maintenance just completed on the vehicle includes. New Alternator, New Battery. Oil change, 4
Wheel alignment. The vehicle also has brand new set of 4 Lloyd Floor Mats with Custom designed logo's. Everything
works as it should; all gauges, power seats, radio, stereo, sunroof. No engine lights with the exception of the
wing light for the rear wing comes on after driving the car over 70 MPH for some time.
That is because the power wing was removed to put on the 997 GT3 fixed wing. ( Original power wing included with
sale.) The 996 GT3RS was actually produced by Porsche in 2003 and 682 were produced but none were sold in the
United States.

Porsche Boxster spied in the buff

Thu, Aug 6 2015

Porsche is preparing a significant update to its entry level Boxster convertible, and while visually this might appear to be a simple refresh, the changes are more than skin deep. Following a number of rumors, Porsche will finally make the jump to turbocharged engines on a broad scale, and it starts with this new Boxster. According to our spies, it's the larger side intakes featured on this prototype that give away its smaller, force-induced flat-four engine. The dual exhaust pipes, meanwhile, say Boxster S to us, rather than just the basic model. Beyond the mechanical changes, this marks the first time we've seen the new Boxster completely free of camouflage. We can see that Porsche's stylists – famous for revolutionary designs slowly tweaking the same style for decads on end Â– adjusted the look of the front and rear fascias. We like the more aggressively canted headlights, which get the same four-pointed LEDs as its big brother, the 911. The slimmer taillights are a minor improvement on the inoffensive lamps fitted to the current car, and serve to take some attention off the all-plastic exhaust surround, which is much more simply styled than the current car's. It should also be noted that the aesthetics featured on the new Boxster are very, very likely to be transferred directly onto the new Cayman. You can check out our full gallery of shots of the all-new, totally undisguised Boxster in the gallery up top. Expect to see the new roadster around this time next year, with a debut at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show likely. Related Video:

Porsche continues facelift spree with 911 Turbo

Fri, 24 Jan 2014

If there's ever been automotive case for constant evolution, it is the Porsche 911. It seems like every time a new version of the rear-engined sports car debuts, Porsche is already hard at work on a facelifted version of it that changes some subtle, barely noticeable aspect.
Such is the case with this round of images of a facelifted 911 Turbo, which was seen undergoing winter testing alongside the facelifted, hardtop-version of the 911 Cabriolet we showed you yesterday. The new, 991-based 911 Turbo was just unveiled in May of 2013.
Like the Cabrio from yesterday, both the Turbo and naturally aspirated models shown here feature additional slats at the rear of the car, right behind the rear wheels. These slats on the standard model lend credence to what we learned yesterday - that even the regular 911 models could end up getting turbocharged mills.

6 car mashups that God never intended

Sat, May 17 2014

In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.
