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 shows off Cayman GT4 Clubsport in new video
Sat, Nov 28 2015Amateur racers rejoiced last week when Porsche unveiled a track-ready version of the Cayman GT4 at the 2015 LA Auto Show. Now, the company is doing a bit of publicity for the new track car, featuring the race-ready Clubsport video in a stylish, 53-second video clip. There's not a lot to it, to be honest. We see the GT4 Clubsport, we hear it briefly, but that's about it. So if you were hoping that we'd finally get a look at the stripped down cabin, we're sorry to disappoint you. Still, it's good to see Porsche's newest track car in motion for the first time. For those that need a refresher, the GT4 Clubsport retains the standard car's 3.8-liter flat-six engine, but pairs it with the company's super-fast dual-clutch transmission. Combined with basic safety equipment – racing buckets, six-point harnesses, a full roll cage, and a fire suppression system – and suspension components from the company's other entry level racer, the 911 GT3 Cup, and you get a race-ready, mid-engined coupe for the reasonable sum of $165,000.

Porsche is planning a hybrid version of the 911
Fri, Mar 11 2016Changes at Porsche are coming thick and hot. It's been a few decades since the last major engine technology change – the very dramatic shift from air- to water-cooling. Now we're seeing a turbo shift, in which even pedestrian 911s, Caymans, and Boxsters are being fitted with turbos. Next up is hybrid proliferation throughout the manufacturer's full range. Hybrids aren't new to the Porsche lineup, of course. The Panamera hybrid has appeared in two forms, one in 2012 and one in 2015. Likewise, the Cayenne hybrid was recently upgraded to plug-in spec. The 918 Spyder is also a plug-in hybrid. The 911, Cayman, and Boxster have been left off the hybridization program so far, but that's about to change. The 911 is "next in line" for hybrid tech, says Lutz Meschke, a board member at Porsche AG. That means we'll likely see a hybrid 911 before the fully-electric production Mission E arrives. Every Porsche model will eventually get a gas-electric option, so the Macan crossover and 718 Boxster and Cayman will follow the iconic sports car's lead soon.

The turbocharged base 911 has fractured critical opinion somewhat, although we loved our first drive of the 2017 911 Carrera with its twin-turbo flat-six engine.
