2006 - Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Temple, Texas, United States
Beyond Rare Factory Equipped Carrera Power Kit (X51) 911 C2S. It’s kind of like finding a unicorn. With only 28,500 miles. This is as close as you can get to a GT3/GTS from factory without paying GT3 money. Not to mention, you can keep the comforts of the standard S. Please note, the price of this is higher than a typical Carrera S, because it's not just a Carrera S. It's one of only a handful Carrera Power Kit equipped cars. And, it was equipped when built at the Porsche Factory, not completed by a tuner or a shop. I've only seen two X51 equipped cars on the market this year, grab it while you can. Year: 2006 Mileage: 28,500* (Still being driven) Exclusive Options: Custom order from factory with the following 1. Carrera S Power Kit (16,900) Cylinder heads with flow-optimized intake and exhaust ports Intake Manifold & Throttle Body - Increases inlet size from 76 mm to 82 mm X51 Headers - larger cross-section and optimized flow behavior Carbon Fiber Airbox with two intake channels Modified maps for the DME control unit Sport Exhaust with Chrome Tips & Dash Switch Third Radiator Kit Increased Engine Speed 2. Instrument Dials - Guards Red (860) 3. Seat Belts - Guards Red (540) Options: Black Mats - Porsche Lettering (115) Power Seat Package (1,550) Heated Front Seats (480) Bose High End Sound Package (1,390) Additional Extras: Upgraded Fabspeed Exhaust (Crossover Sports Cats and Headers). Mufflers were retained, which still enables the Porsche Sport Exhaust to operate. Ridiculously amazing sound, at the switch of a button. Condition and Care: Vehicle is in outstanding condition. Some Service history is included in documentation, as well as original window sticker, and all books (manuals, etc.) and 2 sets of keys. Full Service on 12/2013 (22,745 miles) the following services were completed: Oil Change, Spark Plugs replaced, Belts replaced, Cabin Air Filter replaced, Intake Air Filter replaced, Wipers replaced, Brake Fluid changed. Oil change was also completed again on 08/2014. Overall, this vehicle is in outstanding mechanical and cosmetic condition. Having the x51 Power Kit definitely sets this apart from standard 911 S’s. The sound that the x51 Sport Exhaust puts out is intoxicating to say the least. And the Power and handling will speak for themselves. Invoice on this vehicle was 104,000, easily making this the most expensive non-turbo, GT3 997 I have ever seen. The options were tastefully selected, and worth every penny.

Porsche reportedly working on new turbocharged flat-four boxer engine?
Wed, 10 Apr 2013These days, we've seen just about every automaker dropping cylinders in an effort to appease tightening fuel economy and emission standards - and Porsche is no exception. Nearly three years after introducing an all-new V6 powerplant under the front hood of its Panamera sedan (launched with a range of V8 engines) comes word that Porsche is working on an all-new turbocharged flat-four boxer to replace the flat-six engines mid-mounted in its Cayman and Boxster models.
Specifics have yet to be learned, but reports say the engine is a derivative of the current 3.8-liter six (shown above) found under the rear decklid of the Carrera S, yet with two fewer cylinders. Fitted with a turbocharger, direct-injection and the automaker's VarioCam Plus, the new all-aluminum 2.5-liter flat-four will likely develop upwards of 350 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Redline should be about 7,500 rpm. Initial indications say that Porsche will only offer the new engine with its seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic, tuned to take advantage of the low-end torque, but a traditional six-speed manual gearbox has not been ruled out. Despite the loss of two cylinders, enthusiasts will likely embrace the new engine as it promises to be lighter, more fuel efficient and more powerful than the 2.7-liter and 3.4-liter sixes in the Cayman/Boxster today.
Even though Porsche has been using Volkswagen Group engines for years (e.g., Cayenne V6, Cayenne Diesel and upcoming Macan), all indications are that the new flat-four will not be shared. Instead, it will be kept in-house for the automaker's sports cars and possible future fitment in an entry-level 911.
Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911
Thu, 26 Sep 2013According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.
World Car of the Year finalists announced
Fri, 07 Mar 2014To say the 2014 Geneva Motor Show was packed full of news is an understatement as big as the show's home at the Palexpo convention center. Despite everything that we were able to cover during this year's show, there's still more coming out of Switzerland, including the announcement of the finalists for the 2014 World Car of the Year Awards.
We reported on the original list of finalists over three weeks ago, and now, that initial list has been pared down to three finalists for each of the five awards. The finalists were announced at a press conference by frequent Autoblog contributor and co-chair of the awards, Matt Davis (above).
The finalists for the overall title of 2014 World Car of the Year are the Audi A3, the BMW 4 Series and the Mazda3. The World Luxury Car of the Year will be either the Bentley Flying Spur, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, while the Performance Car of the Year will be awarded to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the Ferrari 458 Speciale or the Porsche 911 GT3 (which, um, yeah...).
