 I bought this Certified Pre-Owned Porsche 911 Turbo Coupe around August of 2012.  It had 17,000 miles exactly.  It is CPO by Porsche for about another 19 months if memory serves me correctly.  The asking price for this car was just over $94,000 when it was on the lot; then I spent about $15,000 in upgrades listed below.  It is in near flawless condition. 

Factory Upgrades Include:  (coming soon; Certificate of Authenticity on way from Porsche.  This will show every option and original MSRP.  I will post ASAP.  Most notable upgrades are the seat belts in Guards Red, the red stitching throughout the car, the leather trimmed floor mats (in addition to bright red after market mats that look OEM IMO), carbon fiber throughout, Sport Chrono package, etc.  The Overboost function is very nice.  

After Factory Upgrades include:  3m clear protective bra ($1,500), Fabspeed Version 3 Exhaust (around $3,000 retail), Champion Motorsport headers ($2,900 installed), CPU reprogram (around $2,300), and Ruger 19 inch rims (retail around $2,600), front LED daytime running lights from Vivid Racing (about $1,500 installed), and rear LED lights (about $1,000 installed); for a GREAT video on the front LEDs (which of course blink orange when turn signal is activated) in action, click on the following link from a PC http://www.ebay.com/itm/AP-Complete-Front-Bumper-LED-Daytime-Running-Light-Kit-Porsche-997-Turbo-07-12-/360506294846?hash=item53efd9823e&item=360506294846&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr     The LEDs make this 2008 look MUCH newer.  The car was Dynoed at 553 horsepower at the wheel which is about 100 more than the stock Turbo has if you discount the mfg. claimed 480bhp.  It's fast.  It is an extremely noticeable difference from the stock Turbo and sounds 10 times better even at idle.  The exhaust was done at Porsche of Tyson's Corner, and the rest was done at Intersport in Vienna, VA.  

The car runs beautifully.  I would give it a 9.5/10 inside and 9.5/10 inside.  I have recently taken a large pay cut at work and got married in November so I have decided to get rid of this car.  Thank you and please email me with any questions.

Porsche 918 Spyder roars electric through London

Sun, Jun 29 2014

The Porsche 918 Spyder can be an object of lust for anyone who appreciates the finer things in the automotive world, but for us greenies with penchant for speed, the car is an icon. This gorgeous, all-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid offers 887 horsepower and 940 pound-feet of torque, can do 0-60 in just 2.5 seconds and is capable of 214 miles per hour. It lapped the Nurburgring in a record 6:57. Still, it is capable of near-silent, relaxed cruising through one of Europe's busiest cities. In a new video from Porsche, chief driving instructor Gordon Robertson takes the 918 to London and does just that. While driving in E-Power mode, he describes some of the things that make the car special, as well as how the technology has developed through the 911 GT3 R Hybrid and the 919 LMP1 car to eventually be passed onto the Panamera S E-Hybrid. If you're interested, you can learn more about the car in our own drive review, here. It's great to see, for the first time, the 918 Spyder driving alongside London's black cabs and double-decker buses. The rubbernecking from pedestrians is noticeable and completely understandable. I'm sure we'd all love to see this car come silently sneaking down our own city streets, but until Porsche makes that happen, you'll just have to enjoy the video below.

Paul Walker's accident due to 'speed, and speed alone'

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

Following an investigation into the crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and driver Roger Rodas, an unnamed law enforcement source told the Associated Press that there were no signs of mechanical failure on the Porsche Carrera GT that was destroyed in the accident.
The report from The Huffington Post claims the officer in question blamed "speed, and speed alone" in the fatal accident. The same report ruled out the presence of debris in the road, which may have caused Rodas to lose control of the V10-powered super car.
Engineers from Porsche are traveling to California to investigate the accident with the help of the Carrera GT's on-board data recorder. Until then, investigators won't speculate on the car's speed at the time of the wreck.

VW, Mobileye to bring new automated tech to series production

Wed, Mar 20 2024

Volkswagen will bring new automated driving technologies to series production as it deepens its partnership with Mobileye in automotive driving technologies, Europe's biggest carmaker said on Wednesday. Israeli automotive tech company Mobileye will provide driving assistance software based on its SuperVision and Chauffeur platforms to VW's luxury brands such as Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche. The technologies, which later will be integrated by VW's software unit Cariad, include assistance systems for highway and urban driving, such as automated overtaking on multilane highways, automatic stopping at red lights and stop signs, and support in intersections and roundabouts. "New automated driving functions will significantly boost convenience and safety," VW Chief Executive Oliver Blume said. Mobileye is also set to supply further automated driving software to Volkswagen's commercial vehicles unit. In future, the German carmaker aims to rely on its own complete in-house software system.
