 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 slathers Martini livery on 911, Panamera, Macan and Cayenne

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

This is how we imagine the conversation went in Porsche's Stuttgart headquarters: "Martini livery. Martini livery all the things." Okay, so maybe not, but that hasn't stopped Porsche from showing off images of its entire lineup bearing the iconic racing livery.
While we aren't sure about the questionably yellow 911 and lime green Macan, the navy blue Cayenne and the white Panamera both look pretty spectacular as they lap about the streets of Sochi, Russia.
As for why the liveried sports cars and crossovers were at the site of the 2014 Winter Olympics, we aren't totally sure. Porsche's Facebook page, where the images first popped up, was really light on details. Whatever the reason, we fully support Porsche doing more with Martini livery. Take a look at the full gallery to see what we mean.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013


Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.

Petrolicious studies the purity of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

Water-cooled Porsches are superior to the old, air-cooled models. This really isn't up for debate, despite the mob of Porsche purists, with pitchforks and torches in hand, currently descending on the Autoblog offices. Water-cooled models are more powerful and easier to live with, two factors that make modern Porsches just so darn amazing.
And while we won't hear arguments on anything we've written above, we will say that the old air-cooled models, while not superior, are just, somehow, better. They sound better - a lot better. They're simple, elemental and wildly entertaining things, that just beg for more and more. They rev in a way that forces drivers to work to unlock their power, rather than just push their right foot down. Part of the appeal of air-cooled Porsches, in addition to what we just listed, are the gorgeous cars they're slotted into, like the subject of the latest video from Petrolicious.
Starring a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, this video is a bit shorter than recent ones, but it's no less exciting. This 911, complete with it's sweet-sounding exhaust is the kind of simple, entertaining thing we can watch over and over. Scroll down for the full video.
