2013 Porsche 911 991.1 C2 on 2040-cars
Corsicana, Texas, United States
More infos regarding my car at: lauranferrato@juno.com .
Arguably the last "real" 911, the naturally aspirated 7-speed manual 991.1 offers the convenience of modernity, while staying true to its history.
This unit, garage kept and never tracked, offers a low mileage opportunity to seize a daily-driver, loaded and ready.
The scheduled 4yr/40,000 mile service major maintenance was just performed, no issues.
This car was factory spec'ed without Porsche Sport Exhaust (PSE) which is a valve operated muffler bypass. Porsche West Houston installed a Sharkwerks X-pipe bypass to give the car a more robust exhaust note. The difference at idle/slow speed is minimal. At RPMs exceeding 3500/min the note becomes more aggressive - and is a full snarl under spirited driving. I am happy to include the original factory parts in the sale.

Car companies may need to start curbing model proliferation
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Looking at the current automotive landscape, especially from German makers, you quickly get the impression that less definitely isn't more. BMW alone offers its 3 Series platform in practically every segment possible, including the regular sedan and 4 Series Gran Coupe, which would seem to be direct competitors. Porsche might be the winner, though, with 20 different variants of the 911 listed for sale on its US website. However, some of this model madness might be reaching an end as companies begin cutting back spending or shifting money to other priorities.
According to Yahoo Finance, the offerings from the German automakers are up 25 percent over the past three years to over 200 models in Europe. The peak is expected to come around 2018 at 230 separate vehicles, according to consulting company PwC.
Amazingly, BMW, which is among the poster children for this model explosion, might be changing its tune. "I'm sure there will be points in the future where we look at certain cars and say, 'Maybe we need to think differently now,'" said head of sales Ian Robertson in an interview, according to Yahoo Finance. The statement certainly sounds shocking coming from a company rumored to have 23 front-wheel-drive vehicles all using a single platform on the way.
Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
