The 993 is the last of the air cooled, some would say the last of the best Porsches made.  This is the narrow body C4 which is by far the most rare of the standard 993 models, with only 1860 delivered world wide.  I am the third owner and have owned the car since 2009.  The car has been in Texas, Colorado, California and is now back in Colorado.   Since I have owned the car it has always been garaged and never driven in the rain or any inclement weather.  There are no dents on the car, one slight ding on the passengers door was repaired.  It doesn't photograph and you actually can't see it.  There is a small chip in two of the 17" cup wheels.  The wheels are shod with good Michelin Pilot Sports tires, 205/50/ZR17 front and 255/40/ZR17 rear.  Center caps for the wheels are painted black Carrera 4.  Everything works on the car, there are no mechanical issues.  I have the entire service history for the car, including the original window sticker and the original bill of sale.  The interior of the car is in great shape with no rips, tears, or cracks.  The car was never smoked in.  Front seat bolsters show the usual wear patterns on the seat bottoms.  The original radio has been upgraded with a euro model Becker Grand Prix, which exactly matches the 993 dash board.  It has iPod connection as well as a disk player and bluetooth connection.  Speakers were up graded with Focal speakers installed in the stock speaker locations.  The entire sound system looks perfectly stock.

The car is from my collection and is pristine inside, outside, top an bottom.  I seriously doubt you can find one cleaner.  It comes with all books and records.  All glass is great and free from chips.  I have in hand a clear Colorado title

I have tried to describe this car as well as I can.  I'm a knowledgable owner/enthuaist but occassionally everyone misses something.  I encourage you to come inspect the car in person or arrange for a PPI.  Since we took the pictures we have retired and moved from California to Colorado, about 1 hour north of Denver.

The successful bidder must provide a $1000 non-refundable security deposit within 48 hours of the end of the auction.

Below is a scan of a PPI I had done as a service to the bidders, frankly it doesn't read to be very thorough, but on the other hand the tech seemed to have really gone over the car.  I want you to know and I will inform all bidders.  It looks as though at one time before I owned the car the stone guard onthe rockers was refreshed.  I was going over all the service files and my servicing point, Hergesheimer MotorSports, picked up faint tape line on both rocker panels.  It was in some fine print and I'd never seen it before.  I just went out and checked and sure enough although the match is perfect the stone guards have been touched up.  I'm pretty sure from the factory there wouldn't be a tape line.  It looks like a small popsicle stick and some 1000 grit sand paper would take care of the line.  They're very faint.

Also the trim covers for both doors (they're plastic covers on the very front of the door) are cracked.  They're $3.99 each and should have been replaced but weren't.  Finally there are 3 scratches on the passenger side sill trim, that's a black rubberized plastic.  Hergs also found a surface scratch both the hood and fender, my detail guy polished them out.

Although no CEL was thrown Hergesheimer did detect fault codes PO410 #80.  They traced the fault to the check valve and air boot both were replaced, and I've never had any problems (in fact I never knew there was a problem)

Think that's about it.

Thanks
Bill

One more update.  My detail guy just told me he thought the front and rear bumpers had some repaint.  I can't tell,  but bidders need to evaluate this information in their bid


Thanks

Le Mans-winning Porsche 956 up for auction at Pebble Beach

Sun, Jun 21 2015

Collectors looking to get their hands on a piece of racing history will want to be in Monterey this August. That's where Gooding & Company will be auctioning off the genuine Le Mans winner you see here. One of the finest examples of the Group C era, this 1982 Porsche 956 won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1983 – the eighth time the German marque won the legendary French endurance race, en route to the record seventeenth win it racked up at La Sarthe this year. This 956 was the third of only ten examples made, complete with Rothmans livery and unimpeachable history. It debuted at Le Mans in 1982, where it placed second behind another Rothmans-liveried 956, and went on to win the next four races it entered. The following year, the two Porsches switched places in the winner's circle at Le Mans, securing this car's place in the annals of racing history. Now set to cross the auction block at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Gooding projects this most historically significant Porsche to fetch between $7,000,000 and $9,000,000 once the gavel drops. According to the Sports Car Market database, that would make this the most valuable Porsche ever sold at auction, eclipsing the 1972 Porsche 917/10 Can-Am racer that Mecum sold for $5.83 million in Monterey three years ago. It would also far exceed the ˆ2.35 million ($3.15m) paid at RM's auction in Paris last year for another Rothmans-liveried 956 that completed the 1-2-3 finish at Le Mans in '82. That is, assuming 956 #003 sells this time: the last time it crossed the auction block, it failed to sell after a high bid of $2 million. Le Mans-Winning Rothmans Porsche 956 Roars its Way to Gooding & Company's Pebble Beach Auctions SANTA MONICA, Calif. (June 19, 2015) – Gooding & Company, the official auction house of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance®, is thrilled to announce the addition of one of the most important and desirable competition cars of all time to its Pebble Beach Auctions. The 1982 Porsche 956, chassis 003, was the outright winner of the 1983 24 Hours of Le Mans and the most successful example of this revolutionary and dominating series of Group C cars. The sale of this factory Porsche racing machine presents an incredible opportunity to own a significant piece of motorsport history and it is sure to be a highlight of Gooding & Company's internationally renowned auction, taking place on August 15 and 16, 2015 in Pebble Beach, California.

Chris Harris hits the track with the Porsche Cayman GT4

Wed, Mar 11 2015

The Porsche Cayman GT4 offers the first legitimate chance for Porsche's more compact coupe to really step out of the long shadow of its brother the 911. By placing the 385-horsepower Carrera S engine into the center of a Cayman and sweetening the package with a ton of truly high performance parts, the model can now really show off. The ever-enthusiastic Chris Harris puts on quite a display behind the wheel of the German brand's latest hardcore creation. As is his wont, Harris slides the GT4 all over the Portimao circuit with little wisps of smoke wafting up from its rear Michelin tires. However, what he gets really excited about is Porsche's decision to fit a real manual gearbox, rather than the PDKs rapidly taking over the company's highest performance vehicles. For anyone who loves seeing a sports car's oily bits, stay tuned all the way through because after hooning around for awhile, Harris puts the model up on a lift to find out what's so special. Porsche touts the GT4's 911 GT3-derivied front suspension, but this really shows just how many mechanical adjustments it offers the demanding driver. Related Video:

2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

I don't care who you are; when a new Porsche 911 rolls up in your driveway, that's a pretty good day. This was my very first experience with Porsche's 991 911, and after having spent time with just about every tune and trim of the last car, I was hotly anticipating comparing and contrasting.
Somehow (I don't remember sending out any cash-filled, unmarked envelopes) I'd scored a week in the 911 Carrera 4S over a long holiday weekend, too. That meant that I'd get to A) log a ton of miles in one of the best cars in the world, B) get to show-off the Porsche to family and friends and C) tempt cops in three states to pull me over. Good thing I've got the Autoblog traffic lawyer on speed dial...
