Overall: Zips around like its new. Classiest car on the road even after 17 years. In excellent condition given the year and mileage. All known issues are disclosed below. 

History: It was purchased with 68,000 miles on it in 2010 and has been dutifully cared for since (see maintenance report below; records from when I purchased the car are available). Previous owners seemed to have taken good care of the car as well. They did one touch up paint job on the right side and rear fender due to scratches, but otherwise it has the original paint. Clean car-fax report. It has always been stored in a garage when not in use.

Maintenance Performed in Last Three Years (aside from oil changes):
1) Replaced headlights (8/24/2010)
2) Replaced lower valve cover gaskets (9/13/2010)
3) Replaced engine air duct (9/13/2010)
4) Replaced clutch disk, pressure plate, release bearing and motor mounts (9/13/2010)
5) Replaced alternator and A/C belts (12/17/2010)
6) Replaced A/C compressor w/ clutch (5/25/2011)
7) Replaced battery (9/9/2011)
8) Replaced spark plugs (09/05/2012)

Known Issues and Estimated Costs for Fixing Them:
1) Sun roof missing plastic guide. Opens with switch; needs manual help to keep spring-loaded part out of way when closing. Estimated fix - $150
2) Tear in right corner leather of sunroof (see photos)
3) Rear tire tread starting to wear. Estimated cost of tires - 2 x $272 = $544 (plus installation labor)
4) Failed last emissions test. Estimated fix - unknown. Unlikely to be a serious issue but I do not have details on what is wrong.
5) 6-Changer CD player installed in the trunk does not work.
6) Broken belt monitor. Estimated fix - $150
7) Rear main seal seeping- recommended replacement with clutch. Unknown cost.

General Disclosure:
I will be happy to have a mechanic of your choosing inspect the car at your expense. The car is currently garaged in Houston, TX. This car is in great condition overall. The issues described above are typical maintenance issues that arise with cars of this sort and should be fairly straight forward fixes.

Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

2014 Porsche Panamera arrives with new E-Hybrid, long-wheelbase models

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Porsche will officially unveil the refreshed 2014 Panamera at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month, and there's a whole lot in store for the updated model, far beyond the minimal styling tweaks you see here. Sure, there's a new fascia with more prominent LED lighting (including full LED headlamps) and the rump has been tweaked ever so slightly, but the big news for 2014 concerns what's underneath that rakish skin.
First up, Porsche will now offer a Panamera S E-Hybrid model - a plug-in hybrid that builds on the technology first introduced in the Panamera S Hybrid that we tested in 2011. For this new application, a more powerful electric motor and higher-performance battery have been fitted (official specs have not been released just yet), and Porsche says the battery can be recharged in just two and a half hours when the car is plugged in to a 240-volt outlet, and the charging (as well as other vehicle data) can be monitored via a new Porsche Car Connect app available for Android and iOS devices.
The E-Hybrid will have an all-electric driving range of "greater than 20 miles" and will be able to travel at speeds up to 84 miles per hour solely on electric power.

Volkswagen Group previews its wares on eve of Geneva show

Mon, 05 Mar 2012

The Volkswagen Group is comprised of 11 brands producing 240 vehicles across 49 factories throughout the world. So the best way to show off the range of the VW family is to cram a few thousand journalists and VIPs into a massive makeshift stand to outline the Group's goals, what's in the pipeline and what you'll be able to buy later this year.
To that end, VW pulled out all the stops on the eve of the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, bringing along 10 vehicles from across the range. We'll be delving into the details of each over the next two days of show coverage, but before that happens, you can read all about what we saw tonight from the cheap seats after the break.
