I'm the third owner, and have had her almost 5 years.  She is in excellent condition, and has won the local PCA "Peoples Choice" honors twice.  The only thing that doesn't work is the windshield wiper delay rheostat, which is available from the dealer.  She will likely need tires to pass inspection, which I plan to leave to the new owner as tire selection is a personal choice.  The Targa top is original and in excellent condition, never folded.  The driver seat edge piping shows typical wear, and the left front wheel rim has some minor curb rash.  See photos.

Exterior finish is regularly maintained and in excellent shape, though there are a few stone dings on the hood typical of a car driven.  People on the street often comment on the beautiful and unique Venetian Blue color.

I have maintenance records. She has just been serviced: plugs, air filter, A/C charge, engine oil, and transmission oil change.  I replaced the fuel lines (P/N 930-110-595-05 and 930-110-411-03) at 43,454 miles, these are the fuel lines that are a known fire source for Porsches this age.  I replaced the brake hoses with OEM parts and flushed the system at 51,438.  I replaced the front brake pads and the oil tank level sensor with OEM parts at 54,675.

The car comes with a dust cover, owners manuals,  maintenance manual, tonneau cover, service cover (to cover rear fenders while working in engine bay-$130), cat bypass, miscellaneous care car and maintenance supplies, aftermarket air pump and lug wrench.

The car is all stock, except for a dual exhaust installed by the previous owner. The exhaust makes a wonderfully deep sound, an opinion shared by my co-workers and even my wife.  She (the car that is) is a thrill to drive and very dependable.  Two kids in college is why she must be (reluctantly) sold to a good home.

2013 Porsche 911 RSR makes official debut

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Porsche is ready to go racing in 2013, showing off a new 911 RSR today that is scheduled to compete in several endurance events this year. Based on the current 991 911, the new RSR will compete in the 2013 season of the World Endurance Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It will not, however, make an appearance in a North American racing series this year.
The 2013 version of the racecar has increased in wheelbase by some four inches, features a new wishbone front suspension in place of the last-generation's McPherson strut setup and boasts a new, lightweight six-speed racing gearbox. The engine, meanwhile, is an "optimized" version of last year's car, a 460-horsepower 4.0-liter boxer six-cylinder. Extensive use of carbon fiber and polycarbonate windows help the RSR shed weight, and Porsche has also balanced the weight more evenly with a lower center of gravity.
Porsche has thoughtfully dedicated some space to celebrate the 911's 50th Anniversary, with the number 50 clearly visible in the top-down view of the RSR, as well as along the doors. Scroll down to read the full Porsche press release, below.

Porsche Macan sales may push brand past 200K unit goal early

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

In late 2010, Volkswagen announced that it would spend the equivalent of $71 billion through 2015 to beef up its product lineup, determined to overtake Toyota in overall sales and profitability by 2018. Each of VW's many brands, in turn, would play its part contributing to a goal of 10 million sales per year. VW-owned Porsche was expected to sell 200,000 vehicles per year by 2018, but with the imminent arrival of the Macan small sport utility vehicle in 2014, the automaker is poised to meet that goal years ahead of schedule, Automotive News reports.
Porsche sold 143,096 cars in 2012, and IHS Automotive predicts Porsche will sell 63,000 Macans in 2014, according to Automotive News, which would make it the brand's best-selling vehicle. Do the math and you can see how Porsche could easily beat original expectations ahead of schedule. But Porsche's sales and marketing boss Bernhard Maier says not so fast: "We will not offer [63,000 Macans] in 2014 as we will still be ramping up production and introducing models top down," he told Automotive News Europe. Whether Porsche surpasses the 200,000 mark early or not, he said, the company will not set a new sales target and will remain committed to its business model.
The Macan shares its architecture with the Audi Q5, but Porsche will be able to charge more for its SUV. Tim Urquhart, a senior analyst at IHS Autmotive, told Automotive News that Porsche can charge 10 to 20 percent more, for what is basically the same SUV, than other VW Group brands. How's that for brand value?

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
