Porsche 911 Carrera 2 on 2040-cars
Memphis, Tennessee, United States
The car looks, runs and drives great. The radio and A/C work well. The A/C was converted to 134A refrigerant. I had the original top replaced with a new German canvas top shortly after I bought the car. A year ago I put new Continental tires on the 17-in Turbo rims. A few months ago I had the valves adjusted, plus had the plugs, rotors, distributor caps,fuel filter and oil & filter changed. The car had a clean CarFax Report. I have found no evidence of any accident damage. I don't think the car has been repainted, but the bumpers and a panel or two might have been. If so, the paint was matched perfectly. (I don't know how the bumpers could look so good if not repainted.) The more closely I examined the car after I owned it, the more impressed I was with its condition and the absence of previous "tinkering." I have the original window sticker as well as most of the service invoices for the car beginning in 1996. (Apparently the original owner did not keep them/pass them on.) From the invoices I can tell that the distributors were upgraded to the vented type at 35K miles. The clutch was replaced at 39K miles and the flywheel was upgraded at the same time. From the service invoices it appears that the car has been serviced regularly.

The 2013 Rolex 24-hour race at Daytona comes down to the last hour [spoilers, w/video]
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It took 24 hours to run the race, but it was the last one was stuffed with the high action as four cars were still trying to figure out how to gain victory on the track and in the pits. Along with the obligatory crashes, spins, mechanical issues and retirements had come numerous penalties, a double-digit number of full-course yellows and two hours of fog that turned early Sunday morning into a stretch of parade laps.
The final hour would make up for the morning - drivers who might have been happy just to get on the podium had a shot at victory as the end of the race approached, and that turned into a few gambles that paid off, and at least one that didn't...
Production Porsche 918 Spyder images leak out of Chinese patent office
Wed, 26 Dec 2012A few images of what looks to be the production Porsche 918 Spyder are here to say hello, courtesy of a patent office in China. If these provide an accurate look at what the hybrid supercar will look like, there are a few differences between it and the latest examples of the pre-production prototypes our spy shooters have seen.
The jerry-rigged turn signals inside the headlight enclosures and on the front fenders on the prototype are replaced with more polished units inside the headlamps located underneath the main beams. Behind that, the door handles have been swapped from horizontal latches on the door to vertical openings located just behind the door shutline.
We've also seen a Martini-liveried version of the 918 Spyder that has extra carbon elements that don't appear on this car. It was at the Nürburgring with carbon lips on the front fenders and another carbon element that hung from the rear fenders and ran down to the rear diffuser. When we saw the car on our Deep Dive piece, the front lips were gone but that rear piece remained, and we can't tell from the brochure and options sheet that we've seen so far what it comes with. The wheels from the concept and the green brake calipers, minus the polycarbonate covers, should be the standard fitment while the ten-spoke magnesium wheels will be a 29,750-euro (about $39,000 US) option.
Meet the main man behind the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We have yet to catch our breath from our first drive of the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3, but if you're still not sold on the fact that this track-ready 911 is only offered with a PDK transmission, then you should take it up with Andreas Preuninger. Preuninger is the guy who led the team responsible for the latest GT3. Porsche has released a video giving a little backstory of what went into the development of the car, which had as its goal the creation of a pure, rewarding 911 driving experience.
The video captures the sights and sounds of the GT3 perfectly. Perhaps the best part is listening to Preuninger describe one of the defining moments that resulted in replacing the GT3's manual gearbox with the PDK. We don't want to ruin the video for you, so scroll down to check it out for yourself.
