Porsche 911 Carrera 2 on 2040-cars
Millcreek, Illinois, United States
**Pics of front lower bumper area is just wax, not scratches. Type in ismejia on flicker to see video. Not great but hope it helps.Updated 6/24: Forgot to mention that car has Steve Wong chip. This is a real nice common upgrade on 911's. Chip makes a considerable difference by reducing sub 4000 rpm lag and making vehicle more spirited. Also improved torque and throttle response. Please google 911 chips for more info. Description: Up for sale is my gorgeous example of a rare Slate Gray 964. I have documented service history and maintenance going back over 16 years. All body lines are straight, and she drives and pulls wonderfully. A/C is ice cold and all mechanical functions work as they should. Plenty of power in engine. Interior has no tears, rips, or odors and is all original except for head unit. I have original and functional Blaukpunkt stereo that came with vehicle. Please note that original stereo will be included with sale. My car was upgraded with lighter weight OEM Porsche Cup 2 wheels with professionally powder coated finish to last for years to come. Again, I have original wheels and will include with sale of car. Tires are Bridgestone Potenzas. They are newer and have 75-80% thread remaining. Cup 2 wheels are in fantastic condition with no scratches or curb rash. I invested almost $2k this past month on engine maintenance (all receipts will be given to new owner). New spark plugs, valve cover gaskets, and valve adjustments. Rear calipers were upgraded to bigger OEM Porsche calipers. These provide better overall braking and is a common, but expensive mod on these cars. Also, suspension was upgraded with Bilstein adjustable struts. Clutch was replaced by Porsche dealer at 30K miles. Dash is in good condition with no tears. Car has not been tracked or raced. Only high quality Brad Penn oil used. This is a Clean Carfax car. Drivetrain: Engine and transmission are in perfect working order. Transmission does not slip and it holds the power as it should, motor pulls very strong. Axle boots are in good condition, all wear components have been gone recently inspected. Brake pads are fairly new and have plenty of life left. Like I said, new plugs, valve cover gaskets and valve adjustment were done last week. A new Porsche OEM oil cooler was installed last week due to small leak. This is a dependable driver that needs a new home. I'm only selling due to family situation. Interior: Interior is all original and very nice. I am a non smoking owner. All original manuals and original keys come with the car. Additionally, car has complete and original tool kit. Only thing I miss-placed was original cigarette lighter knob. I have to look harder but I think it's in my garage somewhere. Exterior: The exterior is all original. It does have a few rock chips here and there. This should be expected from a 25 year old car with original paint. Sunroof functions perfectly, and there are absolutely no signs of rust anywhere. Overall the paint is very nice. I would rate it a 9/10. Air cooled 911's are harder and harder to find in this condition. Please look around and you will see what I'm talking about.

Top Gear teases Porsche 918 vs McLaren P1 vs LaFerrari showdown
Mon, Jan 5 2015It's the comparison test we've been waiting over a year to come together: the hybrid hypercar showdown of the century between the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari. They've each got hybrid powertrains pairing eight or more cylinders with an electric motor to drive around 900 horsepower through seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions. They come from exotic automakers with rich racing pedigrees, and each costs around a million bucks. Leave it to the guys from Top Gear, then, to finally put it together. The story adorns the cover of this month's issue of Top Gear magazine, which arranged the showdown – not the television program that started it all. Fortunately, they didn't miss the opportunity to capture the action on video, which will be available to iPad subscribers – but whether you've got access or not, you can catch a short clip of the seven-figure hybrid hypercars right here.

Porsche inspecting 2,500 Euro-spec Macans for damaged brake boosters
Thu, 29 May 2014Porsche is investigating a potential brake issue with 2,500 of its new Macan CUVs. The inspection focuses on the state of the brake systems following tests that discovered the brake boosters may have been damaged during assembly.
Porsche has pointed out that, despite the concern, the affected Macans still meet safety regulations. The issue is predominantly found in European-spec Macans, which according to Porsche, have been delivered to consumers. Owners of affected vehicles in Europe will be notified and asked to come in for a brief, no-cost inspection.
American consumers, though, have no reason to worry. We reached out to Porsche Cars North America, who confirmed that the vehicles in question were assembled before US-spec cars were screwed together.
PSA: Mark Webber can't text and drive and neither should you
Mon, Nov 16 2015Texting and driving is dangerous. You shouldn't do it. We really can't stress that enough. But if you won't listen to us, maybe you'll listen to Mark Webber. The Australian driver is one of the most accomplished in motor racing. As Sebastian Vettel's former wingman at Red Bull, he won nine Formula One grands prix and scored over a thousand championship points. And now as the headline driver in Porsche's endurance racing program, he and his teammates behind the wheel of the 919 Hybrid are currently in the lead to win the 2015 FIA World Endurance Championship with just one round to go. Suffice it to say, then, that he knows a thing or two about the concentration it takes to drive. And it doesn't involve looking at your phone while doing so. To drive that point home (so to speak), he and Porsche put together this little public service announcement. It shows a distracted Webber piloting a 911 GT3 Cup around the Dubai Autodrome in the United Arab Emirates, messing up his racing line, missing his apices, spinning out, and nearly trashing the thing. Does the idea of looking at your phone while lapping a race track strikes you as ludicrous? Well, it should. But then, at the risk of coming across as preachy, so should the idea of texting while driving. Because if a racing driver should know better, so should you. Don't take our word for it, though... take it from Mark in the video above.
