Porsche 911 Carrera 911 G50 on 2040-cars
Murfreesboro, Tennessee, United States
1987 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 G50 Coupe low miles and rare color combination. It is a 3 owner car from new, I am the 3rd owner on the car. It is all original, no accidents, no paint work, no interior work. This car drives out beautifully. I have put about 1500 miles on the car after doing a major service on it (valve adjustment, oil change, filters, spark plugs), and the car hasn't skipped a beat. Driving the car it is very smooth and tight on the road. The power comes on smooth and strong without hesitation. Car starts up right away every time. Steering is very tight and the 911 drives straight and firm. The G50 transmission lives up to its reputation and shifts flawlessly up and down. Clutch feels great as well and the brakes feel like new. Inside the car, the interior is still soft and full of life...the AC actually works and works well. This is a rust free all original car that is just a pleasure to drive. All this....rare colors combined with the well desired G50 transmission make this late model Carrera a perfect fit for a collector or someone interested in a true classic 911. Details: Mechanical: -Stock 3.2 which is known as one of Porsche's bulletproof engines. Engine is very strong and smooth. Does not smoke other than the typical 911 startup puff. Valves were just adjusted along with oil change, fuel filter, spark plugs and general oil leaks addressed. Case does not leak oil. The engine has turbo valve covers and cat bypass pipe as well. Exterior: -Rare color which comes off as a slight purple/blue. It is a metallic known as Cassis Red from the factory. The paint shines up very well, absolutely no rust on the car externally or underneath. Car has never been painted. There are some scrapes and scratches around the car that appear to be parking lot related. Also the car has the typical rock chips on the front bumper and mirrors. Body panels are all straight with the exception of a couple minor dings. I have shown these in the photos I've included at the end of this description (over 200 photos of the entire car). underneath the car is in great shape. Floors are straight, fuel tank straight, rockers straight. And once again, no rust. Interior: -Inside the car is very amazing for the car's age. Leather looks and feels new. The dash is not raised or cracked, No sagging of the headliner, and the carpets are near perfect. Once again, detailed photos on the link below. The AC holds a charge, and blows nice and cool. Heat, windows, fans, locks, lights all work as well. This car was not optioned with central locking. However it was optioned with power seats, and an alarm. Sunroof works great, no leaks.

New brake pads all around, rotors are excellent and the car has brand new pad sensors. Car was optioned with 15 inch wheels show well for their age, no curb rash.

eBay Find of the Day: 1981 Porsche 928 convertible by Carelli
Wed, 30 Apr 2014The Porsche 928 was perhaps the consummate European GT of its day. With a powerful front-mounted V8 engine that grew in displacement as the model years went on, it was capable of eating up the miles at triple-digit speeds in great comfort for occupants. It was also an unusual beauty, with its sharp front and curved rear featuring innovative integrated bumpers.
Currently for auction on eBay Motors is one of the rarest 928s you're likely to find, in a handsome combination of Guards Red paint and tan leather interior, though we wouldn't mind a less-showy finish to the factory wheels. According to the seller, this car is one of eight 928 convertibles by Carelli Design, a firm that's still in business.
The auction claims that these cars were made in 1981 as a feasibility study between Carelli and Porsche for a possible production 928 convertible. The seller says he worked at the dealership where the car is said to have been originally sold $103,000. To remove the roof and hide the convertible top, there were significant changes made to the body and interior, including redesigned doors and a completely new trunk. As you can see in the gallery, when down, the top is completely hidden in a very factory-like fashion. When up, it looks slightly awkward, though (and we'd really like to see a rear three-quarter view to check out the blind spots).
World's largest toy car collection is in Beirut, and it's remarkable
Fri, Jan 31 2014It's common for auto enthusiasts to have a few miniatures of their favorite cars around their home or office. They provide a respite of happiness knowing that if you can't have the real things, at least you can look at them in miniature. However, Billy Karam of Beirut, Lebanon, has taken collecting toy cars to its extreme. His collection of over 30,000 model cars and 400 dioramas is certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest collection of car toys. "You cannot buy the big ones, so you buy a thousand of the small ones instead," says Karam in the video. Karam is a former amateur racing driver with a weakness for all things Porsche, and many of his dioramas depict races that he drove in or attended. Looking at them gives him a chance to relive the experiences again, but unlike a photo or video, they are right there in three dimensions.

Porsche planning Cayman GT4, 700-hp Turbo S e-Hybrids
Fri, May 9 2014The old wisdom when it came to the Porsche lineup was that the Boxster and Cayman needed to be kept in line so as not to encroach on even the lower end of the 911 range. But with the latest versions of the compact roadster and coupe, that logic has gone out the window. Especially with the introduction of the latest GTS models (pictured above). But that's not the end of the story. According to Motor Trend, Porsche is working on an even more powerful version of the Cayman that could carry the GT4 badge, positioning itself along the same lines as the 911 GT3 and GT2 – only, you know, smaller. Although our sources at Porsche would, predictably, neither confirm nor deny the report, MT has it that power could come from either a turbo-four or a more powerful flat-six, mated to the beefed-up DCT from the latest 911 GT3. A similar version of the Boxster could bring back the RS Spyder designation. That's not all Porsche is said to have in store, though. Based on the engineering that went into the 918 Spyder, Porsche could roll out a new range-topping model for the 911, Panamera and maybe even the Cayenne, packing a version of the 918's PHEV powertrain. Slotting in above the existing Turbo S variants of each model line, the new flagship models could pack 700 horsepower or more and be designated e-Hybrid in similar fashion as the 918.
