Porsche 911 Targa on 2040-cars
Hillsboro, Oregon, United States
My 1977 Porsche 911 Targa in excellent condition with low approximately 132,500 miles in Sienna Metallic. This car was restored in 1995, garage kept and driven little since. The restoration included a complete rebuild of the original engine with upgrades such as Carrera tensioners, case savers, pop off valve in air box etc., a complete high quality repaint, targa top and front leather seats restored, new shocks and struts etc. Around this same time a high quality Pioneer am/fm cassette with amp under passenger seat and 4 speakers was added, the stereo sounds fantastic! In 2009 this car had the complete front battery and suspension pan replaced as well as the front valence. I assume this car had some rust from the battery, which precipitated the repairs. This area is now excellent, perhaps better than new (see pics). These repairs cost approximately $8000. 1977 Porsche 911 cars are completely galvanized to prevent rust and this car has no rust at all, the floor pans and all other areas are excellent. The only area that had rust near the battery is fixed to perfection.Engine number is 6273091, which is a US, 911S 1977 so looks to be original to car. I should have a Kardex to verify whether this car is numbers matching in a couple of days and I will add that info as soon as I can. I just completed a 50 hour concourse detailing of every component including the interior, exterior, front trunk and engine compartment. This car runs and drives fantastic, it is an absolute pleasure and needs nothing to be driven or shown. This car includes the spare tire, an excellent jack and a fantastic, complete tool kit which I would value at $1000. Also included is a correct 1977 owner’s manual cover with green interior...

Porsche Fire and Ice is chilling art born of flames
Wed, 01 Jan 2014Porsche held a contest inviting ten filmmakers to riff on the tagline for the Panamera, "Thrilling Contradictions," in a 60-second film. The winner was an entry called Fire and Ice by director Ross Cohen, a concept that uses just those two elements in a premise as simple as it is rewarding. For his efforts, Cohen will receive a trip to the Chicago International Film Festival, and you might see the short in the pre-movie advertisements in a theater served by Spotlight Cinema Networks.
Porsche did this kind of thing just two years ago, when it asked filmmakers to illustrate the idea of "Everyday Magic". The winner of that contest, Michael Korbel's It's a Magical Life, followed the journey of a young man to husband and father from the perspective of the trunk of a 911. You'll find that video as well as Fire and Ice below.
1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS takes center stage with Petrolicious
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Today, one of the most exciting track toys available is the Porsche 911 GT3. Its forbearer, though, was an altogether different beast that was every bit as exciting. Yes, we're talking about the old 911 Carrera RS that blessed the early 1970s. With a mere 1,580 cars built, meant specifically to satisfy the FIA's homologation requirements, the RS is one rare pre-Malaise era cars.
Complete with a 2.7-liter flat-six engine, this RS of Mark Haddawy is one of the earlier examples of the breed (later cars received a larger, 3.0-liter engine). Still, it can scamper to 60 miles per hour in a very respectable 5.6 seconds and will happily hit 150 mph in a straight line. Sporting Porsche's iconic duckbill rear spoiler, the equally iconic Fuchs wheels, as well as slew of options, as Haddawy points out, each of the nearly 1,600 RS models is its own unique iteration on the Porsche performance formula.
Take a look below for the latest video from the crew at Petrolicious.
eGarage video features Helmuth Bott's personal Porsche 959 prototype
Fri, 12 Apr 2013"We thought we were going to build a super-911," said Peter Schutz, former CEO of Porsche AG of the development of the Porsche 959. That was before it started getting expensive. At that point, Helmuth Bott, Porsche R&D director got frightened. Costs ballooned because of the all-wheel drive, sequential turbocharging and other technology Porsche had never even thought about when it set out to build a 911 to compete in Group B. Schutz continued, "The amount of resources we were committing got totally out of hand." Instead of pulling the plug, Bott doubled down and drew on the strength of his brilliant team to build a car whose impact is still echoing aross the industry.
"It's probably one of our most prized possessions" says Don Leatherwood, Director of the Brumos collection where Dr. Bott's personal prototype resides, and where Frazer Spowart went to see the car and create a video for eGarage. Check out the sights and sounds of the 959 before it was the 959, and get personal takes on the car from Hurley Haywood, Peter Schutz and Don Leatherwood. Keep reading to see the video.
