 This car technically belongs to my mom, but I purchased it originally in July 2006.  I picked the car up in Fort Wayne, Indiana for $6,500 and drove it 13 hours straight to Richmond, Va.  Incredible experience!  We had a fantastic first year together, in which I had the pedal assembly rebuilt with a new master cylinder and updated brake cables etc.  Had zero issues.

In 2007, I decided to "reward" the faithful 912 with a motor rebuild.  I picked the wrong guys to do the engine work (took 3x as long as promised, $1,000+ additional, etc).  So I had a different mechanic install a rebuilt transmission.  All of this put us without the car for almost the entire year.  Horrible.  When I finally picked it up with the new motor and transmission, we made it only about 2 hours before the motor seized (no oil!).  I could never prove which mechanic was ultimately to blame.  Out of money and frustrated, we parked it.

For the next couple of years or so, we slowly replaced and/or repaired the damaged parts (with mechanics' consultation) and gathered what I believe to be all of the necessary pieces to rebuild the motor.  Simultaneously, we took the car to a guy in Martinsville, VA to repair rust etc and paint the 912. It has barely seen the light of day since the body work.  Until January, we kept it in a storage unit.  It has been in my parking lot under a car cover for the past few months.

The interior would be ok with a good cleaning, but there are a few scratches and such as I have only done "necessary" repairs.  We will include some updated seatbelts, still in the box.  Also cool, is that I had a cd player concealed in the glove box back in 2006 with some MB Quart speakers in the doors. 

Today, the 912 is physically in solid shape.  The motor is somewhat if not completely "all there", with ASSEMBLY REQUIRED.  The transmission has only a couple of hours on it.  Wipers, motor, transmission, exhaust, are out of the car, but will be included.  Heater boxes are rusted out, but I'll include them for whatever that is worth.  Actual mileage is unknown.

Selling this car breaks my heart after everything we've been through.  Not to mention that we will never recover the time and money invested.  But we are out of time and money (at least for now), and must sell.  I sincerely hope our 912 finds a good home.

Best,

-Curtis

Porsche 911 Targa Turbo for Geneva debunked, 919 Hybrid and 911 RSR racers coming instead

Fri, 28 Feb 2014

Porsche has proven adept at making sure there is a version of its venerable 911 for practically any wealthy driver's desires. If you just want a great all-rounder then buy a standard 911; open-air driving, then the Cabriolet is for you, and if you need a compromise between them, there is even the new 911 Targa.
Gossip earlier this week surfaced on various websites that at next week's Geneva Motor Show, Porsche had designs on introducing an even higher-performance Targa variant, a Targa Turbo. The rumored mashup would combine the wide body from the 911 Turbo with the super-complicated power roof from the Targa (see right). Assuming no changes in power, that would mean 520 horsepower or even 560 hp in a Targa Turbo S model. Unfortunately, we're hearing that this tasty bit of scuttlebutt is incorrect. Autoblog asked Nick Twork, Porsche North America Product Communications Manager, about the rumor, and his response couldn't have been clearer: "Totally false."
Twork did elaborate that company will be "debuting the Porsche 919 Hybrid, our new LMP1 race car" at the Swiss show, and Stuttgart has also announced this morning that will show its 911 RSR racecar, too - either of which we reckon is a lot more exciting than another Targa variant.

Porsche Cayman GT4 speeds back into view

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

We're all familiar with the succession of numbers that follow the letters GT on a hard-core Porsche 911: the GT1 that was Stuttgart's Le Mans contender in the late 90s, the GT2 that packs turbochargers but without the Turbo's all-wheel drive and excess weight, and the naturally aspirated GT3 that's the enthusiast's choice. But a GT4? That's something new, and exactly what Porsche has in store.
Spied testing in Germany once again is the upcoming GT4 version of the Porsche Cayman, set to supersede the existing GTS and take the place of the previous Cayman R at the top of Porsche's junior sports car range. This latest batch of spy shots doesn't show us much more than the last crop, but gives us a much clearer view at what promises to be the most hardcore Cayman to date.
As you can see, the Cayman GT4 packs a much more aggressive aero kit and rolling stock than any version we've seen to date. It's got a lip spoiler, big air dam and GT3-style vent in front of the hood, deep air scoops along the flanks, a set of spindly alloys packing oversized brakes, a diffuser with twin central exhaust tips around back and a rear wing that's likely to be replaced with a sleeker unit before the GT4 reaches production.

Porsche's baby Panamera delayed until 2019 or later

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

If you're enticed by the idea of a Porsche sedan but find the Panamera to be too big, your hopes may have been raised by the development of the so-called Pajun. But don't get those hopes up too much, because the latest word coming in from the Old World has it that the Panamera Junior has been delayed.
The Pajun was (and theoretically still is, despite tardiness) a project to apply to the Panamera the same winning formula that Porsche used to transmute the Cayenne into the smaller Macan. Its size would be closer to the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E-Class than the larger Panamera, and employ an array of six-cylinder engines.
The smaller five-door was set to be the cornerstone of Porsche Product Strategy 2018, a plan that included several new models to be launched within the next four years. However, reports now indicate that the Volkswagen Group is counting on Porsche to help bolster its profits and is not keen on investing in new products at this time, pushing the Pajun and other projects back until 2019 at the earliest. Although much of the strategy remains undisclosed, it is believed to include (or have included) a sub-Boxster sports car and a supercar to slot in between the 911 and the 918 Spyder. There was also talk of a shooting brake version of the Panamera based on the Sport Turismo concept pictured above. What will become of those projects, however, remains to be seen.
