1976 Porsche 912 E 1976 Porsche 912 E 2-Door Coupe
Vehicle Description 1976 Porsche 912E featured here in Desert Beige (1 of only SIX Desert Beige 912's ever registered http://www.912registry.org/restore/rare912colors.htm ) over a brown/ orange interior. This car is very "period"correct and has only one option that I can see: air conditioning. No sunroof. No tinted windows. No Fuchs. No passnger side mirrior. Just a simple yellow 911 with a 4 cylinder motor... It's called a 912E, has a unique place in Porsche history and offers a very pure driving experience. This car DOES NOT have the smog pump installed but it DOES have the original fuel injection installed (the engine was NOT converted to carburetors) and so the smog pump could reinstalled after purchase but it may not be cheap... Many of you also know the history of the 912E. It was made in the model year 1976 only and was an interim offering to bridge between the outgoing 914 and the 924 which was not finished and ready for production. Only 2092 examples of the 912E were made and this is number 2033 (so late in the run). Porsche needed an "entry level" and fuel efficient model in addition to the 911 and so the 912E was born. http://www.porsche912e.com/docs/about.html Unlike the 912 of the late 1960's which used the 356 motor and had a different rear subframe to the 911 of that time, the 912E has a 1976 911 chasis and rear subframe which is modified to house the 914 4-cylinder motor. As such, dropping a 6-cylinder in the 912E is not too challenging. However, the extra power of a flat six may take away from the charm and unique nature of the 912E. Here is an example of how intoxicating they are: http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/index.php/porsche-912e And they hold their own on the track with a 4-cylinder!! It is a full Porsche 911 chasis after all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCY3hv_qbGo This car has been fully inspected, sorted, restored and repaired.

Porsche moving all Boxster/Cayman production to Zuffenhausen
Fri, Jul 17 2015The Porsche Boxster and Cayman have been built at a variety of locations over the years. But in its latest announcement, the German automaker has revealed its intentions to bring production of its entry-level models back home to Stuttgart. The decision was announced today as part of a major investment program being undertaken by Porsche. Porsche intends to spend over ˆ1.1 billion (equivalent to over $1.2 billion at current exchange rates) to expand several of its facilities. Those include the factory at Zuffenhausen, the sales and marketing department at Ludwigsburg, and the famed R&D facility at Weissach – all of which would undergo upgrades and renovations by 2020. The biggest component of the wide-ranging plans, however, would ostensibly be the expansion of the Zuffenhausen assembly line. While the Panamera, Cayenne, and Macan are handled largely at a second facility in Leipzig, the 911 is built at the company's historic home at Zuffenhausen, on the outskirts of Stuttgart. The Boxster and Cayman are built there as well, but excess capacity has been outsourced to other facilities: first by Valmet in Sweden, and then at the former Karmann plant in Osnabruck, Germany. That additional off-site production, however, will come to an end starting in August 2016, both for the current models and their replacements. In addition to the expansion of the assembly plant, the Zuffenhausen site will also get a new body shop and engine production facility. In the process, Porsche has also ruled out laying off any workers until 2020. The entire proposal was announced by the company's Executive Board and the General Works Council that represents its employees, but still needs to be approved by the Supervisory Board.

The Executive Board and the General Works Council of the Porsche AG have adopted a pioneering package of measures for the long-term safeguarding of the company locations. Porsche is to invest more than a billion euros in the expansion of its factories. The objective of the new agreement with the title "Fit for the Future" is also to boost the productivity, flexibility and efficiency of the company while maintaining the social standards for the employees.
2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed statue unveiled
Thu, 11 Jul 2013Each year at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, a single marque is celebrated with a large and ornate "Central Feature" sculpture, with recent automakers including Audi in 2009, Alfa Romeo in 2010, Jaguar in 2011 and Lotus last year. This year, Porsche gets the honor, and it is using the opportunity to commemorate 50 years of the 911.
The sculpture features three generations of the 911 towering over the Goodwood House. The most recent 991 911 has the lowest position, with an original 1963 car second highest and a 1973 2.7 RS at the top of the pile. Be sure to check out the sculpture for yourself in the gallery of images above.
Audi will submit emissions fix for 3.0 TDI V6 to EPA and CARB
Tue, Nov 24 2015Audi will develop a software update for the emissions control system on Volkswagen Group's 3.0 TDI V6 and will submit the changes to the Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board for approval. If the government regulators accept it, the tweaks could end the emissions problems for an estimated 85,000 of these engines in the US in Audi, Porsche, and VW models. However, the stop-sale still covers these vehicles until further notice. Audi admits in its statement to failing to disclose three "auxiliary emission control devices" on the V6 to regulators, and US law considers one of these systems a defeat device. VW Group offered the engine in the US on the Audi A6, A7, A8, Q5, and Q7 since the 2009 model year. The mill was also available on the VW Touareg and Porsche Cayenne. The EPA filed a violation against the 3.0 TDI on November 2 because the agency reported that the engine's software contained a defeat device to circumvent emissions tests. The regulator recently extended that notice to cover these powerplants in the US from the 2009 to 2016 model years. Audi's statement vaguely estimates the price of this problem to be in the "mid-double-digit millions of euros," and the automaker could face financial punishment by regulators. "Determinations regarding potential penalties and other remedies will be assessed as part of the investigation EPA has opened in conjunction with the US Department of Justice," an EPA spokesperson told Automotive News.

That is the result of the discussions held between a delegation from AUDI AG and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The updated software will be installed as soon as it is approved by the authorities. The three brands Audi, Porsche and Volkswagen are affected. Audi estimates that the related expense will be in the mid-double-digit millions of euros.
