This is a great car and with very rare dealer-installed OEM A/C. The car was bought new in Texas, and I bought from the second Texas
owner: always a Texas car. The odometer shows 68,661 miles, but does not spin (mileage exempt due to classic
status). All other gauges/lights work. Based on how it looks, fit/finish, and how it drives, I seriously doubt it
has clicked over the 100k mark, in my opinion.
Until recently, the car was driven very little since the early 90's but was run in its garage regularly. The engine
runs great and has no dripping oil and is very clean burning with no smoke. The transmission shifts perfectly and
clutch works perfectly. The suspension, shocks, bushings, tie rods, wheel bearings, etc. are in good condition with
nothing loose or worn. Brakes are good. Nearly $11,000.00 has been spent since March of last year making this an
excellent, attractive and reliable driver. Among the improvements: 5 new Pirelli tires 4 with just a few hundred
miles, and the spare never on the ground (warranty docs convey). New muffler (OEM), rear bearings, new
weather-stripping and window adjustments for sealing, new OEM seals all around the car including doors, targa roof,
both trunks, etc., new spark plug insert, new plugs/tune, fresh fluids throughout, all new brakes, caliper kits,
hoses, pads, rear trunk lock, etc. The car is ready to drive, and it will be a joy! All work done by well known
and highly respected professional Porsche specialist shop in San Antonio.
The interior is almost perfect and certainly for its age is in very good condition. There is one small crack on the
top of the instrument cluster housing and the dash has no cracks. There are a couple of nicks in the seats and
center pad. Door panels are perfect. Carpet is in good condition. You can see from the pictures the overall
condition of the interior is excellent. The top and door seals are new, OEM. Anybody that knows these cars always
checks the battery tray and the subsequent rust trail from the battery tray to the back corner of the passenger
seat. On this car it is very clean and no rust is evident. Both trunks are perfect and look like they just come off
the showroom floor. Now the body!!!. The body and chassis on this car are rust free. The bumpers are in great shape
but need a little buffing to get the shine back. The overall look of the car as you can see in the pictures is
almost perfect, with new, very high quality two tone paint (original Porsche 914 colors). Overall this car has a
great look and presents its self very well. It starts, runs, shifts, and stops as it should, and is a dream to
drive. A near perfect car !!!
1976 was the final year for the Porsche 914. Owned by Porsche Club of America (PCA) member (and racer in a 1971
914-4 2L race car).

2014 Porsche Panamera arrives with new E-Hybrid, long-wheelbase models

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Porsche will officially unveil the refreshed 2014 Panamera at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month, and there's a whole lot in store for the updated model, far beyond the minimal styling tweaks you see here. Sure, there's a new fascia with more prominent LED lighting (including full LED headlamps) and the rump has been tweaked ever so slightly, but the big news for 2014 concerns what's underneath that rakish skin.
First up, Porsche will now offer a Panamera S E-Hybrid model - a plug-in hybrid that builds on the technology first introduced in the Panamera S Hybrid that we tested in 2011. For this new application, a more powerful electric motor and higher-performance battery have been fitted (official specs have not been released just yet), and Porsche says the battery can be recharged in just two and a half hours when the car is plugged in to a 240-volt outlet, and the charging (as well as other vehicle data) can be monitored via a new Porsche Car Connect app available for Android and iOS devices.
The E-Hybrid will have an all-electric driving range of "greater than 20 miles" and will be able to travel at speeds up to 84 miles per hour solely on electric power.

J.D. Power study identifies top seats for your tush

Tue, Aug 29 2017

File under News your fanny can use: The seating systems in the Ford Escape and Edge, the Audi A3, Chevrolet Cruze, Kia Cadenza, Porsche Cayenne and Toyota Tundra received top marks in a new J.D. Power study on seating and seat belt quality and satisfaction. The J.D. Power 2017 Seat Quality and Satisfaction Study asked more than 77,000 new owners and lessees of 2017 model-year cars and light trucks to rate their vehicle's seats and seat belts within the first 90 days of taking ownership. The survey is broken up into seven vehicle segments and scored on total seat problems per 100 within each segment, with awards presented to the seating system supplier. Canadian auto supplier Magna won three of seven first-place awards for its seating systems in the A3, Escape and Edge. Ireland-based Adient got top marks for its seats in the Cadenza and Cayenne. Lear Corp. won for the Cruze, and Avanzar Interior Technologies scored highest for seats in the Tundra. J.D. Power says its study is intended for automakers and suppliers with quality and satisfaction information to be used in developing and marketing seating systems. "But the results are just as interesting to a consumer audience," the company says. "After all, some drivers spend a considerable amount of time behind the wheel, and it's helpful to know which vehicles offer the most comfortable seats for those long commutes." Ain't that the truth. Ford was the only automaker whose seat systems, both manufactured by Magna, received top honors in two segments: the Escape for mass-market compact SUV and the Edge for mass-market midsize/large SUV. J.D. Power says it used 22 attributes to measure seat quality, three measures of seat belt quality and 12 to measure satisfaction. Awards were presented to the seating suppliers.

Former Top Gear crew starts filming for Amazon show

Wed, Oct 7 2015

We might have only a hint at the name and no exact date for a premiere, but fans can celebrate that Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May are filming once again. Plus, it looks like every cent of Amazon's reportedly lavish budget is being put on the screen. A photo tweeted by Clarkson shows the three hosts standing proudly in front of a Porsche 918 Spyder, Ferrari LaFerrari, and McLaren P1 at a racetrack. Clarkson jokes that the show has just a "skeleton crew" but behind him stand several dozen people, a sophisticated-looking camera rig, and two big trucks. This definitely looks worth the anticipation of the premiere on Amazon Prime next fall. Hammond tweeted the same picture and wrote: "The band is back together and it feels brilliant."

Intriguingly, it appears that fellow British auto journalist Chris Harris is currently filming at the same track. He tweeted a photo to Clarkson of the McLaren doing a very smoky slide, while being followed by the other two hypercars. The Porsches in both photos wear the same red-and-white number 3 livery and have the same license plate number. In a later message, Harris was also clear that he wasn't filming there in connection with the trio's Amazon show. This content is hosted by a third party.
