January 1970 marked the entrance to the the US market of the Porsche 914. Anyone who has driven a 914 never forgets it; those who have not MUST do so ....When 914 production ended in 1976 the replacements got heavier and more complex. The mid engine layout, a low center of gravity and legendary 911 Porsche suspension made the 914 much more than the sum of it's parts. When in Production Racing competition, the 914 was so good, there was no real viable competition and most cried "unfair"... even today, a modern Mazda Miata is not really up to the task on the track. This car offered now, was produced in 4/1970, and has covered a low 36,892 miles. It still looks brand new. The underside has full factory undercoating, topside and interior has original finishes and materials, and all body rubber is like new. Truly a "Time Capsule" car. (Please refer to the photographs). In the course of examining this car and bringing it back to life, the classic repairs such as shift bushings, fuel hoses, injector seals, brake lines and other critical items were replaced. Our Porsche qualified technician noted that the injectors and wiring looked like new, just needing hoses and seals. The engine was not cleaned, leaving a very slight coating in the engine sump area to clearly show the very low original miles. Summary -One owner (original California pink slip) -New tires (came with original tires) -Original owners manual (Like new) -Complete tools (Very nice!) -Both original front and rear "blue and yellow" license plates verifies it's California heritage since new -All the spare parts (coil, fuses, wiper blades, etc) in the trunk is what the owner left in the car from the early eighties The car was according to our technically oriented investigation, used sparingly from 1970 to approximately 1984, than stored properly from that point. We brought it back to complete operating status, but it is far too nice to run hard at the racetrack.....The color combination, mileage and condition dictate a future of limited use, or museum status. If you have any questions call Evan at 310-594-4224 or email. Shipping can be arranged worldwide. Thanks for looking!

The mood at this year’s Paris Motor Show: Quiet
Tue, Oct 2 2018The Paris Motor Show, held every other year in the early fall, typically kicks off the annual cavalcade of automotive conclaves, one that traverses the globe between autumn and spring, introducing projective, conceptual and production-ready vehicle models to the international automotive press, automotive aficionados and a public hungry for news of our increasingly futuristic mobility enterprise. But this year, at the press preview days for the show, the grounds of the Porte de Versailles convention center felt a bit more sparsely populated than usual. This was not simply a subjective sensation, or one influenced by the center's atypically dispersed assemblage of seven discrete buildings, which tends to spread out the cars and the crowds. There were not only fewer new vehicles being premiered in Paris this year, there were fewer manufacturers there to display them. Major mainstream European OEM stalwarts such as Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Nissan and Volkswagen chose to sit out Paris this year, as did boutique manufacturers like Bentley, Aston Martin and Lamborghini. This is not simply based in some antipathy on the part of the German, British and Italian manufacturers toward the French market — though for a variety of historical and societal reasons that market may be more dominated by vehicles produced domestically than others. Rather, it is part of a larger trend in the industry. Last year, Mercedes-Benz announced that it would not be participating in the flagship North American International Auto Show in 2019 — and that it might not return. Other brands including Jaguar/Land Rover, Audi, Porsche, Mazda and nearly every exotic carmaker have also departed the Detroit show. Some of these brands will still appear in the city in which the show is taking place, and host an event offsite, to capitalize on the presence of a large number of reporters in attendance. And even brands that do have a presence at the show have shifted their vehicle introductions to the days before the official press opening in an attempt to stand out from the crowd. In many ways, this makes sense. With an expanding number of automakers, with diversification and niche-ification of models and with wholesale shifts that necessitate the introduction of EV or autonomous sub-brands, there is a growing sense that, with everyone shouting at the same time, no one can be heard.
The mid-engine Porsche backstory
Thu, 09 Oct 2014As an automaker's identity evolves over years, its signature becomes defined by any number of factors - heritage (Mercedes-Benz), image (Lamborghini), or market share (Toyota). In the case of Porsche, it was an engineering quirk that forged the German company's most enduring character trait.
Porsche would not have survived - let alone, thrived - in today's saturated landscape had it not been for the 911, and that slope-tailed sports car wouldn't have sprung to life without its predecessor, the 356. While phenomenal success of those rear-engine icons built the company, forays into the mid-engine configuration have played a significant part in establishing the brand's identity.
