A pretty cool history and a little bit about this beauty: She is originally from Monterey county and belonged to a very wonderful elderly lady who took STELLAR CARE , and was the ONLY ORIGINAL OWNER of this car. She never smoked, never had any pets and it seems as though no one had ever even ever sat in the passenger seat as you may deduce from the PRISTINE condition the interior is STILL in...you can still smell the scent of the original leather inside!!! When this kind lady passed away, she left it to the only boy who had ever worked on the car (it actually was the first car HE had ever worked on in his dads shop back then, of course he is a grown man with his own family and owns that same shop now) who not long after, I was lucky enough to have been introduced to and procured this one of a kind gem. I also have his business card that I can pass on to you so that you can have the full and complete records of any and all work done to this car.
There are a couple reasons why I am selling the car now. The first being that I am pregnant and sadly, I can not parade around town with a newborn in a 2 seater and the top dropped :( And secondly, even if I could have a baby in a 2 seater, WHERE OH WHERE CAN I FIT MY 160 LB CANE CORSO PUPPY?????....and then there is the matter of a 200 LB husband... LOL...so I'm sure my dilemma is clear now, I am doing a whole lot of baby proofing and preparing and THIS, unfortunately, is par for the course...she was great for me just a few months ago...but now she is no longer functional for myself AND my family. I would hate for her to sit and not be enjoyed by another. I am more than happy to answer any other questions that you may have at any time and with a quick call, my husband or myself can be available to show you this TRULY RARE ALL ORIGINAL CLASSIC BEAUTY at your request. Again...we are starting at $6750, but of course, OBO. Thank you so much for your time and hope to hear from you soon!

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
DP Motorsport tries to turn a vintage Porsche 911 into a sleeper
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Once you get past the fact that it's hard to call a car a sleeper when it has race-product stickers on its quarter panel, and the script across the back panel reads "Porsche 911 3.2 Sleeper," it's fun to imagine what this car can do. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Porsche 911, Germany's DP Motorsport took a model from 1986, stripped it of everything - including the paint and undercoating - then replaced everything with lightweight and race-ready parts.
In went race cams and ported cylinder heads, a lightweight flywheel, an RSR titanium racing exhaust, 935-style lollipop seats and RSR carpeting, a lightweight battery, perforated and galvanized hinges and brackets, hardened perspex windows. The 3.2-liter engine puts out 270 horsepower - 70 hp above the stock 911 on sale here in 1986 - and 226 pound-feet of torque through a limited slip differential to staggered wheels. The exterior color is metallic rock-green lacquer.
If you want one, $120,00 is where the part starts, but DP Motorsport says it offers the parts individually if you don't need your vintage Porsche to sleep this hard. On a side note, for a chucklesome journey back in time, check out this review of the 1986 911 that gets things going with this line: "First off, the Porsche 911 is very expensive - how does about 40 thou grab you?" Back on topic, there's a press release below that tells the rest of the story of the 3.2 Sleeper.
Jaguar F-Type coupe to cost more than convertible?
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Jaguar may price the much-rumored F-Type Coupe above the F-Type Convertible, if a report from Australia's Drive is to be believed. What makes Jag think that such a pricing strategy would work? Porsche. Take a look at the German manufacturer's consumer site, and you'll notice that the Boxster is less expensive than the Cayman, despite being essentially the same car.
It's a fair point, and a price premium does a good job of emphasizing the sporting chops of the coupe over the open-air experience that normally entitles convertibles to higher MSRPs. It's unclear just how closely Jaguar will follow Porsche's example, though.
Both the Cayman and Cayman S boast an extra ten horsepower over a Boxster or Boxster S, and while this bump in grunt is negligible in every situation but an argument over which is "best," it isn't something to be ignored in the F-Type, particularly as cranking more power out of its supercharged engines should be a rather simple matter.
