I am selling my 1981 Porsche 928 with the rare options of 5 speed and the "Competition Group" package. This car is 1 of 458 made which this option and only 12% or so with the 5 spd. This package came out to wet the whistle of american buyers waiting for the 928 S to come out in 1983. It was equipped with a limited slip differential, Bilstein shocks, Recaro front seats, front and rear spoilers, a padded steering wheel, and flat faced forged 16" wheels which I do not have. The car is in overall good condition but will need some work. The odometer shows 115,000 or so miles. The motor runs and sounds great. It is the stock 219hp all aluminum V8. The gearbox is good but I am having a problem with what we think is the clutch. It will not engage all the way. I think the clutch disc has lost a spring or two and is blocking full movement, only guessing. The rear muffler is rotted. The body is in overall good shape with no rot. The paint looks good from 20 feet but up close it shows a lot of flaws. You can see a lot of rough touch ups and cracking in the paint. See pics. The interior is partially disassembled. The previous owner had the dash cluster and knobs and switches disconnected. Everything is there but needs to be plugged in and re-attached. The main gauge cluster got wet and has corrosion-I would replace. Alpine Cd player is there. A new console and dash cover was installed which is why everything is apart. Seats are faded but no rips and are not bolted in. All the carpet is there. Door panels are decent. Car looks good but needs work. You will not be driving it home. I can deliver locally to the right buyer. The car comes with a rare set of wheels from a 1994 928 S4 and are 17" with worn Dunlop S03 tires. The battery is holding on for dear life since it was dead for awhile. The center section of the front spoiler is missing. The car has all of the original Competition Group parts on it except the wheels. The Recaro seats are there but faded, not torn or ripped. The Limited Slip Differential is there as are the Bilstein Shocks. The padded steering wheel is there but not perfect. The car needs various little panels, trim, and carpet put back. I have everything except the console between the main one and the rear seat one. Door panels are good but need clips fixed.The car runs and drives and brakes work so it can be shipped with a national shipping company without problem. I will help deliver locally if it is close or do my best to help in getting shipping arranged all at my discretion but it is the sole responsibility of the seller to pay for and arrange shipping. As per Ebay rules, I will not end Auction early if there are any bids. Winning Bidder is the New Owner-not tire kicker when you show up. I suggest coming to see the vehicle before bidding ends so there are no issues on purchase. I have done my best to describe vehicle but ask me any questions if you need. Sale is as is, car needs work. Thanks

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder
Mon, 14 Apr 2014That title about says it all. This is a hot lap of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, with Porsche Works Driver Patrick Long at the wheel of a Porsche 918 Spyder. The camera is basically showing us everything that Long sees, making this not just one of the coolest 918 videos we've seen, but also one of the neatest laps of CoTA.
As Long peers through the bends, so will you. You'll see him fight the wheel, and find out just how difficult it is to hustle this hybrid hypercar around a world-class track at speed. It's pretty darn entertaining. There are also a few scattered shots of the 918's exterior just to break up the interior awesomeness, although we aren't exactly complaining about those. Take a look below for the short video from Porsche.
2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 Cup step out early
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Though Porsche won't be feeding us the full 911 enchilada until tomorrow's Geneva-based festivities, we have managed to scare up some official images of the 2014 911 GT3, as well as the all-new 911 GT3 Cup. As Porsche is celebrating 50 years of the 911, we anticipate a good day for great cars.
The new GT3 looks every bit the proper successor to the racy 911 nameplate, with a fixed rear wing large enough to serve cocktails on, a curvaceous body kit and 20-inch wheels that offer a dominating on-road stance. It's a good bet that Porsche will have coaxed something like 450 horsepower from the naturally aspirated, 3.8-liter flat-six engine that hangs over the car's rear axle. A seven-speed manual and Porsche's own PDK transmission are the likely gearbox offerings.
Should the mental quickness and imposing wingery of the standard GT3 not be enough for you, future racecar driver, Porsche is also bringing a GT3 Cup car to Geneva. The German automaker has given just a few scant details about this Cup car - 460 hp on tap, a production run of just 2,400 units - including three images of the kitted out racer. Certainly more and finer details will emerge, when Porsche shines the spotlights on its new 911s tomorrow.
Porsche goes karting in its Cayman GTS
Sun, 03 Aug 2014Think Mini is the king of Go-Kart Handling[TM]? Well, you might be mistaken, as Porsche proves here it's fully capable of delivering a driving experience that'd fit in quite nicely on a go-kart track.
Using a new and very red Cayman GTS, the Stuttgart-based manufacturer invades a kart track in northern Italy and sets the mid-engined sports car loose to slip, slide and zip its way around the circuit. As far as videos for Sunday evening go, this one ticks all the boxes.
Take a look.
