Calling all U boat Captains.


My name is Edwin McCain,

If you don't get that joke then you didn't imprint on the 928 as a teenager like I did.  This was one of the baddest production cars made when I was 16 years old.  I fell in lust with it the first time I saw one.  I'm not gonna use the word love because I LOVE my wife and children.  I have owned two of these cars in my lifetime.  One that wasn't all that hot and this one that is AMAZING.

I have really enjoyed this car for the last 15 years but I have come to a crossroads.  I recently shot an episode of a show called Celebrity Bucket list for the Biography channel.  I asked them to help me bring some much needed attention to a school in Greenville S.C. called the Meyer Center.  Meyer Center dot org.  I love this little school and everything it stands for.  I am hoping that the episode will start an endowment to help with the operating costs.  The Meyer Center takes everyone who needs them regardless of their ability to pay.  I have been doing shows and raising money for the Meyer Center for over a decade and I decided that I would put in the initial gift into the endowment except I don't have much cash at the moment. (long story)  I am always singing about the true value in this life being about friendships and kindness so I decided it was time to pony up the "prize possession" and put my money where my mouth is.  100% of the sale price of this car will go to help me start the endowment for the Meyer Center.  I will also include one of my personal guitars that and I will deliver the car and play some songs for you and your friends if you would like.  Keeping in mind that I work mostly on weekends you will need to be a little flexible on the delivery day.  Some of you are wondering "who the hell is Edwin McCain?"

This car has been expertly maintained by Ray Munsch in Raleigh N.C. who now works with the Ingram Collection, one of the worlds most prestigious private Porsche collections.  If you have serious interest in the car I can put you in touch with Ray directly to answer all of your questions.  I can provide service records that show that this car has new timing belt and tensioner, fuel lines, brakes, clutch an aluminum flywheel,timing belt,fuel filter, struts,clutch, a short throw shifter and new exhaust including high flow catalytic converters.  I powder coated the original rims and "murdered" the car in all black. There is a custom alpine stereo with a subwoofer put in a custom box in the back, all with Ipod connections and (ahem) passport radar connection hard wired.  It came from the factory with a 5 speed transmission (rare) and leather dash (also rare).  It has Michelin tires with plenty of tread left.  I have the original window sticker for the car and all the previous owners service records.  Anyone who knows me knows that the fact that I still have all the records is a total miracle because I am not the most organized person in the world.  It also should give you an idea about how special this car is. 

BUT It has some flaws.  Brace yourself.  There is a paint chip on the hood that is being touched up as we speak.  All the gages work EXCEPT the speedometer and odometer.  Those stopped about a year ago and I never repaired it because I never thought I would be selling it plus who cares because fast is fast baby.  (and passport tells me speed).  Cruise control doesn't work.  Never tried to fix it, never used it.  Ray knows a shop that can fix the speedometer problem easily.  I honestly don't know what it would take to fix the cruise control.

The odometer reads 119k ish but I figure that to be 120-123k.  I drive this car mostly on road trips.  It has the typical slight warping on the rear cap from general age but thats typical with these cars.

I am embarrassed to say that I tossed and turned a bit when I came up with this idea initially but I know in my heart its the right thing to do.  I know whoever buys this car will enjoy it as much as I have and who knows maybe I will have another friend when its all said and done.  My life has been a beautiful adventure and I really believe the friendships I have made are the greatest reward.  

Bid knowing that every dollar will go to provide loving care to children born with developmental challenges.  I have seen the miracles that happen in this place every day. 


Thank you in advance for your help.

Alonso wants an NSX, but did Honda block him from Le Mans?

Tue, Jan 20 2015

One of the biggest changes in store for the 2015 Formula One World Championship will see Fernando Alonso moving back to McLaren. That means he'll be driving under Honda power for the first time, after spending the bulk of his career driving for Renault and Ferrari. And being Honda's new poster child, as the two-time World Champion is fast discovering, has its advantages and its drawbacks. According to the latest reports, Alonso had been negotiating a clause in his contract with McLaren that could have seen him driving a Porsche 919 Hybrid at Le Mans this year, but Honda reportedly stepped in at the last minute and scuttled the plan. The drive would have been Alonso's first in the famous 24-hour race, after having had the honor of waving the flag at La Sarthe last summer. In one of the wilder rumors that emerged during the prolonged silence over his move for this season, the Spaniard was also linked to a potential return for Ferrari to Le Mans. That prospect came to naught, and now the Porsche deal has been wheeled into the garage, as well. The upcoming F1 season is expected to be one of transition, adjustment and development for McLaren and Honda, but the Japanese automaker's involvement in his hiring may not be all bad news for Alonso. Following the reveal of the new Acura NSX, Alonso tweeted "You still don't know, but one day we will be together..." followed by a series of heart-eyed smiley-face emoticons and accompanies by images of Honda's new supercar. The implication is that the two-time World Champion is expecting to get his talented hands on an NSX of his own, and we can certainly see how Honda would appreciate the imagery of Fernando driving around in its flagship. Even if it doesn't, though, we're sure McLaren would be glad to hook him up with a company car of its own – though Lewis Hamilton encountered some trouble securing (a very specific) one for himself. Even discounting the front-running F1 machinery he's been tasked with piloting on track to an impressive 32 career wins, Alonso has had some lustworthy company cars at his disposal over the years. At Renault, he had a Megane RS to drive, and during his last stint at McLaren, he had an SLR 722. But since signing with Ferrari, he's been given the keys to FCA models as varied as a Ferrari FF, a special 599 GTO, a Maserati GranCabrio, a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and an Abarth 695... and those are just the ones we know about.

Weekly Recap: Bentley Bentayga leads luxury SUV charge at Frankfurt

Sat, Sep 12 2015

The Bentley Bentayga is launching a new era of ultra high-end sport utility vehicles that will see luxury makers vie for the world's richest and most exclusive customers. The Bentayga is Bentley's first SUV, and it will formally debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It's loaded with Bentley's best technology and features, led by a 600-horsepower W12 engine. The mission is simple: stop giving up sales to other companies by not having an SUV in its portfolio. "It creates an entirely new category of ultra-luxury SUV, where there are currently few rivals," IHS Automotive analyst Ian Fletcher said in a report. But Bentley and the Bentayga will soon face stiff competition. Archrival Rolls-Royce will produce its own crossover to be built in England, though timing is unclear. Lamborghini has approved plans for a ute that will be assembled in Italy and launch in 2018. Even the sportier British brands are getting into the market. Aston Martin will make a crossover version of the DBX concept shown earlier this year in Geneva, and Jaguar is launching the F-Pace crossover, which will debut in Frankfurt. These new entries will invigorate a segment that's comprised of the Mercedes G63 AMG and the Land Rover Range Rover SV Autobiography, and Bentley is poised to grab a large share of it, Fletcher noted. IHS forecasts Bentayga sales could hit 3,000 units per year in 2017 and 2018, pushing total Bentley sales to more than 10,000 in the next few years. The vehicle will also get plug-in hybrid and diesel variants to widen its reach. The Bentayga is a sales grab, for sure, but Bentley took care to ensure the SUV remained true to the brand. It's laden with the top-shelf wood, leather, and metal, and it comes standard with an expansive panoramic glass roof. It also has intelligent features like electronic night vision and an optional responsive off-road system that can be configured to adapt to eight different settings. It's a different kind of Bentley, but it's a harbinger of things to come for the world's richest luxury makers. Other News & Notes Toyota debuts next-gen Prius Toyota revealed the next-generation of its iconic fuel-sipping hybrid, the 2016 Prius, at an event in Las Vegas. The car promises 10-percent gains in fuel efficiency, though actual figures – and even powertrain specifics – were not revealed. We estimate that could mean about 56 miles per gallon in city driving and 53 on the highway.

24 Hours of Le Mans live update part three

Sun, Jun 19 2016

We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and has an associates degree in dropping f-bombs. For Part One, click here. Part Two is here. Really hoped I'd be able to grab an hour or two of sleep before the sun rose over Le Mans. Dark dark dark, couldn't figure out what was going on. Commentators struggled at times as well. But I couldn't do it. Endurance racing is just too exciting. Grabs my attention with both fists. Screams, "watch these men DRIVE!" A neighbor invited me over for drinks. Told him, "Can't do it, gotta watch Le Mans!" Maybe not exactly. I'll admit, at times my attention wandered. I did a load of laundry. Ate some snacks. Half listened to the commentary. Threw a hump at my wife. I learned that Patrick Long, driving #88, is big brother to Kevin "Spanky" Long. Spanky's a bit of a legend in the skate world. Always weird how top notch talent can run in families like that. Kind of surprised I've never heard that before. Worked for a skate mag for a years, met Spanky a handful of times. Someone must've told me that he has an older brother who drives race cars. Dash cams at night are scary. High powered headlights in the P1s reach almost 300 meters. Cars outrun that distance easy. Seems like they're just steering into the black and hoping for the best. But that can't be the case. People'd be dropping dead let and right. Very amused by how the guys in GT are like, "Dude, stop flashing your fucking lights before you pass." But the LMP's are all, "Suck a dick! I do what I want." Top three stayed neck and neck nearly all night long. As the sun gets ready to creep back over the horizon the top three are separated by only eleven and a half seconds. Toyota 5 and 6, Porsche 2. Audi 8 is two laps behind Porsche, beleaguered 7 is dealing with constant trouble eleven laps from the front. GTE Pro sees Ferrari 82 in first, Ford 68 and 69 right behind. To win you've gotta drive perfect, build perfect. Fours cars retired so far. I'm beginning to appreciate the endurance aspect a little more fully. Only really considered the drivers at first. The mental and physical stress driving these cars at these speeds at length would inflict. But keeping the damn things running is the real deal. To win you've gotta drive perfect, build perfect.
