Cobalt Bleu 1982, 928 Porshe Coupe on 2040-cars
Yonkers, New York, United States
|
I purchased the car in June 2012 from a professional car restorer who had originally bought the car for his wife who never liked the color to begin with and ended up buying another Porsche to restore for his wife in Gold color and put the blue one on Ebay.
The car was shipped to me by a careless driver that ended up cracking the gas tank at delivery, unfortunately for me I did notice the fact one week later as I saw the minor signs of a leak under the gas tank. I emptied the tank and kept it uncap to dry it to have it repaired since the leak was minor and decide to purchase a second used tank in great condition to be on the safe side. My intention was to complete the restoration work and enjoy the car for the East Cost sunny week ends....time went by before and before I had the time to even think about it, winter sets in, the car has been under a double layer of thick tarp to prevent any unnecessary body damages since then. I came to the conclusion that I will not have the time to continue the work done by the previous owner that you can also contact to confirm the following description. The car runs great with all electrical power functioning, the transmission will need to be serviced as well as the engine with new oil has the car has been seating covered on my driveway since June 2012. With car cam a brand new power steering line, new front brake pads, new KN filter, new fuel filter that will need to be installed replacing the old existing one, the actual power steering line has a small leak. I purchased - new hood insulation pad, a used gas tank in great condition in the event that the minor leak cannot be fixed, all new belts ( timing belt-air pump belt-power steering belt- alternator belt-A/C belt) - odometer switch reset - sun roof motor as I was not sure if either the fuse or the relay was not working - sun roof switch - dash board cluster switch knobs - right side mirror as the original was damaged by the careless delivery driver - dash board protective pad - brand new 5 years warranty battery - a second set of german Porsche wheels "phone dial type" with Pirelli P6000 with 7.1x15 for the rear and 6Jx15 for the front in nearly new condition that I will sell separately for $400.00 and not part of this auction The car need a new home with a dedicated person that will finish what the previous owner started, it will not take too much to get this car in a beautiful condition. |

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.
Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
Jay Leno puts carbon fiber wheels to the test on a Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Thu, 04 Sep 2014Jay Leno's Garage usually focuses on looking at cars new and old, speaking to their owners and then Jay taking a drive to see what he thinks. However, Leno throws his usual shtick to the curb this week to do a full product test of the carbon fiber wheels from a company called Carbon Revolution. If you're not interested in hearing about wheels for 18 minutes, don't worry. They get mounted on a Porsche and are tested back-to-back with stock wheels, and Leno takes the 911 for a track test, too.
While carbon-fiber wheels aren't exactly a new idea, Carbon Revolution's goal is to create a lightweight, one-piece product that can be mass produced. The company even claims that it already has a deal with an OEM automaker to offer them on a vehicle in a few years. The key to the technology is that it doesn't need an expensive autoclave to be made.
In the meantime, the company's carbon fiber wheels are available as an aftermarket option for about $15,000 a set, according to the video. They weigh in at about 15.5 pounds each and offer OEM-levels of stiffness, so they could cut some unsprung mass off of a performance car. Watch here as Jay and his mechanic Bernard lap Willow Springs and give their feedback about what they think of this cutting-edge technology.
