If you are looking for the nicest 1997 Porsche Boxster in the world this is it. Simply stunning color combination. Grand Prix White over Boxster Red FULL leather interior which includes the seats, dash and the insides of the doors. This car is HANDS DOWN the most IMPECCABLE Porsche you will find in the marketplace. This is a REAL NATIONAL CONCOURSE CHAMPION SEVERAL TIMES OVER!!!!! I have been collecting cars for over 25 years and have owned every High end sports, exotic and luxury car there is. I purchased this car only 2 months ago from the Porsche Club of America Regional Technical Chairman and thought I was ready for a new toy. I have only put 15 miles on the car since owning it and can tell you this is the quickest, tightest, best handling, best sounding and GORGEOUS car you will ever find for less than $20,000. Let alone the fact that anyone who walks up to it will mistake it for a new car. Being a father of 3 kids under the age of 5 I am a nervous wreck having it in the garage. I honestly thought that no one in the world was as OCD as I was about cars but trust me the previous owner is. This was his baby for the last 16 years and he was sick to his stomach selling it to me and now I feel even worse having to sell it to someone else. I can go on and on about how nice this car is but I would rather you refer to me feedback. The last sale was my 2007 Lexus LS460 with 18,000 miles on it. Those of you who truly understand what CONCOURSE QUALITY means will know and appreciate this car. I would prefer to sell it to someone who will truly care for it as the previous owner and myself have. The following paragraph below is the ad from the original owner on EBAY just 2 month ago. He is the most knowledgeable Porsche guy I have ever met and trust me I know many. His description is true and accurate and the car in person is nicer than the ad states. Please excuse my photos they are not the best because they are in the garage. You know the old saying "YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED". That truly is an understatement when it comes to this car. Please read the following description carefully. Please feel free to email me via eBay and I will gladly answer your questions. I will also happily text you specific photos if you include your phone number. All I ask is that you don't waste my time. This is NOT a BASE Boxster. This car has been tastefully modified and is way over built. If you think this is a fire sale it is not. If you want to insult me with a low ball offer I will not return your email. My asking price is very fair when you consider the miles, the condition and the added equipment to this car which would cost $ 20,000 without the car. I have been around cars since I was 3 and have sold thousands of cars throughout my career. If you treat me with respect you will get the same in return, it is really that simple. There is simply NOT ANOTHER CAR LIKE this in the world. 1997 Porsche Boxster, 8754 Miles. Perfect in every way. Grand Prix White with Boxster Red Full Leather Interior, Sport Package, TPC Supercharger making 5-6 lbs of boost. Approximately 275 HP at the rear wheels. 5-Speed Manual Transmission, H&R Full Coil-Over Suspension, B&B Polished Stainless Exhaust, 18" Porsche Sport Classic II Wheels with Michelins, Drilled Rotors, Pagid Orange Pads, Stainless Steel Brake Lines, Custom Built Rear Chassis Brace, Porsche Short Shifter with new style Porsche Shift Lever, Boost and AF Ratio Gauges.

This car was built for show only. Never beaten in any Porsche car show it was ever entered in. Fully detailed undercarriage, engine/transmission and suspension. Never driven in rain, never tracked and never damaged in any way. The car is simply stunning. Even the holes in the drilled rotors were painted black inside. All modifications work perfectly together and is fully emission compliant.

Simply put, this is THE nicest first year Boxster in the world...period.

Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.

Watch the incredibly complicated operation of Porsche's new targa roof

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Despite Porsche having claimed the name, targa tops are nothing new. In addition to the semi-roofless version of the 911, plenty of cars in the past have used removable roof panels - the new Corvette Stingray has one (as have prior generations), and this type of open-air experience has been available on past vehicles like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Honda Civic del Sol.
But when Porsche took the top off its brand new 911 Targa here at the Detroit Auto Show, it was indeed cause for pause. Simply put, this is one of the most complicated and intricate electronic roof panel removal techniques we've ever seen, save perhaps, for the setup found on the Japanese-market Civic del Sol from the 1990s.
We won't spoil the video for you, but basically, rather than just the roof panel coming off, the entire rear glass area lifts away the body in order for the small section over the passenger compartment to slide back. This has to be incredibly expensive to repair once it inevitably breaks. And we highly doubt you'll be able to operate this mechanism at any speed.

Porsche 911 RSR stops just long enough to have its photo taken

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

When it comes to Porsche and its rapidly escalating endurance racing program, all eyes may be on the new 919 Hybrid - and with good reason: that's the vehicle with which Porsche will be challenging the likes of Audi and Toyota for wins in the top-tier LMP1 class of the FIA World Endurance Championship and at Le Mans. But it's the 911 RSR that does and will continue to form the backbone of the factory's effort.
The 470-horsepower racing version of the road-going 911 took a one-two finish in its class at Le Mans last year, and also won its class at the Daytona 24 this past January as well. This year Porsche will field two of them in the WEC, another two in the United SportsCar Championship here in the US and will sell countless more to customer racing teams that will undoubtedly continue to rack up trophies in racing series around the world. This, then, might be a unique chance to see one standing still. Check it out in our gallery of live images above from the Geneva Motor Show.
