2001 Boxster Convertable
101k miles Seal Gray/Black top/Black leather interior Tiptronic transmission Located in Pineville, LA My dream car. . . I bought it 2 years ago from my best friend. Recently serviced; tires have less than 3,000 miles Everything works. EXTERIOR: A few minor dings from parking lot, nothing that a paintless dent removal facility could not address. Actually, the color hides these imperfections very well, and they are very minor. You would have to get very close to the car to see where a door has been opened on it. Also there is a minor scrape on the passenger front fender right on the lip. It looks like a shopping cart may have rubbed up against it. You have to get close to the car to see it. The damage is only to the paint, and did not penetrate the base coat. The clear coat is peeling off of the driver's rear view mirror. This is the only place on the car that the clear coat is failing. Don't know why its doing this, but its there. Paint is in overall excellent condition. I would rate the exterior a solid 8 or 8.5. I believe that the previous owner had the nose re-sprayed at some point. There are very few imperfections up front. INTERIOR: CD player and all internal controls function as intended. The AC works great. The roof and headliner are in very good condition and function properly. Both trunks are clean and all tools are present. The seats have minimal wear and there are no rips or tears. The dash shows as new. It does have the mysterious foam blowing through the vent issue occasionally. This does not affect any function of the vehicle, but if you are familiar with the 996/986 era, then you know what I am talking about. I would rate the interior a solid 8.5 or 9. SERVICE: Car has always been serviced in a timely fashion and any issues are promptly addressed. The car is spot on, and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I have records from my ownership, but very little from ownership prior to mine. I bought the car from my best friend in 2012 when it had 98k miles and only put 4k miles on it. The only repairs that I accomplished was replacing the infamous RMS. I am willing to take specific pictures and answer any questions asked by seriously interested parties. Feel free to ask questions. Thanks for looking. |

'Faster. Farther.' dives into the history of Porsche racing tech
Wed, 07 Aug 2013No doubt, Porsche has produced some of the best endurance racecars around, such as the turbocharged, slant-nose 935 of the 1970s and the ground-effects-enhanced 956 and 962 of the 1980s. But the company's most famous racecar, its first overall winner at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, was the 917.
The 917 embodied many of Porsche's technological achievements up to that point, such as the company's first 12- and 16-cylinder engines (the flat-16 was never used in competition), fiberglass bodies that implemented early aerodynamic practices and the use of new, exotic materials, such as magnesium and titanium.
The racecar was commissioned by the head of Porsche Motorsports, Ferdinand Piëch, to win overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970, after he realized a loophole in the rules that allowed cars to compete with engines up to five liters in the Sport category if they were also production models. Piëch saw opportunity: the top prototype class was restricted to three liters; the production minimum to compete in Sport was 25 cars. And so, with much effort, Porsche assembled 25 "production" 4.5-liter 917s and had them parked in a neat line for the race inspectors to verify their legitimacy. It didn't take long before people realized the new Porsches were much faster than the prototype racers, with a top speed approaching 250 miles per hour.
Porsche again staring down another $1.8B in hedge fund lawsuits
Wed, 15 May 2013The sequence of events from 2007 that began with Porsche's secret attempt to take over Volkswagen, and instead lead to Porsche being taken over by VW, continues to instigate lawsuits against the Stuttgart sports car manufacturer. A group of hedge funds that suffered over $1 billion in losses sued the car company in New York. Porsche had publicly stated it wasn't trying to buy VW, the hedge funds in question were shorting VW stock, and when Porsche's actual intentions were revealed, the stock shot up and the hedge funds took a beating.
The case was thrown out over the issue of jurisdiction, then appealed, only to see another suit filed on top of that. After that, most of the hedge funds withdrew their claims in New York and Porsche offered a 90-day window to refile in Germany where it is already fighting a number of other suits over the same issue. The hedge funds accepted the offer, refiling in Stuttgart for $1.8 billion in damages. According to Bloomberg, Porsche hasn't commented on the refiling, but as the same plaintiffs are involved, it's safe to assume that the carmaker still feels the case is "unsubstantiated and without merit." It has fared alright so far even in German courts, with two lesser cases against it thrown out last year.
Porsche announces four flavors of updated Cayenne [w/video]
Thu, 24 Jul 2014The new Macan may be getting all the attention lately, but Porsche hasn't forgotten about its larger crossover - the one that put it on the map in 2002 and on the road to profitability, with over half a million sold so far. So to keep the Cayenne at the top of its game, Porsche has announced several key upgrades for the 2015 model.
For starters, Porsche has updated the Cayenne's appearance with new front- and rear-end styling. The front bumper, fenders and hood are entirely new, with air fins flanking the nose to direct air into the intercoolers (each model now being artificially aspirated), and new bi-xenon headlamps and daytime running LEDs on every model but the Turbo, which goes all-LED. Around back there's also new taillights, tailgate handle, lower rear fascia and exhaust pipes. Meanwhile the interior has been upgraded with a 918-derived sport steering wheel and reformed rear seats with available ventilation.
The bigger news is under the engine bay, where Porsche is offering four choices. The base model is gone as the range starts with the Cayenne Diesel, followed by the Cayenne S, the new Cayenne S E-Hybrid and the top-of-the-line Cayenne Turbo. The Diesel model carries over the same 3.0-liter turbo diesel with 240 horsepower. The Cayenne S however packs a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 that's similar to the one found in the Macan Turbo and packs the same 406 lb-ft of torque but more power at 420 hp, 20 more than either its little brother or the model it replaces to reach 62 mph in 5.2 seconds.
