DESCRIPTION: 2001 Porsche Boxster Coupe 986. NO RESERVE! Beautiful classic Porsche silver paint with black/dark blue/gray interior and soft top convertible roof. Spring is here and summer is right around the corner-time to put the top down! 5 speed manual transmission. 2.7 liter, 6 cylinders rear wheel drive. 87,XXX miles. Paint job is in great shape with no dents, dings, cracks, etc. Anti-lock braking system. Not an "S" but has sport option: 19 inch premium wheels with electric extendable/retractable spoiler, multi-colored Porsche logo on wheel caps and steering wheel, and Porsche emblem valve caps. Has "PORSCHE" Racing decal on top of windshield which can be easily removed if that's not your thing. This car is located in zip code 76155, Ft. Worth, TX. Comes complete with owner's manual and hardback service book. I will post more pictures this weekend once I get the car washed.

 

OPERATIONAL: This car runs beautifully! I put a lot of TLC and money into it. On March 30th I drove it from Orlando, FL to Dallas/Ft.Worth straight through (18 hours) without any problems. The car faired better than me! The transmission and clutch shift smoothly. Being a mid-engine car, it's surprisingly silent! It's also very spacious for a 2 seat coupe. Has both front and rear trunk space. Cruise control works flawlessly. All wiper functions operate normally. Gauges and instrument cluster fully operational. A/C blows cold. Power windows, door locks, side mirrors. All exterior and interior lights work. Roof does not leak. The roof raises and lowers fine except as the roof is lowering you have to help the roof into the track with your hand. This is a matter of doing it whilst in the car or out. It may need adjustment. The driver's side door/door jamb squeaks a little bit when going over bumps. I think it may need adjusting or lubrication. Has security system. Comes with remote key and Porsche FOB. You can lock/unlock the car, front trunk, and rear trunk remotely.

 

INTERIOR: Power steering, leather seats, dual and side airbags, telescoping steering wheel, usual wear and tear, brand new cup holders, JVC AM/FM/CD stereo deck with 1/8th input for your iPod, amplifier installed in front trunk. Carpets in great shape with the Porsche moniker.

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.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS revealed in patent photos

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

Porsche has been taking its time developing the most hardcore 911 models for the latest 991 chassis. While the GT3 has been on the market for a little while, it suffered from some teething issues. The 911 GT3 RS is certainly on the radar since being spotted testing, but it's always better to get a look at a new car without all of the camo to hide the coolest parts. Thankfully, Car in the UK has some patent photos of the RS ahead of its debut, and they show off one mean-looking 911.
The first thing that you notice about the RS is that Porsche clearly isn't afraid to rework the latest 911's shape for its track-focused version. Each piece is slightly resculpted to squeeze the most out of it. Up front, the air dam has the same shape to the earlier photos. They also both highlight the upcoming model's tiny air inlet at the tip of the hood, the massive intakes in the rear fenders and general design of the rear wing with a ducktail underneath. The bubbled roof is much clearer here, where it was disguised in spy shots. You can also spot the slashing fender gills behind the front wheels that are a completely new feature.
The GT3 RS is the ultimate naturally aspirated 911 for the street, but according to Car, Porsche aims to take that even farther with the latest model. If these are the looks, then it's working. Unfortunately, the new version's powerplant remains a mystery. Though, given all the changes to the bodywork, the engine is almost surely getting tweaked over the 475-horsepower GT3. The RS is rumored to hit the road and be screaming down the track in 2015.

2015 Porsche Macan Turbo

Mon, 06 Jan 2014

The misinformation first started back in May of 2007 - more than six years ago - when word came that Porsche was developing a compact utility vehicle to fill out its product line. Rumors swirled that the German automaker's future "Roxster" would be based on the then-upcoming Audi Q5. By September of 2010, the name had changed to "Cajun," but the vehicle was still expected to be "based heavily on the Audi Q5," said reports in the months that followed. One year later, the first test mules were spotted, the mechanics hidden beneath barely disguised Audi sheetmetal, which did nothing to give the upcoming model its own identity. And even after Porsche announced "Macan" as the vehicle's production name in early 2012, articles stated that it would "arrive on the same chassis as the Audi Q5, though with suspension, brake and engine tweaks suitable to the Porsche range."
It's no wonder that most still consider the all-new Porsche Macan nothing more than a heavily massaged Q5.
To help lift some of the mystery surrounding its latest release, Porsche hosted us in Germany for an in-depth look at its new crossover (while Europeans call it a "sport utility," its car platform allows us to call it a proper CUV). The technology workshop offered us insight to the design and mechanical execution, and it concluded with a short test ride. The trip was both enlightening and educational - and it left us with a whole new perspective on the Macan.
