I bought this car from a Porsche Club of America member (30 Years!) in 2010 with 77,430k Miles and it now, almost 4 years later only has 79k miles! I drove it LESS than 2,000 miles since 2010.

As you can see, the car is exceptionally clean. The front bumper was repainted by Porsche (for $1700) to make them look brand new because there were small stone chips from the highway. That is the only paintwork that has ever been done on the car, guaranteed.

I have the original window sticker, two remote keys, and all of the books. The current mileage is 79k+. It had new front rotors and pads put in at 55K miles.

I recently put $3500 into replacing the control system for the convertible top, and the waterproofing system for it in January 2012 at Porsche of Sarasota because it leaked after going through a car wash.

I also put $2100 into replacing the OEM CD Player & Stereo System in March 2012 at The Collection Porsche in Miami because the LCD screen wouldn't work.

I also replaced the rear bumper in January 2012 at Porsche of Sarasota because someone scratched it in a parking lot. 

I obviously have spent far more on this car than I got out of the 2,000 miles I drove.  Someone is getting a ridiculous deal out of this sale!

OEM upgrades:

Upgraded Bose sound system
OEM Porsche windstop
OEM Porsche lockable car cover
OEM Upgraded Porsche floor mats
OEM Upgraded automatic climate control
OEM Upgraded Boxster S Wheels
OEM Upgraded Porsche Painted Center Caps

The car currently has $4000 wheels & tires on it. I also have the original OEM (Upgraded) Boxster "S" 18 inch wheels with the upgraded painted center caps, including 100% BRAND NEW Hankook tires pre-mounted on them. These wheels & tires are an additional $1800.00. The tires alone were $1156

You're getting an extra complete set of wheels and tires for FREE plus the $4000 19" aluminum wheels and tires with this sale...simply pay for the car and you get all of it. 

There is a small scratch on the driver's door and there is also a very small ding on the driver's door behind the door handle. One of the dashboard climate controls has the black color rubbing off, which happens with all Porsches built in the mid-2000's (All 3 that I've owned had this issue). I am not aware of any other defects.  The ding and scratch are clearly shown in the last 2 photos.

I am in Miami Beach, and the buyer will need to pick the car up here. If you pick the car up using a transport service, they will obviously have to also pick up the extra set of wheels and tires somehow for you, as I can't help you ship them.

THIS IS A RIDICULOUS DEAL, I JUST PUT $7000 INTO THIS CAR IN THE PAST YEAR, BUT MY LOSS WILL BE YOUR GAIN.  SADLY, I NEED AN SUV AND THIS VEHICLE ISN'T PRACTICAL FOR MY USE.

1950s car ads are timeless

Sat, Aug 8 2015

Usually around the Super Bowl a few great car commercials show up, but for the most part auto ads today pale in comparison to the '1950s and '60s. In an era with a truly viable magazine industry, automakers would take out gorgeous full-page spreads to get the word out about their wares. It was also a time when imports were just hitting the US, and there was a boom in sports cars. Car and Driver has gone for a dig into its advertising archives from when the book was known as Sports Cars Illustrated for a truly great viewing experience. You can imagine a young Don Draper mulling over the copy for these ads, but some of it is laughably quaint today. For example, there's a great image of a driver whipping an Austin-Healey 100 around a track. The italicized red text proudly proclaims, "From 0 to 60 MPH in 10.5 seconds." One of the beautiful parts about these advertisements is that you seldom see photos of the cars. Instead, there are often detailed drawings that slightly distort the vehicles' lines. With this approach, the Porsche 356 ends up looking far more curvaceous than in real life. Plus, the front end of the Chrysler 300 looks large enough to land a helicopter on. The whole thing is worth scrolling through. There are some fascinating glimpses into auto history like an ad for Abarth exhausts before the brand was just known for tuning Fiats.

Porsche planning something track-focused for Geneva [w/poll]

Thu, Feb 26 2015

At the 2015 Geneva Motor Show next month, Porsche has confirmed that it will be showcasing two potentially exciting new models: One is the new Cayman GT4 we've already seen, but we don't know what the other will be just yet. All the German automaker is saying at the moment is that, "the second new model is another exceptional Porsche that sets new standards on the racetrack" and that "this vehicle confirms the sports car manufacturer's commitment to high performance sports cars that manage a very special link between everyday driving and motorsports." Given those two statements, we can probably rule out a crossover or sedan at one end of the spectrum or a purely competition-spec racer at the other. The likelihood is, then, that Porsche's surprise for Geneva will be the new 911 GT3 RS. But then it could be the Boxster-based convertible counterpart to the Cayman GT4 (whether dubbed Boxster GT4, Boxster Spyder or something else), or even a track-tuned version of the 918 Spyder to take on the McLaren P1 GTR and Ferrari FXX K. We'll just have to sit tight to find out, but you're welcome to read the press release below and tell us what you think Zuffenhausen has in store for us at the Swiss expo this year. Double world premiere at the Geneva International Motor Show 2015 Porsche shows two new high-performance cars for the first time Stuttgart. Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG is celebrating the world premiere of two extreme sports cars at this year's Geneva International Motor Show. The new Cayman GT4 is the first high-performance sports car belonging to the GT family that is based on the mid-engine coupes. Clocking a lap time of seven minutes and 40 seconds on the North Loop of the Nurburgring, the new entry-level model makes a great debut. The second new model is another exceptional Porsche that sets new standards on the racetrack. The world premiere will take place during the Porsche press conference at the Palexpo Arena in Geneva at 11:30 (CET) on March 3, 2015. A live webcast will be available in German and English on: http://porsche.gomexlive.com/. This vehicle confirms the sports car manufacturer's commitment to high performance sports cars that manage to make a very special link between everyday driving and motorsports. These two premieres continue Porsche's tradition of presenting motorsport highlights at the spring car show on the shores of Lake Geneva. The 911 GT3, 918 Spyder and 919 Hybrid all celebrated their debuts in Geneva in recent years.

VW will reportedly offer cash to cheated diesel car drivers

Sun, Nov 8 2015

If you're feeling burned by Volkswagen's decision to cheat on diesel emissions tests, you might get some compensation for your troubles. Sources for The Truth About Cars understand that VW will launch a "TDI Goodwill Program" that compensates diesel car drivers with cash in the form of prepaid cards. In the US, you'd get both a $500 universal card as well as a VW-only card worth $500 to $750. The automaker isn't confirming details just yet, but it tells the New York Times that it's planning an announcement on Monday. Dealers also tell the newspaper that they're aware of a program in the works, although they don't know the specifics. It may not include the expanded range of cars reportedly tainted by the scandal, though, since VW is denying claims that it cheated with some models. This isn't the only olive branch VW has been offering: it's been handing out deals to existing owners willing to hop into new vehicles, and there are more discounts than usual across the board. However, the goodwill effort would represent the first instance of VW directly compensating drivers who'd previously thought they were getting an eco-friendly machine. This isn't going to make up for years of unnecessary pollution, but it may represent the company's best hope of holding on to customers.
