1961 Porsche 356 T5B with the Original CA Black Plates 

Up for Auction is a 1961 Porsche 356 T5B Coupe. I’ve had this car for a while and I am selling it because and for no other reason, is it’s not fast enough for me and I’m not driving it. I bought it from my neighbor who had it for close to 40 years and it sat outside the last 4 years before I got it. It took me 2 1/2 years to buy it. When I got it I took it to my mechanic and we cleaned out the gas tank, did a tuneup, adjusted the valves and changed the front brakes. This 356 has never been taken apart, still has it’s original color. This 356 has a solid floor pan but on the 4 edges of the pan has rust also under the battery, and the lower part of the doors. Look at all the photos below. This Porsche is mechanically sound, the 356 starts right up and every time and no smoking. The trans. shifts great but need the bushing under the gearshift cause it’s sloppy and not very tight. The body of this 356 is 97% solid and has never been in an accident. I had a lot of fun with this 356 while I had it but now it’s under the covers and I don’t drive it much anymore so I am putting it up for sale. This is a very honest 356 and thats the kind to get. This is a fun car to drive and a great one to restore cause the prices are going up on these 356 Porsche’s.

Volkswagen Group sales down 15% in pandemic year, but EV sales up 214%

Wed, Jan 13 2021

FRANKFURT, Germany — German automaker Volkswagen said its global sales fell 15.2% during 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic but showed significant recovery toward the end of the year. The company more than tripled its sales of battery-only vehicles. Global sales for all of Volkswagen's brands amounted to 9.3 million vehicles. The fourth quarter showed a smaller decline of 5.7% and within that quarter the month of December was still further improved, showing a shortfall of only 3.2% from the same period the year before. Volkswagen said Wednesday that sales fell the most in Western Europe, by 21.6%, while China, the company's largest single market, was down 9.1% Sales of battery-only cars jumped 214% to 231,600 from 73,700 across all the company's brands. The company's electric sales leaders included the Volkswagen ID.3 compact, with 56,500, the Audi E-Tron SUV with 47,300, and the high-end Porsche Taycan with 20,000. Volkswagen said that its sales fell by less than the overall market, meaning it had slightly expanded its market share. “The COVID-19 pandemic made 2020 an extremely challenging year,” said group sales chief Christian Dahlheim. “The Volkswagen Group performed well in this environment and strengthened its market position." Volkswagen Group's brands include Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche, SEAT, and Skoda as sell as truck makers MAN and Scania.

Production Porsche 918 Spyder images leak out of Chinese patent office

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

A few images of what looks to be the production Porsche 918 Spyder are here to say hello, courtesy of a patent office in China. If these provide an accurate look at what the hybrid supercar will look like, there are a few differences between it and the latest examples of the pre-production prototypes our spy shooters have seen.
The jerry-rigged turn signals inside the headlight enclosures and on the front fenders on the prototype are replaced with more polished units inside the headlamps located underneath the main beams. Behind that, the door handles have been swapped from horizontal latches on the door to vertical openings located just behind the door shutline.
We've also seen a Martini-liveried version of the 918 Spyder that has extra carbon elements that don't appear on this car. It was at the Nürburgring with carbon lips on the front fenders and another carbon element that hung from the rear fenders and ran down to the rear diffuser. When we saw the car on our Deep Dive piece, the front lips were gone but that rear piece remained, and we can't tell from the brochure and options sheet that we've seen so far what it comes with. The wheels from the concept and the green brake calipers, minus the polycarbonate covers, should be the standard fitment while the ten-spoke magnesium wheels will be a 29,750-euro (about $39,000 US) option.
