This 1962 Porsche 356B S90 is a numbers matching vehicle that has recently been inspected and verified by European Collectibles in Costa Mesa, CA.  Through the years minor things have been replaced (carpet, radio and some hardware) but the most unique piece of information on this car is that it has a Porsche Factory replacement chassis (5 digit vin 13224 instead of 6).  Sometime in the 60's the car had been in an accident and Porsche Germany took all of the components and put them on a new body/chassis.  This car has no rust, is a straight clean body/chassis, original engine & trans and is simply in need of restoration.  The car runs & drives well as is.


We are a private collection of vehicles located in Burbank, CA. and can assist in setting up transportation for buyer but all costs will be the responsibility of the buyer not seller.  Winning bidder will be required to make deposit of $1,000 within 48 hours of close of auction and final payment made within 5 days.   

The collector I work for buys and rarely sells so this is our first auction.  If having no selling history on e-bay makes you uncomfortable please contact me at shawn@autotopiala.com and we can resolve any concerns you may have.

Porsche 918 Spyder goes ice drifting in Finland

Fri, Feb 13 2015

Along with the Ferrari Laferrari and McLaren P1, the Porsche 918 Spyder is one of the trio of hybrid supercars potentially defining the path for these rarified vehicles going forward. When thinking about high-performance machines like this, the mind usually goes to precise driving around a circuit or maybe along a beautifully undulating road... not so much in the snow. Still, this group has more than enough power to make it through a little bit of powder, and the 918 proves that at the Porsche Driving Experience winter camp in Finland. Although, the set of studded snow tires certainly helps. Even with the trick all-wheel drive system in the Porsche combining a mid-mounted V8 and electric motors, this 918 has absolutely no problem lighting up the rear end in the snow and ice. Even at relatively low speeds, just a blip of the throttle is all it takes for the back tires to step out. However, the handling still looks quite controllable. It's hard to grin as this rare supercar does the Scandinavian Flick to set up a perfect drift between the snow banks.

How the 2016 Porsche 911 Carrera S falls short of perfection

Tue, Mar 15 2016

We know Harry Metcalfe loves a good Porsche 911. After all, he's shown off his personal 1989 Porsche 911 Turbo and 993 GT2 replica in previous videos. However, he can't seem to muster so much passion for the forced induction engine in the 2016 911 Carrera S. The chassis impresses him, but in Metcalfe's latest clip, he explains why he's not a huge fan of the new powerplant. Before any actual driving, Metcalfe takes a thorough walk around the new car where he goes to the unusual trouble of using a magnet to show which parts are steel and which are aluminum. Remember, though, this is a 911. So, this latest refreshed model, just like all previous remodels, isn't all that aesthetically different from the previous version. So, Metcalfe's real focus here is on how it drives. He comes away with mixed impressions. Metcalfe loves the 2016 911's handling, especially the directness from the rear-wheel steering, but he isn't in love with the new engine. At least with the seven-speed manual, he complains of turbo lag below 3,000 rpm. He also misses the direct throttle response from the previous naturally aspirated unit and doesn't think the turbocharged mill's fuel economy is very impressive. Take a ride with Metcalfe to get the full experience and intriguing take about the biggest change in more than a decade for the iconic 911.
