Up for sale is 1 of approximately 100 in the world 1965 Porsche 356 SC in wonderful condition.

Offered for sale is this wonderful and rare 1965 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet. Only a handful of the 588 356 Cabriolets that were made were SC’s. This is a high quality example that retains it’s original engine and ALL MATCHING NUMBERS.. This example was completely restored in 2012 by a Porsche 356 expert. The restoration was performed to a very high standard and has had light use on beautiful days only on the Pacific Coast Highway.

This is a true investor grade example that can be enjoyed. This car runs and drives beautifully. This 356 is finished in classic colors, retains it’s correct driveline, and is a high quality example, that has been restored. This is one of the last SC Cabriolets ever made. It drives wonderfully and is in excellent overall condition. The only known issue is 2 scratches on the driver's side. I can provide pictures if requested. It is nothing that cannot be fixed.

I also have approximately 300 photos of the car throughout the entire restoration process. It is a magnificent story to watch and tell.

The car is matching numbers and I do possess a clear title in hand and the Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche. Not only that, this baby has heated seats. They can be easily removed for the absolute purest of Porsche enthusiasts, but I find them awesome cruising down PCH in the evening with the top in its customary down position.

I never sold a car on Ebay before and I will do what I can to answer your questions and to assist with shipping at your expense. Please dont ask ne too complicated of questions because I am not a mechanic. I just love these cars and enjoy driving them.

The vehicle is located in Sunny Laguna Beach California and can be seen here as well. The vehicle is sold "as is" with no warranties.

VIN 161281
Engine 1600cc (95 HP)

Certificate of authenticity with matching numbers, books, records and tools. Excellent condition and ready for you to enjoy.

Porsche Supercup racer dies in crash in Australia

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

Even with great strides made towards increasing the safety of motor racing, fundamentally it's still a dangerous sport. And now it has claimed another life.
That life belonged to one Sean Edwards, an accomplished GT racing driver. Edwards was killed at Queensland Raceway in Australia, riding shotgun in a Porsche 996 GT3 while acting as instructor. The driver was airlifted to hospital with critical injuries. Sean Edwards was 26.
The son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards (whose car he drove in the filming of Rush), Sean won the European GT3 Championship in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to repeat victories at the 24 Hours of Dubai as well as this year's Nürburgring 24 Hours. Edwards had been competing in the Porsche Supercup, whose standings he currently leads with just two rounds to go, and could be crowned champion posthumously.

Porsche to offer next-gen 911 GT3 with a manual

Mon, Nov 2 2015

Porsche may have offended some of the purists among its customer base when it rolled out the current 911 GT3 with only a dual-clutch transmission. But according to Car and Driver, the next GT3 will get a stick again. The development comes as the good folks at Zuffenhausen (and Weissach) attempt to balance the instant-shifting benefits of a DCT with the direct involvement of a conventional manual transmission. On the one hand, Porsche introduced a new seven-speed manual with the 991-generation model. On the other, it didn't offer that manual (or any manual for that matter) on the GT3 or even the more hardcore GT3 RS. In response to customer demand for a more back-to-basics approach, Porsche is preparing to introduce a new variant expected to be called the 911 R, with a manual, no turbos, and skinnier tires for a more linear driving experience. And the Cayman GT4 was launched only with a manual instead of a DCT. "The GT3 is full of systems that make sense on the track, but for the purist, there may be something lost," Porsche GT chief Andreas Preuninger told C/D. "It is our long-term goal to have the customer decide between the two approaches." In addition to the DCT, the current GT3 also features a four-wheel steering system. The shift (so to speak) back to a manual option in the next GT3 will undoubtedly come as a welcome development for those purists offended by the DCT-only option – to say nothing of Porsche's movement towards SUVs, diesels, and hybrids. That manual option may not, however, offer all seven forward cogs available in the stick-shift Carrera. One way or another, though, we don't doubt that most customers would still go for the dual-clutch option over the single on they can actuate themselves. Related Video:

Porsche goes karting in its Cayman GTS

Sun, 03 Aug 2014

Think Mini is the king of Go-Kart Handling[TM]? Well, you might be mistaken, as Porsche proves here it's fully capable of delivering a driving experience that'd fit in quite nicely on a go-kart track.
Using a new and very red Cayman GTS, the Stuttgart-based manufacturer invades a kart track in northern Italy and sets the mid-engined sports car loose to slip, slide and zip its way around the circuit. As far as videos for Sunday evening go, this one ticks all the boxes.
Take a look.
