Up for sale is my 1965  Porsche SC Coupe, vin 219059. Very solid car, new floors, longitudinals, closing panels and jack spurs along with battery box repair. Floors and metal work are well done. New bumper guards and windshield and back glass rubber and headlight stone guards and deco molding for body and below doors were also added. The car is painted Dolphin grey which is an original Porsche color and has new Aztec red leather interior along with German squareweave charcoal carpets. The driver side  hinge cover indicates that the car originally came painted color code #6405 which is Champagne Yellow.  New door rubber seals and mats and door sill plates with clean headliner complete the interior. No evidence of prior accident damage or collision. The hood is not kinked and the hood pull and engine lid pull and the gas filler door pull all work smoothly.  The paint is driver quality with some minor imperfections (please see link for over 190 photos), overall presentable. There are some slight bubbles on the bottom of the doors. Door bottoms are solid as can be seen by the pictures on the link. Doors and hood and engine lid all close well. The doors have a nice "thud" when they are closed.  The car is titled as a 1965 but actual production year fell in 1964. It was produced toward the end of the 1964 production run and hence by the time it reached the U.S. it became titled as a 1965.

Engine is an "SC" with big bore kit and Dellorto carbs, new muffler and new gaskets and seals.  All lights and turn signals and brake lights work. Battery charges as is evident by amp gauge in car, starts every time.  As soon as the key turns the ignition the engine roars to life with no delay. A 12 volt Optima battery provides dependable starting and power to the car.  Engine holds an idle and will idle smoothly. Excellent oil pressure the whole time the engine is running holding 35-40 lbs at idle and 50-65 lbs running down the road. Four wheel disc brakes stop the car on a dime and pull "straight", stopping the car evenly and quickly, if necessary.  At highway speeds the car tracks straight and does not pull to either side. Clutch is strong and synchros in all four forward gears shift smoothly as does reverse. The speedometer and odometer work as does the tachometer; the combination gauge is not hooked up since there is another gauge for oil pressure and the gas gauge is currently not working. Horn and windshield wipers work. Tires are near new and have plenty of tread. The engine in the car is identified as a "616/16" per the stamping on the case which makes it a 356 "SC" engine. We have ordered the COA from Porsche for the vehicle.  A complete engine rebuild was done in 2008 where the engine was removed and re-sealed and newly machined cylinder heads were installed with receipt in hand. New Koni shocks upgrade the suspension.

Tesla, Porsche and Genesis top Consumer Reports owner satisfaction survey

Fri, Dec 22 2017

Tesla swept Consumer Reports' latest Ownership Satisfaction Survey results, notching the top spot among brands evaluated. Its Model S also netted the No. 1 spot among the top 10 most-satisfying cars. Porsche and Genesis, Hyundai's new luxury spinoff, rounded out the top three brands. The bottom of the rankings was anchored by Acura, while Mercedes-Benz notched the least-satisfying car in the survey with the GLA, proving that the results weren't equally kind to all luxury brands. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, told USA Today those brands suffered by introducing cheaper vehicles. The scores, on a 100-point scale, reflect whether owners say the vehicles from model years 2015 through 2018 met their expectations and whether they would buy the same car again. They measure ratings in six categories: driving experience, comfort, value, styling, audio and climate systems (what, no cupholders?). Effectively, it gauges how much people liked the car they bought. Reliability is not considered. The Honda Ridgeline outscored competitors in the compact pickup segment by a wide margin, while the Ford F-350 was among the top 10-ranked vehicles in the survey, the first time in at least five years that a pickup made it into the top 10, Consumer Reports said. In the brand survey, Chrysler rose four places to No. 4 on strong customer satisfaction with the Pacifica minivan, while Hyundai tumbled 11 spots to No. 24 and Lexus fell eight places to 18th. Rounding out the top 10 most satisfying cars were the Porsche 911, Chevrolet Corvette, Lincoln Continental, Mazda MX-5 Miata, Toyota Prius, Tesla Model X SUV, Honda Odyssey minivan and Dodge Challenger. Not surprisingly, most of those cars, and indeed most of the high-ranking brands, are those with strong brand loyalty, fan-like followings and/or those that strike a strong emotional chord with buyers. The full brand rankings are below. Tesla (90) Porsche (85) Genesis (81) Chrysler (78) Audi (76) Mazda (76) Subaru (76) Toyota (76) Honda (75) Lincoln (75) Mini (73) Ram (73) Kia (72) Chevrolet (72) BMW (72) GMC (72) Ford (70) Lexus (70) Volvo (69) Dodge (68) Jeep (68) Mercedes-Benz (67) Volkswagen (67) Hyundai (67) Buick (66) Cadillac (64) Infiniti (60) Mitsubishi (58) Nissan (58) Acura (58) Related Video: Green Genesis Porsche Tesla Ownership satisfaction
