1983 Porsche 911 on 2040-cars
Houston, Texas, United States
very clean 1983 911sc... runs and drive tight and smooth, this a clean driver that was highly opted which includes factory wing, sunroof front, chin spoiler, fog lights, h4 lights, factor ac (not working) and pleated leather seats. the porsche is all stock but the exhaust was upgraded to a ss system that sounds awesome. I bought this car for my wife because it was her dream car, not knowing she was not willing to learn to drive a manual. she didnt know the car only came manual. I have driven the porsche over 2500 miles in the last 6 months with no problems at all. I remove the ac because it didnt work and I was told the removal would add power, it did! not a lot but the car is so light every little bit help. I would not say its fast but it is fun to drive for sure. (my last porsche was 911 twin turbo, it was fast!) I hate to sell this car but she said she want a 997 with an auto trans. lol I looked long and hard to this car and was very happy with it. I purchased an additional deck lid because I prefer the no wing look, I have the original wing and its in great shape. I also have the ac complete. new parts include: fuel pump,fuel hose and clamps, fuel sending unit, all new oil lines, oil change, oil drain ring. work preformed on 5-03-16. miles 110,125 spark plugs. work preformed 2-03-016 ignition control unit and ignition coil 2-01-16 window switchs and v-belt 11-30-10 fuel accumulator, fuel filter, air regulartor, hood gas strut, preformed 8-06-09 shift ball socket, shift sleeve, shift coupler, plastic sleeve, preformed 8-06-09 with 109869 miles... miles on the car today is 110900 new Alpine blue tooth radio and new alpine speakers work preformed 6-10-16 THE GOODS: it a 1983 porsche 911sc the last year of the sc and the most powerful. it runs and drives so good! shifts great though all the gears like it should, I driven hundreds of 911 with the 915 trans and this is the best of all. the inside is good no rips or tears dash is good all controls work like they should all the gauges work even the clock the brake are good and stop like new recently had a tune up which includes NEW FUEL PUMP, PLUGS, MSD COIL, TIE RODS AND BATTERY. I have all the a/c parts and the factor rear wing. 915 Transmission shifts very smooth and tight THE BAD: not that much really the paint is super shinny and looks great going down the road, but some of the body work done before the paint is not great you can see sanding scratches in some places and the clear on the passenger side door is not smooth. maybe it could be buffed, I was going the paint the car so I didnt care. SO.... Im writing this and I walk out to my car to look to see if I overlooked anything and noticed the dash now has a crack in it and didnt yesturday sunroof is not working the motor works but the roof does not move.

2015 Porsche 911 GTS widens your rear-engined choices
Fri, Nov 21 2014"Porsche needs to offer more versions of the 911" is not a phrase you'll hear uttered often. Not with 15 versions already in the catalog. But with the opening of this year's LA Auto Show, Porsche has introduced four more to bring the total up to nineteen variants. And more are no doubt on the way. What you're looking at is the new Porsche 911 GTS, which has grown from one model in the previous generation to four. Buyers will be able to choose between rear- or all-wheel drive and between coupe and cabriolet body-styles, but either way they'll be looking at a 3.8-liter flat six with 430 horsepower. That slots it in between the base Carrera and the GT3, but unlike the hardcore latter, it can be had with choice of manual or dual-clutch transmission – bringing the available configurations of 911 GTS up to eight. Spec the DCT and you'll be reaching 60 in as little as 3.8 seconds, but the pleasure won't come cheap: prices range from $114,200 for the rear-drive coupe to $132,800 for the all-wheel-drive cabrio, plus another $995 for delivery. But for that much scratch you also get the Powerkit, Sport Chrono package, wider track, lower suspension, Xenon headlamps, Alcantara trim, 20-inch alloys and more all thrown in as standard.
U.S. tariff threat hits European automakers' stocks
Thu, May 24 2018FRANKFURT, Germany — A U.S. warning that it may introduce tariffs on foreign auto imports hit shares in German carmakers BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen on Thursday, which together have a more than 90 percent share of North America's premium car market. Washington said on Wednesday it had launched an investigation into whether car and truck imports are a national security issue due to signs they had damaged the U.S. auto industry. That could lead to new U.S. tariffs — up to 25 percent — similar to those imposed on imported steel and aluminum in March. BMW and Daimler shares fell as much as 3.1 percent in early Thursday trading, while Volkswagen's dropped as much as 2.5 percent. "(U.S. President) Donald Trump is obviously not thinking about how to prevent a trade war. Import duties on cars would be a nightmare for the German auto industry and would lead to a massive sales impact," said Thomas Altmann at Frankfurt-based asset manager QC Partners. BMW on Thursday condemned the move to consider tariffs. "The BMW Group is committed to free trade worldwide. Barrier-free access to markets is therefore a key factor not only for our business model, but also for growth welfare and employment throughout the global economy," it said. Daimler, which makes Mercedes-Benz cars, and Volkswagen, which makes upmarket Audis and Porsches, were not immediately available for comment. German carmakers produced 804,000 cars at local factories in the United States and exported 657,000 German-made cars into North America last year, according to German auto industry association VDA. China took pains on Thursday to welcome German firms and investments, with Premier Li Keqiang talking up relations after a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. BMW and Mercedes have expanded production capacity in the United States, but BMW, Audi, Volkswagen and Daimler have also invested billions to build new factories in Mexico in the hope of selling locally produced cars into the United States. German carmakers hiked vehicle production in Mexico by 46 percent to 620,000 cars last year, while production levels inside the United States fell by 6 percent to 804,000 cars because of a shift to Mexico, according to the VDA. BMW has its biggest factory worldwide in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and is the largest vehicle exporter among all the carmakers in the United States measured by value of goods exported. More than 70 percent of BMW's U.S.-made cars are exported.
Are you the next Porsche 911 GT3 RS or GT2?
Thu, 17 Apr 2014Porsche typically keeps to a suitably fast schedule when it comes to rolling out increasingly hard-core performance versions of the 911. After the 997 Carrera debuted in 2004, the GT3 version followed in 2006, and by the end of the 2007, Porsche had rolled out both the GT3 RS and GT2 versions. Then the facelifted 997.5 came out in 2008 and it was back to the start: the GT3 came in 2009, the GT3 RS and GT2 RS in 2010, and the GT3 RS 4.0 in 2011. But things have slowed down some with the latest 991 generation.
The new Carrera came in 2011 and the GT3 followed in 2012. By recent history's example, we should have at least two more hardcore models by now, but we don't. Maybe the engineers in Zuffenhausen have had their hands full fixing the spontaneous-combustion issues with the existing GT3, or maybe their attentions have been focused elsewhere altogether. But if these spy shots are anything to go by, it seems like they're back on the job.
Now we don't know if this prototype foreshadows a new GT3 RS or a GT2, but it sure looks more hard-core than the existing GT3 that many purists have derided as too soft, what with its automatic transmission and four-wheel steering.
