I have been asked by my Aunt to sell my late uncle's 911 convertible. He has loved and cared for this car for over 15 years. It is in great overall condition for its age but like all used cars this age is being sold as is where is how is. The cars odometer stopped working about 5 years ago according to carfax but to be fair the car has rarely been driven the last 3 years as he was fighting cancer and did not have the strength or ability to go far from the house. Based on previous carfax mileage and TX state inspections it looks like he drove it 3-5k a year at most. (he worked from home as well and this was a 4th car for a LONG time). So as a result of this the car is sold unknown miles which it is exempt anyway but just to be clear the odometer is not working currently.Now if I have not scared you off I drove the car a week ago about 25 miles and she was awesome. Ran great had good acceleration braked straight drove straight. There is not any rust that I could see not even bubbling as the car has been a Florida car and then a TX car all its life. The A/C worked and the power windows etc also were perfect. I have to say as the last 2-3 months he was in the hospital I expected the worst when I got there and had jumper cables etc and did not need them. She started right up and ran like a dream. The car is in great shape besides these issues I could see 1. the right rear bumper cap is broken. 2 under the bumper on the lower valence there was some paint missing but not rusted. I suspect that it is an aluminium piece. 3. the Shocks on the hood were weak so you have to hold it up.
The car was driven so there are some minor dings road chips etc BUT nothing that bad just dont want you to expect concourse and find a driver which is what this is a driver. The stereo was replaced with a much newer model that has blue tooth for audio and phone usage. It also has a cd player on it. The Tires are in great shape but their exact age is unknown by myself or my aunt. I know there is a way of decoding the DOT numbers but dont know how. There is extensive history in thr glove box of maintenance and I can point you in the way of the mechanics that did some of the work if needed. To our knowledge this car needs nothing to get in and drive. State inspection is good tags are good glass is good but again you are buying a nearly 30 year old car. The paint is in good overall shape but there is some obvious fade or discoloration from panel to panel, I suspect with a good detail you would be able to have it looking nearly perfect. I know I am being harsh on the car but I nor my Aunt want some one disappointed. I am not sure why the autocheck is not coming up.
I will be glad to respond to any questions on it but it may take me a day or so as I have to get some response from my Aunt etc. I am unable to get pictures easily as I am in Florida and my Aunt is in TX. I will say this if you get to the car and you decide nope not as described I will refund you your money and we will shake hands and be done with it. But having said that dont think that you can bid on it and then go see it and try to knock down on price it is nearly 30 years old dont expect perfection, the price says it is not perfect but is a nice car.

Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo returns in these spy shots
Thu, Feb 4 2016Way back in 2012, Porsche got enthusiasts all hot and bothered with the Panamera Sport Turismo at the Paris Motor Show. The concept imagined a hybrid wagon with a shapely rear end. Porsche said at the time production was "possible," but these spy shots indicate the vehicle is actually under development now. Take a close look through the gallery and you'll see that this test car sports some light camouflage at the back, but it does nothing to hide the new rump. Compared to the sedan, the longer roof looks to provide extra headroom for rear passengers, along with a few extra cubes of cargo space. The rear glass sits more upright, and a spoiler visually lengthens the five-door. The wagon's front end is identical to other recent spy shots of the future Panamera. We don't have any technical details about the wagon, but it would likely share powertrains with the sedan. The cabin layout would probably also be identical, including touch-capacitive controls to replace traditional buttons. A Panamera wagon makes sense in the Porsche range. The long-roof version would offer all of the sedan's performance but have a little more room. If a customer with a family doesn't want a Cayenne, this would be the obvious alternative, and the massive 911 range shows Porsche isn't afraid to build a bevy of model variants. If you think a Panamera station wagon seems odd, just remember people thought a Porsche SUV was weird, too. And, of course, that move turned into a huge success for the company. Related Video:
First-ever Porsche headed home to company museum
Wed, 29 Jan 2014About 30 years before Ferdinand Porsche designed the Volkswagen Beetle, he created the Egger-Lohner electric vehicle, C.2 Phaeton model - or simply, the P1 - you see above. This was the first vehicle created by Porsche, and the car gets its nickname from the fact that he had stamped "P1" on many of the parts marking it as the first Porsche... sorry, 356 No. 1.
Now while you'd think that such an important piece of Porsche heritage has been in a museum or even the automaker's not-so-secret lair, it has actually been sitting at a warehouse for the last 112 years. Thankfully, that's all about to change as Porsche has recovered P1, and the car will soon be on "permanent display" at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
The P1 has a 3 horsepower motor capable of delivering a top speed of 21 miles per hour and a driving range of 49 miles, and, like many vehicles in Porsche's history, the motor is positioned at the rear of the vehicle. According to the press release posted below, the P1 finished first in a 24-mile electric vehicle race in Berlin in 1899, but it has been sitting since 1902.
