Words barely give justice to the condition of my car. The photos bring you closer. However, this car really needs to be scene in person to realize it's condition and experience the love it's been given. Unfortunately, unless you are in North Carolina that's hard to do. I'll do my best to describe this car, and if you are a serious buyer, you will obviously want to call me. The turbo was a car that I had a chance to drive when it was new. It left an impression that I never forgot. Years later, I began my search to find the perfect pre-owned turbo. It took me over a year to find this car. I'm beyond compulsive about my cars, and that created the challenge to find this particular car. It was purchased new by one of Chicago's wealthiest families. It was then purchased with 11,692 miles on 3//22/1010 buy an owner that's as fanatical as me. I purchased it 6/28/2012 with 13,993 miles. It currently has 17,376 miles. The ownership and mileage history verifies that this car has only been taken out for special events. What's more impressive than the mileage and ownership history is the service history. The car has always been maintained to the fullest. A 30,000 mileage service was performed on 3/25/11 with 12,047 mileage on the odometer. This included plugs and coil packs, etc. I have all records since day one including the original purchase paper work. The one thing that I do not have is the original window sticker. Black is my favorite color and that ruled out several low mileage turbos because of less than perfect paint. The paint on the car is perfect. There are no webbings or blemishes on it. I can verify that neither I nor the previous owner has never taken it through a car wash. I personally, am the only one that details the car. I use Zymol wax, P21s wheel cleaner, Lexol leather food, and Rain-X for the glass. I've never applied Armor-all type products to any exterior or interior surface. 12/3/13, (17,179 miles)  I had new Hankook tires installed, nitrogen filled, with a complete alignment. The car is always garage kept, on a car lift, and is covered. The color combination takes your breath away. It's rare to find a perfectly kept black car. The Savannah Leather really sets it off. The Seal grey and Silver cars are so common and somehow create less of a visual impact. I know that there are two camps out there on the transmission. I obviously love the Tip. The power is linear, it's easy to drive in traffic, and it will hold a gear in a turn. My personal driving style is NOT spirited. I think it's condition speaks for itself, but this car has never been tracked or abused. Because I'm looking for a very fanatical buyer I want to fully disclose everything about the car. There is a small nick by the ignition key that has been touched up. I have a photo of that. There is a "spot" not a dent or ding on the driver's side rear wheel well. You would not see it, if I didn't point it out, and even then you have to strain your eye. I took a macro photo of it as well. On the macro photo you will notice some pollen on the paint. I live in NC and we have a lot of it this time of year. You can see the pollen grains on the paint. The third thing is that that spoiler does not operate at speed. I rarely drive the car over 75mph and decided not replace the hydraulic rams. These three items are the only thing that I know to be less than 100%. The items would not have been noticed, but I don't want to hide anything. This is a very rare, immaculate car. The only reason that I'm selling the car is because it so nice. I can't take it out to enjoy it, because I don't want anything to happen to it. I'm hoping to find someone that will realize what this car has to offer and enjoy "looking" at it as I have. The car also comes with a factory Porsche car cover and a battery tender. You really have to drive and see this car!!

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.

Singer 911 gorgeousness explored and experienced by Chris Harris

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

Few things get us as cranked up as a Porsche 911. Generation after generation, this rear-engined oddity has exhilarated our senses, and the new 991 is the most capable iteration yet. Even so, there's a lot to be said for the older models, from their lighter weights and more modest dimensions to their air-cooled thrums.
That elemental vintage Porsche appeal hasn't been lost on Los Angeles-based Singer Vehicle Design, which has endeavored to take the best bits from every generation of 911 and combine them into one impossibly sexy rear-engined machine. Based on a 964 donor car, we knew that a lot of work would need to go into everything from the structure to the bodywork to realize the Singer's cohesive aesthetic and dynamic vision, but we didn't know just how much until we watched this Drive video featuring Chris Harris. The auto journo gets time with the 350-horsepower, Cosworth-motivated coupe on both mountain passes and at the track, but what could be the most interesting thing about the 27-minute-long video is his in-depth plant tour.
Check it out by scrolling below, but not before paging through our new Singer 911 gallery.

Porsche 911 GT3 wows the crowds in Geneva

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Porsche has a long and storied history of taking its range-topping 911 sportscar racing, with an enviable record of achievements in tow. The latest machine with which the automaker will take to the track can be seen above: the fifth-generation 2014 911 GT3.
With 475 horsepower strumming through the 3.8-liter six-cylinder boxer engine, this is the pinnacle of naturally aspirated performance from Porsche. It can go from 0 to 60 in just 3.3 seconds, hit a top speed of 195 miles per hour and has lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in less than seven and a half minutes.
A dual-clutch PDK transmission (no standard manual gearbox will be offered) with shorter gearing than lesser 911 models sends power to the rear wheels. Providing forward motion isn't the only thing those rear wheels will be doing - Porsche says the 2014 911 GT3 is fitted with the manufacturer's first active rear-wheel steering.
