Tires new 7/13 @9K miles, about 70% life remaining
The original owner drove the car about 4-years before trading it into his local dealer. The second owner was a
long time Porsche enthusiast and asked the dealer (AutoKennel) to help him find a nice late model Porsche
convertible as he had recently retired and was moving from Southern California to Arizona. The dealer found this
car in June of 2013 with about 8,500 miles, and had it thoroughly inspected by a local Porsche shop before it was
purchased. The Porsche dealer reported it to be in excellent condition, so the second owner purchased the car, and
flew to Dallas, TX to pick it up and drove it to his new home in Phoenix, AZ. For the next 3-years, he enjoyed the
car and took it on several weekend trips. The second owner had recently moved back to Orange County California,
and found that he just wasn’t using the car, and didn’t have space to continue to keep it, so he asked the
dealer AutoKennel to list it for sale.
While the second owner owned the car, he installed the short shift kit, new Rennline pedal kit, hard wire Escort
radar detector kit, new battery, Michelin Pilot Sports tires (7/13 @9K miles), with 70% life remaining, oil
service, brake flush, and inspection (12K miles / 7/2014 at Porsche dealer). He had an oil service and inspection
in August 2016 at Hergesheimer motorsports and they found the car in excellent condition, and needing nothing. The
rear brakes are at 90% life left, and the front brakes at 70% life left.
The 997 S is in great condition. The paint is all original and verified with paint meter. It shines beautifully
and shows minimal signs of use. The wheels are in excellent condition with no rash and the tires have more than
half life remaining. All the glass is original as well. There are some minor nicks on the windshield, but no
cracks or significant chips. The soft-top is near perfect with no tears, rips, or signs of wear. The one-touch
function of the top works flawlessly. The front nose has clear bra installed when the car was new, and it shows
some slight discoloration. The interior is equally nice. The leather seats look great with hardly any wear, just
some minor wear on the driver seat exit bolster. Everything looks, feels, and smells fresh. All the buttons,
gauges, and other controls function properly and show no wear. All in all, it is clear that this example was
always garaged and used mostly for light weekend use.
The Porsche drives fantastically and is exactly as you would expect. It feels extremely tight and still new. The
clutch operates properly with no slipping and the car shifts very smoothly. The power and braking is spot on.
This example is ready for anything from daily use to weekend spirited open top driving.
This car has spent it’s entire life in the dry climates of Texas, Arizona, and Southern California. It has not
been driven in ice or snow and has no corrosion whatsoever.
The 911 comes with owner’s manual, factory toolkit, original window sticker, 2-keys, wheel lock, Porsche flat
repair kit, and windscreen.
I purchased the car in September 2016 from AutoKennel, and had the car shipped to Virginia in an enclosed carrier.
The car arrived clean and easily passed the Virginia State inspection. I had the car inspected and driven by local
sports car expert Jim at Tire America in Newport News, VA, and he indicated it was an extremely nice car. I
purchased the car with 21,887 miles, and put about a 1,000 miles on the car.

Which is quicker in the standing mile, a Subaru WRX STI or a Porsche Cayman?
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The 2015 Subaru WRX STI and 2014 Porsche Cayman are both saddled with unfair reputations. The STI with its huge wing and gold wheels has the title of the ultimate boy-racer. On the other hand, Porsche brand snobs look down on he base Cayman as just a wannabe 911. In reality, they are both pretty fantastic performance cars. But what would happen if the two of them lined up at a stoplight, and maybe the guy in the suit in the Cayman started throwing some revs at the young man in the STI? Automobile decided to find out in a recent video pitting the two stereotyped hot rods against each other in a standing-mile drag race.
In terms of raw numbers, they are surprisingly close. Both use flat engines and six-speed manual transmissions here, but the Subaru has more power and torque. However, the Porsche makes up for it with 300 pounds less weight. Neither should have a problem with traction either thanks to the STI's sophisticated all-wheel-drive setup, and the Cayman's mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout.
The comparable specs certainly show themselves in the real world for the race. We're not going to give away the winner here because it's too exciting, but let's just say the finish is very, very close. Scroll down to watch both of them shrug off their stereotypes and show off their real performance.
Porsche 911 celebrates 50 years of iconic motoring
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Back in 1963, Porsche debuted the very first 911 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. And over the last 50 years, that coupe has grown to become one of the most iconic sports cars of all time. That in mind, you could easily chalk up this 50th Anniversary model as just one of the many special edition 911s that have graced our roads over the years, but dig a bit deeper and you'll see that this one is far more than just some unique paint and different wheels.
For starters, the 911 50th Anniversary Edition utilizes the wider Carrera 4/4S body, but retains its standard rear-wheel-drive configuration. Power comes from the Carrera S' 3.8-liter flat-six engine, but features a Powerkit upgrade that includes the Sport Chrono package and ups overall output to 400 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes just 3.8 seconds if the car is fitted with Porsche's dual-clutch PDK gearbox, or 4.2 seconds if you choose the row-your-own seven-speed manual. Talk about going Over The Hill with a quickness.
Despite looking pretty tame, we're really hot on the appearance of this special 911, with its throwback flat gray paint job and new 20-inch wheels that look remarkably similar to the original Fuchs alloys of the 1963 model. Inside, you'll find green lettering on the instrument displays, white pointer needles and silver accents, and the leather seats have a fabric insert that's similar to the Pepita cloth from the original 911.
Porsche resurrects V8-powered 911 prototype from the Eighties
Wed, 14 May 2014These days, we take it for granted that the Porsche 911 uses a flat-six engine. That's because every version of the iconic rear-engined sports car has had one. Right? Well, for the most part. There was the 912 that joined the original in the late Sixties with a flat-four. And in the mid-Eighties, Porsche toyed around with the idea of a V8-powered 911.
After the first-generation 911 had been in production for over two decades, Porsche began development of its successor, the 964, in the 1980s. And one of its ideas was to use a V8 engine. So it took a 964, borrowed a V8 from Audi, gave it the rear bodywork from a 959 and dubbed it the 965.
The idea was to create a more affordable successor to the 959 that included its advanced all-wheel drive system and active suspension. The Audi V8 would have been replaced with one of Porsche's own design - possibly based on the it had built for Indy racing - but Dr. Ulrich Bez (who was then head of Porsche R&D long before taking the reins at Aston Martin) ultimately killed the project.
