   Up for sale is a 1976 Euro Porsche Turbo Carrera .   This is the first official production year for the turbocharged 911, and is the most sought after.   This is a project car, and will need a restoration but it is a very complete, solid running early 3.0 non intercooled turbo.  This is the real deal. 
   The car has not been on the road in several years now.  It does still run, and drive but will need an engine overhaul due to several broken head studs.  This is how we acquired the car.  It starts fairly easily, has normal oil pressure, normal amount of smoke at startup, and no unusual noises. I have not driven it in years, but I remember it running fairly strong, and pulling hard under boost.   The transmission engages all gears. but I remember it needing some synchro work going into 3rd.   The body is 99%  rust free,  there is a small spot on the drivers door sill, a very small bubble by the lower left windshield area, and a small bubble on one of the doors, other than that, very clean. See pictures. The paint shows well, but needs some attention .There is some shrinkage in a few areas, this is also shown in the pictures.   The interior is complete and decent, but shows wear as you would expect on a 38 year old car .
  The car still retains its original drivetrain, and is sitting on its original 15x8 & 15X7 fuchs wheels, which are n nice shape. The tires are very old, and need replaced.  It still retains its original aluminum calipers .
  There is minor body damage to the rear reflector, and the panel behind it, again , very minor. The one euro bumperette is broken off, but included (needs stud repair) .   This car has the super rare and desire able euro back up light, and bumper trim with reflectors in it. The window trim is the brushed metal finish, which I believe is the rarest, and very nice looking on this car.   All the glass is original , and in good shape.
  The only missing/incorrect items that I know of are :  The car has a tea tray turbo tail of the later cars, and not the correct early turbo tail, and the original plastic air cleaner housing is missing. I will include a metal air cleaner housing from a later turbo.
  This is a rare chance to own one of the most sought after Porsche cars out there right now.  The first official production year for the 911 turbo, and icon.   There were less than  600 of these cars produced, and who knows how many are left.

Recharge Wrap-up: 2015 Fuel Economy Guide available, how Porsche ships 919 Hybrid

Fri, Nov 7 2014

The EPA and Department of Energy have released the 2015 Fuel Economy Guide. Unsurprisingly, the groups say that this year features more fuel efficient and low-emissions vehicles than previous years, and they span a greater variety of vehicle types. The guide also provides "best-in-class" lists, greenhouse gas ratings and estimated fuel costs for each vehicle. The EPA and DOE hope that car buyers will use the guide to help choose cars that are better for the environment and the climate. Check out the guide for yourself or read more in the press release below. To get from one WEC race to the next, Porsche ships its 919 Hybrid LMP1 cars by air. As the team travels around the world - from continent to continent - it must take 35 tons worth of cargo with it, including two LMP1 cars. That means draining fluids, partially dismantling the cars, and fitting everything into a 747. The team also ships items by sea, which requires shipping extra sets of items due to the longer shipping times. "It's all about efficiency," according to Porsche. Read more in the press release below. Terra Motors is unveiling the A4000i electric scooter, which it will sell in Europe, at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan. The A4000i, which features smartphone connectivity, will be the company's European flagship model. Terra Motors will begin selling in Italy, and plans to make arrangements to sell in several more countries shortly after. Terra hopes to set up manufacturing in Europe, as well. Also on display at EICMA is the company's Bizmo II electric scooter, which has a driving range of 93 miles on a single charge. Read more in the press release below. Volkswagen is providing a 2015 e-Golf to Stanford University for research. The car will be used to study electric mobility, improvements in the driving experience and people's driving behavior and attitudes toward EVs. "Volkswagen's longstanding relationship with Stanford has allowed us to push the boundaries of automotive research and innovation," says Volkswagen's Ewald Goessmann, "and we look forward to extending our work together to drive advances in electric vehicles."

2015 Porsche Cayenne spotted with facelift

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Although it's only been a few years since the current Porsche Cayenne was introduced, Porsche seems to be working on a midcycle update for its big SUV possibly in time to welcome the smaller Macan. As seen in these recent spy shots, it looks like the Cayenne will be getting a minor face- and butt-lift, but it's hard to say what other changes are in store or when the updated model will hit showrooms.
Up front, expect the Cayenne's new face to resemble what was just revealed on the 2014 Panamera, and we could also see this SUV using some of the new engines introduced on the Panamera including the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 or maybe even the E-Hybrid model. We're guessing that the new Cayenne could debut sometime next year likely for the 2015 model year. In the meantime, check out the gallery of spy shots above.

Woman rushing to pub nearly causes head-on collision

Wed, Aug 17 2016

A woman in a rush to pick up her husband from a local pub caused this close call on a street in England this weekend. The near miss happened on Sunday on the B1253 between Rudston and Bridlington, East Yorkshire, England. A Porsche Cayenne driver attempted to overtake a blue Citroen on a blind curve but didn't see the white Skoda in oncoming traffic. Thanks to the Skoda driver's quick maneuvering on to the grassy shoulder the Cayenne only caused minor damage to the other two cars. Damian Hodgson is the owner of the dashboard camera who was behind the blue Citroen. After the close call Hodgson first stopped to check on the Skoda driver. Driver and car were okay, but a 10-year-old girl in the front seat was in tears. Hodgson then made his way down the road where the Porsche driver was speaking to the Citroen driver. He said the Porsche's driver gave some pretty lame reasons for putting so many people's lives in danger. "She said she was picking her husband up from the pub and was wearing a pair of slippers - but it's no excuse to be overtaking on a blind bend," Hodgson told the Mirror. "She did tell me she always overtakes at that spot though." Hodgson picked up the dashcam after a crash while on vacation in Florida last month. He offered the footage to both the drivers of the Skoda and the Citroen, but both declined. Hodgson told the Mirror that he hopes some good comes from the incident. "If anything comes of this, it is hopefully that the lady Porsche driver has learned a lesson and she will not put others in danger again."
