This is a well taken care of and well maintained 930 Turbo. I have owned this car for 33 years and I am the second owner. I purchased it from my business bank who repossessed the car. I was told from the Vice President of the bank that the car was purchased for the 1979 Cannonball Run and the owner made it from New York to Redondo Beach in 37 hours? I am not sure if thats fast or not, but it sound fast. Alway garaged and seen rain maybe 3 times. The motor has had Porsche recommend timing chain and adjuster upgrades also with cylinder head stud upgrades. This 3.3 intercooled turbo motor came with an adjustable waste gate, stainless steel headers and H-1 headlights from the original owner. I should say that this car is stupid fast and is not a kids car. Hit third gear and wave to everybody "Bye Bye". This car was designed for Groupe "B" racing. Most hoses have been replaced because of age. Just had all the brake calipers honed and rebuilt with new stainless steel braided brake lines. It stops so hard your eye balls will pop out of their sockets. Has new Bilstiens all around. Tires are newer Bridgestones Potenza all around. Clutch and throw out was replaced about 2,000 miles ago. Everything works. But the clock has issues. It works but doesn't keep accurate time and the A/C would work if it had the old R-12 Freon in it. Still has the original non-barrier hoses and weeps out all the refrigerant. This is a great car for the money. You'll be hard pressed to find another 930 in this great condition for any price. California buyers need to call or E-mail first before purchasing. Because of the headers their could be issues passing smog. I will show you how I have done it for 33 years, its easy. Call 626-484-7199 or E-mail rogergranger1@aol.com Will cooperate with your shipper and can hold for up to 30 days. But must be paid for in full.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS looks wicked, this way comes

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Those who didn't think Porsche went extreme enough with the latest 911 GT3 likely won't be disappointed when the more focused GT3 RS arrives. And as you can see from these latest spy shots, it looks like it's speeding right around the corner. Tipped to debut at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS is shaping up to be an enthusiast's dream - and with the prospect of a GT2 in doubt, could be the most hardcore Elfen in the range. Instead of the 3.8-liter flat-six in the current GT3, the new RS will pick up where the previous limited-edition GT3 RS 4.0 left off, with four naturally aspirated liters of unadulterated boxer power channeling a good 520 horses to the rear wheels. That will be a significant increase over the existing 475-hp GT3 and will match the 911 Turbo for output (if not the 560-hp Turbo S) and without any turbo lag to slow down the action, either. Whether it will keep the GT3's dual-clutch gearbox and four-wheel steering system, or ditch one or both for a more analog approach, remains to be seen, but we're holding out hope. Either way, the modifications to the bodywork ought to make the GT3 RS stand out even further and stay glued to the race track it will call home. Notice the deep front splitter scooping up snowflakes like a shovel, a massive rear wing (which may or may not be the final production version), the Turbo-spec rear end with air intakes ahead of the rear wheels, and a set of awesome-looking gills over the front wheels – all of which you can scope out in the gallery full of spy shots above.

Porsche reportedly working on new turbocharged flat-four boxer engine?

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

These days, we've seen just about every automaker dropping cylinders in an effort to appease tightening fuel economy and emission standards - and Porsche is no exception. Nearly three years after introducing an all-new V6 powerplant under the front hood of its Panamera sedan (launched with a range of V8 engines) comes word that Porsche is working on an all-new turbocharged flat-four boxer to replace the flat-six engines mid-mounted in its Cayman and Boxster models.
Specifics have yet to be learned, but reports say the engine is a derivative of the current 3.8-liter six (shown above) found under the rear decklid of the Carrera S, yet with two fewer cylinders. Fitted with a turbocharger, direct-injection and the automaker's VarioCam Plus, the new all-aluminum 2.5-liter flat-four will likely develop upwards of 350 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque. Redline should be about 7,500 rpm. Initial indications say that Porsche will only offer the new engine with its seven-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic, tuned to take advantage of the low-end torque, but a traditional six-speed manual gearbox has not been ruled out. Despite the loss of two cylinders, enthusiasts will likely embrace the new engine as it promises to be lighter, more fuel efficient and more powerful than the 2.7-liter and 3.4-liter sixes in the Cayman/Boxster today.
Even though Porsche has been using Volkswagen Group engines for years (e.g., Cayenne V6, Cayenne Diesel and upcoming Macan), all indications are that the new flat-four will not be shared. Instead, it will be kept in-house for the automaker's sports cars and possible future fitment in an entry-level 911.

Translogic 166: Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, Dec 15 2014

In the same month that Porsche announced that its 918 Spyder is sold out, Translogic is getting its first (and likely last) shot at the plug-in hybrid hypercar. Our drive starts off in a very civilized fashion as we tour the 918 Spyder's e-power and hybrid modes, but the fun really starts when the naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 engine roars to life in sport and race hybrid modes, augmenting the electric motors with an additional 608 horsepower for a total of 887. We even attempt an impromptu 0-60 test to see if we can match Porsche's gobsmacking official time of 2.5 seconds, but sadly we don't have the room to make a run on its 214-mph top speed. Watch as Translogic host Jonathon Buckley pilots this Porsche around an airstrip in Irvine, CA, with a focus on the many driving modes that set the 918 Spyder apart from anything else in the storied automaker's history.
