1. I’m selling my 1978 Porsche 930 turbo. I have owned the car since 1986. When I bought the car from a private party I was informed that the mileage on the odometer was not guaranteed to be accurate, mainly because the car is a “Grey Market” car shipped from Germany to United States. Currently the odometer reads 54,669, which most likely represents the miles driven in the United States. I drove the car about 15,000 miles. The car should be considered as a project car. It has been garaged since 1992. Back in 1992 it was blowing the fuse for the fuel pump and leaking some oil and I intended to get it fixed but one thing lead to another and it just sat there. Title is clean, and I own the car free and clear. It was inspected and approved by Washington State Patrol when I bought it and is tagged accordingly, Control number 57332. Here’s a list of flaws and defects I know of. There may be more that I’m unaware of.

· Clutch does not engage, it was working fine in 1992 but now when you push the pedal it doesn’t engage and feels “spongy”.

· Car doesn’t roll easily; I think the disc brakes may be sticking some.

· Driver window stuck down, it blew the window fuse when I tried to roll it up. Worked fine in 1992

· Passenger door won’t open. Linkage seems to be stuck. Again opened fine in 1992

· Oil cooler, located near front right wheel is leaking slowly.

· Engine leaks oil or something leaking near engine compartment. Car has been sitting in the same spot for a number of years so I know its leaking by oil stain on garage floor.

· Front hood spring doesn’t hold up hood, must place something to keep it up.

· Engine did turn over fine back in 1992, but I haven’t tried to turn over recently because I don’t want to cause any damage.

· Car was originally light blue in color, was painted charcoal grey before I owned it. There are a few very small spots where blue is showing through.

· Slight scratches on front right of car.

· Crack in paint on rear left of car.

· Front spoiler rubber shows wear.

· Small rust spot on front right near headlight.

· Seats show some wear in places.

· I’m missing one of rear floor mats.

Porsche Pajun to go all-electric as Tesla rival

Wed, Jan 28 2015

Porsche has been rumored to be working on a smaller counterpart to the Panamera for nearly four years now, but we have yet to see any sign of the model dubbed Pajun coming to fruition beyond a digital rendering hidden in the background of another Porsche design. Apparently Stuttgart has been having trouble making the business case in an already crowded market segment. But that doesn't mean the project is completely off the table. According to the latest from Germany's own Auto Motor und Sport, Porsche is now planning to launch the so-called Pajun (shorthand for Panamera Junior just like the Macan project was previously called Cajun) purely as an electric vehicle. With an eye evidently fixed on how dedicated hybrids and EVs are gaining traction in the marketplace (to say nothing of actual tarmac), the electric Pajun - almost certain to carry a different name to the showroom – would be different enough to distinguish itself from existing four-doors of that size like the Mercedes E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Audi A6, et al. Word has it that Porsche believes that battery technologies will advance enough over the next four years to give its four-door EV a range of nearly 250 miles on a single charge. The model's arrival would be just the latest in a series of environmental concessions made by the company with the broadest range of plug-in hybrids on the market. Aside from the E-Hybrid versions of the Panamera and Cayenne, Porsche arguably led the charge (so to speak) towards hybrid hypercars with the 918 Spyder, is downsizing many of its engines and is turbocharging almost the entirety of the 911 range.

2014 Porsche Cayman promo video hits the web

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Don't know how we missed this, but you don't have to play around with the 2014 Porsche Cayman configurator to see the new coupe in action; Porsche has given us more than two beautiful minutes of Cayman footage to enjoy.
The partners in the on-screen tango are the 275-horsepower base Cayman and the 325-hp Cayman S. If you like to keep track of such things, the former starts at $52,600, the latter at $63,800, plus $950 destination for each. Watching a video like the one below, however, is free.

Weekly Recap: Ferrari, Ford and Porsche power up for Geneva

Sat, Feb 7 2015

Monday was Groundhog Day. Tuesday, apparently, was Sports Car Day. The Ferrari 488 GTB, the Ford Focus RS and the Porsche Cayman GT4 all debuted within hours of each other ahead of their rollouts at the Geneva Motor Show. Three sporty machines, three vastly different approaches – and a lot of implications for enthusiasts. That's a day worth repeating. It also illustrates the opportunities automakers see in the performance market, which is expected to grow in the coming years. Ford estimates the segment has expanded 14 percent in Europe and surged 70 percent in North America since 2009. The Detroit Auto Show was evidence of this, and performance cars of every stripe debuted, including the Acura NSX, Ford GT, Alfa Romeo 4C Spider and several others. This isn't a fad. Performance cars aren't going away. The question is why? Stricter CAFE standards are looming in the United States, as are tighter emissions regulations in Europe. And no one expects gas prices to remain low in America. None of this matters for sports cars, and automakers are increasingly using them to elevate their images. That's why Dodge rolled out two 707-horsepower Hellcats last year. It's why Ford has decided to resurrect the GT for road and track. It's why in the depths of bankruptcy, General Motors continued work on the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, not to mention the Z06. "Great brands are made one car at a time," Ford of Europe president Jim Farley said at the reveal of the Focus RS. Still, companies make those cars for different reasons. View 5 Photos Mainstream brands like Ford and Dodge want to build cars that get people talking, excite their bases and drive more potential customers into the showroom. They probably don't buy a Focus RS or a Hellcat, but suddenly the regular Focus hatch looks a bit hotter, and that V6 Charger seems to be just a touch more muscular. The halo of performance is alive and well in the eyes of automakers and their customers. "It's one of the most effective catalysts for ingenuity and innovation," said Joe Bakaj, vice president of product development for Ford of Europe. That also leads to a trickle-down effect. Some of the technologies inevitably make their way to other products. It's hard to think the new all-wheel-drive system in the Focus RS that distributes torque front to rear and side to side won't be used in other vehicles. It's different for Ferrari and Porsche.
