Condition:
Exterior: 90% original paint. Clean CarFax, no accidents. When I acquired the car in December of 2013, the car was very original and solid, but was lacking the final "polish" to show well. So I gave it to to my favorite paint/body guy with the brief to "brush this up this slightly where needed, but maintain the originality above all." Work completed included full detail, blending some new paint around the flares (stone chips and the such only, no dents or body work) and front spoiler and rockers, the wheel lips were polished and any curb rash was repaired (all four 16" Fuchs are original to the car). A couple door and sun roof seals were replaced as were a couple old cloudy light lenses and light gaskets. But, this car is VERY original, no body work ever. Total bill was about $3,400. Interior: Like the exterior, the car just needed some polish. I ordered and installed a new custom carpet kit from Classic Carpets in Belgium ($661 Euros + shipping), that looks absolutely Factory NOS, re-upolstered and re-clothed the driver's seat (wear from 27 years of an ass on that seat), cleaned the original leather and swapped the worn steering wheel for a NOS vintage Momo Prototipo ($1,000). The headliner was also tightened in the few places it was sagging. Total interior bill, about $4,800 w/ carpet kit and wheel. If you PREFER the factory wheel, I'm having that restored in Florida, so you could have that instead when done, but then I keep the vintage MOMO/get it back. Mechanical: The legendary Andial re-built the motor at about 101,000 miles (car has a little over 104,000 now), re-did the brakes, etc. I will post the work order. I let my mechanical guys at the car, and they could not find a thing to fix, short of replacing a light bulb in the left driving light and a couple other interior bulbs. Known issues: A small stain on the cloth rear passenger side seat (see picture), slight wear on the leather sport seat bolsters (see pictures) and usual marks from 27 years of low miles used per year (averaged 4K a year driven). The cassette player is also missing the dust cover door. Overall: This car was owned by the same guy in Southern California from 1988 to December 2013 when I bought it. It was his dream car and it was never parked outdoors overnight. While it was used sparingly (to the average of about 4K miles a year), it is a VERY solid, very original, very well kept car. I have the window sticker from the Porsche dealer where the 2nd owner bought it in 1988, they had it Federalized. It's passed smog every year except for one year (pre-engine re-build) and it's currently registered and smog-cleared. This is a no-excuses 930 that matches the window sticker and the Porsche COA I had ordered in every way. So, you've got a car with a window sticker from the Porsche Dealer who sold it as a used Gray market car in 1988, a Porsche COA issued in December of 2013, an single owner history of 27 years, $40,000 in work receipts done over the last 3,000 miles driven, including an Andial engine rebuild (Google them, they are legend for Porsche engines). It's also a very unique color combo, very period, very European, and not something boring you'll see ten of at the next Porsche owner's event. VIN decode: W = Germany P = Porsche 0 = sports car J = G model turbo coupe B= G model turbo engine 0 = no air bags 93 = 911 9 = checksum digit G = 1986 S = Stuttgard built (right plant for 911) 050065 = serial # So, a "WP0" car was built for any market that was not the US or Canada. Thus, "Gray Market" imported (again, not an issue at all as long as there is a clean title and smog, which there is). Some collectors prefer US cars as they are "100% as intended" and some collectors prefer the Euro cars as they – generally – have more power (less smog stuff) and cleaner bumpers/turn signals. On Apr-21-14 at 19:36:23 PDT, seller added the following information: At 101,677, Andial rebuilt the engine, the front and rear brakes and did a number of small items for $19,013.46 and $2,756.77. The car also comes with all the service records and owners manuals going back to the 80s. |

Audi RS7 vs. Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would you pick? [w/poll]
Wed, 08 Jan 2014We live in a blessed time - a time when you can buy not just one, but two (or three, or four) monstrously powerful, blazingly fast four-doors that can't only keep up with modern supercars, but in some instances, will outperform them as well. Two of the finest are the Audi RS7 and the refreshed Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Motor Trend has been messing around with the both of them in this comparison video.
MT provides a comprehensive and entertaining look at the RS7 and the turbocharged Panamera as they go through a battery of tests, before getting tossed about on both the road and the track. Starring flip-flop aficionado Jonny Lieberman, it's a must-watch, whether you're in the market for one of the two super sedans or merely want to see the former Autoblog editor again.
After having a look at the video, register a vote for the car you'd park in your driveway in our poll. Hop below for the full video from the team at Motor Trend.
Ferrari return to Le Mans looking more likely?
Wed, 18 Dec 2013Statements made by Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo may indicate that the Italian brand could return to a form of racing it's been absent from for 40 years - prototype racing. That's right, LMP1 could see a factory Ferrari team for the first time since 1973, if a report from ESPN F1 is to be believed.
"We have won with the 458 GTE, but I also quite like the idea of racing at Le Mans in the highest category: who knows, maybe one day we can return and win, say thanks and come home," Montezemolo said. "Maybe we should give it some consideration..."
These seemingly idle, off-hand comments might not hold much water, were rumors about Ferrari's return to prototype racing not swirling as recently as August. There's also the fact that the upcoming, 1.6-liter, turbocharged V6 being used for Formula One complies with the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's own LMP1 regulations, according to ESPN. Finally, Ferrari returning to Le Mans might also explain this video of a camouflaged Ferrari LaFerrari testing a new turbocharged engine, which we showed you a few weeks back. There's a fair chance that what we're actually seeing in that video are the early stages of a new Ferrari prototype testing.
