Hello and thanks for checking out this listing of my 2004 Porsche Boxster S Special Edition in excellent condition. This car was created as a special commemorative tribute to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 550 Spyder and is an example of just 1,953 cars made (this is #1,290). Special styling cues native to the Special Edition are the Carrera GT Silver Metallic paintwork (then only available on this car and the Carrera GT supercar), an individually numbered plaque mounted on the center console, 18-inch Carrera wheels, and a stacked center mounted exhaust. The suspension has been optimized as well and features stiffer springs and shocks, plus Porsche Stability Management fitted as standard. Brakes are ventilated aluminum discs with four-piston brake calipers with an aluminum paint finish.
Special Edition special features aside, this car is classic Porsche refinement and engineering at its best. A 3.2L flat 6-cylinder power plant supplies up to 264 horsepower @ 6,200rpm. The Tiptronic S dual mode transmission offers 5 automatic shifting gears or a manual mode with sport steering wheel-mounted shift buttons. The leather interior is in showroom shape with no rips, tears, or wear marks. The car was well optioned with cruise control, a thumping Bose Sound System with AudioPilot, a remote 6-disc CD changer, sport seats, and Xenon Litronic headlamps. Carpets, floor mats, and all trim are in likewise incredible condition. I am the third owner of this stunning roadster and have put barely 4k miles on the car since purchasing it in June of 2011. Regular service has been courtesy of a local import specialist or the service team at Delaware Porsche. Just installed is a brand new battery and low-tone horn. The only "issue" that the next owner may want to address is a pulled area of trim on the headliner just rear of the top release (see photograph), although it has never bothered me and I doubt it will bother you. The car has been garaged since new and has been used exclusively as a fair-weather, top-down cruiser. The bodywork is laser straight with no dings. The paintwork is an 8.5 out of 10 with only a very few blemishes with regard to minuscule stone chips, some light scuffing under the front bumper (this is a low-slung car), and a bit of swirl here and there. Open the driver's side door and you will see a trio of very small nicks just beneath the door latch mechanism (see photograph). All four wheels are in quite good condition with colored center crests. A couple of the wheels sport some very light curb rash that is barely noticeable without going nose-to-tire with the wheel. I have done my utmost to take accurate and detailed photos of the car and welcome your questions. Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus that have fewer than 1,000 miles. They were installed at an expense of just under $1,000 less than a year ago. The car is available for your immediate review here in Wilmington, Delaware...convenient to both the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. metro areas. The car is a true stunner and is well worth the trip no matter where you may be located. Local pick-up is of course available but I would be happy to help the winning bidder coordinate transportation anywhere. Thanks very much for reading this lengthy description. The car has brought me a lot of joy over the past three years with the only out of pocket expenses being the very low-cost service items previously discussed and Super Unleaded, of course! I am selling it because I simply don't drive it enough due to work and life commitments. The reserve has been set at a very reasonable amount well below KBB value and is an excellent value. |

Porsche (finally) unleashes full, official details on 918 Spyder
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Porsche has finally let released all of the details on the 918 Spyder, the German brand's challenger to the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari, after months of leading our poor, performance-loving hearts on. The covers were lifted at the Volkswagen Group night, an enormous precursor to the Frankfurt Motor Show, and include a massive, 11,000-word press release that's attached at the bottom of this page.
The 918 Spyder features a mid-mounted, dry-sump-lubricated, 4.6-liter V8 engine that generates 608 horsepower when left to its own devices. Combined with a trio of electric motors, which produce 286 hp, the total system horsepower for the 918 Spyder rests at 887 ponies. That's less than the McLaren P1 (903 hp) and the LaFerrari (949 hp), but the Porsche is also likely to be a bit cheaper, starting at $845,000, while the McLaren will be in the seven-figure range for certain, and it will more than likely be joined by the LaFezza.
The 918 Spyder counters with a 2.8-second jog to 62, a 7.7-second run to 124 and it will hit 186 in 22 seconds.
World Car of the Year finalists announced
Fri, 07 Mar 2014To say the 2014 Geneva Motor Show was packed full of news is an understatement as big as the show's home at the Palexpo convention center. Despite everything that we were able to cover during this year's show, there's still more coming out of Switzerland, including the announcement of the finalists for the 2014 World Car of the Year Awards.
We reported on the original list of finalists over three weeks ago, and now, that initial list has been pared down to three finalists for each of the five awards. The finalists were announced at a press conference by frequent Autoblog contributor and co-chair of the awards, Matt Davis (above).
The finalists for the overall title of 2014 World Car of the Year are the Audi A3, the BMW 4 Series and the Mazda3. The World Luxury Car of the Year will be either the Bentley Flying Spur, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, while the Performance Car of the Year will be awarded to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the Ferrari 458 Speciale or the Porsche 911 GT3 (which, um, yeah...).
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
