Spring is here! Time to drive a convertible????
1998 Red Porsche Boxster convertible This was the track car from the Porsche Club of America Regional President. - He used it as an every day driver and track day car. With the suspension set up, the car is a blast to drive. Overall I'd say it's a solid 8. It does have small stone chips on the front hood - easy to fix or fine as is... The interior is decent with a small tear on the drivers seat seam. (reparable I suspect) It originally had a 2.5 engine that was recently replaced with a solid 2.7 engine so while the chassis has about 208K miles the engine and gearbox have less than 50K miles and even more HP. If you look at this car I suspect you will buy it - really nice with great updates... Happy to allow any bidder to inspect/drive prior to bidding on this car. The car is easily worth over 12K especially with the suspension upgrades and the "extra" parts old but good gearbox and engine are worth a fair amount as well. Chassis has some nice options - Upgraded suspension called Porsche ROW M030 stiffens car about 30% and lowers it about 0.5 inches - New front rotors and comes with a set of new in box rear rotors and a bunch of extra brake pads - Car has built in windbreak/screen - Top was replaced a few years ago - decent shape auto up and down works great - Car has a fully functional spare and tool kit - I have receipts and paperwork - Power steering lines were replaced within the last 6 months - Stainless steel brake lines all four corners - AC needs to be recharged - new line added during engine install. - Replaced all the dash lights over the summer, so you will probably never have to replace it - All the O2 and temp sensors are less than 2 years old To the scam artists - don't bother - I will not accept a pay and ship scam or any other one you can create. If you are interested in the car the sale is cash and as-is. I have a clear VA title in hand. THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND IF SOLD THIS AD AND ANY BIDS WILL BE CANCELLED - If you want it prior to auction end use best offer and make a deal. |

More details on Lanzante's F1-engined Porsche 930 restomod
Fri, Mar 29 2019Not long after last year's Porsche Rennsport Reunion, we posted on Lanzante Engineering's restomod project with the original Porsche 911 Turbo. McLaren Formula One used TAG-branded Porsche engines for four years in the 1980s to win two constructor's and three driver's championships. McLaren sold 11 of those engines to Lanzante — nine of which have been raced, one with a win to its credit — and Lanzante is installing them into the original chassis of some 930s. PistonHeads stopped by the shop to find out more. By the end of its service in the MP4/3, the TAG-Porsche TTE P01 motor rang up 1,060 horsepower in qualifying and 960 hp in the race, revving to a 12,600-rpm redline. Porsche engine legend Hans Mezger had led the development, coaxing those numbers from just 1.5-liters of V6 aided by two large KKK turbos at a max of four bar. All that was fine for a time when F1 ran with unlimited testing and unlimited parts, but a modern owner doesn't want to pay five techs to live in his garage and keep his car running. Lanzante asked Cosworth to make the engine more drivable and reliable. Cosworth installed a new crankcase, adjusted the air-fuel mixture, and installed smaller turbos for quicker power delivery, decreasing max boost by 25 percent to three bar (43 psi). The redline has come down to 9,000 rpm, for final output figures of 503 hp and 310 pound-feet of torque. According to PistonHeads, power climbs a "steady incline to redline," and more than half the rev band delivers maximum torque. The 503-hp rating doesn't sound like much today, when a Mustang gets more than 700 hp. Yet the first 930 Turbos got 296 hp and 243 lb-ft from a 3.0-liter flat-six with one big KKK turbo. The most powerful 930 Flatnose worked up 330 hp and 347 lb-ft from a 3.3-liter flat-six. Lanzante's taken out a ton of weight, though. The TAG engine is already 220 pounds lighter than the 930's 3.3-liter; a new carbon fiber hood and engine cover, and aluminum door skins shed more pounds. The total package weighs roughly 2,430 pounds, which is more than 500 pounds lighter than the original Porsche Turbo. That includes the extra pieces needed to make an F1 engine power a passenger car. Lanzante had to swap in a 930 Flatnose front bumper, which replaces the fog lights for oil coolers. The team put radiators at the front of the car as part of a brand new water cooling system. The climate control is entirely electric, because F1 cars didn't come with HVAC.
Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.
