Greetings,
I'm the second owner of this 2006 911 S. I bought the car in Arizona, from the original owner. The original owner was a Porsche collector and well known to the local dealer. Since purchasing the car, it has been driven as an occasional use, Summer car, and has been an absolute joy to own. The car is in very good mechanical and cosmetic condition, as you would expect. There is nothing needed, and no surprises.
I welcome a pre-purchase inspection and will assist if one is desired. I'm only a few miles from the local Porsche dealer. Basic maintenance and oil change, filter changes are up to date. The tires are Hankook, Ventus Evo V12s, and they're 50% worn. The brakes are sharp and incredible. This is my second Porsche and I've come to know the cars well. I had a Cayman S before purchasing this 911S. The car has never been used on a track or driven hard in any way. I drove the car mostly on weekends and tried to drive mostly on smooth, country roads, which is where the car shines. I've used only Zymol for exterior car and the car has rarely been dirty enough to wash. There is a road rash on the back, right wheel. This came with the car when I bought it. The CD player doesn't eject as it should. I haven't looked into having this fixed. I enjoy the sound of the engine. There are minor stone chips on the hood, which I'm leaving for the new owner to either keep or have touched up. Touching up will weaken the original paint and I didn't want to affect the factory paint. I like to keep cars as they originally are made and I don't like modification. This said, I changed the indicator lights to be clear rather than yellow, which I believe is a nice improvement. I did this on my Cayman S as well. The original indicator lights will accompany the car.
The car has PASM, which is active stability control. This tightens the suspension and sharpens throttle response. This is actually very noticeable when driving. Many options, including: Power, heated seats. Bose high end sound. Sport Chrono Plus. Navigation, metal door sill insignias, colored crest wheel caps, short throw sport shifter, and full leather interior. Retail price was over $94,000. I have the original Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, which is a nice document to have.
Gorgeous carmon red over grey leather. Full leather package, including dash. The headlined is alcanterra (sp). Extra, Porsche floor mats included. The original keys are present. I've upgraded the key fob on the driver's key to the 997.2 key, which is much more robust than the 997.1 key. This is minor, but it's a $300 key. The car has a RayTel hands free system. This was put in by the first owner and it does work well. It links to my iPhone. The car is also equipped with a LoJack system, which I never activated. I don't fear theft, since the car is rarely anywhere other than my residence.
The car seems to have blue book value at $51,000 or so. I'm a reasonable person and will work to meet a serious buyer who wants a great car. I would like the car to go to someone who will maintain and enjoy it. To summarize, this car is exceptionally clean and well maintained. There are no surprises. Title is clear and unencumbered. I live about 20 minutes from Detroit Metro Airport and can accommodate someone flying in. I flew to AZ and drove this car to MI and it was a very fun trip! Please ask any questions.
Please note: I am the second owner of this car. The Autocheck report is stating more owners and this is incorrect. Possibly due to my buying from the dealer, but I'm unsure. I know for certain that I am the second owner and I can verify this with 100% certainty.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
Modded budget Mazda Miata takes on new Porsche Boxster in more challenges
Tue, 23 Sep 2014Earlier this month, our friends across the pond at Auto Express released the first in a two-video series that would see them try and build up a second-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata that could best a standard Porsche Boxster around the track. While that first video detailed the mods to the MX-5 - a supercharger, some suspension upgrades and a new set of super-sticky rubber being chief among them - and set baseline lap times for the stock car, today, we have the results of the 5,000-pound ($8,200) upgrade job.
Of course, we aren't going to spoil those for you. You'll need to watch the full video, which recaps the upgrades before digging into a comparison of both straight-line-speed differences between the 2.7-liter Porsche Boxster and blown Miata, as well as their behavior and lap times on the track.
Take a look and let us know what you think in Comments.
2014 Porsche 911 Targa takes its crop-top off in Motor City
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Back in 1965, Porsche invented the 911 Targa as a matter necessity. Believing that a finicky National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was prepared to outlaw convertibles, the innovative automaker created the half-open car as a way to keep wind rushing through owners' hair. Though far removed from those formative days, it seems as though the 2015 Porsche 911 Targa has come to the Detroit Auto Show with a new-school version of some old-school tech.
While the last Targa featured a trick sliding glass roof at the touch of the button, the new car dramatically swallows a traditional-looking panel via an exceptionally complex-looking mechanical operation. The net result is "the same fun factor and freedom" that can be had with a complete convertible, though with slightly more open-driving protection while underway.
And, as is the case with all of the current 911 range, getting underway can be done with reasonable rapidity. The entry-level Targa 4 rocks a 350-horsepower, 3.4-liter flat-six engine just behind the rear axle, making that car good for 175 miles per hour at the top end (with the seven-speed manual, 174 mph with PDK) and a 0-to-60 sprint of 4.6 seconds. The Targa 4S, meanwhile, offers 400 horsepower from 3.8-liters of boxer six, runs to 60 in 4.2 seconds and hits a top "track speed" of 183 mph.
