I wiped the dirt off the bottom of the floor pans and it revealed the most factory fresh looking bottom I have ever seen. The car presents quite well however the paint is by no means perfect. There are scratches , chips, touch ups and other wear. But it looks very good for a 40 year old car. All instruments function properly including the clock which actually keeps time. There are cracks in the dash and normal wear and tear in the interior. The leather seats are in wonderful condition. The trunk area is very tidy and original. The spare has never been used. The engine compartment is tidy as well. The engine starts up on the first crank cold or warm. The engine does have trouble idling until it is warm but goes down the road with no problems.

Happy bidding and Happy Motoring, Darren Hall TEL: 406-471-5883 On Apr-14-14 at 21:05:04 PDT, seller added the following information: This car is completely RUST FREE. I got a question about one of the photos where the Drivers side rear quarter shows a small rusty looking spot behind the rear wheel where the fender meets the rear bumper. The spot is red primer coming through where the previous owner burned through it with a buffer. That is the only major paint defect on the car. I have a small collection of early Porsche. It is small due to space and because of this I am very picky about any car I purchase. I have an overwhelming lust for original unrestored cars and that is why I purchased this car. It is a very good and honest example of an unrestored Porsche. The only things that have changed are a few areas where there has been paint touch up and the radio is not original. I have placed as many pics as I can on the listing showing areas that I would have concern. Most of the pics are to show you real condition. The car shows wonderfully as a driver. This is a must have car for Porsche collectors. There just were not that many made and there are not many left. Especially in this kind of condition. |

Porsche considering turbo for new GT3 RS [w/poll]
Tue, 03 Jun 2014Some automakers make one hardcore version of a sports car and are done with it. Or at least they make one at a time. Think Ferrari 458 Speciale, Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (or Super Trofeo Stradale or Squadra Corse) or Maserati GranTurismo MC. But not Porsche. It transforms the 911 into the hard-core GT3, the even harder-core GT3 RS, the you've-got-to-be-psychotic GT2 and the do-you-have-a-death-wish GT2 RS. The RS models take things to a further extreme, but what separates GT3 from GT2 models has traditionally been the use of foced induction: GT3s are naturally aspirated, while GT2s go turbo. But that could all be about to change.
According to the rumors making their round of the webosphere, Porsche is considering using a turbocharged engine for the next GT3 RS. The reason is that, as we all know, Porsche has already pushed the 3.8-liter flat-six in the existing GT3 about as far as it can go, and then some. And buyers expect not only a more bare-bones package with the GT3 RS, but also a bit of extra power.
Given that everything seems to be going turbo these days, the move might make some measure of sense, especially if Porsche wants to avoid with the GT3 RS the spontaneous combustion issues it faced with the GT3. But we can't help but wonder why, at that point, it wouldn't just skip the GT3 RS and go straight for the GT2.
Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
China may surpass US as Porsche's largest market this year thanks to Cayenne
Thu, 09 Oct 2014China has already surpassed the United States as the world's largest automotive market, so it's no surprise that one day soon it will be the world's largest Porsche market.
In fact, that day may already be here, as the PRC's Porschephiles outbought their American counterparts in September. Porsche's Chinese dealers sold 4,344 cars last month to America's 3,607. Through all of 2014 so far, though, the US is still the larger market for the German brand.
"The U.S. performed very well this year, after a great year in 2013, but China is growing fast, thanks to the Cayenne which is our best seller there," Porsche's sales and marketing boss, Bernhard Maier, told Automotive News Europe.
