I have a very rare 1968 912 Porsche Targa, one of only a few made in 1968... The 912 registry has only 66 of them.... THE LAST OWNER HAD IT FOR 23 YEARS !!!! The car is in HARD TO FIND Polo Red paint (#6802) this was the cars factory color... This is a number matching car the engine #1281730 and transmission #1281554 (902/02)....from the factory.. I have the Porsche letter of authenticity to back this up.. This document will come with the car. The cars paint is 5 out of 10 due to chips, scratches and a key job on the drivers side and hood, from a porsche lover....THE CAR COMES WITH FACTORY BOOKS.. Has OME FUCHS WHEELS stamped 72-73... The car does not have the right bumper pads or bottom rocker moldings... The front pop riveted vin tag is gone when you open the hood of the car... This was done when the car was repainted some time ago I was told, I found a new ome unstamped one that I will send with the car....The rest of the vin stamps on the car match door frame and main body stamp vin# 12870377 ......The car has a little rust in the bottom of the rear corner of the floor pan where it seams, that can be fixed easy..This will be shown in the pictures.... The car runs and drives very good, no smoke, the clutch is good, and has no big oil leaks. selling miles unknown. The only bad mechanical item is it does grind from 2nd into 1st gear... all the other gears are good.. The interior is very nice, one small crack in the dash, and drivers seat seam is coming undone on seat cushion, and one sun visor is gone.... This is a fun, good looking driver that could be made into what ever you want...I tried to honestly describe the car's condition..... Please come drive the car anytime..

Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."

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.
