Up for sale is my weekend fun toy! I take this car to a couple autocross events per year, and one track day per year. Last year was Pocono North, this year was Thompson Motor speedway. Also will make a good daily driver, very reliable. Mechanically very good condition, especially considering this is a 27 year old car. It has limited slip differential, upgraded fuel injectors, stainless braided fuel lines, new fuel pressure regulator, mass air-flow sensor and chip upgrade. In the last 3000 miles I’ve done: new pagid RS brake pads, stainless braided brake lines, dot 5, synth fluids, engine head, gasket, valves, guides, timing belt, bilstein front suspension, re-indexed rear torsion bars, new rear bushings, high-end mild track setup and suspension tuning done by Fairfield county motorsports. Brake master cylinder done 5000 miles ago. Two sets of tires, currently has the Toyo Proxy R888 R-compound track tires with only 3 heat cycles. Numerous other work done as needed. I have all paperwork and receipts. It will probably need rotors all around within a year. They are cross-drilled & slotted, and the slots are showing wear. You will also need to swap the other tires back on for winter. The pictures make the exterior look great, however there is extensive paint and clear coat peeling. There is no rust, no dents. Dash has a couple of cracks, seats are dirty but otherwise are in good shape with no rips or tears. If you would like any additional pics, please contact me. I require a non-refundable $500 deposit at auction end, and balance due in-person, cash-only. I have the clean title in-hand. I can be reached at ‘meldavey at gmail dot com’ or (860) 399 one eight four three. Car is located in Westbrook, CT. |

Consumer Reports says infotainment systems 'growing first-year reliability plague'
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Consumer Reports Annual Auto Reliability Survey (right) is out, and the top two spots look much the same as last year's list with Lexus and Toyota in first and second place, respectively. However, there are some major shakeups for 2014, with Acura plunging eight spots from third in 2013 to 11th this year, and Mazda replaces it on the lowest step of the podium. Honda and Audi round out the top five. This year's list includes six Japanese brands in the top 10, two Europeans, one America and one Korean.
Acura isn't the only one taking a tumble, though. Infiniti is the biggest loser this year by dropping 14 spots to 20th place. Other big losses come from Mercedes-Benz with an 11-place fall to 24th, and GMC, which declines 10 positions to 19th.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, it's not traditional mechanical bugs hauling down these automaker's reliability scores. Instead, pesky problems with infotainment systems are taking a series toll on the rankings. According to Consumer Reports, complaints about "in-car electronics" were the most grumbled about element in new cars. Problem areas included things like unresponsive touchscreens, issues pairing phones and multi-use controllers that refused to work right.
Gemballa reveals new Porsche 991-based GT convertible
Sun, 16 Sep 2012Gemballa went through the ringer last year, but rebounded with products that signal a complete turnaround. The latest is the recently-released Porsche 911 Carrera S with a Gemballa GT aerodynamics and technology package. Aero-wise, it includes carbon fiber additions beginning with a front bumper wearing the classic Gemballa air intake design and a lower, angrier splitter. New side skirts run from wheel to wheel, the final piece being a rear bumper in three sculpted horizontal sections featuring a rear diffuser tucked between six rectangular exhaust tips.
No engine mods have been made, but the technology part of the tune - springs that are 30 millimeters shorter yet still able to work with the PASM system - is claimed to make the car faster. Bringing things to a halt is a new Brembo brake system hiding behind 21-inch GForged wheels that are lighter than Porsche's standard 20-inchers.
The Gemballa GT aero kit runs €19,860 ($26,070 U.S.), which includes paint and installation if you happen to be in Germany, and we're assuming that includes the suspension modification, brakes and sport exhaust. The GForged wheels are another €9,895 ($12,989 U.S.) depending on your choice of tire. Check out the press release below for more info, and the photo gallery above for all the angles.
Porsche close to fix for 911 GT3 engine fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014It looks like 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 drivers might actually get to drive their cars again soon. Reports of fires affecting the track-ready Germans first began about a month ago. Then, a few days later, the automaker confirmed two of the five alleged blazes and said owners shouldn't drive their cars until further notice. Porsche then went so far as to offer to pick up the GT3s and transport them to the nearest dealer until the problem was identified and a fix was found. Finally, there appears to be a repair.
"We know the reason and the problem-solving measures. We're testing them," said Porsche CEO Matthias Müller to Bloomberg. The technical fix will be released to owners shortly.
The recall affects all 785 GT3s that have been sold so far, but there have been no reported injuries caused by the fires. When it first announced the safety campaign, Porsche said: "Internal studies to determine the cause of the engine damage have not been completed yet."
