I am selling what was my father in laws 1973 Porsche 914 2.0. It is a strong running 2.0 and runs well, starts right up and shifts nicely as well. The odometer reads 104k miles and it holds oil very well. The engine has some oil dampness on the bottum, but I see only one drop every 6 months to a year. The heat is hooked up and puts out a lot of heat. It was originally black and was repainted at one point to red. The current paint is about 15 year old enemal and I would call the paint job a 7 our of 10. The aluminum trim is in nice condition and the chrome bumpers are some of the nicest I have seen in years. A new battery tray was just installed. Door gaps are good. Overall, the floor pan in very solid. There is some rust in the rear triangle area for the floors on each side. Something must have happened in the front at some point. The piece that the bumper bolts to had been replaced. There is all 5 fuch rims including the spare which are nice, just could use some polishing. The carpets are very nice. There are a couple cracks in the dash, a couple small tears in the seats and back pad. There is a center console with the three gauges. The breaks work very well with a 19mm 911 master cylinder, the front rotors, wheel bearings and pads are new and the front calipers were rebuilt a couple years ago. If I were keeping the car I would put on new rear rotors and pads. There is stainless steel heat exchangers and a hand sewn leather steering wheel. I have driven the car about 100 miles this spring and it has been a fun driver and reliable. The car is located about 15 miles south of Ohare airport just outside of Chicago. It could be driven home, or if you have a need for shipping, I have had very good luck with Fed EX auto transport(800-325-4267). If you have any questions, please let me know. Good luck bidding!

Audi RS7 vs. Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would you pick? [w/poll]
Wed, 08 Jan 2014We live in a blessed time - a time when you can buy not just one, but two (or three, or four) monstrously powerful, blazingly fast four-doors that can't only keep up with modern supercars, but in some instances, will outperform them as well. Two of the finest are the Audi RS7 and the refreshed Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Motor Trend has been messing around with the both of them in this comparison video.
MT provides a comprehensive and entertaining look at the RS7 and the turbocharged Panamera as they go through a battery of tests, before getting tossed about on both the road and the track. Starring flip-flop aficionado Jonny Lieberman, it's a must-watch, whether you're in the market for one of the two super sedans or merely want to see the former Autoblog editor again.
After having a look at the video, register a vote for the car you'd park in your driveway in our poll. Hop below for the full video from the team at Motor Trend.
Ferrari return to Le Mans looking more likely?
Wed, 18 Dec 2013Statements made by Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo may indicate that the Italian brand could return to a form of racing it's been absent from for 40 years - prototype racing. That's right, LMP1 could see a factory Ferrari team for the first time since 1973, if a report from ESPN F1 is to be believed.
"We have won with the 458 GTE, but I also quite like the idea of racing at Le Mans in the highest category: who knows, maybe one day we can return and win, say thanks and come home," Montezemolo said. "Maybe we should give it some consideration..."
These seemingly idle, off-hand comments might not hold much water, were rumors about Ferrari's return to prototype racing not swirling as recently as August. There's also the fact that the upcoming, 1.6-liter, turbocharged V6 being used for Formula One complies with the Automobile Club de l'Ouest's own LMP1 regulations, according to ESPN. Finally, Ferrari returning to Le Mans might also explain this video of a camouflaged Ferrari LaFerrari testing a new turbocharged engine, which we showed you a few weeks back. There's a fair chance that what we're actually seeing in that video are the early stages of a new Ferrari prototype testing.
A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan
Wed, 27 Nov 2013
He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.
