Claremont, California, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: joleenjnnogales@artfriend.com . his is a real Porsche 356 – Cox was out to replicate Dean Jeffries custom 356 outlaw shown in my picture .Bare metal restoration in 2004 at Cox Motorsports in Grandview (Kansas City) mo.
This could be the most beautiful 356 Porsche coupe in existence! It is definitely NOT stock! Well over $100k invested to create the ultimate 356 hot rod.
Starting with a rust free 63 coupe, the car was stripped to bare metal, and totally rebuilt from the ground up. Beautifully installed new larger 911 battery box and pan at time of restoration.
Notice the incredible roofline...it has been chopped 2 inches to resemble the profile of the Porsche Abarth Carrerras.
Front fenders sloped to look similar to the A 356 fender line.
Headlights dished like Ferrarri Dino. Door handles removed, filled with metal perfectly, remote door openers installed...this blows them away at Starbucks! Show quality paint by Mike Winfrey. Won best paint at World of Wheels. Color is Porsche linen silver and applied and buffed to perfection!
Power windows, recessed license plate, and early 356 beehive taillights.
Perfect correct red interior. New carpet, headliner. New 12v wiring, modern snap in fuse box system, eliminating the hassle of old glass fuses.
All mechanicals by Cox Motorsports, the best 911 race shop in the country. Perfect 1978 3 liter 275 hp 911SC motor, 5-speed 901 gearbox, and 911 transaxle.
The front mechanicals are all 356 – the rear mechanicals are all 911.
Heater from the 911 engine works great.911 disk brakes all around, new shocks, suspension, uprights reinforced like Cox's Porsche racecars, 911 alloy wheels. Charcoal filter for gas tank, Turn signals hidden above headlights, Front fender oil cooler with thermostatically controlled fan (never overheats), Aeroquip oil lines to the motor. New Weber tuned carbs, detailed engine compartment. Performance is like no 356 you have ever driven, very, very fast and reliable. The exhaust note is spectacular, coming from the Cox Custom Exhaust system that is silver jet hot coated. This car is truly spectacular, the only one like it in the world, and gets more looks than you can imagine. It looks just right, very subtle, so the guys who appreciate the classics love this car, and the guys who love performance go nuts when they look under the custom louvered deck lid. This is your chance to have one of the most unique, beautiful Porsches anywhere. If you want it, you had better get it, because you will never see another one like this.

Porsche offering short-term loans to Macan waitlisters
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Walk into a Porsche dealer today, place an order for a Macan and you'll be looking at a waiting period of six months or more before you can expect delivery. That may be common enough for high-end European automakers, but the Macan is meant to lure new buyers to the brand, and the waitlist could be enough to deter them from sticking around.
The solution? Offer to lease them a Boxster or Cayman until their new Macan arrives. Shorter in term that the usual new-car lease, these six-month terms are designed to keep buyers from turning their backs, all the while experiencing the kind of vehicle Porsche does best.
Of course it doesn't hurt that the dealer then gets a used sports car to sell again once the short-term lease is up. And we wouldn't be surprised to see some buyers asking to hold on to their mid-engined sports car for a little longer, either.
Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs. Mercedes SLS AMG Black in battle of who can shred more rubber
Fri, 04 Apr 2014We might be looking at the end of an era in European performance models. Mercedes-Benz is doing away with the SLS in favor of a rumored smaller and cheaper SLC, and Porsche has said that a new 911 GT2 isn't necessarily a sure thing, which means another 911 GT2 RS is even farther away. In its latest video, Evo's Jethro Bovingdon pits the ultimate versions of these German sports coupes against each other and finds two of the fastest cars the magazine has ever lapped around its track.
In one corner, there is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series that sits as the pinnacle of the company's halo model. It relies on the classic setup of a V8 mounted in front powering the rear wheels. On the other side, there is the 911 GT2 RS with a turbocharged flat-six mounted at the back, spinning the rear wheels. It was conceived to be Porsche's ultimate expression of a turbocharged 911, and while it's a few years old, Bovingdon shows that it's up to the task of racing a more modern rival.
Both of these rear-wheel-drive monsters are more than capable of some fantastically smoky power-slides, but they also show how great the last generation of sports cars was. Scroll down to check out the video.
'Faster. Farther.' dives into the history of Porsche racing tech
Wed, 07 Aug 2013No doubt, Porsche has produced some of the best endurance racecars around, such as the turbocharged, slant-nose 935 of the 1970s and the ground-effects-enhanced 956 and 962 of the 1980s. But the company's most famous racecar, its first overall winner at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, was the 917.
The 917 embodied many of Porsche's technological achievements up to that point, such as the company's first 12- and 16-cylinder engines (the flat-16 was never used in competition), fiberglass bodies that implemented early aerodynamic practices and the use of new, exotic materials, such as magnesium and titanium.
The racecar was commissioned by the head of Porsche Motorsports, Ferdinand Piëch, to win overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970, after he realized a loophole in the rules that allowed cars to compete with engines up to five liters in the Sport category if they were also production models. Piëch saw opportunity: the top prototype class was restricted to three liters; the production minimum to compete in Sport was 25 cars. And so, with much effort, Porsche assembled 25 "production" 4.5-liter 917s and had them parked in a neat line for the race inspectors to verify their legitimacy. It didn't take long before people realized the new Porsches were much faster than the prototype racers, with a top speed approaching 250 miles per hour.
