This absolutely stunning Porsche was built by one of the most knowledgeable and passionate enthusiasts around. The
donor car was an accident free, rust free '81 SC Coupe.
The entire car was stripped of every removable part. That includes wiring, glass, doors, fenders, gas tank, all
suspension, transmission, engine and the complete interior. Please check out all the pictures carefully to examine
the perfection of this incredible build! Notice that most of the bolts, nuts and washers have been yellow zink
plated to duplicate the ones used by the factory. The new door panels had the smooth vinyl removed so that the
basketweave pattern would match the seats. Incredible attention to detail!
The "hottest" segment of the air cooled Porsche market is the RS/ST Tribute cars, also known as "Outlaws", "Hot
Rods" and "R" Gruppes! Several builders are charging $300,000 to $600,000 with back logs of three years. This car
is every bit as exciting as their cars at a fraction of the prices. This car is now like an ST. It has the ST front
bumper and steel rear decklid. It comes with a painted "Ducktail" rear wing and a painted front "RS" spoiler as
used on a '73 RS. It would be a very handsome "RS" Tribute with the addition of "Carrera" side stripes as on the
"RS's.
This is the perfect vehicle in which to attend the many "Cars and Coffee's" that take place around the country. It
surely would be the "Star" of each event!
Here are the highlights:
Car has Air conditioning and retro modern stereo with auxillary cpability
Fresh window out respray in original Chiffon (Light Ivory)
Custom finish fiberglass long hood from “TRE” Racing. Under the hood has been left "raw" as in the original

2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 Cup step out early
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Though Porsche won't be feeding us the full 911 enchilada until tomorrow's Geneva-based festivities, we have managed to scare up some official images of the 2014 911 GT3, as well as the all-new 911 GT3 Cup. As Porsche is celebrating 50 years of the 911, we anticipate a good day for great cars.
The new GT3 looks every bit the proper successor to the racy 911 nameplate, with a fixed rear wing large enough to serve cocktails on, a curvaceous body kit and 20-inch wheels that offer a dominating on-road stance. It's a good bet that Porsche will have coaxed something like 450 horsepower from the naturally aspirated, 3.8-liter flat-six engine that hangs over the car's rear axle. A seven-speed manual and Porsche's own PDK transmission are the likely gearbox offerings.
Should the mental quickness and imposing wingery of the standard GT3 not be enough for you, future racecar driver, Porsche is also bringing a GT3 Cup car to Geneva. The German automaker has given just a few scant details about this Cup car - 460 hp on tap, a production run of just 2,400 units - including three images of the kitted out racer. Certainly more and finer details will emerge, when Porsche shines the spotlights on its new 911s tomorrow.
Noted Porsche collector Magnus Walker learns what a TED Talk is firsthand
Wed, 23 Jul 2014Porsche collector Magnus Walker has the name and looks of a Viking, but once he starts talking about his life story and what drives him, he's an absolutely fascinating guy. Walker recently gave a Ted Talk at a Tedx conference at UCLA and claimed he didn't really understand the idea behind the speeches. You would never know it, though. Walker is as gifted a speaker as he is a talented restorer of some seriously cool Porsches.
Walker's talk is titled "Go with Your Gut Feeling," and it amounts to his autobiography. He recounts his birth in England, dropping out of school at 15 and moving to the US at 19. Once in Los Angeles, he started selling second-hand clothes and grew it into a fashion business.
Of course, what makes him interesting to us is his passion for Porsches. He fell in love with them when he saw a white 911 as a child at the Earl's Court Motor Show in England, but Walker waited until the '90s to buy his first one. From there he started racing and eventually restoring them. Since the documentary Urban Outlaw about him was released, Magnus has become famous for the love of the brand.
eBay Find of the Day: Your choice of new, unregistered mid-2000s supercars
Wed, 26 Dec 2012If you didn't quite find what you were hoping to see under the tree this year, maybe it's about time you buy yourself something nice. Something like an unregistered 2005 Porsche Carrera GT. The car has never been titled and has just 83 miles on the odometer. With one owner since new, the Carrera GT is likely to be as nice an example as you're likely to find outside of a museum. Porsche only built 340 of these machines back in 2005, and with a 610 horsepower V10 kicking at your spine, you can lap Santa's sleigh next year. Currently, the Carrera GT has a buy it now price of $457,325 with around six days left on the auction.
Not flashy enough for your tastes? Stroll on down to West Hollywood and you'll find a similarly untitled 2004 Ferrari Enzo up for grabs with a sticker of $1.8 million. Technically a Euro-spec car, the Enzo isn't legal to operate on US roads, but could be modified to satisfy Uncle Sam with a little effort. The seller calls this car the "last brand-new Enzo in existence" and with 175 miles on the clock, that may be a true statement. You can head over to eBay Motors for a closer look if you're feeling spendy.
