1987 Porsche 911 Carrera on 2040-cars
Hermitage, Tennessee, United States
This car drives out beautifully. I have put about 1500 miles on the car after doing a major service on it (valve adjustment, oil
change, filters, spark plugs), and the car hasn't skipped a beat. Driving the car it is very smooth and tight on
the road. The power comes on smooth and strong without hesitation. Car starts up right away every time. Steering is
very tight and the 911 drives straight and firm. The G50 transmission lives up to its reputation and shifts
flawlessly up and down. Clutch feels great as well and the brakes feel like new. Inside the car, the interior is
still soft and full of life...the AC worked for awhile after it was charged but there seems to be a leak in the
system that is noticeable a week after charge. I can not find any rust on the car. This is an excellent original
car that is just a pleasure to drive. All this....rare colors combined with the well desired G50 transmission make
this late model Carrera a perfect fit for a collector or someone interested in a true classic 911. Details:
Mechanical: -Stock 3.2 which is known as one of Porsche's bulletproof engines. Engine is very strong and smooth. No
known smoke issues other than the typical 911 startup puff. Valves were just adjusted along with oil change, fuel
filter, spark plugs and general oil leaks addressed. Case is sealed up well. The engine has turbo valve covers and
cat bypass pipe as well. Exterior: -Rare color which comes off as a slight purple/blue. It is a metallic known as
Cassis Red from the factory. The paint shines up very well, does not appear to be any rust on the car externally or
underneath.

24 Hours of Le Mans an on-and-off love affair
Mon, 24 Jun 2013There was little usual about this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans - intermittent rain in the weeks before the race meant cars didn't get on track as much as they wanted, and intermittent rain during the race meant cars went off track a lot more than they wanted. The race started with a wet track, and one of the records broken because of the random downpours was the number of times the safety car led the field - 11 times this year - although the record of two hours and 53 minutes of lapping behind the safety car, set in 2011, was not eclipsed.
None of that served to dampen the action. With little more than an hour left in the race there were cars still only a few seconds apart fighting for position, leads still changing because of pit stops and everyone drafting anyone they could.
Things didn't go the usual way up front, either - well, not exactly...
Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911
Thu, 26 Sep 2013According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.
Corvette gets slidey with Britain's best performance cars
Sat, 18 Oct 2014Autocar wants to find Britain's best driver's car, and it's challenging a murderers' row of some of the world's best performance vehicles to find out, including the latest Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. All of them were therefore assembled at the Castle Combe Circuit to find a winner.
If it wants to take the crown from this pack of mostly European competitors, the 'Vette has to beat some steep competition. Its challengers include monsters like the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Ariel Atom 3.5R and Jaguar F-Type Coupe. As a further hurdle for the winner to clear, Autocar also has last year's champ among the fighters - the Porsche 911 GT3.
Even if you're not at all interested in the C7, there's still something here for practically any fan of fast cars. The competitors include relative oddities among the pack like the Renault Mégane RS Trophy and Alfa Romeo 4C. Plus, Autocar has some well-positioned microphones that let you hear the Atom wailing like a banshee and the roar of the 458 Speciale. Check out the video to see which one of these all-stars takes home the award this year.
