2010 Porsche 911 Carrera S on 2040-cars
West Hartford, Connecticut, United States
More infos regarding my car at: nathanielnggarman@ukdealers.com .
Very rare and desirable color combination. Dark metallic blue with FULL leather in sand beige. You can see the
options list in the picture (PASM, heated seats, heated steering wheel, Bose, etc.). Over $103K MSRP when new.
I am second owner and purchased the car in 2013 with just under 13K miles as a certified pre-owned vehicle from
Porsche of Nashua NH. Warranty is transferable and good until Sept. 30th, so you can buy with the peace of mind
in having a car still under warranty. I have driven it about 17K miles and have had no issues with the car and
have had all service performed by Porsche of Danbury. Non-smoker, no accidents or damage and I have never driven
in snow. When I purchased the car I had an invisible bra installed which covers front bumper, full hood and
fenders, mirrors, headlights, inner arches, rocker panels, door cups. A couple small scratches (rear bumper guard
and a small one on sunroof - see pictures plus a small indent in roof). Car is in excellent shape. Clean Carfax.
This is the last of the 911's with a naturally aspirated flat 6 engine and hydraulic steering (better than the
current electric steering on the 991's). 6 speed shifts smoothly and adds to the enjoyment and driver
involvement. I have taken the car on trips up to 7-8 hours and it is a very comfortable highway cruiser. This
is the 997.2 model with 385 horsepower direct injection engine. 15 more than a new Carrera.

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Here's your tough question of the day: Would you rather drive a new Porsche Cayman GTS or a slightly older, 996-era Porsche 911 GT3? Certainly, both cars have their plusses. The Cayman is the more modern proposition, sure, but the GT3 is, well, a GT3. So yes, it's a tough decision.
If you're one of the lucky souls that have to make that choice, then this video from Evo should prove pretty helpful. It's a track battle, starring Jethro Bovingdon with a new GTS and an old GT3.
Calling the GTS "fantastically agile" and "fast, but it's also hilariously good fun," Bovingdon bangs home a solid lap time of 1:05.2 before switching to the GT3. It's remarkable to see just how dated the 996-generation 911 looks after viewing the newer Porsche, and from where we sit, it's further proof that the old car's headlights are something that's best forgotten. Styling qualms aside, though, can the GT3 keep up with its racy younger cousin?
Porsche names new motorsport chief
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Though it may have expanded into crossovers and sedans, Porsche is still a company with racing at its heart. You might even argue that Cayenne and Panamera sales only serve to fund the company's motorsports activities. Competition-spec 911 coupes still make up a large portion of the grid in any GT racing series, and those activities are presided over by the Porsche GT division (separate from its LMP1 program), which has just announced a changing of the guard.
Porsche's GT unit - which is responsible both for racing models like the 911 RSR and road-going models like the 911 GT3 - has until now been steered by Hartmut Kristen (pictured above, left) in his capacity as Vice President of Motorsport at Porsche AG. During his ten-year tenure, Kristen gave birth to the RS Spyder that competed in the American Le Mans Series and the pioneering 911 GT3 R Hybrid. He also fostered what Porsche characterizes as "arguably the most comprehensive youth development program in motor racing" and saw the marque return to Le Mans last year with a dominant 1-2 class victory.
Kristen, now 59 years old, is leaving the German automaker, but will remain an advisor to the company's R&D department. Taking over as VP of Motorsport will be Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, who has until now been head of the 918 Spyder project (a responsibility he will continue). Walliser (pictured above, right) was previously Porsche's general manager for motorsport strategies and will now be responsible for Porsche's GT projects on and off the track, while Fritz Enzinger continues at the helm of the LMP1 program in pursuit of better results next year than the 919 Hybrid achieved at Le Mans last month.
