The Toy Barn of Dublin Presents:

2008 Porsche 911 GT3 Absolutely stunning condition, never tracked, always serviced, and never wrecked. If you're looking for a GT3 like no other on the market, you've found it. The Toy Barn is thrilled to offer this STUNNING 2008 GT3, finished in Carrera White over Black leather/alcantara. This car is nearly flawless, absolutely beautiful, and has several reasons to consider purchasing: History: This GT3 has only 4k miles, and is absolutely pristine. We purchased this car from the second owner, who bought it in 2011 as a Certified Pre-owned Porsche, and drove it less than 700 miles over the course of his ownership, treating more as a collectible than a performance car. It was never tracked or abused, and always serviced and fully maintained. The annual service was due when we purchased it, so we just completed that here at our facility in our Performance Center. We also ran the DME report, as pictured below, and I'm not sure it gets any better than that. The Carfax report shows a clean and clear 2-owner history, and the car has never been wrecked or had any paintwork. The front bumper and the front portion of the hood and fenders have all been wrapped in 3M protection, and you can see without a doubt after one walkaround of this car how well and easy it's been treated (rare for a GT3). The service is fresh, the finish is like new, and the car is unbelievable. We sell and service Porsches on a regular basis, and this is certainly the best example of a GT3 I've seen. It's gorgeous. Condition: As already mentioned, this car is pristine. The paint shows beautifully, and the car has a clean Carfax report as shown in the link provided below. The 19" GT3 wheels are excellent and damage free, and the Toyo Proxes R888 tires have most of their life remaining. Overall, if the exterior of this 911 isn't a 10, it's a strong 9.8 out of 10. I'd be happy to walk the car over the phone for you to tell you exactly what I see. On the inside, the interior matches the condition of the exterior. The black leather/alcatara looks nearly new, and is complimented by serious driver's equipment; Alcantara shift knob, alcantara brake handle, leather with alcantara seating surfaces, Sound Package Plus, Fire extinguisher, Heated seats, and more. Overall, the interior is a solid 9.5 out of 10, with the only imperfection I could find being only the slightest signs of wear on the driver's seat, simply from being driven. Conclusion and points to consider: I've been fortunate to be in and out of, and sell numerous Porsches over the years. Seldom do I get the opportunity to get my hands on a GT3 of ANY generation, and when I do, there's always the chance of getting a car with "stories". THIS is NOT that car. This is just as described, and quite frankly, VERY rare. This is an opportunity to get a two-owner, never wrecked or abused, always serviced GT3 that could seriously be labled a "creampuff" (I hate to refer to a GT3 as that) WITH ONLY 4k MILES and with CERAMIC BRAKES!!! If you're looking for a low mile, one owner, perfect history, white/black GT3 that doesn't break the bank, THIS IS IT. You may not find another one like it. It will be sold with 2 keys and all of the original books and manuals, as well as a copy of the original sticker and all of the Certified Pre-owned Porsche documentation. Please call me with any questions you may have. This GT3 has the following:

Black Leather
6 speed manual transmission
Ceramic Composite Brakes
19" wheels, exterior color
Self dim mirrors & rain sensor
Heated seats
Bi-Xenon lights
Sound Package Plus
Floor Mats
Thicker steering wheel in leather
Aluminum Foot rest
Books and BOTH keys
3M front bumper and partial hood protection

MUCH MORE!

Malaise Era All-Stars

Fri, 17 May 2013

A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.

Porsche revisits the 911's dirty side with rally history film

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

It might not be a coincidence that there are rumors of Porsche revealing a safari version of the 911 at April's Beijing Motor Show, just as the Dakar Rally is about to begin. Adding fuel to the dusty desert fire is a just-released official video of Jeff Zwart driving the Porsche 953 that Jacky Ickx drove to victory in the 1984 edition of the race.
In the video, the seven-time Pikes Peak International Hill Climb winner talks about how he grew up with the 911; it wasn't only the car he learned to drive in, it was his choice of racecar no matter whether the course was tarmac or the dirty stuff.
You can decide for yourself if these recent events are mere coincidence while you enjoy the 953's exhaust note in the video below. If you've got the time to see the 953 during its race-conquering drive and find out what the ersatz Paris-Dakar Rally used to be, we've also included a broadcast of that 1984 race below as well. Fast-forward to 19:44 to see the Porsches cross the open dessert and 29:09 to watch one of them tackle the dunes.
