Great turn key hard to find unmolested original car with low miles.
this 1974 Porsche Euro 914 2.0 is in terrific condition and was very well cared for, unfortunately the owner passed away.
It is an original silver car with only one repaint. Always a garaged California car. The odometer works and shows 27,000.
The body is rust free and no sign of accidents or damage although there is a small depression ding on rear right quarter near the turn signal see photos.
It is very complete and everything works electrically, lights, turn signals, emergency warning, lighter ect..
Mechanically excellent, the original engine maintains its fuel injection and starts up on the first turn of the crank. It has a super nice tone thru a Monza style sport exhaust system. It has a really nice rumble to it...

It has fairly new tires all around on original 2.0 Fuchs alloy (5)wheels in excellent condition.
The 5 speed transmission shifts very smoothly in all gears at any speed with no grinding.
The GA code engine runs excellent with plenty of power, and is clean and tidy. Appears to be a low miler.
The battery was relocated to the front trunk to avoid any potential "hell hole" damage to develop.
All lights, fog lights, gauges and clock,  function as they should. The oem lenses look awesome.
The Targa top is in excellent condition and still fits nicely in the rear trunk over the spare Fuchs.
Body is strait smooth original panels with beautiful tight gaps with minimal chips. paint is 9/10.
The bumpers are strait and rubber tops are like new, no warping or chips.
Doors close tight and windows roll up quickly. All locks and keys function.
Original rubber seals in great condition, front widshield has a small spider crack on lower left side.
.
The interior is original except for the very comfortable Scheel type sport seat, perfectly holds you in tight turns.
The dash has some cracks but is still solid, it has a dash mat covering.
There was no records only the owners manual, a maintenance book and a tool kit.(included with the sale)
Title is free and clear. Collector blue plate NOT included.

The car is very quick and tight, the suspension feels very nice and handles wonderfully on mountain drives where this car really demonstrates its handling superiority. A real enjoyable experience and the best 914 I have ever driven, bar none.
Never mind that the 73-74 2.0's are rising fast in value, just buy it to drive it fast instead.

A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan

Wed, 27 Nov 2013



He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.

Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.

Hyundai, Porsche top J.D. Power APEAL study

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Just as they did in the Initial Quality Study, Porsche and Hyundai have taken the premium and non-premium crown, respectively, for the 2014 J.D. Power APEAL study. This is the tenth consecutive year for that Porsche has been rated the best premium make in the APEAL study, which attempts to figure out how pleased owners are with their purchases. For 2014, it asked 86,000 owners of MY2014 cars to rate their vehicles in 77 different categories 90 days after their initial purchase. The resulting figures were plugged in deliver the APEAL score, which is rated on a 1,000-point scale.
The industry average sits at 794 points for 2014, although that's a one-percent decline over last year's rating. In this year's study, premium brands averaged 840 out of 1,000, while non-premium makes average 785. For their part, Porsche netted an impressive 882 points, while Hyundai earned an 804. Interestingly, only four non-premium brands (Hyundai, Ram, Volkswagen and Mini) finished above the industry average for 2014.
It's also interesting to see the clear delineation between premium and non-premium brands, with an eight-point gap between the non-premium champ, Hyundai, and the lowest-rated premium brand, Volvo.
