Up for auction is this 1972 porsche 914. The porsche recently received a bare metal restoration. To achieve this level of a quality build we started with a mint California non collision zero rust low mileaged car. All doors, hoods, bumpers, interior, drive train, glass and suspension where removed. The porsche was then stripped to bar metal throughout and received three coats of epoxy primer. The porsche then received it's factory color L96D silver metallic two stage paint. No detail was missed with this beautiful repaint close attention was applied to the engine compartment, inside front hood/luggage compartment, rear hood compartment, door post, under side of hoods and door jams. Extensive block sanding gave this porsche a factory straight body no waves or imperfections. The body gaps are true and consistent all the way around. The porsche received all new interior as well as all new rubber throughout. The porsche also received a new front windshield with the green upper tint giving the porsche a new factory look. The two door locks, front hood lock, rear trunk lock and glove box lock all work properly with one factory porsche key. The porsche handles well with newly installed top of the line all four Bilstein shocks/struts and new perfomance rear springs. Porsche also received four new Yokohama P195/60 R15 tires for a true sport handling. The stock factory engine was rebuilt with new high compression pistons and cylinders, rebuilt heads (Car Craft), high volume oil pump, new gaskets, new German muffler, powder coated sheet metal, all new injection rubber. Engine was assembled to factory specs including all heater system in working order. The engine runs like a factory new one plenty of smooth torque. Transmission shift flawlessly into all gears without issues no strange noises. Transmission can down shift from fifth gear to first without grinding. The braking system works well with quick responsive stopping. All the electrical works as it should throughout. This is a must see car in person there is just to much to list hundreds of man hours involved in the restoration of this highly collectable beauty.

Watch this Koenigsegg CCX hit 211 mph on a runway, outpacing McLaren's P1
Tue, 03 Jun 2014Vmax200 in in England organizes events where those who care to show up with a supercar can run them down the two-mile runway at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground. Evo attended the latest event, bringing an impressively green Lamborghini Aventador to test its girth and gaping vents against other precious metals like the McLaren P1 and F1, Ferrari F12 Berlinetta and Enzo, a Porsche Carrera GT and enough 911 Turbos to start a dealership. Speaking of those Porsches, nine of the top ten slots in the top speed competition are claimed by modified 911 Turbos.
A monochrome Swede ruled them all, though, a black-and-white Koenigsegg CCX setting fire to the speed trap run after run, hitting 211 miles per hour at its quickest. It was followed by, surprise, a 911 GT2 modified by 9E that did 210 mph. You can watch the EVO video below, GT Spirit has a bigger breakdown of the day, and we've included another vid showing the tandem launch of the CCX and McLaren F1.
2014 Porsche Panamera arrives with new E-Hybrid, long-wheelbase models
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Porsche will officially unveil the refreshed 2014 Panamera at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month, and there's a whole lot in store for the updated model, far beyond the minimal styling tweaks you see here. Sure, there's a new fascia with more prominent LED lighting (including full LED headlamps) and the rump has been tweaked ever so slightly, but the big news for 2014 concerns what's underneath that rakish skin.
First up, Porsche will now offer a Panamera S E-Hybrid model - a plug-in hybrid that builds on the technology first introduced in the Panamera S Hybrid that we tested in 2011. For this new application, a more powerful electric motor and higher-performance battery have been fitted (official specs have not been released just yet), and Porsche says the battery can be recharged in just two and a half hours when the car is plugged in to a 240-volt outlet, and the charging (as well as other vehicle data) can be monitored via a new Porsche Car Connect app available for Android and iOS devices.
The E-Hybrid will have an all-electric driving range of "greater than 20 miles" and will be able to travel at speeds up to 84 miles per hour solely on electric power.
Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?
Wed, 29 Jan 2014In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
