Excellent condition. I am 3rd owner and have invested many dollars in this car. Mechanically, the car is amazingly solid. It has had the timing
belt service, water pump, a/c compressor, motor mounts, front brakes (have rear pads), new tires, new battery, new wiper blades all within last
4,000 miles. Eighteen months ago this car was repainted by best shop in area. All exterior components were removed including hood, bumpers,
air dam, tail lights, head lights, marker lights, mirrors, door handles and locks, quarter windows, moldings and badges, etc. After painting all
weather stripping, seals, moldings, badges, were replaced with new. The finish on this car is beautiful (with no paint lines due to taped off
areas). $7,600 spent on repaint and parts. Mileage is original as verified by CarFax report.
The interior is very good and nearly all original. The steering wheel and shift boot have be professionally recovered in leather. The dash does
have some cracks around the defroster vents but not into the bulk of the dash. One side bolster on the driver's seat has some fading
due to sliding against it on entry and exit. There are no tears, scratches. Carpet is very, very good all through. Rear seat is excellent as is cargo
area.
This is a very high end example of preservation and restoration. Car runs/drives great. Very solid throughout. Low mileage. All mechanical work
done by local Porsche dealership. I have set a low reserve on this car. Have original keys (2 ignition, alarm, wheel lock),
owner's manual, spare tire, jack, and tool kit. Cover King custom cover included. This car is a steal at this price.
This car is being advertised in additional media. Seller reserves right to sell vehicle prior to end of auction.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
Meet the man that discovered and restored the oldest existing Porsche
Tue, 11 Mar 2014Luciano Rupolo is an absolutely fascinating gentleman. He was born in France but spent nearly his entire life in Italy as an auto mechanic running his own shop. His grandfather and father instilled a love of sports cars in him that he carried on by historic racing in Italy for decades. He saw his life-long automotive passion repaid when he found and restored the car that might have been the first Porsche registered for the road.
You can spot in his garage a split-window Corvette, Ferrari 250 GTE and other exotics, but Rupolo's most interesting automotive story concerns his Iso Grifo Competizione (pictured above). The sports coupe was found in the Canary Islands as little more than a shell, but Rupolo got help from a prestigious source for its restoration. The result is a motoring masterpiece.
Rupolo is a fantastic storyteller with a captivating, tale to tell. Settle in, scroll down and watch the bittersweet documentary about his life with one of the first Porsches.
