I’ve heard rumblings (along with grumblings) about a possible comeback of the Porsche 914. And by comeback, I mean re-release. It kind of reminds me of the year we started seeing 280Z’s start to disappear. What I heard was that Nissan was buying them up to rebuild, then re-release. Kind of a cool concept although […]
I Think I’m In Love
March 19, 2009 by
I just got back from picking up a car being worked on at Gran Prix Imports in Wilsonville, Oregon. By the way, if you don’t know who these guys are, read this post: Dealership of the Century. While I was in there, I decided to take a quick walk through the showroom. “Why not?” I […]
Porsche 911 4S Pon Edition
March 19, 2009 by
Now this is a pretty awesome thing. I didn’t realize it, but Pon Porsche Import in the Netherlands was the first company to import Porsches. Their first Porsches arrived in 1949. The dealership in Leusden is still going strong today. To celebrate 60 years of importing into the Dutch market, Porsche has released the 911 […]
Tempting Porsches #11
March 18, 2009 by
Time for a couple more Porsches that I would buy in a heartbeat (or maybe two or three at most) if I had the money. As always, I’m sure I’m a bit of a glutton for punishment with one of them since it’s a bit older and probably a bit on the rougher side (you […]
A Tale of Two Porsche Pre-Purchase Inspections
March 17, 2009 by
Everyone always says you should get an inspection done on any used Porsche you’re considering before buying. The car can be expensive to purchase and even more expensive to maintain, so why take chances. While looking for a Porsche a few months ago, I decided to take one of the cars I was considering in […]
Drive the Porsche of Your Dreams
March 16, 2009 by
Ever think that owning the Porsche of your dreams won’t ever happen? After all, we’re talking in some cases about a car stretching upwards of $200,000. Heck, for a lot of us, thinking about buying a run-of-the-mill car in the $15k to $20k range can seem more than a bit daunting. I read an interesting […]
Billionaire’s Exclusive Porsche
March 11, 2009 by
BSMotoring.com (uh, that stands for Business Standard Motoring, not the other BS) had a cool blog post titled “A Billion to One” where they talked about what a billionaire might drive to stand out from the crowd. Actually more specifically what a billionaire might have done to his/her ride to stand out from the crowd. […]
Porsche 911 Buyer’s Guide Review
March 10, 2009 by
I just finished reading through the Porsche 911 Buyer’s Guide by Randy Leffingwell. I’ve actually had the book for a while, but previously only referred to particular sections related to 911s I was considering buying. Now you may write this off as not applicable to you unless you’re in the market for a used 911. […]
Porsche Picture: Customized 911
March 10, 2009 by
Check out this car I parked across the street from in the Giveaway Porsche. I was in downtown Portland and had to snap a picture of this beauty. I love the yellow color and yellow accented black rims. Here’s a link to the company highlighted on the lower portion of the car: Matrix Integrated. Looks […]
