Feedback And Reviews Of Running A 2019 Porsche 911 Coupe
One of the jobs I've needed to do on my Porsche 911 was to investigate and repair the air conditioning that wasn't working. It's a common issue on the 996 model and generally due to the air conditioning condensers becoming corroded and damaged by road debris. On investigation that was indeed the case with my car with one condenser showing dark patches over half the surface indicating where the gas/oil mixture had leaked. I took the car to my local garage to get the air con checked, I assumed it was empty but wanted to be sure that I wouldn't release any gas by opening the system. As expected there was no gas in there so it was safe to get started. The first step is to remove the front bumper, a fairly easy job with the removal of various screws in different positions around the front area. Once the bumper is off the job is straightforward, remove the plastic air scoop housings in front of the radiators by undoing five Torx T25 screws and you now have access to the condenser and radiators. This needs to be done on each side - there are 2 condensers and radiators on the 996 and Boxster. REMEMBER - before you these steps ensure the system is degassed and has no pressure. When you have access to the condenser it's just a 6mm bolt that attaches the pipes to the condenser. Make sure that you support the pipes as you undo them to avoid damage. Once the pipes are removed it's a simple case of removing 2 more Torx T25 screws and the condenser comes off the car. Clean up the radiator of any debris and the new condenser can be fitted ensuring that you use new O rings for a good seal.
Total amount is RM465,000 for all 9 cars. The Mazda 6 I took 80% loan and the BMW 525i E61 Touring Wagon I took 70% loan. Imagine, RM465,000 buys you not 1 car but 9 (yes NINE) cars. I think it's SILLY for a cousin of mine who bought Brand new full spec Cayenne Hybrid for RM740,000. Hey, he paid RM275,000 EXTRA on 1 (ONE) Brand new SUV which bounds to Depreciates to RM270,000 after 5 years. RM270,000 only. This translates to RM480,000 depreciation. That's like 36% retained value in 5 years. The depreciation amount I can buy 9 (NINE) CARS! Out of the 9 cars, 4 of them were Classics and NEVER Depreciates. In fact, 3 of them, the Toyota MR2 SW20 3S-GTE, Porsche 911 993 and Mini Cooper 1.3i will Appreciate in value for the next 5 years. END OF MY DREAM GARAGE 2013. Thanks for having the time and patience to read this blog entry.

Although the new 911 captured most of the limelight on the Porsche stand at the recent Los Angeles Auto Show, the German company also revealed a track model called the 911 GT2 RS Clubsport. 鈥淔or the upcoming years, our customers will not only race the GT2 RS Clubsport during open track days but also at international motor racing events. We are currently holding very productive talks with the race organizer SRO,鈥?says Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, Porsche鈥檚 Vice President Motorsport and GT Cars. The 3,064-pound Clubsport, like the street-legal 911 GT2 RS, has Porsche Stability Management (PSM), traction control and ABS, but a switch on its center console allows the driver to adjust each for varying needs at individual tracks. These systems also can be completely shut off, depending upon conditions at each track. Further setting the new Porsche 911 GT2 RS Clubsport apart are a carbon-fiber steering wheel and color instrument display, both taken from the roadgoing Porsche 911 GT3 R model. While air conditioning is an unexpected luxury, the racing bucket seat (from Recaro) and 6-point safety harness are not. 478,000, before destination and import fees.
Along with safety, Volvo is known for its estate cars. While the brand might have moved into new areas with its ever-growing range of upmarket SUVs, the firm hasn鈥檛 forgotten about its core products. The latest to join the line-up is the mid-sized premium V60 estate. This is a car that offers class, practicality, efficiency, tech and performance; an appealing package then. But there are already a number of rival models delivering exactly this combination, and the Audi A4 Avant is a perfect example. Audi also has a long history with estates, and in this closely fought class the V60 faces a fight to overcome its German rival. While SUVs are the niche that鈥檚 now become the norm, they鈥檙e not for everyone and family estate cars like these are generally better to drive than their higher-riding alternatives. The victor here will have to deliver exactly this, but mix it with a useful level of usability.
