Q: Porsche Performance Questions?
I have a few Porsche Motors Cars. I have a 2001 Boxster, 2007 911 GT2, 1994 911 C4, and a 1967 911. I was want to know if there are any superchargers or turbocharger kits for a standard 2.7L Boxster. I know many people view these as just beginner cars, but I enjoy driving them around the countryside. I have a lot of hills and corners to drive so it makes the Boxster fun. It just lacks the power for those straightaways that I do encounter. Any other performance ideas??? Thanks in Advance.
A: There are kits available, though there is always going to be a question as to the wisdom or practicality of such an upgrade. Even more so in your case: if you are in the mood for wanting to open it up with more power, you might want to consider driving the GT2 instead?
Q: How much would it cost for a 911?
Yea I'm looking at this 2001 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 for 26,000 dollars, how much could I negotiate this down to? 23.6k for dealer trade in, can I get lower than that?
A: That is a good price.
I worked at a car dealership a few months ago.
We had an 1999 Porsche Carrera 2 for $31,000.
The one you are looking at is cheaper and newer and has AWD, which is supposed to cost more.
Q: Jaguar XJR 2001 model X308?
Is this considered to be a cool car? I have seen it in black driving around my town. I saw it drive off from the lights and completly beat a porsche 911. Is that possible for a Jaguar saloon or has it got a non-jaguar engine in it? Many thanks.
P.s It looks awsome in black and I love the wheels.
A: i used to drive for jag dealer, the four litre version did 0-60 in 5.3 seconds, its a supercharged vee 8 engine, built by ford when they owned jaguar. The 4.2 litre is a touch quicker, top speed 155. they have amazing acelleration at any revs

degree

Whenever the time may be for you to purchase or lease a new vehicle, keep
this information in mind. You might want to give more consideration to a car
manufactured by an American-owned and / or American based company. Apart
from Hyundai and Volkswagen, the foreign car companies contributed nothing
at all to the citizens of the United States ... It's OK for these companies
to take money out of this country, but it is apparently not acceptable to
return some in a time of crisis. I believe we should not forget things like
this. Say thank you in a way that gets their attention...
A: thanks for posting that. I'm a union Ironworker and only buy American (chevy) If you pulled up on a job site in a rice burner it would get trashed.
