BGB Motorsports. You’ll have to ask for a quote though. It comes with a transmission.

This is correct. If you’re not splitting the case, figure about $7K to rebuild an engine. If you’re splitting the case, figure as high as $9K.

It doesn’t cost $20k to rebuild a Porsche engine. Jesus you can get a brand new 991 3.8L with transmission swapped into a 987.1 Cayman for $28k ALL IN.

I’m the worst possible reader for this column in that (a) I’ve owned a 996 C2, a 996 TT, and a 997 C2S, and have my own opinions, and (b) am so technically incompetent that the most advanced work I’ve ever done on my own car is swapping out the amber side markers for clear ones (or perhaps the one time I changed my…

Hmm. I think around 25k you could probably get a well sorted 996 and save the time. Normally I'm with you on these but I don't see it here.

And any actual, competent technician would refuse this job.

As clickbait as it gets.

Musk did offer Hotz a couple million dollars to develop this under Tesla, but Hotz refused because he’s not doing this for the money.

This guy build is own car, now the car companies hate him.

Lauda still has the answer:

These are good suggestions, but I’m not totally convinced I can do a year with an NSX or an E30 M3. I think the readers would get bored.

There is no other R8 listing even remotely near this number even with equivalent or near equivalent mileage, something is very off with this listing. The average R8 this age even with some miles on it is in the $80,000 or so range.

Tav, I love what you do, but after digging a little deeper it seems this particular example was a bit of an anomaly. Perhaps because it is in Germany. Looks like all of the others currently for sale on eBay (I did not look at other sites) all start at mid $60s and up. Still reasonable value, but whomever snatched this…

Kind of alarming when think how some political leaders think the world is supposed to end in Armageddon based on religious teachings.

“Since some 500,000 cars are affected here, this alone will end up setting Volkswagen back about $500 million just to start”

It is one guard rail manufacturer and the claim is they changed the endcap design without filing the required government paperwork and testing. Last I read testing shows their design change meets the applicable government standard. So it’s typical government outrage over paperwork.

I’d wager that most, if not all, potential GT3 RS customers have already had one or more base 911 Carreras already.

There was no insurance, and that’s how your auto accident lawyers get money in person v. person cases. If they sue some middle-aged lady on disability with a giant V Star-shaped dent in the side of their car, what money can they get? There are no significant assets. You can’t garnish SSDI. The only recourse at this…
