離別 - 是另一個新的開始

台北難得的好天氣，空氣中卻充滿了淡淡的離愁... 新車主是英國Prodigy的主唱，有一台同樣顏色的964 c2，在溝通的過程中，我相信他會是很好的新車主...

Singer Design - 911 Hot Rod

from Colin Belton:

The car is based on a G50 Carrera 3.2 platform, powered by a 9m Racing 3.82 litre 400+hp engine on Motec engine management through a 6 speed close ratio gearbox. The 17" wheels (9 & 11) hide servo'd Turbo/RSR brakes, double adjustable coil over shocks & adjustable anti-roll bars - essentially the chassis will use all the best-of-the-best chassis parts from 35 years of the Porsche aftermarket development. Revised heating & a/c, electric power steering, traction control & other options are currently being considered for the production car. The interior of the prototype featured custom built early style roll-top bucket seats but with full electric controls. The bodywork is probably of the greatest interest to most since it is absolutely unique to this car. Using the help of friends in the motor industry, Rob & the team clay modeled the arch profiles, fenders, side skirts, front & rear bumpers & engine lid spoiler (on a 964 pop-up); then took carbon moulds from the clay buck in order to make the panels on the car. The details in the lines is exquisite and the panel fits exemplary by any 911 standards, these were the best panels & have ever seen.  Some of the features which are less obvious include the following, all custom designed & manufactured for this car are: Hella Bi-xenon headlights with dummy chromed carbon reflector & shroud & clear perspex "lens" 1 piece front indicator/fog lamp unit with chromed moulded housing 1 piece chrome moulded rear light with early style lenses Billet fuel & oil filler caps, oil filler on rhs quarter into modified 993 oil tank "Ducktail" pop-up spoiler with bright annodised CNC machined billet alloy grille Functional billet alloy door mirror with custom moulded quarter light glass (yes, glass)

ENGINE • 3.82-liter normally aspirated flat-six 8000 rpm limit • 9M (Ninemeister) machined from solid cylinder heads • 9M individual throttle bodies • 9M 103mm pistons and cylinders • 9M valve springs and retainers • 9M camshaft • 997 GT3 crankshaft • 997 GT3R oil pump • 997 GT3 titanium connecting rods • Motec M800 ECU with data logging, launch/traction control • Lightweight wiring loom • Lightweight stainless steel header / heat exchanger system with 100 cell cats, Singer stainless steel muffler • 425 BHP / 340 lb. ft. torque • 0-60 mph – 3.9 seconds • 0-100 mph – 8.5 seconds • Top speed 170+ mph TRANSMISSION • Getrag G50 six-speed close ratio gearbox • Lightweight flywheel and carbon twin-plate clutch SUSPENSION • Multi-adjustable remote reservoir Moton shock absorbers with Eibach coil-over springs • Jerry Woods Enterprises / Smart Racing Products multi-adjustable sway-bars and suspension componentry for ultimate fine-tuned road and track performance

2008年一篇關於氣冷老保的討論 - 給收藏老保的車友參考

A君: 要買911要多做些功課!尤其的是像964這樣上了年紀的車! 好奇的問為何要收藏964 3.6 RS美規!你知道964 RSA(就是美規)跟一般964的差異嗎? 有研究過一般964跟964 RS 3.6的差異嗎?上網找找資料,或許不會把964RSA當成收藏的目標! 別問我原因,以前每當我Po出RSA跟964的差異,老被車主罵!964RS台灣不多,RSA就多了不少,被罵的機率就大很多!真要打算買,上網查些資料,買車時被騙的機率小的多! 我的回覆: 964 RSA 新車價比 Carrera 2便宜一萬美金, 而RS 歐規約與965新車同價, 看看現在的997 Turbo 與GT3 RS...但16年後的今天, 964 Carrera2 在美國約2萬多美金, 而964 RSA約3至4萬美金, RS 歐規在歐洲約7萬至9萬歐元間... A君: 不順道解釋當初新車為何比一般的carrera便宜?又為何歐規的RS跟turbo同價!? 美國的中古車決定在量,那也是為何RSA在新車比C2便宜,但現在卻價昂! 但若有人把RSA跟一般的carrera 2的差異點出,會發現這樣的中古價差異時在有點令人買不下手! 存看價格,RSA的確比一般964來的有"價值"! 但除了價格呢?車的本質上的差異? 我的回覆: 現在在歐洲市場找964RS已慢了一步, 去年到今年已漲了一倍, 日本市場也隨後跟進, rs 3.8已至15萬歐元, 前提是要有人要賣...8年前我在美國脫手一部1973 RS M471 real lightweight 約8萬美元, 現在都漲一倍還不一定找的到車, 在台灣是古董車沙漠, 沒有汽車文化修養, 只追求最新.最貴, 與大陸相比好不到那去, club meet 一字排開是997...玩車要了解車廠歷史及精神才有意義...若有人想對964 RS, RSA, Euro Cup 及 USA Cup的不同點, 請PM我, 老外已整理出一份清單, 我可以提供。 A君: 價錢來看,台灣確實玩中古的porsche是便宜許多的! 但還是有人收藏骨董車!但頗多玩骨董車的真的愛那車嗎? 就是要找量少,有"搞頭"的! 就像你提到當初RSA比carrera便宜,但現在卻反過來RSA價昂! 我有965,對這樣的現象實在不敢苟同!說難聽的RSA不過就是carrera的陽春版!RS多個A差很多! 所以我聽到有人要找RS的美規板來收藏時在訝異!老美當時恨透Porsche玩他們!一半的porsche賣到美國,但美國出的RS跟歐規的是2碼子事! 但時至今日,竟然減配備carrera(我實在不願冠上RS的名號),價格竟然炒的如此高! 那些人真在玩車嗎?若今日像這樣的入門者告知我要買RSA(我從她發言猜根本不知RSA跟964的差異),你會建議買更貴的RSA不去選一般的carrera嗎? 但前面提過,就"價格"來看,RSA現在確實比一般964有價值! 但對一位真的只想體驗911的玩家,應該不是只看價格來決定車的價值吧!? 多打些,RSA最後還賣不掉,還降價出售!誰要買布椅的911?(非RS的SPG椅子,就是一般911改成布椅) 不過就是多了個"RSA"的logo,加上數量不多,當初的燙手山芋,現在拜"玩家"的炒作下,比carrera硬是貴上一大截! 我的回覆: 我完全同意您的看法, 在1992美國經濟條件不好, PORSCHE財務狀況不佳,能多賣一台算一台, 連USA Cup都流產, RSA 及 USA Cup都滯銷及降價出售, 與現在賣一台賺一台的PORSCHE不可同日而語。在商言商,如何COST DOWN再搞個MARKETING NAME促銷,RSA誕生了...只在美國市場(便宜又大碗的心態)...原廠給它厚重的SPORT SEAT布椅, DELETE天窗, COST DOWN兼LIGHT WIGHT的固定尾翼, DELETE後座...Euro RS是反向操作, LIGHT WEIGHT RECARO, LIGHT WEIGHT GLASS, ALUMINUM HOOD, LIGHT WEIGHT DOOR PANEL, 手搖窗, 魚眼避震器...是一台與CUP CAR SPEC很接近的街車,當初被媒体罵的一文不值,現在被体捧上天加市場抄做...供需問題, 如同RSA,只有美國人自己能認同那樣市場, 對996 gt3 MK1(限量版)流口水, 於是原廠給了美國MK2, 10年後再看看MARKET VALUE吧...在商言商... 尤其美規歐規之配備差異表... B君: 老保又不是第一次框老美了...以前GT3不給老美選CLUBSPORT還硬給天窗...我就覺得有夠大小眼... A君: 所以每個人的角度不同!為何對GT3 MK1流口水!?友人也是開MKI的clubsport! 他也買來收藏,原因不外乎這"限量"1500台!但比較過MKI跟MK2的差異嗎? Porsche確實修理了買MKI的車迷,一堆車迷對於Porsche信誓旦旦的說只生產1500台,相信又是台日後可以保有身價的車,但卻被Porsche打了耳光~!為了老美,推出MK2!別說10年後,在此就可以跟你說MK1身價道十一定比較高!從RSA看來,量決定一切! 又回到原點,價高的車一定較好!RSA根本不能比!但GT3的MKI跟MKII可是很相近的車! 我前一陣子一直想入手MK2,友人說幹麻不買MK1?到時車有"價值"的多! 我很直得回他,我車買回來開的,不是拿來擺的! MK2為了紅線往後延點,一般車廠的作法就寫寫電腦!但MK2卻把整個引擎內的零件全給翻新!(我比對過零件光碟)(997GT3也是如此)! 馬力增加不多,卻看見Porsche的用心,除了殼外,對於賣不多的車,卻願意更新所有裡頭的零件! 對於不是買車是放在車庫欣賞的我,有機會當然買MK2!有無炒作機會(MKI的車主氣瘋,身價無法像只有1500台那般)對我來說跟我自己開的爽是無法相比的! 這沒對錯像你這樣的收藏家,量跟價格你們很敏銳! 但我買車後,弄車的車加上賣車後的損失,每次都是賠死了! 我只在乎車帶給我的樂趣!收藏留給有心的人去玩!
