Teen Trades Up To Porsche Boxster
This is just too good not to post. I'm sure most of you have already seen this, but in case you haven't, you gotta check this out. This kid, Steven Oritz, started out with an old cell phone and, through a series of trades over the last two years, ended up with a 2000 Porsche Boxster S.
instaVIN Provides Easy Access To Accident History
A few weeks ago instaVIN contacted me about their new instant vehicle history access service. Sounded like CARFAX to me, but I figured I'd have a look anyway. After checking out the site, I have to say, I was impressed. instaVIN offers several valuable services that will help any of us when looking for that next used Porsche (or any used car for that matter).

I Think I'm In Love
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.

"Rare" My Asphalt…Part Zwei (2)
In case you missed my first "rare" rant, you can see it here: "Rare." Rare My Asphalt!.

I have a buddy that used to buy and sell used cars. He would always find a great deal on all kinds of cars. Some of my favorites were several Porsches (a 944, a slant nose 911 Turbo look, and a 911SC), a Corvette, and a Mercedes 450SL. The amazing thing was his ability to buy a car, drive it for as long as a year, then sell it for even money and sometimes a profit.
Another Porsche Trade
I'm always amazed at what people want to trade for a Porsche or for their Porsche. Today the stakes are a bit higher. Looking to get rid of your newer Porsche? If so, you're in for a treat. You could be the proud owner of a 2007 Bobcat. Here are the details:
