Every year around Halloween the most intense car builds in the world gather to capture attention at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturing Association convention—or SEMA—in sunny Las Vegas, Nevada. Each time SEMA happens, the builds get bigger and wilder and start from a more bizarre premise. We've seen lots of crazy engine swaps into Porsches, but …
Continue to the full articleWhich Porsche is quickest in a drag race?
If you're looking to buy a new Porsche off the lot (or more likely special order) and the only thing you're interested in is how quickly it goes in a straight line, this is the video for you. Straight line performance is a strange metric for measuring Porsches, especially against each other, but it's a fun thing to watch, so here we are. If you …

When you buy a used car, especially one that was a bargain, you expect a few things to be wrong with it. Not only does this include things that are broken or need a little TLC, but things that you personally want to change for the better enjoyment of the thing. After having lived with this 996 Turbo for over 2500 miles on the drive home from …
Continue to the full articleThere could be more Porsches in DTM after successful debut year
Prior to 2022 Porsche had never even considered entering DTM as a constructor. The European-based series has traditionally been a fighting ring for big German brawlers from the likes of BMW and Mercedes, and while Porsche has a big powerful sedan in its Panamera, that's hardly the kind of car that needs motorsport chops. Last year, however, the …

Over the course of 36 hours at the world-famous Sebring International Raceway, Porsche and its driving crew managed to rack up an incredible 4,555 miles of race-pace testing. Sebring is, of course, among the toughest tracks in the world on a car; its surface consists of decades-old concrete slabs laid in the run up to World War II. The track has …

Okay, we've all heard this one before. Porsche is *this close* to securing a deal to buy half of a Formula One team. Sure, I'll believe it when I see it. But according to multiple reports, that's exactly what is happening. After Porsche's deal to buy half of Red Bull Racing fell through in dramatic fashion, The Mirror in the UK reports that Porsche …
Continue to the full articleThe new Porsche 911 Carrera T is unquestionably the sweet spot of the lineup
We know the formula by now, or at least we should. Carrera T is to base Carrera as Carrera GTS is to Carrera S, right? As good as the new 992 GTS is, I'm getting the feeling this new T will be the one to pick. The GTS is just too fast to use on your favorite roads. I mean, I saw 1.4 lateral G indicated in a Targa model. That's just too much grip, …
Continue to the full articleI bought a cheap Porsche 911 Turbo and everything went wrong
Recently I've been looking for 996 Turbos because while they're rapidly appreciating in value, they're still one of the best bang for the buck Porsches out there on the market. They're half the cost of a 997 Turbo, and a third the cost of a 993 Turbo. Sure, that comes with the baggage of a cheap feeling interior and egg headlights (which I actually …
Continue to the full articleElectric Macan launch delayed at least until 2024 due to Volkswagen Group software issues
More than a year ago we told you that the Electric Macan was "nearly here". The lie detector test determined that was a lie. We didn't know it was a lie back then, of course. We assumed that the car was going to be ready for prime time late in 2022 for an early 2023 delivery. As with pretty much every new car of the last two years, for one reason …

You already know who Kelly-Moss Racing is. This team has been fielding championship-winning Porsches since 1988, and every year it seems they get more and more drivers into serious machinery. While most of their business is client-based arrive-and-drive kind of stuff for PCA, SCCA, and GT3 Cup, they do some higher-level racing from time to time as …
