Beware, dear reader, as this is a video that requires some reading. When discussing something as dear to his heart as rally cars, Herr Röhrl tends to stick with his native German. Though the video is in German, the visual language of Porsche racing cars transcends the spoken word, and Herr Röhrl has brought some icons for the latest Top 5 …

The New Macan GTS Is Finally Here
One key model was missing from the Macan model range following the 2019 updates to the model- the GTS. The updated model range did somewhat confuse the old nomenclature wherein the model branded as the "Turbo" received a larger displacement engine, despite all models being equipped with turbochargers. Today all V6-powered Macans, including the …

Boost Brothers Garage bought a 944 for use as a track car. It's not pretty. It wasn't pretty when they started, and it was possibly less pretty when they finished. In just ten minutes though, the pair went from a relatively-complete looking (but non-running) 944 track car to something rather more peculiar. The car they started with looked faster …

Modern racecars are hyperbolic in nearly every sense. The tires? Massive. The brakes? Indefatigable. The power figures? Not often fully stated in public, but generally extraordinary. The array of switches? They'd make a DC-8 pilot blush. Not so the 906. The 906 is hyperbolic in one, perhaps two ways. At 580 kilograms it is lighter than any modern …

Porsche hasn't entered in open-wheel racing as a constructor in decades, or even as an engine supplier since the 1990s. Indeed, Porsche's last appearances as either in Formula 1 were in 1962 and 1991 respectively. The brand withdrew as an engine supplier from Indycar a year earlier in 1991. While Porsche's role in Formula E will be somewhat …

Before we even discuss the car, let's take a moment to behold Bark Kuyken's garage. We definitely love a good garage- somewhere where each car has some room to breathe. Somewhere that offers the flexibility to hang out, display, or work on your cars is about as good as it gets. To top it all off, Bart's garage is on the upper level of his building. …

No Radwood event is complete without a smattering of Porsche 924s, 944s, and 968s. The recent Boston event at the Larz Anderson Museum was no exception- there were about a dozen in attendance. Project 944 GTS made the trek from my home in Albany, New York to the event. Though there were quite a number of very nice Porsches in attendance, Radwood …

Graham bought his 1969 Porsche 911T back in the mid-1990s, long before the air-cooled 911 boom. Graham found his purple 911T in the Netherlands, and after parting with a then-substantial number of guilders (which Porsche reports was equal to about €21k), he drove the car home. Upon his return the purple T became Graham's daily driver. It made …
Continue to the full articleHere Are All Of The Quirks and Features of the 992-Generation Carrera
We all know that the 911 has grown a lot, but seeing Doug DeMuro next to this Lizard Green 992 has really cemented just how much. All 992s are now "widebody" cars, and as a result a base Carrera is a whopping 72.9" wide. That's 4.5" wider than a 993 (though perhaps about the same as a Carrera RS), or 3.2" wider than a 996. It's a full 10" longer …
Continue to the full articleBringing the 959 and 911 GT2 RS Together: The Pinnacle Of Porsche
Even thirty two years on the little details of the 959 can make other 911-based cars seem pedestrian. Where the GT2 RS is a wild machine covered in scoops, wings, and hyperbole, its floor is mere metal. The 959 separates its occupants from the pavement with nomex. Point, 80s dream machine. It seems that every other trait about the car is similarly …
