What do you think of this Hemi-powered 911 Custom?

4/29/20191:06 estFiled to: Porsche 997, Tuned PorschesBy: Chris Cushing

Purity be damned, early water-cooled 911s and Caymans do lend themselves well to V8 swaps. In most cases the engine winds up right where Porsche intended, taking place of the flat-six. While this can require fiddling with the bulkhead in mid-engined cars, drivers do seem to welcome the update. A French custom shop, however, is taking a different …

Is a Panamera-Based Coupe or Convertible Imminent?

4/27/20192:18 estFiled to: NewsBy: Chris Cushing

At this point a Panamera-based two-door car is purely theoretical. All we have to work with are fresh grindings from the rumor mill. Theories about Panamera-based coupes and convertible have been circulating for years, and feel quite reasonable given the big sedan's family resemblance to the dearly-missed 928. Ten years on from the Panamera's …

4/18/20193:28 estFiled to: Electric Porsche, VideosBy: Chris Cushing

For Porsche, one of the most successful brands in motorsports history, it can be hard to stay humble. In recognition of their new effort, Porsche has created a video to remind everyone that new circumstances require starting anew, not resting on their laurels and past successes. This eighty-eight second video below doesn't tell much about the …

Put Some Pasha in Your Pantlegs With These Porsche-Inspired Socks

4/15/201912:31 estFiled to: LifeStyleBy: Chris Cushing

Evocative upholstery patterns! Motorsport liveries! Multiple vowels in a row! Striipe socks bring some serious car-guy cred to our otherwise human-hued feet and ankles. Striipe's lineup caters mostly to the German car fan, with a strong emphasis on Porsche and BMW. The designs chosen are subtle enough to not elicit snide comments from your …

Protecting a 911 Safari with XPEL Film and Ceramic Coatings

4/11/201912:00 estFiled to: Concours & Car Care, VideosBy: Chris Cushing

We love Leh Keen's Safari 911s. In keeping with our belief that the 911 is a perfect all-rounder, lifting one and fitting knobby tires seems to take nothing from the experience. Mr. Keen's cars are brilliant, and Matt Farah's personal car is one of the most interesting of the lot. Farah's Safari is finished in Cassis Red, a rather polarizing and …

Restoring a 911 Turbo on a 1/64 Scale Budget

4/11/201910:01 estFiled to: Diecast, VideosBy: Chris Cushing

Restoring an early Porsche 911 Turbo is an expensive venture. Parts can be expensive, paint is costly, and the value of the cars today makes even minor modifications something worth lengthy consideration. This example, introduced in 1979, avoids most of the pitfalls of Porsche restoration. With just a handful of parts to consider (only six of which …

In 2016 she became the first female racing driver to win a major series championship in North America. Following two successful years with Scuderia Corsa, in 2018 she joined Patrick Long at Wright Motorsports. With Porsche, Nielsen won …

“Somebody Reasonable Would Not Drive So Fast in the Rain,” Inside the Mind of Jacky Ickx

4/2/201911:01 estFiled to: VideosBy: Chris Cushing

"For those of you hoping to hear stories about racing, you will be disappointed. I am going to talk about gardening," is a rather inauspicious start to three quarters of an hour with one of the top drivers in history. To Ickx, however, it's a logical place to start. When he reached driving age at 16 his goal was to become a gardener or a …

Hunting Datsuns in a 1973 Porsche 911 RSR

3/27/201912:00 estFiled to: Porsche Race Cars, VideosBy: Chris Cushing

In the words of driver Jim Bouzaglou, "It doesn't matter what kind of car it is, we all get the red mist." At VARA's 50 Years of 240Z event, Jim has a surprisingly wide variety of cars to run down. The pits are positively laden with Datsuns, from BRE cars to brightly-liveried privateers of all sorts. Despite the focus on Datsuns, the grid in Jim's …

Everything You Need To Know About Porsche’s Iconic 1980s Supercar

3/19/20199:55 estFiled to: Porsche 959, VideosBy: Chris Cushing

https://youtu.be/97HeaXDIj0s I will spare you the shouting, as James Pumphrey has almost 14 minutes of excitement coming your way. This video isn't solely about quirks and features, nor is it about turning the 959 to 11. James, like many of us, has never seen a 959 in real life before, and he is taking this one in as Porsche intended. As the …
