If you want to stand out on Nurburgring touristenfarhten days, picking a GT-series Porsche isn't the right way to go. They're ubiquitous around the Green Hell. Maybe certain generations of BMW M3s are nearly as common there, but as far as production-series track cars go, there aren't many more popular than the Porsche 911. So why did Robert …

Why Does F1 Ace And Le Mans Champ Nico Hulkenberg Drive a Porsche GT2 RS MR?
I mean, why not? After spending your entire life racing very quick, lightweight, and unbelievably agile vehicles, your standards rise to stratospheric levels. For that reason, it grows harder and harder to enjoy a capable road car—even a very quick one—as it usually feels incredibly lethargic in comparison to that incisive single seater or …

Big wings, a gaping maw, the right amount of badging, and an exhaust note that sounds the business. All these qualities solidify the impression of aggression this car leaves on anyone looking at it for more than two seconds. Oh—and its 414 horsepower also helps. It's a classic, unfiltered, intense sports car for someone in need of a rolling …

For going quickly with minimal effort, there aren't many vehicles better than the latest 911 Turbo. Its massive torque is made manageable with enviable traction, its slippery shape helps it all the way to 205 miles per hour, its power delivery is predictable, and the gearing—among other things—makes it faster than the Taycan Turbo S.

Donning a mule's disguise for a few laps at the 'Ring, what are likely the newest members of Porsche's GT family suggest there's a bright future ahead for the normally aspirated engine of the increasingly girthy 992's body.

It's a pity Porsche didn't continue using forced induction in their customer-oriented racing cars after the 993. True, turbochargers meant greater running costs, but the sheer grunt made the 993 GT2 racers quite special.

A background in Formula Renault, Porsche Supercup, and a little Le Mans work does wonders for confidence. Kuba Giermaziak, a Polish ace whose resume will make a reader pout their lower lip in admiration, shows us how the GT2 RS is a handful on a set of well-worn tires. His willingness to experiment with the limited grip and throw this Manthey-tuned …

Additive manufacturing is the fancy scientific way of saying 3D-printed, and it's the future of automotive engineering. Porsche can design in a lot more tech to a simple piece like a piston by using this crazy new technology.
