We've talked a bit about Bisimoto's wild 911 in the past. The car made its debut when it was featured on Matt Farah's Tuned show back in late 2015, and has been periodically spotted at SEMA and Luftgekuhlt—despite being watercooled—events since. Bisi actually tried to sell the car at a Mecum auction in 2016, but it didn't meet reserve. This car has …

Back when /DRIVE was making videos regularly, Joe Rogan's Sharkwerks-tuned 997 RS made a special appearance.

The guys at Donut Media are nothing if not excited. A car doesn't make anything so pedestrian as horsepower, they make HRSPRS. If those HRSPRS are especially stacked(preferably due to a steady diet of love and oats), they become #BUFFHORSES. 1987 isn't just a year, it's 8 years BPM (Before Post Malone). Anything worth saying is worth yelling. …

The Tokyo Auto Salon draws all sorts. With so many audiences catered to, the wildest custom creations make an appearance, and nothing is verboten.

When you think about the perfect Los Angeles city car, you don't necessarily jump to a 1980s Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2, but once Leh Keen has fiddled with the suspension and interior, it just might be. With a softer suspension, more tire sidewall, and taller ride height, a Safari 911 is an excellent machine for running around in the mean streets of …

It takes a good sense of self to admit that we're not getting any younger. The world takes its toll on our bodies, minds, and occasionally fitness. We can't run as fast as we used to, and usually don't look as good as we used to. Our style has changed, and what was once fashionable is now dated and embarrassing to be seen wearing in public.

The creations from Gunther Werks are truly something special. Their appeal should grow with another model—which is somewhat more accommodating than their hardcore 400R.
