Hell's Gate is one of the most difficult obstacles in Moab, a steep slick rock face fit for only the most powerful off-road rigs with excellent tires and competent 4WD systems. Porsche wasn't messing around when it built the Cayenne, as it was actually fairly off-road capable from the factory, but it certainly didn't have the talents needed to take …

Porsche has a bit of a Cayman complex. You know what that is, right? The Cayman, being a mid-engine car, is a great platform for big power and track performance. Unfortunately, Porsche has to keep it down a little bit lower than its ultimate potential, because it can't be faster or quicker or lap any given track better than a 911 can. The …

Race car for the road is a term that gets bandied about a bit too often these days. Often it's a moniker applied to a hot hatchback or something else quite clearly developed expressly for road use.

In 1993, production of the BTR2 began. As the second production car in RUF's lineup, it took its name from the G-body-based BTR unveiled a decade earlier.

If you're willing to part with a little more than $1,000,000, you can help write an abandoned chapter in Porsche's racing history. The stillborn racing project that begat the Carrera GT, dubbed the 9R3 LMP900, brought along with it a whole host of tech that might've made it a standout.

Though the shape and the sheer presence of Rauh-Welt's vehicles are all inspired by old-world motorsport, their striking appearance is appreciated by more folks loitering in parking lots than racing fans sitting in grandstands.
