After a long day of swapping keys, the group of us sat around a table full of chicken fajitas comparing notes. "It's remarkable how similar the driving experience is. Even with more than four times the power, that 930 drives a lot like my 912E," I said, perhaps letting the word 'similar' do too much work in that statement. Both cars are built on …

This 964-based Carrera Rod Plays Hopscotch Between the Border of Awesome & Awful
Danton Arts Kustoms of France certainly wowed the crowds with their matte purple front-engine V8 hot rod with a chopped 964 body shell when it debuted in Monaco. It's hard to not see this car and immediately do a double take. It takes a very loose interpretation to call this thing a Porsche, because very little remains of the original 964 they used …

Porsche's 1989 Speedster is an incredibly rare piece of air-cooled history, with just over 2000 units made for the entire world. Luckily, for Porsche fanatics everywhere, this particular Speedster was built up from a far-less-rare 1989 Carrera 3.2 Targa. The owner of this 911 had already completed the Speedster conversion, but deemed the look 'too …

It's amazing how much Porsche tuning has changed within the last two decades. Twenty years ago cars like the Ruf CTR2 were at the forefront of Porsche tuning. TechArt wheels and aerokits were popular. Gemballa was making flatnose kits for 993s. While aggressive, modern looking air-cooled cars remain popular, backdating is very much in vogue. The …

If, as the the saying goes, the devil is in the details, then this 1977 Porsche 911S is positively satanic. Every inch of this Porsche is festooned with details you would never notice if it wasn't pointed out. In the same way that Singer re-imagines every single component of their customized 911s for ultimate perfection, New Jersey shop ROCS has …

We all remember the season when Brumos left the racing world, but did you know that a little bit of good came out of that? That's right, Leh Keen's "The Keen Project" first kicked-off during his hiatus from motorsport when he was between teams. When the legendary Florida team discontinued their Grand Am GT program, Leh started building a backdated …

Despite the jolly color scheme, this '88 Carrera does not suffer fools. Its instantaneous turbo response, frightening thrust, and surprisingly compliant suspension should encourage any hot-blooded enthusiast to start saving their pennies for the day when they can build something equally terrifying—and perhaps something just as colorful. This is …

One look at the RUF SCR's underlying structure will tell you that it is not a 911. This new special, which just debuted at Geneva, is something else entirely. Like the new RUF CTR, which debuted last year, it is based on a proprietary chassis full of very un-Porsche traits. The SCR is based on the same tubular structure as the new CTR, and uses the …

In the best sense of the word, this '78 911 is a mutt. Not only does it wear the skin of a 964, but it's been recently fitted with a 5.3-liter LM7 motor out of—shock and horror—a Cadillac. It's not the first American motor to be swapped into a Porsche, but it is one of the more extravagant. However, the current state of the car is …

You may have seen this build featured on the Hoonigan YouTube Channel a couple of weeks ago, but Larry Chen and Will Roegge have now released a longer version with more Porsche-focussed shenanigans. The new video includes more onboard driving video, more drifty-slidey clips, and a ton of badass supercharger whine audio. Chen and Roegge were invited …
