OK, so maybe it's a little more of an open secret than a true secret, but the new Cayman GT4 RS has been spotted testing at the Nürburgring again. This time we got an even better taste of the gloriously sonorous exhaust note, and it's making us rethink everything we know about the world, Porsche, and the Cayman. Thanks to Automotive Mike on …

How Does A Porsche Taycan Turbo Compare To A Tesla Model S And An Audi E-Tron In A Drag Race?
I don't normally recommend drag racing, running top speed, or panic braking while it's raining out, but that didn't stop the CarWow folks over in the UK from giving it a go. They had three high performance electric sedans on hand, so why not compare them to each other in equal conditions? Given that the specifications between Porsche's Taycan Turbo …

Overlanding is all the rage these days. So much so that even Porsche itself is getting in on the trend. Among the best of the long series of companies to capitalize on this trend, however, is E-Motion Engineering, and establishment proprietor Joey Seely. You may know Joey as the guy behind Project Nasty, a former engineer for BBI Autosport, who …

When McLaren won the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans with the F1 GTR entered in the GT1 class, Porsche decided to challenge it a year later with the 911 GT1. Porsche succeeded in beating the McLaren F1; however, that was short-lived because Mercedes-Benz’s CLK GTR essentially killed the class. Carfection has gathered all three legendary street-legal race …

A lot can change in 33 years. Porsche's 911 Carrera 3.2 was the top dog back then. It had just gotten a fresh G50 gearbox with hydraulic clutch actuation and smoother shifts, but not much had changed, mostly because it wasn't broke and Porsche didn't have to fix it. The car was brilliant to drive in its day, and frankly still is. Today, however, …

The endless stream of Porsche 911 variants continues and one of the upcoming additions is the Sport Classic. One of the giveaways that this is a Sport Classic is the ducktail spoiler, which was also found in the 997-generation car, the first to offer this variant built by Porsche Exclusive. That design cue pays tribute to the 1973 Carrera RS 2.7, …
Continue to the full articleWhy Have Rear-Engined Designs Survived with Porsche?
Being rear-engined does have some drawbacks. Even a 356, which carries far less weight aft of its rear axle, can have a penchant for bringing the tail around under certain conditions. As an avowed lover of the 356, you can only imagine the amount of jealousy I am feeling that Jalopnik's Jason Torchinsky even had the chance to spin an America …
Continue to the full articleIs the 911 Carrera Club Sport The Best Driving Air-Cooled 911?
The 911 Carrera Club Sport is an exercise in minimalism not equaled by any other impact-bumper 911. With the broad torque curve of a 3.2 and the elemental simplicity of a 2.7RS, this is a very special car. In typical Porsche fashion this car wasn't constructed with a Chapman-era-Lotus-like approach to weightloss, however. Chapman was happy to shave …

It's difficult to tell a compelling story in just a few minutes, but Porsche manages to make that happen with every new issue of the video magazine 9:11. It's always limited to nine minutes and eleven seconds, making the stories hot and fast. This episode focuses in on Rennsport Reunion, and it is an incredibly awesome series of vignettes. If …
Continue to the full articleWhy Porsche Doesn’t Owe Enthusiasts Anything, Really
Porsche has been building cars longer than most people reading this have been alive. For seven decades they've been tearing up their own script and occasionally re-writing it wholesale. People complained when 356 production ended in favor of the heavier and more expensive 911. People complained when the 964 debuted because it had coil springs of …
