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 …

Why 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 …

Through the 1990s and early 2000s impact-bumper 911s seemed like one of the best deals in sports cars. Sure, an LT-1 C4 Corvette was faster in a straight line, but it had all the build quality of a newspaper bin and all the cachet of an Applebees. Though ill-equipped for the stoplight drags, an impact bumper 911 offered a lot for relatively little …

There's no easy answer to the titular question, but the 3.2-liter Porsches from the mid-eighties are worth giving some serious consideration. Perhaps it's their unmistakable rasp, or those pedals mounted from the floor, but there's something exciting about this generation of the 911. Barring the turbocharged models, these simplistic 911s weren't …

Every year "Motor Trend" holds their "World's Greatest Drag Race". It's a who's who of supercars in a straight-line shoot-out. Not surprisingly, at least one Porsche is featured each year. However, in the 6 seasons "Motor Trend" has been producing this segment Porsche has only won once (back in 2014 a 911 Turbo S took home the win). That's not …

Kurt Gerhardt describes his 1969 Porsche 911 T as a "solid car". That might just be a bit of an understatement as he goes on to say, "No matter what it just keeps on running and you can beat it up a bit and you can haul-ass and it still does great and starts up every day." Now that's a Porsche worth keeping and one of many reasons you can get so …

It's striking how quiet the Porsche factory is. During engine assembly the loudest sound seems to be the gentle clatter of the machine which sets the pistons into the ring compressor. Even the chain hoists operate with a near silent "tick-tick-tick" as the chains move over the rollers. Six decades ago, when the 356 was in production, the Porsche …

Have you met James, or Mr. JWW as he's know on YouTube? Mr. JWW is a "supercar vlogger". In other words, he's done well in life to afford some incredible machines and spends time creating videos about them. In turn, those videos are entertaining enough that he's collected over 150,000 subscribers to his channel along the way. Those aren't huge …

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl_g5grZ1DY Matt describes the GT3 as "about the limit of racecar for the street", because anything more hardcore is something you don't want to drive everyday, and to me that makes perfect sense. The GT3 is the sweet-spot of street-ability, and is legitimately a car that you can drive to the grocery store, or …

We recently met up with Matt Farah of The Smoking Tire at the US press launch of the new 718 Boxster and Cayman in Austin, Texas. While there, the conversation obviously gravitated toward the car we were both there to test drive. For the most part, we had very similar opinions of the car. It drives like a dream. It's faster, more comfortable, and …
