You're in 1980s England and you've got a case full of "powder" and some unsavory types on your tail in a flash Land Rover. Hop in the 930 and blast off, chap! This little video was created by the folks at Hagerty UK as a way to promote next weekend's upcoming Radwood UK. The event will be at Goodwood Motor Circuit on Sunday, August 11th. In the …

Porsche Reviews Its Five Greatest American Icons
Just five years after the war ended, Porsche started importing small batches of cars into New York City to plant its feet for the first time on American soil. News traveled quickly on a westward wind and the Californians, free from harsh weather, soon after demanded their own style of Porsche. Now, ostensibly this video was created as a way for …

Let's get this out of the way right now- The Straight Pipes got their title wrong. The first mid-engine Porsche was 356-001 from 1948. Indeed, the hosts note that right at the beginning of the video, despite the title. There were also 84 550 Spyders (14 works and 70 customer/road cars), and numerous other race cars prior to the 914. The 914 was the …

9 minutes and 11 seconds isn't a long time to tell a single story, much less five. Despite that, Porsche has taken on the challenge of telling five unique stories each month with their 9:11 visual magazine. This month, the theme is water- mostly rain, but also the indomitable force of the sea itself. https://youtu.be/kMkcrWxgaXw The Passage …

The trouble with limited-run Porsche models is there simply aren't enough to go around, and the 993 Speedster is among the most extreme cases. When Porsche launched a 911-based Speedster in 1989, they initially built 800. When they re-launched the Speedster with the 964 generation in 1994 they made just 936. When the 993 came around, things were …

CODE BROWN! I'm going to need a change of shorts over here, please. When navigating the infamous Tail of the Dragon, one must exercise a little caution. Blind bends and off-camber turns dot the eleven-mile stretch of country road in Deals Gap, North Carolina, and too much gusto can lead to a very costly …

Porsche nomenclature can be confusing. In the world of 356s, the Carreras were the top of the heap. The lightweight quad-cam Carreras and Carrera 2s were the GT3s of their day; they were deeply specialized, performance-first machines. Today, however, the Carrera name denotes the bottom of the 911 hierarchy. The SC/GT fit somewhere between the …

This is my third time attending the awesome Aircooled show put on by Pat Long, Howie Idelson, and an increasingly busy Jeff Zwart. I made the trek to Los Angeles for Luft 3 before I even owned an aircooled car. I attended last year with my 912E in the parking lot. This year I applied to be in the show and wonder of wonders they selected it to be …

Safari and rally style Porsches are the hottest thing at the moment. From Leh Keen's 911s to ASFOLT's 924S, getting a bit more clearance under a Porsche seems like the hippest thing in the world. To our knowledge though, no one has seriously attempted to build a Safari-style 928. With a palpable sense of Gallic imperturbability Philippe Delaporte …

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar1yHoaWMUs There's nothing quite like going for an early morning drive across the Southern California desert in a vintage aircooled 911. The folks at CPR Classics have the right idea here, as they bomb across the wide open expanses in a 1971 911S. If you've never had the glorious experience of desert driving like …
