For some Porsche owners, the second-best thing to owning an actual Porsche is collecting Porsche model and toy cars. If you're looking to start your own collection or add to an existing collection, you've come to the right place.

Dream Big: A 1:8 Scale R/C Lego Porsche 917K
It's amazing how much detail LEGO can cram into a small space. Their Mini Cooper kit, and indeed most of their large-scale models, are 16 studs wide. The Speed Champions series are 6-studs wide. Some dreams require just a bit more room. At a full 32 studs across and 68 studs long Sariel's R/C 917K dwarfs most of LEGO's in-house creations. Add to …

Safari 911s are very much in vogue right now. Of course, 911s behave rather well on loose surfaces, so it's only appropriate. Matt Farah is having one built by Leh Keen, who has built more than a few of them. This 964 Carrera 4-based Safari build is among the wildest we've seen so far. Now, Instagram user Trialpsycho_RC is bringing us the smallest …

We love RC Porsches and own quite a few of them ourselves. That's why we're keeping our fingers crossed that Silverlit Toys sends us a sample of their new Interactive Bluetooth R/C Porsche 911 Carrera to review. Like a lot of other RC Porsches it's a scale model of a 911 Carrera (the 997, not the 991), electric powered and ready to run right out …

Kind of... Anyone that's read PorschePurist for a while knows we love RC Cars, especially when they're Porsche related (remember our review of the Tamiya Porsche 911 GT3 VIP Cup Car). That's why we can't stop thinking about this Porsche 356 from Schuco. We first saw this Porsche Schucotronic 2.4 about two months ago over at BornRich. …

Over the past few months I’ve been getting to know the guys at Porsche Cars North America. We don’t talk often, but when we do it’s a friendly and open conversation. I’m forward about my desire to drive a Porsche from their media fleet and their candid about the likelihood of that happening. :-) So, you can imagine my surprise when the doorbell …
