Carfection, as per usual, has the best produced and most insightful video reviews on the internet. They've returned with Henry Catchpole to review the Taycan Turbo S on the road. As we already knew, the Taycan is a certified good car, and gets the unofficial Carfection seal of approval. But what it doesn't do is take the place of an internal …

Jay Leno Gets Acquainted With Bisimoto’s 850-Horsepower ’75 911
It's funny to think that the M96 in the rear of this car once had a bad cylinder and a melted piston. Bisi Ezerioha, then only experienced with four-cylinder motors, saw an opportunity to resleeve the block, add Traum pistons and a handful of his own handmade internals. Now, the motor is force-fed by Turbonetics turbos, cooled by a Spearco …

PCNA had another strong month in September, outselling the same period of a year ago by 111 units. Much of that success is due to resurgent sales now that the new 992-generation 911 has reached it's full production potential. The remainder of the high month was brought about by the Cayenne's continued sales success. Macan, Panamera, and 718 all …

It's strange to think that what was once Porsche's cheapest road car has spawned such a legacy. Where the basic 356 Speedster was inexpensive and humble, each subsequent generation is seemingly more limited and exclusive than the last. When the Speedster name re-emerged in the late-1980s as a spartan (but apparently practical) version of the 911, …

For me, the words "DIY" and "engine mounts" in the same sentence cause a lot of stress. Before coming into the Porsche world, I spent years immersed in modified VWs. Seeing those two phrases together recalls unhappy memories of VR6 owners yanking all the rubber out of their engine mounts and stacking hockey pucks in their place, raising the engine …

There are very few racers in the world who can put "Porsche Works Driver" on their CV. That privilege is limited to perhaps no more than a few dozen racing drivers throughout history. Today Simona de Silvestro can call herself a works driver for the Porsche Formula E squad, netting a testing and development role to assist Neel Jani and Andre …

"This is the most track-focused, surgically precise, lightest, most downforcey 911 that you can buy," Farah begins. The stance and aerodynamic additions leave nobody guessing what this monster is meant to do—as will the exhaust note. At 9,000 rpm, the scream the 4.0-liter makes sounds like Armageddon—the good kind. We're all familiar with the car, …

268 km/h indicated. For those of us who measure in freedom units, that's the equivalent of 167.5 mph. That's a seriously impressive number for Porsche's electric sedan. Remember it wasn't all that long ago that the average sport sedan couldn't touch 150 mph. Of course, in today's power-obsessed market, there are a handful of sedans capable of …

We're entering new territory here! Porsche has just introduced the first of likely many electric cars in its Taycan, and it probably won't be long until we have a hybridized 911 in dealer showrooms. It's time we got with the program and see how this electric propulsion stuff works first hand. We've had "Project Boxster Clubsport" for a few years, …
