Porsche’s Results And Pictures From Petit Le Mans
This weekend marked the final round of the IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship at Road Atlanta's famed Petit Le Mans. The ten-hour race in northern Georgia was bound to be a tough one from the start, but Porsche was more than ready for the challenge.

Just under 4,000 Porsche fans showed up to come bask in the auditory triumphs of their favorite brand. The exhibition featured thirteen cars, with sounds ranging …

We've been compiling some amazing Porsche models on eBay for three years now, and we've seen some pretty astonishing examples pop up now and again. This week we're focusing on Porsche's GT wonder, the 928s of the 1970s, '80s, and 90s. They're big and beautiful, and some of them are still quite affordable to purchase, if not maintain. Hopefully …

Since parting company with the 919 Hybrid, Marc Lieb, Romain Dumas, and Timo Bernhard have returned to their roots in GT racing, with each of them driving for Porsche's customer teams at this year's 24 Hours of Spa.

Porsche Motorsport North America finally understands that fans want to see something other than the staid and German red/white/black stripe livery that they have been running all year.

Before any hearts get completely shattered, as mine was upon viewing this video, the 356 appears to be a replica. Nevertheless, the story remains the same. An inattentive van driver backs in to a space at speed, completely fails to notice the pale blue 356 Cabriolet already in the spot, and shunts the car into a canal. Given the van's speed it's …

Where the new Porsche 935's sole purpose is to go fast and make noise, the original 935's purpose was rather more involved. That original slant-nosed track warrior was not merely a toy for the super-wealthy to drive and induce salivation in, it was a genuine racing car.

Rennsport Reunion VI was among the most memorable automotive events in my recent memory. The showmanship involved on the part of Porsche's employees, their pride in the brand's history, and their willingness to talk about nothing but Porsche for the week of Rennsport is commendable.
