Porsche's GT3 is perhaps the most interesting car they make today, as it's a very driver-focused experience and it's available with a stick shift. Some folks are saying that the new 500 horsepower GT3 is basically a less expensive and less rare 911R, and while that's not expressly true, it may as well be. Is it a road car that is comfortable on the …

Continue to the full articleComparing the Air Cooled Engine of a 993 to the Water Cooled Engine of a 996. What are the Differences?
I’ve been around air-cooled cars all my life. Both my parents had VW Beetles, so when it came time to replace my hand-me down first car, a ’71 Ford Capri, it isn’t surprising I went for a ’72 Super Beetle. Then years later, after I found out that Heidi had an heirloom 1958 Porsche 356A Cabriolet in the family, I made it my mission to get that car …

You can drive something unique and not have to put a mint into it. That's what Kevin Lynch says of his awesome Bahama Yellow 1968 Porsche 912 he affectionately calls "The Bahammer". The stock 90-ish horsepower 1.6-liter flat four has been pumped up quite a bit by Benton Performance in Anaheim, and now features a set of twin-plug cylinder heads, …

The Sebring circuit down in Florida is a favorite of mine. Not just because it hosts the famed 12 hour sports car endurance race every spring, but because it's an incredibly unique venue. In today's buttoned-up and professional sports car racing world, it's nice to see an old-world military base airstrip track still in use. It's bumpy and there's …

Is there any higher form of cheap entertainment than an empty parking lot the morning after it snows? In my formative years we always preferred our local baseball park's lots after a snowfall. It was guaranteed to be empty in the dead of winter, and was seldom cleared quickly. I wouldn't be shocked to find that scars dug by my Golf's studded …

The New GT3 RS If GT3 is good, GT3 RS is one step better. The RennSport version takes everything and kicks it up a notch or two. The current GT3 is so good, however, that Porsche really needed to put some massive effort into making this car any better than the one it replaces.

Continue to the full articleMaking The Analog Driver’s Case For Porsche’s Carrera T
The 991 Carrera T is, in a way, the anti-Porsche, or perhaps recalls the Porsche that Porsche used to be. As the company's sports car line continually focuses on quicker lap times at the expense of driver engagement, and the company's non-sports cars become ever more the focus of the sales floor, the Carrera T is anti-thematic for the brand in a …
