Theophilus Chin has been chopping and rendering cars since at least January 2009. While I don't always like everything he does, the Porsche Cayman Station Wagon (a.k.a. the Porsche Cayvan) he posted earlier this week looks like something I wouldn't mind seeing come off the production line.

Meet The Porsche 913. The Ferrari Fighter Porsche Should Build
Porsche has several market prices in its current model lineup, but lets focus on the two top models for just a moment, ignoring the sedans and the SUVs. The 918 Spyder costs well over $800,000, and within spitting distance of $1,000,000 with the right options. The 911 Turbo S can be priced near $250,000 with the right boxes checked (admittedly, …

For decades most Porsche 914s sat on the sidelines watching as their more rarified bretheren got the lion's share of attention. Over the past 10 years pricing on air-cooled Porsches such as the 356, 930, 964 and 993s have skyrocketed, with much of the increase coming in the last two years alone. Meanwhile, 914s languished on the value sidelines; …

Not surprisingly, the same study shows that men find women who drive Porsches attractive, too. Go figure.

I die a little inside when I see Porsches like this. I'm sure the owner had the best of intentions and it's possible that the conversion was even done well. It's just that no matter how good of a job was done, a Porsche 928 and a Chevy Elcamino should have never been mated. Maybe it would be okay for them to pass on the street. But, to swap parts …

While out at the LA Auto Show at the end of November, MotorTrend was given the unique opportunity to drive the new Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo around Beverly Hills.

The Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo isn't the first concept four door wagon to come out of Porsche (don't forget about the 1991 four door 928 concept shown below). However, to date, no Porsche has been built as a production version station wagon. However, there have been plenty of cargo type modification done on other Porsches. The …

It might be bring a smile to your face to recall the very first time you ever set foot in a Porsche. I had just that experience this week.
