This March, as part of Omega Auctions annual Beatles auction, a Porsche 928 once owned by Beatles guitarist George Harrison will come up for sale. Purchased new by Harrison in 1980, he went on to drive the black 928 for three to four years before selling it onward. What happened to it then is anyone's guess, but it resurfaced a number of years …

Check Out RWB’s 993 Cabriolet: Purist.
We love watching Nakai-San work. Whether he's building cars to be used on track or on the street, as in this case, there is something special about each one. This particular car started life as a 993 Cabriolet, and is known simply as "Purist," though it appears to be anything but "pure." All of the traditional RWB hallmarks are present, from the …

I hope I'm not the only one who remembers the "Choose Your Own Adventure" books. The plots were often clunky, and the variable endings provided more routes to failure than the Oregon Trail computer game. The books were fun, and encouraged the reader to think about their choices carefully to achieve the best outcome. Porsche has taken a similar …

After the Second World War there were more automakers than there are today. From Abarth to Zundapp, the automotive marketplace was a crowded and often bizarre place. Each segment offered a wide range of vehicles, with a range of shapes and build quality that would baffle a modern buyer. In order to keep the company moving forward, through difficult …

We've been wrenching on "Project Boxster Clubsport" for quite a while now, and it just keeps getting better. We purchased the Porsche for a song, and have been slowly making some moves to drop the car's weight and add a little more fun.

The sound of a Porsche's exhaust note is as synonymous with the brand as the iconic look of the 911 itself. It's no wonder that Porsche spends so much time, money and effort on ensuring that each model sounds just so and as close to perfection as possible. In fact, every year at the Museum, Porsche hosts a "Sound Night". During this event, …

By now you're most likely familiar with Beyoncé's pregnancy photo shoot involving a flower filled 914 (if you've been living in a cave, that's it above). While there are certainly worse uses for a 914, these Porsches deserve better than to be a prop. Idaho-based Porsche enthusiast, and multiple 914 owner Christian O'Bryan, saw Beyoncé's …

Innovation moves faster in competition. Both Porsche and Michelin have been involved in competition from nearly the very beginning. Michelin was founded in 1889, and by 1891 they were racing. The first Porsche 356 hit the road in June of 1948, and went racing almost immediately after. Porsche and Michelin first partnered up, officially, in 1961. …

When the 964 Carrera 4 launched in 1989, it was a revolution. For a short time the nearly-all-new Carrera 4 sold alongside the outgoing Carrera 3.2 and the 930. Where the older cars clung to tradition, the 964 Carrera 4 pushed bravely into the future; a future Kelly Moss Road & Race (KMR) is helping to realize. Torsion bars gave way to Macpherson …
