We've been in love with the Porsche 908 for some time now. I don't know if it's suspension activated ailerons in the 908LH or the open cockpit of the 908/2, but there's something about that flat-8 engine howling with pleasure as it completes lap after lap that just puts a big smile on my face. Interestingly, the 908/2 started as a …

Does Driving a Singer-Customized Porsche Ruin Every Other 911?
By now, Porsche 911s customized by Singer (don't you dare call it a Singer Porsche) have been reviewed ad nauseam. Chris Harris has driven one for /Drive in the past, Car and Driver explained the manufacturing process and Jay Leno got into the fray during an episode of Jay Leno's Garage. Hell, even Larry Kosilla documented how to detail a Singer. …

Well preserved, unrestored cars are continually gaining traction in the collector market. Concours events and auctions are increasingly catering to preservation-class cars, and the market is pushing the price point of Porsches like this higher and higher. Auctions America pushed survivor 356 prices through the roof this past weekend, with this 1957 …

We've been compiling some amazing Porsche models on eBay for over two years now, and we've seen some pretty astonishing cars pop up now and again. This week, thanks to some inspiration from SEMA, we focused on slant-nose 911s (the good, the bad and the ugly) another kit car we can't quite figure out and a very clean 914 we just couldn't pass up. …

My love of Porsche wasn't at first sight, it was love at first sound! I can clearly remember the day I first heard an air-cooled 911. I was 13 and it was the early 80's. Porsches were definitely not common in my neighborhood and until that day I'd only seen them on posters and TV. The throaty burble of the flat-six immediately grabbed my attention …

Porsche and Jaguar have been vying for roughly the same segment of the sports car marketplace for as long as both brands have existed. Car Advice recently released a comparison of the F-Type and Boxster, which drew me backwards through the history of both brands' entry-level sports cars. In recent months I've had the pleasure of driving several …

Every year it seems like the number of Porsches appearing at SEMA grows exponentially. This year you couldn't walk two feet without running into an RWB Porsche, one of Magnus' 911s, or even Magnus himself. However, there was one Porsche in particular that stood out from the rest, a retro-mod slant-nose 997. A photo posted by old & new …

Youtube user 19Bozzy92 first saw this Porsche Powered T1 VW bus during a charity event at Monza. Fortunately, for us, he was able to speak with the owner and shoot video of it hanging with supercars all while it ferried passengers around the track at warp speed. The Swiss owner of this Porsche powered bus, Fred Bernhard, spent five years …
Continue to the full articleWhat to Buy: Porsche 911 R or Carrera GT?
Porsche Carrera GT vs Porsche 911 R. It's not a comparison you would think to normally make. They're two completely different cars. Porsche's last true analog super car with a V-10 engine and no "nannies" vs. what may be one of their last normally aspirated flat-six engines in a light weight, no frills 911 shell. However, with 911 Rs now trading …
