The rumor mill is in full swing this week with talk of Farnbacher Loles pulling out of the Grand-Am Rolex series and potentially closing their doors completely. Unfortunately, no one at Farnbacher is talking (we've made repeated phone calls), and up until today we hadn't wanted to post anything as our information was gathered solely from various …

Can Art Show How a Porsche Feels, Rather Than Simply How it Looks?
James May (of Top Gear fame) recently asked a very similar question in an article published in The Telegraph. He goes on to say, "Love comes in at the eye, according to WB Yeats, but the meaning of a 911 comes through the buttocks and some demons lurking in a dark corner of the mind. Cezanne revealed the world to us through a bowl of apples. …

Over the course of 2009, close to 500,000 people will travel the hallowed halls of the new Porsche Museum (much more than twice the 200,000 originally expected). While some live close by, others have made a pilgrimage, covering 1000s of miles, on this holiest of journeys to Porsche's very own "Mecca". The crowds, both reverent and raucous, …

The more I see of the new Porsche Boxster Spyder, the more I think this could be the next Porsche in my garage. The PCH has to be one of the best driving roads in the US and having just driven more than 1200 miles up, down and around the same places in a 2009 Boxster S it was good to see these roads again. Don't forget to watch the video through …

Between the crowds, the traffic and the parking (not to mention having to dodge all people coughing and sneezing) I'm doing my best to get all my Christmas shopping done online this year. Unfortunately, when you're shopping for Porsche fans (and I have quite a few on my Christmas list) it's not always easy. Well, last week, in an effort to help, …

As I was editing today's post about this year's 944Fest and preparing to publish it, I suddenly remembered that it was the two year anniversary of PorschePurist and I was struck by how far the site has come since my first couple of posts (first post, second post). As of today, just shy of 1,000,000 unique visitors have found their way to …

Now matter how hard we try, it's not always possible to cover everything happening in the world of Porsche. There are times when the the PR machine at Porsche is working over time to fill the airways with news and information and then there are times when the silence emanating from Stuttgart is deafening. For those weeks when there's simply more …

The new Porsche Panamera has been unjustly likened to a tank by some. Well now there might be just cause. Porsche is known for offering a myriad of options on all their new cars. However, when I recently used the Porsche car configurator to option out a new Panamera, I thought I had all there was on offer including a refrigerator in the back seat …

Talk about buried treasure! The picture below was snapped by Asylum blogger Elizabeth Brady. Ms. Brady was fortunate unfortunate enough to be in Cape Hatteras, N.C. last week during Hurricane Ida. When I first saw the picture below I thought it was Jeremy Clarkson bashing on Porsche again, but it seems this Cayman was just an unfortunate victim …

I don't know what it is about Porsche and artists, but the iconic 911 seems to spark some strange ideas. Take this chocolate covered Porsche that would even have Willy Wonka asking, "why?" That's right, a chocolate covered Porsche (at least they covered it in plastic first). According to a story on Autoblog.nl, a Porsche dealer in the …
