Porsche 928 GTS Pickup Truck

Filed to: Porsche 928By:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. When it comes to Porsche, I’m a purist. I like my Porsches stock, straight from the factory. It’s not that I don’t appreciate modifications and the extra performance (or in this case utility) that comes with them, I just prefer things the way Porsche meant them to be. That’s why creations like Harry …

Extreme Porsche Pumpkin Carving Contest

Filed to: LifeStyleBy:

Looking back it seemed like a good idea, maybe even a great idea. Now, I'm not so sure. I'll let you be the judge. I was surfing around the other day and I saw this post over on CarDomain.com (for those of you that don't make the jump, it's a post about pumpkin carving and cars) I thought, hmmmm, I wonder if I could do that with a Porsche?

A Porsche Model Like No Other

Filed to: Porsche Artwork, Porsche ProductsBy:
