Searching for Used Porsche Parts

5/19/200812:10 estFiled to: Porsche PartsBy: 993C4S

When it comes to the maintenance on your Porsche are you a Do It Yourself (DIY) type of owner? If so, and maybe even if you’re not, then this post is for you.

5/14/200812:10 estFiled to: Tires and WheelsBy: 993C4S

Choosing the Right Tire for your Porsche

5/12/200812:10 estFiled to: Tires and WheelsBy: 993C4S

When I purchased my 1997 Porsche 993 C4S the odometer read 24,000 miles.

This basically matched up with the information from my PPI and with my visual inspection upon receipt of the car. Enjoying the car as much …

Porsche wins “Best Performance Engine Award”

5/8/200812:10 estFiled to: NewsBy: 993C4S

For such a large and well know car manufacturer, Porsche doesn't put out a ton of press releases. However, when they do, they do their very best to make sure its good stuff.

The Porsche 928 as an Investment

5/5/200812:10 estFiled to: Porsche 928By: 993C4S

It’s almost always by someone who has never owned a 928 (or any other type of Porsche for that matter). The issue is a complicated one as there are so many variables (condition of the car, how …
