If you want to stand out on Nurburgring touristenfarhten days, picking a GT-series Porsche isn't the right way to go. They're ubiquitous around the Green Hell. Maybe certain generations of BMW M3s are nearly as common there, but as far as production-series track cars go, there aren't many more popular than the Porsche 911. So why did Robert …

This 670-HP Porsche 993 Hillclimb Racer is Too Much To Handle
https://youtu.be/cAOacrcR-eY Time hasn't slowed Austrian hillclimbing legend Rupert Schwaiger.

The Rowe Racing team of Earl Bamber, Laurens Vanthoor, and Nick Tandy took their Porsche GT3 R to victory lane after a hard-fought day-long battle which ended with the car just minutes from blowing up its transmission.

A battle between BTCC's bad boy Jason Plato and ex-F1 driver Karun Chandhok again solidifies the simple truth that a garden-variety Porsche can punch well above its weight. Half the price, heavier, less powerful, and arguably less track-oriented, and yet the Porsche 992 Carrera 4S still performs startlingly well against a McLaren 570S around Castle …

Rich chocolate leather abounds, there are more screens than a Pimp My Ride creation, the carpet is perfectly thick, and the cockpit has just the right amount of buttons and knobs to look detailed without looking fighter-planeish.
