1. Steve McQueen in Le Mans: Art Graphic Novel

Masterfully crafted by Sandro Garbo and the team at Garbo Studio, Steve McQueen in Le Mans fuses a blistering graphic novel with a bold and vivid tribute to McQueen himself, a man who gave new hope and meaning to car enthusiasts around the world. Inspired by 1971͛s iconic Le Mans͛ movie, which overcame its initial box office struggle to find true cult status, Garbo’s creation pays homage to the movie, its race, the cars that fired on all cylinders and the man who made it all possible.

3. LEGO Technic Porsche 911 RSR

If you know someone who loves Porsches and LEGOs, you’re in luck. There are a few Porsche LEGO sets available, but this is one by far our favorite. It’s a very detailed LEGO Technic creation, featuring 1,580 pieces and once built, it measures over 5″ high, 19″ long, and 7″ wide. If you’re looking for something more affordable, check out our list of the best LEGO Porsche sets.

4. RASTAR Porsche 911 GT3 RS remote control car

Need a gift idea for a younger Porsche enthusiast in your life? If they’re not old enough to drive a Porsche, this might be the next best thing. And even if they are old enough, you might be surprised how much joy a remote control car can bring to an adult. This is an officially licensed Porsche 911 GT3 RS remote control car, 1:14 scale. While the remote functions are a bit basic compared to more expensive R/C cars, its price makes it a great gift idea.

5. Forza 7 Motorsport

Let’s face it, the closest most of us will ever come to driving the new Porsche GT2 RS is while day dreaming away at our next Cars & Coffee event or digitally in games like Forza Motorsport 7. That’s why you should get yourself a copy (and an Xbox console if needed).

6. A smartphone mount

A few of our Porsches are newer and included navigation. However, the modules are getting old and with all the construction here in the North East I’m relying more and more on my smartphone to do the heavy lifting vs. the built in nav. The same holds true for our air-cooled cars that don’t have navigation. The issue we always run into is where to best put our phone so as not to block any of our instruments and not distract us while driving. For that reason, I’m not a huge fan of the mounts that clip into the CD player. I also don’t like clipping anything to my vents or using a suction cup on my dash (I’ve found they leave marks and if you’re not paying attention and accidentally whack one too hard you could even break your vent). That’s why I like mounts that have the option to mount to the glass of your windshield. It not only gives you the best positioning options, but any marks left behind can easily be wiped clean. After lots of trial and error, the mount that works best for us is the iOttie Easy One Touch.

7. Porsche 70 Years: There Is No Substitute


Having just reviewed Randy Leffingwell’s most recent Porsche book, we can confidently say this belongs in your library. Either as a gift for yourself or for a loved one, at under $40.00 you can’t go wrong. With 256 pages of book, complete with 200 full color photographs and 50 additional black and white images, at nearly 5 lbs this book weighs almost as much as the coffee table you’ll put it on. there is a whole lot of bang for the buck in this one.

8. Something from Porsche Design

Nothing beats a gift from Porsche’s official lifestyle brand, Porsche Design. The company offers a wide range of gift ideas, from watches to backpacks. There are also plenty of Porsche-themed apparel and accessories that sure beats the off-the-shelf shirt you were planning to buy anyways. If you don’t have a clear gift idea, shop around at Porsche Design. With its assortment of offerings, we’re willing to bet you’ll find something for that Porsche enthusiast in your life.
