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.

The Porsche 928 as an Investment
From time to time someone will wander into one of the online Porsche 928 chat forums and ask about resale value or “investment potential” of the 928. 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 …

Just about a month ago I asked the question Can Driving Games help you Improve Your Track Skills? A few of you wrote in and said you thought that most definitely they do. One person suggested that it was a great way to learn a track (similar to walking a track prior to a race) and a few of you thought it might be good to help with eye hand …

A few weeks ago I opened myself up to questions. More specifically, I noted that I'm not a Porsche Expert, but I play one on the Internet and offered to become your Porsche research assistant free of charge. I felt this would be a great opportunity for me to interact with my growing reader base as well as an excellent learning experience for me. …

If you have had the good fortune to visit the current Porsche Museum then you know their company motto of "small but good" has worked well for them. While a little claustrophobic, due to lack of space, Porsche more than makes up for this through the constant change, and superb choice (yes, that's my favorite 917 pictured), of the 20 or so cars …

From Moscow to Ulaanbaatar. Sounds like a movie title more than a route for one of the most grueling off-road competitions in the world. Covering over 7,100 kilimoters, this year's two-week epic will run from July 11th to the 25th. Hoping for a repeat to last year's fantastic debut of the Porsche SUV in the event; Cayennes took the top three …

At first I thought it was a joke (April Fools maybe?). But, then I realized it was still March (at least when I posted this it still was) and April Fool's day is not until tomorrow. The timing seems odd to raise pricing on their most profitable model. According to most economic pundits, we're in the middle of a significant global economic …

Admittedly, not all the news that Porsche releases to the press is exciting. However, what caught my eye on this particular news note, was the display they are planning with regard to various Porsche exhibits. More specifically, on display (among other interesting Porsche cars) will be the 1971 Porsche 917 "short-tail" that won the '24 Hours of …
