PCNA had a very strange sales year in 2019, capping off a year of growth with an impressive new sales record for the company. This is somewhat surprising, considering American sales of Porsche models dipped across the board, with the exception of the newly revamped Cayenne which dominated sales over the last 12 months. The previously …

Turbo Vs. Naturally Aspirated: GT2 RS Clubsport Takes On GT3 Cup
Separated by 400 pounds and 235 horsepower, the comparison of these two is quite intriguing. When the chassis are fundamentally so similar, how does a little extra girth and a different power delivery alter the performances of two racing 911s? The environment plays a major role here. For one, the long straights of Road America obviously favor …

Beware, dear reader, as this is a video that requires some reading. When discussing something as dear to his heart as rally cars, Herr Röhrl tends to stick with his native German. Though the video is in German, the visual language of Porsche racing cars transcends the spoken word, and Herr Röhrl has brought some icons for the latest Top 5 …

One key model was missing from the Macan model range following the 2019 updates to the model- the GTS. The updated model range did somewhat confuse the old nomenclature wherein the model branded as the "Turbo" received a larger displacement engine, despite all models being equipped with turbochargers. Today all V6-powered Macans, including the …

Under the guidance of Jeffrey Cook, a talented student can threaten a hypercar's supremacy in a 991.2 GT3 RS. Once a driver is confident in the GT3 RS' swinging pendulum of a rear and the way it likes to rotate at higher speeds, they can lean on that odd weight distribution and exploit the rear-engine traction in a way that fires them out of faster …

Porsche looked ready for a mega scrap during this weekend's 8 hour race in Bahrain, the fourth round of the 2019/20 FIA World Endurance Championship. After having locked out the front row in GTE Pro qualifying, both Porsches ran incredible races across the first half of the extra-long race. Because of its length this round of the …

Porsche has gotten off to a great start this season in the World Endurance Championship GTE Pro category, having taken two wins from three races thus far, as well as three additional podium place finishes. It's fair to say that after the first three of eight rounds Porsche has a mighty shot at securing another world championship this year. Of …

Modern racecars are hyperbolic in nearly every sense. The tires? Massive. The brakes? Indefatigable. The power figures? Not often fully stated in public, but generally extraordinary. The array of switches? They'd make a DC-8 pilot blush. Not so the 906. The 906 is hyperbolic in one, perhaps two ways. At 580 kilograms it is lighter than any modern …

It might be a hundred pounds heftier than its forebear, but the new 992 Turbo is certainly no slower [in fact it's likely much faster]. Absurdly quick from A to B, the gold standard for all-weather supercars may lose something in terms of pure agility compared to the GT members of the Porsche family, but not much. Absurdly quick over crests and …

Ruben Zeltner may have more modern rally cars in his stable, but his white 996 GT3, kindly nicknamed "Zebra," still makes regular appearances at German hillclimbs and rally events. At this year's ADAC Rallye Köln-Ahrweiler, an 87-mile-long rally outside of Cologne, the two-time Germany rally champion brought his trusty 996 to cover the fourteen …
