We first met David Donohue at Barber Motorsport Park in Birmingham, Alabama for a Porsche press event called the "PDK Push". This fun filled, two day trip paired members of the press with driving greats such as Patrick Long, Hurley Haywood and last year's Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona winner David Donohue (just to name a few). The idea behind the …

We've been watching The Price is Right for at least 25 + years and in all that time neither one of us can remember a Porsche as a prize - although it is possible we missed an episode or two. Earlier this week a contestant had the opportunity to win a 2010 Porsche Boxster (along with some cash and a trip) in the Showcase Showdown. His bid of …

As I was editing today's post about this year's 944Fest and preparing to publish it, I suddenly remembered that it was the two year anniversary of PorschePurist and I was struck by how far the site has come since my first couple of posts (first post, second post). As of today, just shy of 1,000,000 unique visitors have found their way to …

When traveling for business, I like to travel light. The bare essentials are all I need. If it can't fit into my wheeled carry-on or soft-sided suit carrier then there's no reason to bring it along. In fact, I once managed a three week trip to Singapore out of a soft-sided suit carrier and a brief-case (thank God for hotel dry cleaners, …

It feels somewhat ironic, writing a review of the Panamera Turbo for a site called “PorschePurist”. There’s nothing about this five-meter-long sedan that would appeal to most old-school Porsche enthusiast. It’s a front-engined, water-cooled, self-shifting four-door that weighs as much as four 909 Bergspyders stacked vertically. In the modern …
