Do You Know Why Porsche’s Iconic Sports Car Is Called ‘911’?

12/29/20177:57 estFiled to: Porsche FactoidsBy: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

A good watch should be timeless. It should look at home on your wrist year-in and year-out. Like a good watch, the 911 is a vehicle beyond the vagaries of seasonal fashion. After more than fifty years, the car has remained true to its original ethos. REC Watches' latest Kickstarter is an endeavor to create a watch based on parts from salvaged …

2016 Porsche Monaco Classic Auction Results

5/17/20169:31 estFiled to: For SaleBy: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

Monaco was an interesting auction for Porsche buyers (and sellers), as there were a few exceedingly rare lots that you're unlikely to see ever again, and haven't ever seen before.

Earliest “Production” 911 In Existence Found Hidden In Plain Sight

4/15/20155:12 estFiled to: Porsche CarsBy: Bradley Brownell6 Comments

This has to be one of the single strangest stories I've ever heard in the Porsche world. Allegedly, this Porsche was purchased by the current owner (his name is Jay) in 1984, and the car was already a bodge-job of some wacky elements. It had wide RSR-esque fenders, some weird tack on rocker panel covers, a ducktail engine lid, and some IROC bumpers …

The First Porsche at Indianapolis

5/4/20143:01 estFiled to: Porsche MotorsportsBy: Bradley Brownell10 Comments

Porsche has a long history with racing, but by 1966, they still had not ventured into the oldest motoring event in the United States, the Indianapolis 500, and would not for another 14 years.  One of the most grandiose spectacles of all time, the Indy 500 has been held at the “yard of bricks” since 1911.  By the mid-1960s, most of the privateer …
