2018 Porsche Paris Auction Results
Artcurial While the star of this particular sale has to be the $2.3 Million sale of a gorgeous Porsche 904, the startlingly large pile of money paid for this 1951 Split-Window 356 is perhaps even more exciting. While the 356 market has been softening lately, it's nice to see a truly great Porsche appreciated for its perfection. This 356 sold …

Late afternoon, Sebring 1969: Jo Siffert, who had won overall in 1968 with Hans Herrmann, is settled into the car, working with his harness. Brian Redman stands by his side, trying to get the attention of a young mechanic. Rico Steinemann, the racing manager for Porsche, gives orders from the front of the car, while engineer Peter Falk strides …

Simply "Air Cooled" in the common tongue, Luftgekühlt is one of those shows that just has to be seen to be believed. If you say it fast enough, the final syllable rolls from 'kyoolt' lazily into 'cult', and I'm not convinced that's not what this event really is at its core. We Porsche folk are really embroiled in the 'cult' of the brand, and we …

Friday Friday morning, the time on the clock reads four hundred hours. Reno is uncharacteristically quiet and calm at this time of day, as we're only the city that nearly never sleeps. Thursday evening, I'd rolled my suitcase into the trunk of Project Boxster and packed a few bottles of water for the early morning journey. The traditional and …

Wikipedia defines a "supercar" as a very expensive and high-performance sports car or grand tourer. Another definition, more comprehensive if you will, was sent to us a while back by a reader who thought a supercar was one that is in the top percentile of all cars from its era with regard to acceleration, top speed, braking and price.

The Scottsdale Auctions are now over, and we've seen what some of our favorite vintage Porsche cars have sold for. So what's the story, are you holding onto your classic for another few years, or are you getting out before the "bubble" bursts?

I've always been a fan of the Porsche 904. Built in 1963, and making its racing debut in 1964, Porsche built a little over 100 of these flat four, street-legal racers in order to meet the FIA Group 3 (Grand Touring) homologation rules. Today, if you want a 904 you have two choices. You can either hire a broker and hope to find a new one (assuming …
