The Newest Video from Porsche Spans 70-years in Just 9 Minutes and 11 Seconds
Nine minutes and eleven seconds isn't much time to cover seven decades. The book Excellence Was Expected now covers nearly 1,700 pages. In just over nine minutes one could probably flip-book through a lot of the pages, and enjoy a few photos, but not much else. The latest edition of the 9:11 video magazine covers a lot of ground in not much time, …
Continue to the full articleAn Exercise In Traction: The Top 5 Fastest Accelerating Porsches
The current iteration of the horsepower wars is frankly a bit absurd. Today's fastest street cars would be required to have full roll cages and chassis certification under NHRA rules. Even the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid is fast enough to require a 6-point cage to make passes at your local drag strip. For the last several decades mind-bending …

Ansel Elgort's "Baby" from the Edgar Wright film Baby Driver is the classic imperturbable action hero. Much like Steve McQueen's Frank Bullitt, Baby is a man of extremely few words. Baby Driver is also a wizard behind the wheel. In the film, Baby flings a variety of cars through Atlanta, ranging from a Subaru Impreza to a Dodge Challenger Hellcat. …

One of the cooler things that Porsche has done this year was to orchestrate this elaborate road trip. The premise of the "Le Mans Unravelled" trip was to show people just how much effort goes into driving the distance of the 2016 Le Mans 24 Hour race winners. When Porsche won the 2016 running of the world's most famous sports car race, drivers Marc …

The 918, with its combination of street appeal and otherworldly performance, has predictably ratcheted up its selling price in the last few years. It's not too difficult to accept the 918 is going for around $1.7 million these days—which is nearly twice the Porsche's base price when first released a few years ago. With 887 horsepower, purely …

Filmed by Stefan Bognar, this short 2-minute film captures a large group of 918 Spyders as they tackle two dozen of Europe's most demanding and famous Alpine passes and roads. The Flüela, Albula and Maloja passes. The Splügen, San Bernardino, Lukmanier and Oberalp passes. These are but a few of the world's most famous Alpine passes that a group of …

If you've been to a Cars and Coffee event or a car show in the last few years, you've probably seen a Blipshift shirt or two. Blipshift's designs are usually quite clever, and are only offered for 24 hours at a time. Recent weekend sales feature three shirts offered for three days, starting on Friday. This weekend's sale is Porsche-centric, …
Continue to the full articleOne Year With Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 Tires
Let me begin by saying that this report on my experience with the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tire is entirely based on subjective feedback. When we purchased our Boxster, the tires were already well worn, and certainly were not even in the same category of performance as the Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires we have now. Not only that, but the old Sumitomo …

This isn't the first recall for the 918 Spyder. We've seen one for a wiring harness issue before and another small recall for a faulty rear control arm. This recall is a voluntary safety recall that deals with the possibility of mismatched screws on the seatbelt mounts and belt reels. Here's what Porsche had to say about the issue. The …
