Over the last few years Bring A Trailer has been a haven for people seeking interesting and rare Porsches, and that's a result of the site having listed over 13,000 Porsches or Porsche-related ephemera auctions. Heck, there are currently eighty Porsche auctions live on that site right this very minute. Here are just a few of the highlights. We put …

I can’t stop thinking about the Porsche 993-based Ruf Bergmeister prototype
Some of the best Porsches of all time have been stripped down speed machines built explicitly for the purpose of going up a hill as quickly as possible. Ruf took inspiration from the Bergmeister cars Porsche built in the 1950s and 60s, namely the RS 60 Spyder, various iterations of 906, and the zero-compromise 909 Bergspyder, to build this new …

Don't you wish you could build your dream car? That was Ferdinand Porsche's dream. "I couldn't find the sports car of my dreams, so I built it myself." That's what he said. And that's what Chris Runge said when he decided to build the R2. This is his vision of a 1990s supercar built on a chassis and bodywork of his own design, but with Porsche …

If you've been hanging around this site for a while, you'll probably know that we used to be called 993C4S, because the founder of the site had a gorgeous example in his own garage. It had a whole lot more than 1100 miles, because around here we actually like to drive our Porsches, but it's still nice to see what these cars looked like when they …

In 1993, production of the BTR2 began. As the second production car in RUF's lineup, it took its name from the G-body-based BTR unveiled a decade earlier. Due to a classic configuration draped in modern skin, the BTR2 was an odd product; something which straddled the fence that separates the crazy seventies and the tech-heavy nineties. The BTR …

Though the shape and the sheer presence of Rauh-Welt's vehicles are all inspired by old-world motorsport, their striking appearance is appreciated by more folks loitering in parking lots than racing fans sitting in grandstands. Not every one of Akira Nakai's creations make it to the track, but this particular example, thankfully, does. There's a …

Among the boutique 911 idealists, the one operation which seems to best blend superior coachwork and cosmetic taste with track aplomb is Gunther Werks. Their M.O. is fairly simple: apply the GT3 concept to a 993, clothe it in carbon fiber, leave as little space in the wheel wells as much as possible, refine the suspension setup with top-shelf …
Continue to the full articleFrom Tough Guy to Gentleman: The Transition from 964 Turbo to 993 Turbo
Calling the last of the single-turbo 911s a thug might be a trifle harsh, but even the relatively refined 964 was a challenging car to manage for anyone but the less than the truly talented. Its adoption of the Weissach Axle, a device pioneered in the 928, softened its edges somewhat, but it wasn't until the combination of that predictable rear …

Gunther Werks' Sting has the presence of an old racing car. It squeezes 295- and 325-section tires underneath its widened carbon haunches, as well as Fuchs-style wheels and massive Brembo CCM-R brakes. It looks nothing but business, and yet its adjustable suspension makes it a civilized thing to drive slowly. I may be a bit biased, but I think …
Continue to the full articleWhich is the Right 996 for You? A Primer on the Unloved Generation
Love it or hate it, the 996 is an undeniably good value nowadays. With the more common models, the price point allows young enthusiasts to join the proud family of 911 owners. The GT range and more tech-heavy examples still command considerable money, and that's for good reason. At the top of the 996 totem pole are the GT3 and GT2, and those two …
