Guntherwerks Has Conceived The Ultimate 993 And It’s Called Sting
For Guntherwerks' latest creation, the classic lines of a 993 are inflated with creatine and carbon widebody panels. The screaming air-cooled motor suits the car's obvious track-oriented focus, and yet, the interior is a palace for a well-heeled Porschephile to sit and bask in the ambiance. Sting, the newest car from the Huntington Beach-based …

Everyone loves a good art car, right? But not all of us have the artistic eye to draw it out ourselves and make it happen. There aren't many 993s in this gorgeous shade of Miami Blau, so it wouldn't be too smart of Magnus Walker to lay down paint over this all-original beauty. Thankfully these days vinyl wrap has gotten to the point that it can …

Looking at the massive center-lock BBS wheels underneath those riveted wheel arches makes one giddy. With its widened track and complete absence of amenities, the GT2 Evo oozes unmistakable purpose—a sort of purpose which borders on crude. That's part of the charm of this old-fashioned brute. The 993 spent a relatively short span of time on the …

https://youtu.be/Rf34n2rxzUI When Porsche opted for water cooling in the late nineties, many were affronted. Some would go on to enjoy the merits of this technology then and there, but there's no denying that with the 996 Carrera, the styling, size, and feel of the car had changed in an uncomfortable sort of way.

After building a couple air-cooled RSR lookalikes, Frank Cassidy found he was struggling to keep up with the modern GT-series Porsches on track days.

Long drags of a cigarette, a few casual sips from the vending machine-supplied coffee, and endless eye candy can keep an attendee buzzing until the wee hours at meets like these.

One of just forty-five 993 RSRs in existence, this 3.8-liter monster is a rare sight. Despite the small numbers, those curvaceous haunches, massive tires, and snorkels in the rear make you wonder why this model is not as well known. Perhaps this example deserves some special attention, since it's Olaf Manthey's very first racing car. A little …

The trouble with limited-run Porsche models is there simply aren't enough to go around, and the 993 Speedster is among the most extreme cases. When Porsche launched a 911-based Speedster in 1989, they initially built 800. When they re-launched the Speedster with the 964 generation in 1994 they made just 936. When the 993 came around, things were …
