Updating The Porsche Bible: The New Edition Of Excellence Was Expected Is Bigger, Better, And More

11/1/20193:13 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

Karl Ludvigsen is simply in his element when it comes to the history of the Porsche brand. This epic set of tomes is the most complete history of Porsche that has ever been written by anyone, bar none, end of discussion. Since I started here at FlatSixes, I've relied on the old 2008 edition of this book to provide historical context and deep dive …

Book Review: Our Le Mans – The Film, The Friendship, The Facts

Book Review of Our Le Mans The Film The Friendship The Facts

Much has been written about the movie, the story and its characters in the 47 years since Le Mans first debuted on the big screen. So much so, one might wonder what's left to publish? Haven't all the stories been told? Fortunately, for those McQueen and Le Mans fans who just can't get enough, Delius Klassing latest tome, Our Le Mans - The Film, …

Dr. Jim Lowe, the “World’s Fastest Neurosurgeon”

12/15/201712:37 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Chris CushingComment

Dr. Jim Lowe had better hope that no other Neurosurgeons decide to take up air racing. Barring that, his title as World's Fastest Neurosurgeon is probably pretty safe. Dr. Lowe is also a pretty serious contender for the "most interesting man in the world". In addition to racing, Dr. Lowe is a golfer, competitive surfer, and 30-year veteran of the …

10/9/201711:47 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Pepper GirlComment

how to build a Porsche 911 from LEGO

Over the years we've shown you many different Porsches built from LEGO. Everything from full size 911 RSR and 919 Hybrid race cars to a LEGO built 911 with working suspension. You've probably seen this viral video of a LEGO Technic 911 GT3 RS being crashed or perhaps looked in awe at the work done by master Porsche LEGO builder Malte Dorowski. …

Porsche Boxster and Cayman – The Complete Story Book Review

4/10/20179:11 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: 993C4S1 Comment

When it comes to books about Porsche, the numbers written about the company, its racing history, the venerable 911, and all its variants, are almost immeasurable. That's not the case, however, when it comes to the Boxster and Cayman. Sure, you have the basics we've come to expect with any model like Adrian Streather's "Buyer's Guides" and …

Think You Know Everything About Porsche? This Book Will Prove You Wrong!

3/23/20172:37 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Pepper GirlComment

As the forward says, this isn't a history book and it's not a work of reference. Instead, 111 Porsche Stories That You Should Know is just that, a compilation of tales, anecdotes and magical treasures about our favorite marque. Avid readers of FLATSIXES.com are sure to be familiar with a number of the stories covered in 111 Porsche Stories …

Book Review: Carrera 2.7 – The Soul of Porsche’s Legendary Carrera 2.7 RS Lives on Within the Carrera 2.7 MFI

10/6/20169:52 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Wallace WyssComment

Some brands of cars have rather skimpy biographies available. Like Rodney Dangerfield, they don’t get no respect. Take the Iso Grifo for instance, there is no book I'm aware of that shows every variation, every color, every nut and bolt, every serial number, yadda yadda. Yet, fortunately, because of their small numbers, they have multiplied greatly …

Book Review of Porsche Sounds

These days when you buy a book you tend to have choices. Normally, you can choose to purchase an electronic version for the e-reader of your choice, a hard or soft copy version if you like the feel of real paper or want a coffee table book, or even an audio book for those that prefer someone else to do the heavy lifting and just want to listen …

Book Review: “The Porsche 924 Carrera – Evolution to Excellence”

2/29/20162:10 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Pepper GirlComment

Can any model Porsche truly be "forgotten"? You would think not, but the 924 Carrera is one so few talk about that maybe it has. And it shouldn't be. Porsche 924 Carrera - Evolution to Excellence by Roy P. Smith explains why. A homologation model, the 924 Carrera was introduced in 1980 to qualify the 924 to compete in Group 4 racing. A …

Book Review: “Carrera: The 4-Cam Motor And The Early Years Of Porsche Motorsport”

12/12/201510:32 estFiled to: Porsche BooksBy: Wallace WyssComment

There are books that publishers can assign writers and they will come back with a competent manuscript. However, this is a book that has so much detail, that I, as a sometime publisher, would find it impossible to assign because it literally must have taken years of work. You can’t pay someone for that much time to find that many facts. For …
