The 2020 Porsche Macan GTS Is Quite A Remarkable Thing

2/11/202012:33 estFiled to: Porsche MacanBy: Bradley BrownellComment

If you give a gorgeous Miami Blue Macan GTS to Henry Catchpole in Portugal, you're going to end up with an edifying and insightful video about the car in question, and because the Carfection crew is so good, it'll have delightful visuals and editing to boot. The real question here is whether or not the new Macan GTS is as good as the old one was. …

Ride Onboard With The Legendary Walter Rohrl As He Puts A 718 Cayman GT4 Through Its Paces

11/8/20193:49 estFiled to: Porsche CaymanBy: Tommy Parry1 Comment

Though he's now a septuagenarian, Walter Rohrl hasn't slowed down much. He's as wiry as he was in his prime, and he still takes every outing on track—even one with a passenger sitting shotgun—very seriously. Yes, a smile occasionally breaks across his stern visage, but his focus never fades. His famously precise driving is the result of five …

Comparing the 992 Carrera S Against a Rawer Rival

6/27/201911:37 estFiled to: 992By: Tommy ParryComment

While its undoubtedly true the latest iterations of the Carrera have softened their image, expanded their midsection, and grown more commercially appealing, they still retain a level of performance that wows the enthusiast. Especially when considering the gains brought by modern turbocharging and PDK gearboxes, there's not much the typical user is …

What Is The New 911 Speedster Like To Drive On The Road?

5/24/20198:19 estFiled to: Porsche 991By: Bradley BrownellComment

A few years ago, we discussed the idea of a GT3 Cabriolet (below). Some of us thought it was a great idea, and others not so much. It took almost five years, but Porsche finally built something that is basically the 991 GT3 Cabriolet that we asked for, but better. Consider the 991.2 Speedster a send off for the chassis. This is among the last cars …

The Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid Contains A Wonderful Dichotomy

2/12/20199:33 estFiled to: Porsche PanameraBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche's big wagon has nearly 700 horsepower, it'll go nearly 200 miles per hour, and it weighs more than 5000 pounds. Somehow it is big and comfortable but also incredibly sporty. Somehow it manages to dawdle around in silent electric-only mode, then seconds later crank up a huge turbocharged V8 when you swap to Sport mode. It can move five …

In Defense Of The Manual Transmission

11/6/20185:02 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Bradley BrownellComment

"You can't really have a favorite shift with a paddle shift, can you?", says Catchpole in this recent Carfection video exploring the loveliness of a proper manual gearbox. A nicely tuned dual-clutch flappy-paddle gearbox is a glorious thing on a race track, they're perfect, but maybe a little too perfect. There is something to be said for enjoying …

Why Porsche Doesn’t Owe Enthusiasts Anything, Really

7/17/20189:25 estFiled to: VideosBy: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche has been building cars longer than most people reading this have been alive. For seven decades they've been tearing up their own script and occasionally re-writing it wholesale. People complained when 356 production ended in favor of the heavier and more expensive 911. People complained when the 964 debuted because it had coil springs of …

Seeking The Greatest Road In The World In A Porsche 718 Cayman GTS

3/5/201812:39 estFiled to: Porsche CaymanBy: Bradley BrownellComment

The section of C-28 highway, known as 'Puerto De La Bonaigua' is a sinewy ribbon of road on the Spanish side of the border between France and Spain. Having lived in Spain myself for a while, I have been on some pretty amazing mountain roads, and find it not difficult to believe that this one might be an incredible route. Greatest in the world is …

Making The Analog Driver’s Case For Porsche’s Carrera T

2/20/20186:56 estFiled to: Porsche 991By: Bradley BrownellComment

The 991 Carrera T is, in a way, the anti-Porsche, or perhaps recalls the Porsche that Porsche used to be. As the company's sports car line continually focuses on quicker lap times at the expense of driver engagement, and the company's non-sports cars become ever more the focus of the sales floor, the Carrera T is anti-thematic for the brand in a …

Porsche’s New Cayenne Is A Guilty Pleasure For Henry Catchpole

11/7/20178:22 estFiled to: Porsche CayenneBy: Bradley BrownellComment

review of the 2018 Porsche Cayenne by Henry Catchpole

After leaving EVO magazine, Henry Catchpole spent a bit of time at the now seemingly-defunct DriveTribe. He's now a part of the wildly excellent Carfection YouTube channel (what used to be X-Car). We're quite happy that Henry has ended up at Carfection, because he's always counted among our favorite video review specialists. He's perhaps even …
