Porsche's Boxster Spyder might be the best sports car I've ever driven in stock configuration. It's just so close to perfection that it doesn't really feel like it needs anything. The standard 4-liter flat six makes a perfectly usable 414 horsepower and sprints from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds. The steering is fantastic, the chassis is so well balanced, …

This 365-horsepower Baja Porsche is always ready to party
When we first saw TJ Russell's 911 Baja at SEMA a couple years ago we were floored. The thing was immaculately built to the high standard expected of someone who has spent the better part of a career building Singers, but the attention to actual race-ready componentry and serviceability and off-road prowess is second to none. This isn't just a …

Overlanding is all the rage these days. So much so that even Porsche itself is getting in on the trend. Among the best of the long series of companies to capitalize on this trend, however, is E-Motion Engineering, and establishment proprietor Joey Seely. You may know Joey as the guy behind Project Nasty, a former engineer for BBI Autosport, who …

Porsche has a bit of a Cayman complex. You know what that is, right? The Cayman, being a mid-engine car, is a great platform for big power and track performance. Unfortunately, Porsche has to keep it down a little bit lower than its ultimate potential, because it can't be faster or quicker or lap any given track better than a 911 can. The …

It's a Christmas miracle! The five greatest Porsche GT cars were assembled in one place for a short time to allow the infamous Matt Farah to climb on board and hustle all five around the Porsche Experience Center track in Los Angeles. Five of the most important 911s of the watercooled era on one track? That sounds like the kind of experience every …

Porsche's Taycan has been a point of contention among automotive enthusiasts lately, arguing that it's too expensive, or has too short of a range, or that it's not a "real Porsche". We truly loved the Taycan Turbo S when we got an opportunity to test it last year. And it feels like the future of not only Porsche, but sports cars in general. Even if …

The climb to the daily-drivable supercar has been a long one. While the Miura was nicely appointed, it was the later Maserati Bora that showed the world that a world-beating supercar could actually be a civilized machine. Porsche cemented that idea a few years later with the original Turbo Carreras of the mid-1970s, and ever since other models from …

When Matt Farah left the potholed streets of New York for sunny Los Angeles, he didn't anticipate the roads to be so lousy. The pockmarked streets of the sprawling city required something with suspension travel—something which could absorb undulations. Though his large-but-comforting Ford Raptor was supple enough, he still wanted something small …

"You don't lock the doors when you're driving, you don't even really close them all the way," is not something I've ever heard in a review before, but such is life in a Koenig C62. Not much about this car is like anything you've seen on a normal road car before. Unlike Groups 5 and 6 which were replaced quite rapidly by Group C in the early 1980s, …

If you want the best Boxster money can buy, you get the new Spyder. With gorgeous and aggressive bodywork from Porsche's GT division to match its newly found suspension tweaks and a new 4-liter engine, the new Boxster Spyder is a good bit more hardcore than the previous iteration. Whereas the old Boxster Spyder featured a more road-going compliant …
