Inside the Boxer Engine with Hans Mezger

3/27/201812:28 estFiled to: VideosBy: Chris Cushing2 Comments

Hans Mezger is 88 years old, and his career designing engines spans decades. Mezger's hands were in everything from the 1960's Porsche Formula 1 racers to the 911 GT1. His engines remained in 911s through the 997 GT3 4.0 and 997.1 Turbo. It really feels as though everything Porsche produced since is compared to the Mezger flat-sixes. This family of …

Watch Nelson Piquet as he Laps Interlagos in a Porsche 908/2 Spyder

11/9/201610:32 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Pepper GirlComment

We've been in love with the Porsche 908 for some time now. I don't know if it's suspension activated ailerons in the 908LH or the open cockpit of the 908/2, but there's something about that flat-8 engine howling with pleasure as it completes lap after lap that just puts a big smile on my face. Interestingly, the 908/2 started as a …

Once In A Lifetime Video: Onboard The Gulf 917K With Bruce Canepa as he Battles Gunnar Jeannette in a 908

8/27/20169:25 estFiled to: Vintage RacingBy: Bradley Brownell3 Comments

This is an incredible onboard video, possibly one of the best out there. Captured by Racer.com, they fitted a GoPro to Bruce Canepa's head, and allowed us to ride along inside his Flat-12 powered 917. The windshield makes for a dramatic viewpoint, but the inside of the Porsche is almost equally exciting. You can see Bruce slamming the shift lever …

The Collier Collection, in conjunction with Stanford's The Revs Institute, always bring some interesting machinery to Monterey, and they always have Gunnar Racing there to help them prepare the cars with mega-talent Gunnar Jeannette on hand to drive. This year is no different, as they have brought out a pair of lovely Porsche-powered racers in the …

Check Out This Long-Tail 918 Spyder Creation

7/19/20169:49 estFiled to: Porsche PrototypesBy: Pepper Girl1 Comment

What a beauty! Too bad it only exists in the digital world for right now. Created by a group of six designers for real "car guys", this 908-04 Concept is built for Gran Turismo 6 as one of their Vision GT concepts*. Why Did We Call It A Long-Tail 918 When The Designers Call is a 908-04? While the designers say their idea was to "make a …

The Unequaled Porsche 2016 Amelia Island Auction Preview

3/2/20163:25 estFiled to: For SaleBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

There has been considerable discussion lately as to if the market has hit its peak and is starting to trend down. Most of that discussion revolves around the reduced sales numbers (year over year) from Scottsdale and Paris. However, what no one seems to be talking about, or even suggesting, is that maybe the lower sales numbers are a simple result …

14 Of Porsche’s Most Significant Moments Of 2014

12/28/201411:39 estFiled to: NewsBy: Bradley Brownell6 Comments

1. 919 Program Finds Success Competing head-to-head with sports prototype racing giants like Audi and Toyota is no mean feat, and Porsche can legitimately say that they put up a significant effort in 2014. Considering that this was the first year of the program, they should be quite happy with their results and proud of their accomplishments. …

2014 Bonhams’ Bond Street London Auction Results

12/3/20146:12 estFiled to: For SaleBy: Bradley BrownellComment

I'm a little embarrassed to say that I hadn't heard about this sale until after it'd already occurred. No matter, though, as this sale had four very nice Porsche cars up for bid, and while one was a no-sale, the rest of them sold for very good money. We're going to take a look at each of these cars in a little more depth and see if we can determine …

Ferkel The Nein-11 vs. The 908/14

11/24/20143:56 estFiled to: Porsche MotorsportsBy: Bradley Brownell6 Comments

When life gives you LeMons, make racecars! Life is weird sometimes. A couple of months ago, I mentioned how awesome I thought it would be to pit the two most well known San Francisco Bay Area based Porsche LeMons cars against each other in a tongue-in-cheek 'battle royale' with a journalist hot-shoe at the wheel [note: I'm a warm-shoe at …

Video: Porsche Showcases a “Bulletproof” 996 and a Convertible 928 in Museum Secrets Part 2

8/9/201211:56 estFiled to: Porsche MuseumBy: Pepper GirlComment

Porsche's Museum Secrets series is quickly turning into one of my favorite video sets on the Porsche YouTube channel. Earlier this week we showed you Porsche Museum Secrets Part 1 featuring the museum's newest storage facility housing Porsche's vast collection of more than 500 cars.
