Why A Pre-Owned Porsche Is The Perfect Entry Level Strategy
Since the introduction of the 912 model in 1965, Porsche's best selling models have always been their entry level positioned cars. For a number of years, the 912 outsold the 911, some years even at a rate of 2 to 1. The 914 was Porsche's best selling model through the 1970s, that is until the introduction of the 924. Then, the 944 carried that …

The year 2014 still has just over a month and a half left before the calendar is spent, but R&T is getting a jump on things, already announcing their winner of 2015 Performance Car of the Year (PCOTY). The 991 GT3 faced a tough year in the awards arena this year due to the engine recall, which more than likely cost it Motor Trend's Drivers Car …

Porsche's new 918 Spyder is an out-and-out performer, a perfectionist company's vision of a no-compromises-made supercar. Ultimately, Porsche's aim was to build an impressive machine, and it's an understatement to say that they have succeeded. They didn't cut corners, they couldn't have. Everything about this car was carefully calculated before it …

At this point, if you're a Porsche fan, you might not recognize the name Rob Dickinson, but you definitely know his company, Singer Vehicle Design. The Porsche 911 Re-imagined by Singer is, in my humble opinion, the ultimate in Porsche porn and as such has been the subject of more videos then Jenna Jameson. That's why when XCAR emailed us this …

In the glory days of the 917, one of my favorites was Jo Siffert. An accomplished F1 driver, he found the big sports cars a good fit as well, and slipped easily back and forth during the season. Having piloted a 906 at Sebring in 1966, he had been in a 910 in 1967 , and won that race outright in a 907 with Hans Hermann in 1968. A 908 he shared with …
