The 928 has never had the sporting credentials of the 911, but is the penultimate variant one of the best classic Porsches to own? Over nearly two decades in production the 928's output increased from 219 horsepower to 345, and displacement from 4.5 to 5.4 liters. Changes to the model were more than simply adding power. Porsche's traditional method …

Everything You Need To Know About Porsche’s 991.2 GT3
Porsche's GT3 is perhaps the most interesting car they make today, as it's a very driver-focused experience and it's available with a stick shift. Some folks are saying that the new 500 horsepower GT3 is basically a less expensive and less rare 911R, and while that's not expressly true, it may as well be. Is it a road car that is comfortable on the …

For a number of months the online shop at Porsche Driver's Selection was "on holiday" as it went through a complete revamp. The new and improved site recently came back online with an easier to use interface, a whole host of new products and some very attractive price points.

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 …

We've driven pretty much all the Porsche Macan models by now. Heck, we even got to take a Macan GTS up Pikes Peak on a lead/follow expedition with Jeff Zwart. However, to-date, we have yet to drive the 2017 base model Macan. Introduced to the U.S. last year in New York, Porsches smallest, and least expensive, SUV comes equipped with a 2.0 …

As a teenager growing up in the '80s one of my prized possessions was an original pair of Porsche Design folding sunglasses. I don't remember exactly where I got them, but they were a huge hit among my friends and I loved their big frame and the way they simply folded in half for storage. It was a very sad day in my home when I finally lost them. …

My love of Porsche wasn't at first sight, it was love at first sound! I can clearly remember the day I first heard an air-cooled 911. I was 13 and it was the early 80's. Porsches were definitely not common in my neighborhood and until that day I'd only seen them on posters and TV. The throaty burble of the flat-six immediately grabbed my attention …

Mr. Regular doesn't like the 944S. No sir, he does not like it one bit. As a 944S owner this makes me a bit sad. The line in the title is actually by the show's co-writer, The Roman, and for the full depth of both of their critiques you'll need to watch the video. Mr. Regular has reviewed Porsches before, giving lackluster reviews to the Cayman and …

I busied myself with ashing a half-Lucky Strike when the phone rang. On the other end was a dame called 'opportunity'. She was a hard one to turn down, always looking to get into trouble, but with her it was always a good time. "Get on a plane, get yourself to Austin, Texas", she said, "I've got a job for you". I paint myself a skeptic, and the …

As I boarded my flight to head to Atlanta, I knew that my life was about to change. Soon there would be a tipping point, from the moment where I'd never driven a Cayman GT4 transferring into the moment where I had. There were two possible outcomes facing me, either the car would astonish and I'd fall in love, or it could be a letdown and I'd be …
