Porsche Driver's selection recently released three (3) new collections: the Golf Collection, the updated Martini Collection and the RS 2.7 Collection. In fact, unless you're blind, you must have noticed their banners flying right above this post and others. Well, fortunately for us, the good folks at Driver's Selection saw fit to send us a goodie …

Walter Röhrl Takes Us On Track In The Cayman GT4
Since the Cayman GT4s "official" introduction a few weeks ago, we've been learning more and more about its track capabilities. One of our best sources of information came from Chris Harris when he compiled his full, on-track review in this video. However, that's not to say there isn't more to learn or more to see. Today's video, while admiteddly …

UPDATE: A number of you complained here, on facebook and via email about this app only being available for iOS. Porsche must have heard you because it's now available for Android devices. The link to download is at the end of the review. What’s your favorite road for a Sunday drive in your Porsche? Is it a special route to work? Back …
Continue to the full articleVideo Review: Wringing The 918 Spyder’s Neck
The 918 Spyder is entirely crafted of superlatives. It does things that other cars can only dream about when tucked safely in their garages at night. It is a tech machine on wheels. It is, as Mike Spinelli puts it in the latest TEST/DRIVE video, "science fiction on four massive Michelins". It's a nerdy adrenaline-junkie's dream, to say the …

In this new video from the Brit glossy rag EVO, vaunted racer-cum-journalist Tiff Needell debates the merits of the new Porsche Targa 4S. The newest bodystyle of 991 offers an excellently framed view of open-air motoring, but that comes at a cost. Is the Targa 4S a good value? How does the extra weight of the mechanically convoluted top mechanism …

We last drove the 911 Carrera S in Vermont last winter at an event Porsche held at Sugarbush, Mountain in Vermont. At the time we were comparing the Carrera S to the Carrera 4S and learning just how capable both variants are in the snow. Prior to that it was a 2012 model that we pushed up the Mt. Washington Auto Road in New Hampshire and gained a …

Last October Porsche invited us out to Oregon to drive the entire 2014 Panamera line-up. From that, amongst others, we gave you our review of the 2014 Panamera GTS. However, it's always nice to see another view and especially one done via video. Our friends over at DRIVE released this TEST/DRIVE production a few days ago and features Mike Musto as …

Rob Siegel, author of "Memoirs of a Hack Mechanic", might be best known for his love and affinity of BMW (he's written a monthly column called "The Hack Mechanic" for the BMW Car Club of America's magazine for the last 25 years) but that doesn't mean he's not a Porsche fan or owner. In fact, he drops a metaphoric Porsche "bomb" right up front and …

If you purchased a car in recent years, chances are that it came outfitted with all-season tires. This generally works, albeit not terribly well unless you live in a place like Florida or California, where seasons don’t often include temperatures below 45 degrees and any sort of precipitation. All-season tires have long been considered “no season” …

I drove my first Porsche as a college kid in 1979 – a new 928. It was cool — not Steve McQueen cool, more like James Bond cool. With its wild pop-up headlights, swoopy interior and powerful V-8 under the long hood, I couldn’t conceive of a woman driving this car. It was a guy’s car. I’ve driven a lot of Porsches in the ensuing three decades and …
