Here’s What It’s Like To Drive The Five Greatest Porsche GT Cars Of All Time

12/24/20203:11 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Bradley BrownellComment

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 …

Vonnen Performance Builds The Hybrid 911 That Porsche Won’t

3/9/202012:26 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

The Vonnen Shadow Drive system of aftermarket hybrid power addition for 991 and 981 Porsches (as well as 997.2 and 987.2) is as seamless as it is incredible. With an extra 150 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque added to your Porsche, while not affecting your tailpipe emissions or fuel economy in the least, this hybrid system adds all kinds of fun …

The Boxster Spyder Is The Roofless GT4 You Really Want

1/6/20204:05 estFiled to: Porsche BoxsterBy: Bradley BrownellComment

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 …

Here’s What It’s Like To Drive The 2020 Porsche 992 Carrera 4S On The Tail Of The Dragon

10/8/201910:51 estFiled to: 992By: Bradley BrownellComment

Porsche really wanted to make a splash with the new 992-generation of its iconic 911. The company invited several automotive journalists, including friend of the site Matt Farah, to Germany to drive the new 911 around for a couple of days. So far, that's pretty standard for how this industry works. Then came the unorthodox bit. Porsche instructed …

How Can Porsche Improve On The 991.2 GT3 RS?

9/27/20197:48 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Tommy ParryComment

"This is the most track-focused, surgically precise, lightest, most downforcey 911 that you can buy," Farah begins. The stance and aerodynamic additions leave nobody guessing what this monster is meant to do—as will the exhaust note. At 9,000 rpm, the scream the 4.0-liter makes sounds like Armageddon—the good kind. We're all familiar with the car, …

This Gulf RSR Replica Is What California Dreams Are Made Of

6/19/201911:39 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

John Gunderson has a knack for bringing the right people into the picture. When he wanted to blend the urgency and colorful exterior of the legendary 917 with a usable road car, he came up with this. A '73 911 Blending the classic Gulf livery, a 2,200-pound frame, and a 350-horsepower motor from Rothsport, is bound to convert even the most cynical …

The 1986 Porsche 928S With A Manual Is The German Muscle Car To Get

3/8/20194:08 estFiled to: Porsche 928By: Bradley BrownellComment

This gorgeous blue-skinned shark belongs to Muscle aficionado and personality behind House of Muscle on YouTube, Mr. Mike Musto. Both the car and its owner are about as nice as they come, and it's quite clear that Zack Klapman and Mike have quite the rapport, being that they worked together for a number of years. When Mike was in Los Angeles with …

Matt Farah Takes His Safari 911 For An Urban Adventure

11/7/201811:40 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Bradley BrownellComment

When you think about the perfect Los Angeles city car, you don't necessarily jump to a 1980s Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2, but once Leh Keen has fiddled with the suspension and interior, it just might be. With a softer suspension, more tire sidewall, and taller ride height, a Safari 911 is an excellent machine for running around in the mean streets of …

Is Porsche’s 718 Cayman GTS Better Than The Old GT4?

7/22/201811:35 estFiled to: Porsche CaymanBy: Bradley Brownell2 Comments

The steady march of progress often comes with some compromises. In Porsche's case, the naturally aspirated 981-generation GT4 has given way to faster and more capable turbocharged 718-generation mid-engine monsters. With a flatter torque curve and an earlier power delivery, the 718 Cayman GTS puts up a faster lap-time at nearly any track than the …

Well Sorted 914/6 Proves An Excellent Canyon Carver

2/16/20184:00 estFiled to: Porsche 914By: Bradley BrownellComment

If you could have the car you drove to high school prom back, would you want it? Would it be as cool as Marco's 914-6? I drove a rusty 1991 Ford Mustang convertible to my prom, so he's definitely got me beat. This white mid-engine beauty is an impressive beast of a Porsche, now running a 2.5-liter twin-plug flat-six engine pumping out about 220 …
