My Freaking Amazing Experience in the 911 Porsche Giveaway Car

Today we decided to get someone else’s take on what it was like to drive the Giveaway Porsche. So we surprised Deanna, who works in our office, with the keys and sent her on her way. Below are her thoughts on the drive. Waking up this morning, I didn’t think I would be able to […]

Ultimate Old 911 “Collection”

I was on a flight last week and happened to pull out an older issue of Total 911 magazine from a few months ago. I had read most of it, but still had a few articles to finish up. I got lost in a story I ended up re-reading called Ultimate Barn Find. These stories […]

Wimmer RS Porsche GT2 Ready To Run With the Big Boys

A Google search wants to correct “Wimmer” with “winner” which also seems to be akin to the response of a lot of people, including myself. “Who’s Wimmer?” was my first thought when I stumbled across the 680-hp Porsche GT2 monster they turned out. As it turns out, Wimmer Rennsporttechnik Solingen is a small German tuner […]

Tempting Porsches #15

Today’s Tempting Porsche is one that I’m sure the die hard fans will love to hate. In fact, if you’re a Porsche die hard purist, save yourself some frustration and don’t read any further. This is another one of those Porsches I’ve thought about several times since seeing it a few weeks ago at a […]

Top 5 Porsche Movies of All Time

I’ve been thinking about this post for darn near 6 months now, but just couldn’t bring myself to figure out how to par down the list. I also had grandiose plans of watching all these different movies to have a fresh account to give about why I selected one movie over another. Uh yeah, all […]

Weekly Photo Highlight

This is an amazing picture submitted by Bas. He just earned himself 5 more entries into our PorschePerfect.com Giveaway. If you haven’t checked out our Photo Gallery, click on the link and check it out. It’s not huge, but I’m hoping to get some nice additions to it. Which, speaking of photos, I’m VERY surprised […]

Road Rage Sucks…No Matter What You Drive

One of our readers, Joe, sent me a link to this story and I have to say it’s just plain sad. Sounds like a guy driving a Porsche and another fella in an Altima got into a little spat on the road that led to the Porsche driver literally getting run over and killed. The […]

Driving Gloves: A Steering Wheel’s Best Friend?

As I was on my way to the freeway today in the Giveaway Porsche, I stopped at a red light and happened to look in my rear view mirror. Behind me was a newer Mazda RX-8. A red one. Not a bad looking car, but still a Mazda (sorry, this IS a Porsche blog after […]
