Here’s a couple of videos for your Monday. They’re both of the 2010 Porsche GT3. The first is on a track. Some pretty cool drifting shots. Much smoother than my herky jerky tail wag turns. This second one is lifestyle video of the GT3 out and about. Some gorgeous coast line views. I’d love to […]

Porsche Cayenne Diesel on display for 3 days only – Later this month, Porsche Australia will display the new Cayenne Diesel at the Melbourne Auto Show. Not sure why only 3 days. Be interesting to see how the diesel version is received. Porsche is expecting 80% of buyers will choose the brand new diesel. [Via […]
Memory Lane Bonus Edition
February 8, 2009 by
Alright, I couldn’t pass this one up. I was putting away the magazines I had used for this series and ran across this one. Of course it HAS to go into the series since it has a 911 Turbo Slantnose on the cover! Another issue of Excellence (obviously) from June 1988. Here are some articles […]
Dry-Sump on 2009 Porsche 911
February 6, 2009 by
Before you dismiss this as “too technical”, you have to watch the video. Porsche rigged up a test system for it’s engine that looks like it’d be more at home at your local carnival than at the Porsche factory (think tilt-a-whirl). The video is short and it’s worth watching. In a nutshell, Porsche has put […]
Porsche Winter Fantasy Camp
February 6, 2009 by
I have a confession to make. I’m sure it’s not going to surprise any other 911 owners out there. With all of the rain we get in the Northwest, it’s pretty common to have wet streets most of the winter. I have a buddy who used to have a 911, and he was a master […]

Tempting Porsches #7
February 3, 2009 by
Here’s the latest findings that tempt me to go out and find some cash to buy. Tempting Porsche #1 “Get Your Sweetheart a Porsche This Year!” At least the ad title was catchy. I’d love to find a 928S or 928S4 to buy some day. This one is tempting because even with the crapola pictures, […]
Porsche Convertible Sliding Off the Road
February 3, 2009 by
I can see driving a Porsche on the snow. No problem there. But driving a convertible, on the snow, with the top DOWN?! I don’t know that the heaters would be enough to make that enjoyable. I had to watch this a couple of times. Just great how they swing around the corner and slow […]

Wendelin Wiedeking made the cover of Fortune Magazine – One site called him “Europe businessman of the year”, but I wasn’t able to confirm that title. He’s all the talk in investment circles…both good and bad I’m sure. I love this quote: “While the rest of the industry swooned, Porsche CEO Wiedeking outsmarted the hedge […]
8th Wonder of the World: Porsche Museum
January 31, 2009 by
Right up there with the Colosseum in Rome and the Great Wall of China (at least for Porscheophiles) is the brand spankin new Porsche Museum officially opening TODAY to all of us “general” Porsche addicts. Sure it’s a bummer we had to wait 3 days to get in, but hey, the Porsche brass deserve a […]
