This is the second installment in my little walk down memory lane. You can read the first one here. This all came about when I ran across a box of old magazines about Porsche cars in my garage a couple of weeks ago. This week’s magazine is one of my all time favorite magazine covers. […]
Buying A Used Porsche – Books To Check Out
January 14, 2009 by
I picked up a couple of Porsche books as a refresher on buying a used Porsche. Both are longtime staples in the book world on the topic of Porsche and worth reading. Even if you’ve purchased a used Porsche in the past, consider grabbing one or both of these to remind you of things you […]
Giants Fans Destroy Porsche 911 After Game
January 14, 2009 by
There’s nothing like video, and I have a feeling these fans will regret being on this video. This has got to be one of the saddest Porsche related things I’ve seen, not to mention the complete lack of respect for another human being. Get out your box of kleenex and get ready to sob.
Porsche Technology: Variable Turbine Geometry
January 13, 2009 by
I’ll be the first to admit I really don’t know much (okay, I don’t know anything!) about the mechanical workings of a car. I can stumble through a stereo install, maybe change the oil, and drive the thing. That’s about it. I wish I knew more, which is probably why I regularly dream about buying […]
“Rare.” Rare My Asphalt!
January 12, 2009 by
After running across the word “rare” for the hundredth time in Craigslist ads today while looking for a used Porsche 911, I have to say, I’m darn near ready to avoid ANY car where the word “rare” appears in the title or near the price of the car in an ad. My two cents worth: […]

This video cracks me up. Quite the tactic for avoiding speeding tickets.
Gemballa Cayenne & 2009 Commitment to ALL Porsche Models
January 11, 2009 by
I decided this morning, while reading the latest issue of Christophorus Magazine, that I needed to expand my love for Porsche this year to include all models in the family, not just the ones I grew up on. I suppose it’s a lot like the day you decide you should get rid of the mullet, […]
Weekly Porsche Wrap
January 11, 2009 by
Some big news this past week for Porsche, just mostly focused around a couple of events: Porsche takes a majority stake in VW – Monday, Porsche announced it had increased its ownership of VW shares to 50.76%. Not surprising news other than the timing. I didn’t expect his to happen until later in 2009. [Via […]
Porsche 997 GT3 RS Photo
January 10, 2009 by
My son and I were at the local Porsche dealership the other day and they had a gorgeous 997 GT3 RS sitting outside the service door. My son grabbed my iPhone and snapped some quick pictures for the blog. This is one amazing car! I love the orange accents and wheels on the black base […]
#1 Porsche Deal Right Now: Porsche Boxster
January 9, 2009 by
While searching for a Porsche, I’ve spent a lot of time looking at ads, dealerships and eBay trying to get a feel for what’s available on the market, how prices are comparing to blue book prices, and where the best deals are. I already have a decent idea of what I’m looking for, but I’ve […]
