I was rearranging my garage last weekend and ran across a box of old Porsche magazines that I’ve hauled around for the last 10 years. My wife relentlessly hassles me every time we move, which consequently has been about 16 times in the last 18 years, about this “stupid heavy box” of old magazines. She […]
Tempting Porsches #5
January 8, 2009 by
I came across this listing yesterday that piqued my interest. Largely due, I’m sure, to the neverending quest of the killer deal. This Tempting Porsche came from a police auction originally with the Techart body work and customizations done after the car was purchased. Here are some details on the car: 2002 Porsche 911 C2 […]

January 7, 2009 by
I’m a bit of a technology junkie, so any opportunity to marry a brand I love with technology, I’m hooked.

Inexpensive Porsches Video
January 5, 2009 by
It’s like a wine lover looking for that sub-$5 bottle of wine that competes with the big boys. Who doesn’t want a deal on a used exotic sports car? You may recall my near purchase experience with a 911 Turbo a few weeks ago (Tempting Porsches #3). I just ran across a show TopGear did […]

January 4, 2009 by
Here are some things I found interesting and/or entertaining from the last week: Electric Porsche conversions available from Florida company: EvPorsche I wouldn’t be surprised if 2009 is known as the “year of electric cars” as we see more and more of these conversion companies pop up in conjunction with manufacturers offering stock electric versions.

Porsche Technology: PDK
December 31, 2008 by
With a name like Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe, it’s gotta be good. Porsche’s PDK, I’ve learned, is an extremely impressive option for both the 911 Carrera and 911 Targa 4 models. Like most Porscheophiles, I’ve never been a big fan of automatic transmissions (or anything that even hints at it) on sports cars, especially Porsches. I suppose […]
