It’s interesting to me to see how people value a Porsche. For some, owning just about ANY Porsche would be a once in a lifetime experience. For others, owning a Porsche is akin to, well, owning a small track hoe. Or maybe better put, they’d rather own a small track hoe than a Porsche. Here’s […]
Porsche 997 Video Worth Watching
December 2, 2008 by
The video is a little long for my tastes. The start is cool and the middle when he’s ripping around the airstrip. What a great way to blow a set of tires! Definitely worth watching for the production at the start and the driving.
Blue Sky…Blue Porsche
November 29, 2008 by
Daily Dose of Imagery has a great picture of a blue Porsche 911 set in a tropical scene. Always a bit inspiring, for what, I’m not sure…but inspiring nonetheless.
2009 Porsche 911 Carrera = Classic Porsche
November 28, 2008 by
I was reading a post about the 2009 Porsche 911 Carrera this week that solidified in my mind why Porsche will continue to be a strong brand and weather the economic conditions much better than other car manufacturers. The title of the post was Porsche 911 Carrera: There still is no substitute. I can’t think […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
November 27, 2008 by
It’s Thanksgiving Day here in the States and I want to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Although it’s just another day, it’s a great reminder to step back and take a look at the things in your life that are going right as well as what’s truly most important to you. […]
VW Takeover? Not so fast…
November 26, 2008 by
Looks like Porsche is stepping a bit slower into its takeover of VW. Porsche Chief Executive Wendelin Wiedeking stated at a news conference recently “Our goal still is to initially increase our stake in VW as soon as possible to over 50%,” but it looks like this will likely not happen in 2008. Funny, Porsche […]
Porsche Cayenne Turbo vs. Red Devil Parachuter Race
November 25, 2008 by
I’ve seen a lot of matchups of one brand verses another. Even supercars versus fighter jets and whatnot. But never a car verses a parachuter. I thought it’d be a bit bogus, but ended up being a pretty decent race. Here’s a link to the video since YouTube won’t let me embed this one: Porsche […]
Another 4 Door “Wonder” in the Porsche Panamera?
November 24, 2008 by
4 doors…911 styling…plenty of power…Seems like the Porsche Panamera could be a decent addition to the Porsche lineup. We’ll start seeing the car in 2009 for the 2010 model year. Engines will be pulled from the Cayenne line with plans for a hybrid at some point in the future. Hopefully they’ll be able to sell […]
911 Slantnose Turbo Cabriolet
November 22, 2008 by
In my quest for a Porsche, I ran across this 1976 911 Slantnose Cabriolet that also had the wide body Turbo look with flared fenders and whale tail. A 1984 3.0 liter had been dropped into the car along with a few other minor improvements. The car was in decent shape with the usual external […]
Porsche Rides VW to the Most Valuable Company in the World!
November 21, 2008 by
When I first saw this story a few weeks ago on CNBC, I couldn’t believe what was happening. Course not being a financial guru, I don’t know that I really even understood what was happening. Last month, Porsche AG announced it had acquired almost 43% of Volkswagen. If that’s not news enough, it also had […]
