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, […]
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 […]
Memory Lane: Porsche Magazine Covers #1
January 8, 2009 by
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 […]
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 […]
Weekly Porsche Wrap
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.

Happy New Year!
January 1, 2009 by
I’m not planning on doing much today, but I wanted to take a minute to wish everyone here a Happy New Year. We have some pretty big things planned for the readers of this blog and hope, so stay tuned. More importantly though, I hope 2009 is a memory making and safe year for you. […]
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 […]
