Yesterday I described what I feel is a gap in Porsche’s mid-engine model lineup. If you missed it, you can read it here: Porsche’s Mid-Engine Gap. My solution to Porsche’s mid-engine model gap? I call it Project “Roxster”: Building a Rocking Boxster. Maybe not quite powerful enough to challenge a Carrera GT, but certainly closing […]
New Tuner In Town: Cargraphic
August 26, 2009 by
Move over Porsche tuners, there’s a new sheriff in town. Well, maybe make that volunteer deputy for now. Looks like Cargraphic is jumping into the Porsche Cayenne Diesel customization market. They have a broad range of tuning options for most Porsche models, including the Cayenne, so this isn’t a new arena for them. Established back […]

It’s the final pick in my Ultimate Car List Top 5 mini-series. Today’s car will likely be a surprise to most. Course with the list we have so far, #5 could be just about anything. I went round and round with this one. Lots of cars made the short list for various reasons. Here are […]
Ultimate Car List Top 5 – Pick #3

May 19, 2009 by
A Google search wants to correct “Wimmer” with “winner” which also seems to be akin to the response of a lot of people, including myself. “Who’s Wimmer?” was my first thought when I stumbled across the 680-hp Porsche GT2 monster they turned out.

Gemballa Tornado 750 GTS – One Serious Twister!
April 28, 2009 by
Gemballa has done it again. Course I’m not surprised. After my 7 Days of Porsche Tuners series, I’ve gotten to thinking that tuners really should do more extreme stuff for their flagship vehicles. It’s just not enough to slap a few body mods on, change the ECU and charge twice the going rate for the […]

Porsche Porn Monday
April 20, 2009 by
John over at PorschePurist.com sent me a link to some RUF videos he found on YouTube. He mentions in his post that the 4 videos on the page are “Pure Porsche Fan Porn” and I’d have to concur. I plugged in my favorite below, but check out the series of videos on his site here: […]
