GEMBELLA Goes The Racing Route

I’ve been debating for a while now about whether or not to post this, then decided today that given it’s history, GEMBALLA is too closely tied to the Porsche community to not post something. Plus these cars just looking stinkin amazing in my opinion. Announced a couple of weeks ago, it seems that one of […]

The Ultimate Catch From The Rhine River

Mels, one of our PorschePerfect.com readers, sent me a link to this video yesterday. Just absolutely crazy…and sad. Seems a 20-something buddy of the Porsche 911 Turbo owner drive the car off the dock into the water. Since we can’t see the pier, it’s tough to imagine why someone would drive onto it in the […]

Porsche 911 Speedster Upgrades Courtesy Of SpeedArt

For me, the Speedster models represent one of the most desirable variations of the 911 series. I’ve always loved these current Speedsters Porsche releases every few years. I can’t say that I can imagine improving on what Porsche has put together in the Speedster model. SpeedArt has attempted to do just that, though. They put […]

Porsche Officially Launches The New Porsche 911 (991)

This morning, Porsche released an announcement officially launching the Porsche 911 for 2012. This is the new 991 generation. Can’t believe the 911 is now 48 years old! Oh how time flies. The new 911 Carrera is completely redesigned, yet remains very much recognizable as a Porsche 911. I think I like the redesigned interior. […]

Porsche Cayenne Off Road Testing By MotoMan

This morning someone sent me a link to Blip.tv to let me know about the automotive content they have on the network. This is a short little informal video review of the Porsche Cayenne in some off road conditions. It’s a little slow, but still entertaining…and makes you want to hit some back country roads […]

Steve McQueen’s Porsche 911 Fetches A Hefty $1.375 Million

Yesterday, RM Auctions slammed the gavel down on a $1.25 million $1.375 bid for the infamous Porsche 911 Steve McQueen owned personally and used in footage of the movie Le Mans. I’ve been wondering how much the car would go for since mentioning the upcoming auction back in March (Chance To Own Steve McQueen’s Porsche […]

Porsche 911 Teaser Video For 2012 Model

I love the footage in this video. Especially the little kids laughing when around the car. Puts a smile on your face. Crazy how little of the engine you can now see when the lid is open.

Porsche 928 Destruction Video

Frankly, I’m not really sure what to think of this video. On the one hand, I’m sure it will make a lot of Porsche purists happy. On the other, the destruction of a piece of Porsche history, no matter what it is, is just plain sad. I suppose it’s no worse than the Porsche 911 […]
