Porsche Trade: Steinway for Porsche???

In keeping with the interesting things people want to trade for a Porsche and for their Porsche, I ran across probably one of the strangest to date.  Here’s how the ad reads: Would you be interested in trading your car for a Steinway grand? High end only.  Audi/BMW or Porsche. Given the potentially high prices […]

Weekly Porsche Wrap

Here are a few Porsche related posts I read over the last week that I found interesting.  All of them are worth a read! 4 Steps to Winterize Your Porsche John over at 993c4s.com (soon to be PorschePurist.com) had a great post on winterizing your Porsche.  If you live in an area with heavy winter […]

Tempting Porsches #2

I haven’t seen many tempting Porsches the last few weeks.  Cars I would seriously consider buying, but also are a bit on the bubble when compared to other cars on the market.  Lately these have fallen more into the questionable history (rarely a good thing with a Porsche) or need work (definitely not a good […]

911 Slantnose Turbo Cabriolet

I’ve seen a fair number of decent cars, but aside from Boxsters and Cayennes, screaming deals have been a […]

Save A Tree, Skip The Newspaper, Buy A Porsche – OR – Is The Newspaper Dead???

Before I start, in the interest of full disclosure, I’ll state right now that I rarely (bordering on never) read the newspaper. My wife reads it every Sunday. The most I’ve ever read the newspaper is picking up the USA Today from the Alaska Airlines Board Room to read on my once a week flight […]

Older Porsche as Daily Driver

I ran across an article today on informanté today about a lengthy drive in Europe in old cars.  One of them being a 1972 Porsche 911: THE Old Wheelers Club of Namibia is meeting with 19 Old wheelers from Europe in Outjo this morning  as part of the 7200km special vehicles,  including the 1932 Ford […]

Best Places to Find Used Porsches

Wondering where the best places to find used Porsches are? Me too. Since I’ve been doing a little more intentional searching for Porsches lately (rather than the casual dreamer approach), I’ve started to figure out where I think the best place to find a good deal on a used Porsche will be. Here’s my list […]
