Singer 911 Featured on Video

I first heard about the Singer Porsche 911 a couple of years ago and have thought often about the orange Singer beauty since then (Singer Porsche 911). It represents possibly one of the coolest old meets new designs I’ve ever seen on a Porsche 911. I absolutely love the orange color of the Singer Porsche […]

Jeff Zwart’s Record Setting Pikes Peak Run Video

This is a continuation to the video I posted on Monday. Jeff Zwart not only drove his Porsche 911 GT2 RS to Pikes Peak this year, traveling over 110o miles to get there, he ran the car up Pikes Peak in record setting time this year. Some really cool footage both in the car and […]

Porsche Boxster E: Do We Really Want An Electric Porsche?

I’ve been mulling over the Porsche Boxster E since the trio of cars showed up at the Michelin Challenge Bibendum in Berlin in May. Two Boxster E models were represented: one car containing two electric motors, and two cars with just one electric motor. The tests of the day were successful as far as Porsche […]

Weekly Porsche Wrap

Party ends early for a pair of teens – A couple of teenagers were headed to a party last week in daddy’s Porsche Boxster at 1:30am on a highway in Houston, Texas when another car began to frantically wave them down. Seems the back of the car was on fire. The teens pulled over and […]

The Road To Pikes Peak In A Porsche 911 GT2 RS Video

One of the amazing things to me about the Porsche 911 is how closely some of the road going cars match to the track versions. Sure there are tires, weight savings from deleted creature comforts, and better fuel, but the degree of separation is rather small overall. This video, although not particularly exciting, has some […]

An Amazing LEGO Porsche 911 Turbo

I have a friend who loves LEGOs. He even worked for the company as a designer at one point. The guy has more LEGOs than many small stores do. The detail that some people can see in their minds, then figure out how to get there using something like LEGOs is mind blowing to me. […]

Stirling Moss Takes A Drive In His Porsche 718 RS 61 At Goodwood

This is one heck of a cool video. The camera is mounted behind Sir Stirling Moss in his Porsche 718 RS 61 showing a run he made at Goodwood. Great footage and an equally awesome soundtrack.

Top Gun 25th Anniversary Celebrated By TopGun Days Book

This summer marks the 25th anniversary of the movie Top Gun. It’s hard to believe it’s been 25 years since many of us “strapped in” our movie theater seats for the Hollywood ride of our lives. The movie easily makes my Top 5 Porsche movies list (Top 5 Porsche Movies of All Time). I would […]
