Tempting Porsches #1

I’ve primarily been checking Craigslist.com for used Porsches online. Time has prevented me from looking too seriously for a car at this point, but I’m trying to at least get an idea of what’s out there. I’ve seen a fair number of decent cars, but aside from Boxsters and Cayennes, screaming deals have been a […]

Visit to Porsche Factory

When my wife and I were first married, we lived in Germany for about two and a half years. It was a once in a lifetime experience that produced a lot of great memories. One of the most memorable experiences was visiting the Porsche factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, Germany and specifically the factory museum. I was […]

Porsche Gems, Old & New, at the LA Auto Show

It looks like those lucky enough to be going to the L.A. Auto show officially starting on Friday will be in for a treat from Porsche. Porsche is celebrating over 60 years of Porsche cars. In addition to the usual reveals of coming vehicles, some rare gems will be displayed alongside their new kin. Probably […]

Porsche Cayman S over 300kmh

Before you watch this video, let me tell you really quick why I am posting this. When I lived in Germany, I had a friend who had just gotten a brand new Honda Del Sol. He and I both loved driving on the Autobahn. I never drove all that fast (translated much over 100mph) because […]

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 […]

edo competition’s Porsche Cayenne GTS

I’m not sure what it is with all of the Porsche Cayenne topics coming up for me lately.  Maybe I’m destined to like the Cayenne after all.  Perhaps it’s a way to get my wife into a daily driver Porsche that she’d actually enjoy driving every day. I ran across the edo competition Porsche Cayenne […]

Jerry Seinfeld’s Next Porsche?

Since Jerry Seinfeld unloaded his Porsche 911 Turbo S not all that long ago, maybe he was making room in the collection for the 2009 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. I have to admit, if I were judging the car based purely on the paper specs of this SUV, I’d be pretty tempted to put this […]

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 […]

928 Pickup aka The Utility Porsche

Although this isn’t going to make my Ultimate Car list, this is certainly….well….interesting. I thought it was funny at the end when he talks about not being able to haul anything with it. He should have put a hot tub in the back instead of the bed of the truck. Now THAT would have been […]

An Ultimate Porsche

Everyone has their list of ultimate cars.  The ones you’d love to own, but likely are out of the range of your means.  In fact, that should be the definition of an “ultimate car”.  At least at the enthusiast level. I ran across a 1997 Porsche 911 Turbo S yesterday that was previously owned by […]
