Diesel Boxster

I’ve gotta be honest, I don’t get this one.  Diesel Boxster?  A Cayenne I can kind of see.  Really, they can do whatever they want to the Cayenne.  I don’t like them to begin with.  But the Boxster?!  I actually like those. It looks like we may be seeing the Diesel Boxster as soon as […]

E-Porsche…Silent but Deadly

We’ve seen some electric Porsches surface from time to time. Well meaning Porsche enthusiasts applying their engineering prowess and desire to greenify our favorite brand. Everything from 914s to 944s and 911s to 356s have been electrified by “green” Porscheophiles. At least they’re doing something reasonable with their Porsches unlike the Porsche 928 Pickup conversion. […]

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 […]

Diesel Porsche…What the heck???

You know by now I, along with many other people, am not a big fan of the Cayenne.  Well, at least the stock Cayenne (see this post on edo Competition’s Cayenne).  So when I read Porsche’s official press release late last month about the Cayenne diesel, of course my first thought was “Now the Cayenne […]

VW Takeover? Not so fast…

Looks like Porsche is stepping a bit slower into its takeover of VW. Porsche Chief Executive Wendelin Wiedeking stated at a news conference recently “Our goal still is to initially increase our stake in VW as soon as possible to over 50%,” but it looks like this will likely not happen in 2008. Funny, Porsche […]

Another 4 Door “Wonder” in the Porsche Panamera?

4 doors…911 styling…plenty of power…Seems like the Porsche Panamera could be a decent addition to the Porsche lineup.  We’ll start seeing the car in 2009 for the 2010 model year.  Engines will be pulled from the Cayenne line with plans for a hybrid at some point in the future.  Hopefully they’ll be able to sell […]

Porsche Rides VW to the Most Valuable Company in the World!

When I first saw this story a few weeks ago on CNBC, I couldn’t believe what was happening. Course not being a financial guru, I don’t know that I really even understood what was happening. Last month, Porsche AG announced it had acquired almost 43% of Volkswagen. If that’s not news enough, it also had […]

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 […]
