We've been compiling the best Porsche models on eBay for about a year and a half now, and we've seen some pretty astonishing cars pop up now and again. There is some great new stuff every two weeks, so check back often. We've tracked down five more exciting Porsches for you nice people to purchase today, including a hot-rodded 912, a 356 with a sunroof, a Porsche with a V8 it shouldn't have, a Porsche with a V8 it should have, and an inexpensive Cayman that, ahem, needs some work. Some of these cars could be great collection investments, while others might prove to do more financial harm than good.

Chances are, if you've seen a video featuring Magnus Walker, then you've seen the 6th Street Bridge.  There's also a good chance that very same video was shot by Frazer Spowart of eGarage.  In today's post, Frazer switches roles from filmmaker to author in order to document the impromptu gathering that took place last week as Porsche fans (and other enthusiasts) gathered to say farewell to one of LA's most well known landmarks.  Thanks again to Frazer and everyone that contributed pictures to this crowd sourced story.

The Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona is one of the best races for fan involvement.  Not only is it a complete weekend of racing excitement, IMSA and Daytona International Speedway have gone out of their way to make the race as fan friendly as possible.  Fans can opt for tickets that give them access to the paddocks and the teams like never before.  This past weekend, Park Place Motorsports took the "fan experience" to the extreme when a mechanical problem forced driver Patrick Lindsey on an off-track detour through the Daytona infield and into traffic.  Before you knew it he was battling for position with fans and their cars.  Here's what happened.
Porsche Stories From Around The Web
Despite our best efforts, it's not always possible for us to cover everything that's happening in the world of Porsche at any given time. It's almost as if the items worthy of note increase at some exponential rate as compared to the number of new Porsche owners and fans.  With that in mind, from time to time, we'll bring you a round-up other Porsche related stories you might find of interest and link you to them.  If you read a story somewhere, or know of one you think might be of interest to our readers, please be sure to let us know by sending us a tip to storyideas@flatsixes.com.
