You Have To Try Porsche's Most Recent Interactive Print Advertisement!
Porsche 718 Blippar ap

Last month, working in conjunction with Cramer-Krasselt, OMG’s Ignition Factory, Blippar and Outside magazine, Porsche created their third digitally interactive print campaign (the first was in April's edition of Fast Company magazine). The biggest difference between the first one and this one, however, is that unlike the ad in Fast Company, this new advertisement actually allows you to interact with the printed magazine itself. Even better, it incorporates a competition that awards the winner with a trip to the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. Here's how it works and how you can try it yourself without needing a copy of the magazine.  

 
40 Years of the Tamiya 934: Time to Break Out the Jägermeister!
Jagermeister type 934 rc car
2016 is the 40th Anniversary of both the real 934 and its RC little brother; Tamiya's long lived kit. Back in June of this year, to celebrate the model's anniversary, Tamiya announced a completely up-to-the-minute version of the 934 based on their TA-02SW architecture. Where the original 934 produced 485 horsepower (or more) from its turbocharged flat six, this kit will produce a modest 350 gram-centimeters of torque (and unspecified horsepower) from its electric motor. The kit became available just last week. Here are the details.

We've been compiling some amazing Porsche models on eBay for over two years now, and we've seen some pretty astonishing cars pop up now and again. We recently started publishing our picks once a week instead of our prior bi-weekly schedule, in an effort to bring you more exciting Porsche auction action. Check back often for different cars! This week we have a good diversity of selections. Something for everyone if you will, including something a little different for your game room or garage. Keep in mind, some of these cars could be great collection investments, while others might prove to do more financial harm than good.

The Last Turn - It's All Relative
The Last Turn
Intimidation. That’s what this image is about; the monster, black and hulking, looming large over the tiny obstruction blocking its path, a scowl on its chromed face. Carnage, it implies, may ensue. Actually, the story behind this image is much more lighthearted than that. Leonard Turner explains how this picture came together, and then almost didn't, during the 1986 Porsche Parade.

3.6 Turbo sold
If you thought the market for air-cooled cars was softening, at least when it comes to blue chip collector quality cars, guess again.  If the results of this month's RM Sotheby's auction in London and Bonhams' auction at Goodwood showed us anything, it's that top quality cars can still bring record breaking prices. Here are all the Porsche results from those two auctions in one post.

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 here's a round-up of other Porsche related stories you might find of interest.  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 a tip to storyideas@flatsixes.com.
