Please support our sponsors: 14 Porsche Holiday Gift Ideas Every year we receive email after email asking us for Porsche related gift ideas. Usually those emails are
from a reader's spouse looking to surprise their loved one with a gift that would resonate with a Porsche fan. Sometimes the email is from the gift recipient themselves looking for a list to give someone else ideas. Either way, we've been putting together our list of recommended gift ideas for Porsche owners, fans and enthusiasts for years. Each year we curate a group of gift ideas that should hit on every level, for every budget. Take a minute to look through our list of Porsche gift ideas for 2016 and don't be at all embarrassed if you buy yourself something, we weren't!
This year, included in our list, are a couple of great discount opportunities including 15% off Hunziker's Casual Driving Shoes and 25% off the 10MM Porsche specific socket rail we helped design with SONIC Tools.

racers. The Drive has now released two videos from Adam's time at Goodwood. The first centered on his ex-Paul Newman 1987 300ZX Turbo. The video in this post is the second in the series, and features the Can-Am 917/30; the 1000+ horsepower monster of motorsport legend. In it, Porsche's Johannes Wuest walks
Adam through the 917, highlighting some of the differences between the turbocharged car and its naturally-aspirated counterparts. Watch the video now.

Please support our sponsors: 18 Years and 250K: A Young Man's 356A Story By current Outlaw-356 standards, Mark Pribanic's 356A is pretty mild. While some guys spend years in the garage trying to see how far
they can take their build, Mark tries to see how far he can take his car. Mark picked up his 356 in the late 1990s for eight thousand dollars, and has covered 250k miles since then. Mark's extremely active use of his car flies in the face of the current collector market, and it's refreshing to see the Porsche's potential seen through fresh eyes. Watch the video here.
