PORSCHE DEBUTS PRODUCTION-READY 911 SPEEDSTER AT NEW YORK AUTO SHOW
|
|
We knew it was coming, we knew it would be limited, and we knew what it would look like, but it's still a joy to see the 991.2-generation Speedster finally in production-ready trim. Only 1948 examples of this open-top 911 will be built, and it's likely that its most of the way to being sold out by now, if it
isn't already. What you're looking at …

MONSTROUS 917-30 SPITS FLAMES
|
|
Built to dominate Can-Am racing in the early 1970s, the Porsche 917-30s wielded as much as 1,600 horsepower to mortify the men driving them and to leave an indelible mark on motorsport's history. Few cars have the same aura surrounding them; the monstrous power, combined with the sub-standard safety measures of
the day made them a real gladiator's …

|

Evocative upholstery patterns! Motorsport liveries! Multiple vowels in a row! Striipe socks bring some serious car-guy cred to our otherwise human-hued feet and ankles. Striipe's lineup caters mostly to the German car fan, with a strong emphasis on Porsche and BMW. The designs chosen are subtle enough to not

PORSCHE GLOBAL SALES DOWN 12 PERCENT IN Q1, NORTH AMERICA SALES UP
|
|
Porsche is already predicting that 2019 will be the company's first net decrease in sales across the full year in a very long time. While sales were up in North America thanks to booming sales in the US and Canada, every other market Porsche sells in has seen decline over the last year. With the Asian and

PROTECTING A 911 SAFARI WITH XPEL FILM AND CERAMIC COATINGS
|
|
We love Leh Keen's Safari 911s. In keeping with our belief that the 911 is a perfect all-rounder, lifting one and fitting knobby tires seems to take nothing from the experience. Mr. Keen's cars are brilliant, and Matt Farah's personal car is one of the most interesting of the lot. Farah's Safari is finished in

RESTORING A 911 TURBO ON A 1/64 SCALE BUDGET
|
|
Restoring an early Porsche 911 Turbo is an expensive venture. Parts can be expensive, paint is costly, and the value of the cars today makes even minor modifications something worth lengthy consideration. This example, introduced in 1979, avoids most of the pitfalls of Porsche restoration. With just a handful of
parts to consider (only six of which …
