SIX DECADES OF SPEEDSTERS AT GOTTHARD PASS
|
|
|
It's strange to think that what was once Porsche's cheapest road car has spawned such a legacy. Where the basic 356 Speedster was inexpensive and humble, each subsequent generation is seemingly more limited and exclusive than the last. When the Speedster name re-emerged in the late-1980s as a spartan (but
apparently practical) version of the 911, …

SEMI-SOLID ENGINE MOUNTS MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE IN THIS 997
|
|
|
For me, the words "DIY" and "engine mounts" in the same sentence cause a lot of stress. Before coming into the Porsche world, I spent years immersed in modified VWs. Seeing those two phrases together recalls unhappy memories of VR6 owners yanking all the rubber out of their engine mounts and stacking hockey
pucks in their place, raising the engine …

HOW CAN PORSCHE IMPROVE ON THE 991.2 GT3 RS?
|
|
|
"This is the most track-focused, surgically precise, lightest, most downforcey 911 that you can buy," Farah begins. The stance and aerodynamic additions leave nobody guessing what this monster is meant to do—as will the exhaust note. At 9,000 rpm, the scream the 4.0-liter makes sounds like Armageddon—the good
kind. We're all familiar with the car, …

HOW FAST IS THE PORSCHE TAYCAN? TOP SPEED RUNS ON THE AUTOBAHN
|
|
|
268 km/h indicated. For those of us who measure in freedom units, that's the equivalent of 167.5 mph. That's a seriously impressive number for Porsche's electric sedan. Remember it wasn't all that long ago that the average sport sedan couldn't touch 150 mph. Of course, in today's power-obsessed market, there are
