THIS SAFARI 911 IS AN EXCELLENT EVERY DAY COMMUTER
|
|
|
When Matt Farah left the potholed streets of New York for sunny Los Angeles, he didn't anticipate the roads to be so lousy. The pockmarked streets of the sprawling city required something with suspension travel—something which could absorb undulations. Though his large-but-comforting Ford Raptor was supple enough, he still wanted
something small enough to …

THIS IS WHAT IT’S LIKE TO DRIVE A LE MANS PROTOTYPE IN LOS ANGELES TRAFFIC
|
|
|
"You don't lock the doors when you're driving, you don't even really close them all the way," is not something I've ever heard in a review before, but such is life in a Koenig C62. Not much about this car is like anything you've seen on a normal road car before. Unlike Groups 5 and 6 which were replaced quite rapidly by Group C in the
early 1980s, …

THE PORSCHE FORMULA E TEAM HAD A REALLY BAD TIME IN CHILE
|
|
|
When the first race of the season kicked off in Saudi Arabia a couple of months ago Porsche looked pretty strong, particularly with the experienced Formula E racer André Lotterer at the wheel. With a well-earned podium place, the team hoped to build from that strength to get better throughout the season. Showing up in Santiago, Chile, was
a dismal …

WHY THE CARRERA GT STILL PULLS OUR HEARTSTRINGS
|
|
|
In the era of turbochargers and PDK gearboxes we live in, it's easy to get distracted. Even mid-tier sports cars are just so supremely quick nowadays, there's a good chance that many fans forget about the other things which make a car truly special. Fortunately, we have videos like these. One brief encounter with the sonorous wail of the
5.7-liter …

PURISTS REJOICE! PORSCHE PUTS THE SIX-CYLINDER BACK INTO THE 718 GTS
|
|
|
Stuffing a throaty six-cylinder in the back of a mid-tier Cayman or Boxster isn't ever going to be met with much opposition. While many have grown accustomed to the shove and impressive mid-range of the latest 2.5-liter turbo motors, the screaming 4.0-liter atmospheric engines will always be welcome betwixt the haunches of a 718. Of
course, …

HOW DO PORSCHE’S SIM RACERS DIFFER FROM ITS REAL WORLD RACERS?
|
|
|
Porsche has invested heavily in esports racing, and has developed a crew of high-level sim racers. These virtual drivers are often as talented at piloting a virtual car as Porsche's factory team is at piloting the real thing in meatspace. They both have training regimens, strict diets, and the rigors of endurance racing. Obviously the
simulator …

THIS PORSCHE BOXSTER TRACK CAR IS READY FOR THE APOCALYPSE
|
|
|
This car asks far more questions than it answers. Originally built to race in the 24 Hours of Lemons series by Vali Motorsports, it's clear that this car's theme is "Does that even run?" and holy hell does it run. In as-shown spec it is running a 300-horsepower 3.6-liter flat six [it's certainly not a GT3-spec engine as is claimed in the
video, …
