What's It Cost To Defy Physics? The Price Of A Porsche Macan
|
Last month Porsche invited us to spend a few days in California playing with the Macan S and Macan Turbo both on and off the track. From that visit we
already answered a lot of your individual questions about the Macan. However, we haven't spent a lot of time giving you our thoughts on how the Macan behaved on-track and off-road. Nor did we talk much about how to choose between the S or the Turbo. In this
first of a two (2) story spread, we chronicle our seat time on the canyon roads from Pasadena to Willow Springs and our track time in a bevy of Macans with outfitted with various suspension and drivetrain packages. What we chose as our favorite may surprise you.

Porsche Cayman Gets A Drive Through Blessing At Buddhist Temple
|
Asia has quietly become Porsche's
largest region for sales volume and China is not far from passing the U.S. as their largest single market. As China grows, scenes like the one above will become more common. Last month it was Thailand's Porsche driving nun that was in trouble. This time it's a group of monks in Hubei China that are making the news. Should Buddhist monks accept money to bless a Porsche? I'm not sure I know the right answer, but some in China think it's a practice that should
end. Read the full story. Related Porsche Blog Posts

Point: 4 Reasons The Porsche Cayman GT4 Will Never Be Built
|
This past spring and into early summer rumors were flying about the possibility of a range topping Cayman GT4. All this conjecture was the result of a simple statement by Andreas Preuninger (head of the 911 GT3 development) that Porsche "was considering" a more track-focused version of the mid-engined coupe. We've seen renderings, hypothetical specs, even possible prices. What we haven't seen is anything concrete that it will be
produced. Here are 4 reasons why we think the Cayman GT4 will never see the light of day.

More recently, Michael has gained notice for some record setting sales in the world of Porsche 928s. Ever wonder
