As an early adopter of the Porsche Taycan—specifically, the 2020 Porsche Taycan 4S—I am fortunate to have had the chance to be directly immersed during Porsche’s era-defining foray into once unknown territory. I had the 4S for roughly two years, which was ample time to experience all the generalities and...

Yellow Porsche 911
Over the past decade or so, the Porsche 911 has really grown into an automobile that has become synonymous with both fun and reliability—the “dynamic duo” of qualities required for a sports car to achieve widespread commercial success. The Porsche 911 has done just that, and with a wide range...
The S/T is basically the long-awaited follow-up to the lightweight, manual-only 911 R that put a chef's kiss on the last (991.2) 911 generation. A short-throw six-speed manual is the sole transmission choice, and tucked behind the rear wheels is the GT3 RS's naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six. The weight of the clutch and flywheel are halved, resulting in a weight reduction of 23 pounds. Reviews are in and they're calling it the best Porche sports car ever created.
Front wheels on a purple Porsche
Compared to certain marques—Italian ones, in particular—Porsche cars tend to take on a more subdued and unassuming persona. Call it German stoicism, if you will. But that’s not to say that Porsche is in any way reluctant to be distinguishable from your everyday commuter. Afterall, they produce some of the...

There...
Arguably the most extreme 911 to be build as a production car for the road and track. The most significant improvements made to the RS—over both the 992 GT3 and the previous-gen 991 GT3 RS—were applied to the aerodynamics and chassis departments of the car. The new 911 GT3 RS is even more optimized for track use than its predecessors. The spontaneously responsive, high-revving four-litre, six-cylinder boxer engine has proven ideal for use at track days and club sport events.
