The Porsche 968 Sport was introduced exclusively to the UK market in January 1994.

Carwow staged a straight-line showdown between two very different 911s: a heavily tuned Porsche 911 Carrera T (992.2) and the legendary Porsche 911 GT2 RS, racing over the standing quarter mile and in rolling starts. The GT2 RS sticks to Porsche’s proven supercar recipe. Its 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six delivers 700...
The Porsche 914 has long lived in the shadow of its more celebrated siblings, but the rare 1970 914/6 proves there’s far more to this mid-engine targa than its reputation suggests.

Debuting for the 1989 model year, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 carried forward the familiar 911 silhouette, subtly updated with smoother bumpers and integrated side skirts. Beneath that recognizable shape, however, lay a far more advanced machine. Many enthusiasts viewed the 964-generation Carrera 4 as a spiritual offshoot of Porsche’s...
In its push for overall Le Mans victories, Porsche drifted away from its belief that race cars should closely mirror road models. After the dominant 917 wins in 1970 and 1971, the brand returned to its roots by developing competition cars based on the 911. The naturally aspirated Carrera RSR...
On a deserted regional airport runway, the team from CarExpert on YouTube lined up two of the most fearsome supercars of the early 2000s for a drag race that feels almost mythical: the Porsche Carrera GT versus the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

The Porsche 928 was never meant to coexist with the 911—it was designed to replace it. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Porsche viewed the 911’s rear-engine, air-cooled layout as outdated and instead bet on a luxurious, technologically advanced GT. The result was the 928, a car so forward-thinking...
