The Porsche 962, following in the footsteps of the already massively successful 956, was introduced in 1984 in response to specific regulatory requirements as laid down by the American IMSA GTP Championship.

Still a 911 Guy… But Curious I try not to be a 911 snob, but like most long-time Porsche owners, the rear engine, air-cooled 911 is – and always has been – “Top of the Pops” for me. Other makes and models invariably come up short. Certainly, the car has...
The rivalry between the 911 and GT-R is well-established, but when both cars are boosted to a staggering 1,600 horsepower, the outcome in such a scenario remains uncertain. OFFICIALLY GASSED – OG YouTube channel organized a drag race between these two monsters to see which one’s faster in a straight...
This isn't technically a Speedster, but the Type 540 (Typ 540 K/9-1 to be very precise) - known more commonly as the America Roadster - started the idea. The American Roadster was the direct predecessor of the Speedster. U.S. importer Max Hoffman convinced Porsche it needed a lightweight convertible to compete. It only had an emergency folding roof and could keep up with larger sports cars of the era. But the production methods used to create the America Roadster’s aluminum body proved to be too expensive, and in 1952 Porsche built only 21 units before its discontinuation in 1953.
It’s a rare and privileged opportunity for a vehicle to be inducted into the National Register of Historic Vehicles and an even rarer moment when it’s a Porsche.

On display at the 20th annual The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, in Carmel Valley was a strange little car that caught my attention. The car had a Porsche emblem on its nose and a confusing “Porsche VW 914-6” script on the rear. It was the farthest thing from a Porsche...

Background In the early 1970s, a new European Grand Touring Championship gave the competition 911s a fresh lease of life. This model almost completely filled race grids.

In 1977, Porsche’s “improvised” Type 936/77 took on the full-court press of four Renaults at Le Mans. Retirements and technical troubles suggested that winning was out of the question. But neither its drivers nor Porsche number 4 believed that. Against strong opposition from Alpine-Renault and Alfa Romeo, Porsche took the...

Some colors suit an era of 911 so well they become synonymous with that car. Oak Green Metallic is one such shade, and the 911 must be the 1970s Turbo. In fact,Dr. Ferry P orsche’s personal Turbo was specified in Oak Green Metallic, further evidence of the wise decision of...

The turbocharged 930 was produced from early 1975 was Porsche’s flagship 911 and arguably the most capable supercar of its time. Performance-wise, the 930 was on a par with anything Ferrari and Lamborghini had to offer. Unlike its Italian rivals though, the turbocharged 911 was practical enough for everyday use...
Porsche’s 1981 Daytona 24-Hour winning poster A lot of people have asked me over the years, what is it like to plan, prepare for and run a 24-hour sports car race. It has changed somewhat over the years from the days of the Porsche 935 at the 1981 Daytona 24...

History Long regarded as the best entry-level air-cooled 911, the Carrera 3.2 remains highly desirable. It was the final evolution of the original torsion bar 911 built from 1964 to 1989. Visually the only significant change came in 1974 with the so-called ‘impact bumpers’ of the G series, but under...
911 “Evolutionsserie” Unless you’re attending Luftgekühlt, a 000 event, or perhaps a special Porsche collection visit, a discussion of the Porsche Type 954 is likely to illicit some confusion – even among Porsche enthusiasts.

When Porsche wanted to build a 911 2.7 RS for the 1980’s, it came up with the Carrera 3.2 Club Sport, a car which much like an RS has gone on to become a sought-after classic. In common with its RS predecessor, the key to the Club Sport is weight,...
