As has been observed before, the advent of the 996 was a revolution at Porsche. If the longest-running sports car model in history was to have a future beyond the 1990s, it would require a comprehensive retranslation for the twenty-first century. The outcome was the radical new 996, which at...
While the highly successful Porsche 911 GT3 R continues to chase victories around the globe during the 2025 season, its successor is already revving up in the wings. This upcoming weekend, the development program for the new customer racing model, based on the current GT3 race car, will take its...
Remember that Tesla promotional video where a Cybertruck towed a Porsche 911 and still beat another one in a drag race? It stirred up a lot of debate — so to settle things fairly, carwow lined up a stock Cybertruck against a stock 911 for a proper head-to-head drag race...
Throughout its history, Porsche has developed a number of homologation specials — cars built to satisfy racing regulations while remaining street legal. One of the most remarkable examples is the Carrera GT, originally intended to succeed the 911 GT1 racer of the late 1990s. Although changes in FIA rules disrupted...
This exceptionally rare 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Lightweight, chassis 9113600446, is one of only 200 M471 Lightweight examples ever produced—and just one of 17 built in right-hand drive. Finished in its original Grand Prix White with blue accents, this RS was factory-equipped with a limited-slip differential and heated...
Since 2003, the GT3 RS badge has marked Porsche’s most track-focused, road-legal 911. Each generation has pushed the limits with more performance, aero, and tech. Supercar Driver on YouTube compare three GT3 RS from different generations — the 997.1, 991.1, and 992 GT3 RS — to see how this car...
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...
Porsche’s updated 911 Carrera S, now in its 992.2 generation, brings incremental but meaningful changes to the most popular trim in the lineup. The car still runs a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six, now producing 473 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque. While torque output remains the same as before, it’s delivered...
In 1973, Porsche brought back the “Carrera” name, inspired by past victories in Mexico’s Carrera Panamericana, for its high-performance 911 Carrera RS (RennSport). Originally meant as a limited run of 500 for Group 4 racing homologation, demand surged, leading to 1,580 units and allowing entry into Group 3. The first...
Since its launch, the Porsche 911 has played a key role in motorsport, especially in endurance racing. Two years after its debut, the 911 S won the 2-litre GT class at Le Mans. By the mid-1970s, Porsche introduced the RSR—a race-focused 911 that became the foundation for decades of success...
This 1991 Porsche 964 Carrera coupe has undergone a meticulous three-year transformation into a bespoke SuperSport restomod by Abreu Motors. Finished in Ferrari’s Grigio Alloy paint, the car features a classic long-hood conversion, widebody fenders, low-profile bumpers, 935-style rocker panels, and a signature ducktail spoiler. Additional exterior highlights include LED...
The Porsche 911, one of the world’s most celebrated sports cars, has been in production for over 50 years across eight generations, with more than a million units built. Over time, enthusiasts and tuners have modified countless 911s, but few have perfected it like Singer. Founded in Los Angeles in...
Story by Greg James. Images by Harvey Kanter. The 964’s Controversial Arrival When the 964 was released in 1989, the initial reaction was not universally positive. In fact, many of the Porsche air-cooled faithful hated it. Too big, too bulbous, rides too high, and not in keeping with the Porsche...
CarWow conducted a drag race between the BMW M4 CS and the new Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS (992.2 hybrid) to determine which high-performance machine comes out on top. Looking at the specifications, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS features a 3.6-liter turbocharged flat-six with hybrid assistance, producing 541 horsepower...
To mark its 70th anniversary in 2018, Porsche introduced the 991-generation 911 Speedster, producing just 1,948 units as a tribute to Dr. Porsche’s first two-seat roadster. Inspired by past Speedster models, including the 356, 964, and 997, this version blends stunning design with high performance. Essentially an open-top 911 GT3,...
Some cars demand respect, and the Porsche 962 is one of them. This legendary race car dominated endurance racing in the mid-to-late 1980s. It was so successful that the FIA eventually banned it from competition, leaving many 962 race cars without a home. Around that time, a few tuners saw...
Originally a 1991 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 coupe, this car was meticulously modified by Singer Vehicle Design in 2023 as part of a commissioned build known as the “Space City Commission.” Singer, founded by Rob Dickinson in 2009, specializes in transforming 964-generation 911s into high-performance, handcrafted works of art. This...

Marking six decades of the Porsche 911, the 992-generation Porsche 911 S/T was designed with one goal in mind—pure driving enjoyment. It pairs the high-revving 4.0-liter flat-six from the GT3 RS with a six-speed manual gearbox and lightweight construction for an engaging experience. Built on the foundation of the 911...

The 2010s gave us one of the greatest rivalries in automotive history: three hypercars, launched almost simultaneously, each aiming to outshine the others. Ferrari, McLaren, and Porsche each built a technological masterpiece that redefined performance. These three cars—the LaFerrari, McLaren P1, and Porsche 918 Spyder—are known as the Holy Trinity...
When unveiled in February 1993, the Porsche 911 Turbo 3.6 was the most powerful production model Porsche had ever offered in North America. This rear-wheel-drive, widebody 911 featured a single turbocharger and delivered an impressive 355 horsepower. Porsche achieved this by turbocharging the 964’s updated M64 3.6-liter engine, replacing the...
One of only 11 Porsche 911 TAG Turbos built by Lanzante, this exceptional vehicle has been offered with fewer than 300 miles since its completion. Inspired by the unique Formula One-powered Porsche 911 Turbo road car developed by Porsche’s R&D Department, this masterpiece is powered by the legendary 1.5-liter TAG...
Petrolheads love one thing—more. More speed, more power, more thrill. For decades, Porsche has delivered just that with the 911, refining its performance without altering its iconic design. However, stricter emissions regulations now demand a different approach to achieving “more.” Traditionally, sports cars relied on extra fuel to cool combustion...
Commissioned in 2017 by longtime Singer client Scott Blattner, the Dynamics and Lightweight Study (DLS) sought to push the limits of the 964-generation Porsche 911 using advanced lightweight materials. Limited to just 75 units, the DLS extensively employs carbon fiber, magnesium, and titanium, resulting in a curb weight of just...

Compared to the standard GT3, the RS adopts a central front radiator layout inspired by the Le Mans-winning 911 RSR. Airflow is channeled through large front-lid vents...
That unmistakable whir of a fan colling a flat-6 engine; a hallmark sound unique to driving a Porsche 911. Hey…I have an idea. Let’s remove it along with the manual transmission. Yeah…that should pretty much kill the priceless driving experience of the world’s most successful sportscar. Oh…but it gets better....

The 997-generation GT3 RS 4.0 holds a revered place in Porsche’s Rennsport hierarchy, much like the iconic 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7. It was the final 911 GT3 to feature the legendary Mezger engine, paired exclusively with a six-speed manual gearbox. Named after Porsche engineer Hans Mezger, this engine is...
The new GTS introduces hybrid technology, integrating a 1.9 kWh battery and an electric motor into the PDK gearbox, but lacks an electric-only range. Its 3.6-liter flat-6 engine delivers 533 BHP and 450 lb-ft of torque, aided by an electrically assisted turbocharger for instant response. However, the hybrid system adds...

Background Not long after introducing the mid-engine 914, Porsche began to develop a version for motorsports.
