Renowned automotive photographer Michael Alan Ross recently joined Maurice Merrick, creator, and host of the Horsepower Heritage podcast, to discuss his new book “Porsche Outlaws: Stuttgart Hot Rods.” A Southern California phenomenon that has spread globally, the 911 “Outlaw” movement proves the 911 chassis is one of the most functional and respected sports cars ever designed. Over a half-century later, the basic rear-engine layout continues to lend itself to innovation and customization, something unheard of for a car of that […]...
Original Recipe Among the air-cooled cognoscenti, the original 1973 Carrera RS 2.7 rightly resides in “das Beste vom Besten” 911 pantheon. Designed to meet homologation requirements for Group 4 racing, it blended lightweight construction, aerodynamic enhancements, and a potent 2.7-liter flat-six engine. The legendary Carrera RS was the creation of Porsche icons Ernst Fuhrmann and Norbert Singer–as they set about to create a ‘hot rod’ neunelfter by stripping out as much weight as possible (including removal of soundproofing) and significantly […]...

The 911 R is a formidable machine powered by the 4.0L, 500 HP engine from the 911 GT3 RS, alongside its carbon-ceramic brakes. Beyond these shared features, the two cars are vastly different. While the GT3 RS is an aerodynamically advanced extrovert, the 911 R embraces simplicity, blending understated design with thrilling performance. Inspired by the 1967 911 R, Porsche’s first 911-based race car, the modern version follows the same formula: less weight, more power. Weighing 110 pounds less than […]...

Preamble No, I haven’t been lucky enough to have cumulatively clocked 10 years behind the wheel of a GT4, or multiple GT4s for that matter, but I did have a chance to sample a truncated version of what this experience would be like. That said, I think that having close-to-a-month living with both these cars at the same time, should be good enough to make my findings more than just presumptive. Right now, I have a 718 GT4 RS and […]...

Now available on PCARMARKET, this 2019 Porsche 911 Speedster is one of the 1,948 built and […]...

The Porsche 911 Turbo has been a standout in automotive history since it first hit the scene in 1974.

Over time, it has grown and changed, adding new technology, but staying true to its roots.

In the rolling fields of post-war Germany, a visionary project took shape—not on racetracks or autobahns, but on farmlands. Years before Porsche became a household name in sleek sports cars, it left its mark in agriculture with the Porsche-Diesel tractor. Manufactured in Friedrichshafen-Manzell, Germany, these tractors embodied engineering precision tailored for a different kind of performance: plowing fields and powering rural life. Playing at a much deeper level than simply a tractor company, the Porsche Diesel project is a story […]...

Story by Greg James. Photos by Dan O’Connell. I love reading road tests. Especially those that involve shootouts when cars are pitted against each other. However, in the traditional automotive rags that get their revenues from advertisers, it’s often comical how close any number of performance cars finish points-wise when they’re judged as a group. While the objective figures (0-60) can’t really be fudged, it’s the subjective ones that often bring the performance laggards up in the ratings when final […]...
