1995 Porsche 911 (993). Its a 6 speed manual, Carrera 2 (rear wheel drive), with sunroof. The list of performance modifications are extensive. From recollection (I am sure I am missing something) here they are:
Engine - chip, supercup exhuast (with removable baffles), air intake
Brakes - 993TT big brake kit with stainless steel lines and slotted, floating rotors (currently Porsche OEM pads are on the car with less than 1000 miles on them)
Wheels - the very rare and much sough after authentic RUF rims
Transmission - rebuilt two years ago (many upgrades while open including steel gears), along with new medium weight flywheel and upgraded clutch, Kaaz Limited Slip Differential, short shift kit, goldenrod upgrade
Suspension - Adjustable Elephant Racing Vonn coilovers, RS bits, RS front and rear sway bars, all new bushings, upgraded end links
Cosmetic - front TT bumper, turbo tail, factory leather seats, 996 3 spoke steering wheel, 996 carbon fiber shift knob, faux carbon trim (done by previous owner, actually looks very nice), rear wiper delete, upgraded stereo (note there are some wiring issues I never got around to resolving so the audio works but isn't great - it has serious potential though), DAS roll cage with camera mount and harnesses (in the back - takes up the rear seat room, free access to driver and passenger compartments however- note the harnesses are currently out of date), engine fan override switch

Porsche 911 GT3 named Performance Car of the Year by Road & Track
Thu, 13 Nov 2014The Porsche 911 GT3 is a very, very good performance car. Yes, we know this is like saying fire is hot and a shovel to the head hurts. What's different about this proclamation, then? Well, we bring up the 911 GT3's inherent goodness because our friends at Road & Track have named it their 2015 performance car of the year.
This is, our joking aside, a big accomplishment for the 911 GT3, due largely to the field of cars it beat out. There were many equally track-focused wonders in attendance, including the Ferrari 458 Speciale, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 and Dodge Viper SRT TA, as well as more capable everyday vehicles, like the Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, BMW M3 and Ford Mustang GT.
But it was the 475-horsepower, rear-engined track star that R&T fell for, with editor-in-chief Larry Webster calling out the Porsche's ridiculous, howling, 9,000-rpm redline, while other editors cited its phenomenal handling character.
2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]
Thu, 22 May 2014You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.
Driving the million-mile Porsche 356
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Maybe you've seen or heard about the Porsche 356 with almost one-million miles (though it doesn't look like it), but Petrolicious finally has produced a video to show us what it's like to drive the 982,000-mile car. Guy Newmark's beautiful, dark-blue 1964 356C looks great in motion - much better than in photos - and serves to remind us not only what meticulous car care can do for old classics, but that old Porsches were built to last.
So how fastidious is Newmark about maintaining it? He takes the car to his mechanic of 40 years every 3,000 miles for an oil change and to fix anything that needs attention.
Newmark says his 356 "is everything you could want," and that he finds errands to do just to go drive it. We would, too. The next-best thing is to watch the inspiring video below of the well-traveled Porsche.
