The Pebble Beach Concours is always a spectacle of the well-heeled celebrating the well-known in the fancy-pants car show circuit. To go along with the car show wine is the cheese, also known as the Monterey Auctions, put on every year by the house of RM Auctions. There are always hit lists of the most desirable and historical cars crossing the blocks for huge sums of money; to wit, Edmunds Inside Line just did their "10 Best Cars at the 2008 Monterey Auctions" piece today. But we tire of such endeavors. That's why we dug around and found out what's at the bottom of the list. Below the fold: The ten crappiest cars at the 2008 Monterey Auctions. More »

It's been way too long since the last DOTS Porsche 912, and I must admit I'd been sitting on these photos until I could find some clue to tell me the year of the car... which has proved to be beyond my abilities. Those damn Germans and their reluctance to make yearly design changes for the sake of change! The yellow-on-black license plate is from '68 or '69, which tells us virtually nothing- the car may be a '65 with later plates or a '69 with the only plates it's ever had. The car is in a very wealthy neighborhood (i.e., the kind of place where super-paranoid vigilantes concerned neighbors call the cops when they see some scurvy-looking dude like me sniffing around a car), so I won't be searching for VIN tags or photographing heater-control knobs. So, obsessed devoted Porsche zealots aficionados, please let us know what we've got here. I know you can do it! More »

Is the 912 a real Porsche? That is, do driving-glove-equipped dentists drive it? Sure, it looks like a 911, but that little four-banger in back won't exactly make you feel like a Prussian officer brandishing his riding crop at his cringing inferiors. And, really, isn't that what it's all about? More »
