Another Carrera GT, another four-year service interval. This Nürburgring denizen had logged over 13,000 miles when its owner decided to combine the typical engine-out job with full paint-correction detail. A full photographic record lets us follow along [Rennlist]. More »

The bill for the four-year service on a Porsche Carrera GT comes in at about $8,000. What do you get for the money? More »

This Porsche Carrera GT caught fire at a track day at the Shanghai International Circuit, burning to a crisp shell before marshals were able to extinguish the blaze. Strangely poetic accident report below. More »

Porsche's first foray into production V10 power lies just behind the driver in the Carrera GT super car. Let's take a look inside Bruce and see what makes his 605 HP, 5.7-liter DOHC V10 tick. More »

Been shopping for a Porsche Carrera GT but haven't found one with enough white paint and exposed carbon fiber? You're in luck, because there's plenty of both on the Gemballa Mirage GT Carbon Edition. More »

Is the Porsche Carrera GT the new Enzo? No, not performance, rather in the desire of owners to crack 'em up 'round curves. Exhibit A: Autogespot's shots of a Carrera GT crashed in Marbella, Spain. More »

We wouldn't blame you for mistaking this parking deck for a Sheiklet's playground in Abu Dhabi. This deck in Hong Kong holds some of the world's most exclusive iron aluminum, including a Porsche Carrera GT, a few Lamborghinis and a Ferrari Enzo. It seems as if China is doing a better job of Saving the Enzos than we are back in the States. See if you can name every car in the clip - you'll get some helpful, if slightly misleading, assistance from our intrepid narrators. (Hat tip to Jamie!) [VideoSift] More »

This Toyota MR2 dressed to look like a Porsche Carrera GT isn't going to trick anybody. It may have Porsche badges glued on, but they're not enough to distract you from the sickening proportions and ridiculous build quality. We haven't seen a supercar kit this bad since the Fierrari Enzo. The Porsche costume is mounted on a salvage-title 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder with a modest 138 HP 1.8-liter four-banger. So how much would you pay for such an exotic motor vehicle? Well, the current bid is $12,000...but the reserve hasn't even been met. More »

What's better than handing the keys to your Porsche Carrera GT to your kid and having him destroy it? How about giving him this Chinese knockoff version he can wreck all day long at a fraction of the price? Brilliant! Though not cheap, with a 'buy it now' price of $80 grand, this Carrera actually started life as a Boxster, got put in the taffy puller and stretched 12 inches front and back, and then had a new body dropped on top. Keen eyes render it obvious as a poseur, but it's actually a pretty good fake. Better than most of the Fierarris we've seen, anyway. More »

This one comes to us from the offices of intrepid commenter Drachen, who chatted up the driver of this flatbed after seeing its cargo — the remains of a Porsche Carrera GT in an Atlanta-area parking lot. According to the driver, he'd just pulled an all-nighter driving from Miami to Atlanta to deliver the car to the shipping docks so it could be crated and sent back to Germany. Seems the car was destroyed at the hands of — you guessed it — a teenager, and on prom night, no less.

Dubai is no longer just a quaint desert outpost where car thieves merely steal police BMWs. Nope, the lack of proper law enforcement oversight is now showing up in more edge-of-the-seat ways. Because although taking a Porsche Carrera GT out for donuts and making sideways laps around a roundabout seems like a pretty good way to thrash a V10-powered Stuttgart supercar, it probably doesn't help so much with the law and order.

Yes, perhaps the old adage of "like father, like son" is actually true. We all know how much Lewis Hamilton loves the Porsches, right? We also know how much he loves diving head first into the walls too. Enter Anthony Hamilton, his father and manager. He was just out having some fun with his wife in a loaned silver Porsche Carrera GT yesterday in jolly good England, when he More »

Here we find a perfect example as to why using those 2x8's you've got lying around behind the shed to load a half million dollar Porsche Carrera GT is a bad idea. We're not positive of the categorization here, but "epic fail" might be as close as we can get for everybody involved in setting up this cringe-worthy scenario. You can almost hear the carbon fiber chassis going all crunchy right at the end. Ouch. [VideoMax (NSFW banner ads)] More »

Our first impression when looking at these pictures of various supercars done up in flat black was "holy awesome sweetness!" But then we thought about it for a second. These cars have paint jobs from the factory costing tens of thousands of dollars. Does that make any sense? How much more menacing can an Audi R8 in flat black really be? We're wondering if what was once a cheap and individualist style has become a parody of itself. Poll below the fold.
