Porsche Reveals Cool Boxster, Also Shows Other Cars

We went to the Porsche event with high hopes of amazing unveils for the never before seen Porsche Boxster RS60 Spyder, Porsche RS Spyder, Porsche Cayenne GTS and Porsche 911 GT2. Imagine our disappointment when we got there and realized we've seen them all before, unlike the Porsche press release had implied. About the most exciting part of the whole event was the Boxster ice sculpture, with Porschemisu. They did manage to redeem themselves by encouraging us to "Have a little taste of Porsche" with the little birthday cakes - it's Porsches 50th anniversary this year. We didn't taste the cakes, because we don't know what Porsche tastes like, though we assume concentrated Bruce tastes like oil, aluminum, und schteel.

Porsche Coming To New York, Bringing Three "World Premiere" Vehicles

Porsche just dropped a presser on us which has us scratching our heads. Any time we read words like "Porsche" and "First" and "Shown" in a press release, we expect the things contained therein to be, you know, Porsches being shown for the first time. In this case, that's maybe only partially true. In breathless verbiage, we're told all about the amazing new Porsche Cayenne GTS, Porsche 911 GT2, Porsche Boxster RS60 Spyder and the racing Porsche RS Spyder. Problem is we've already seen the Porsche Cayenne GTS and the Porsche 911 GT2 in the flesh, the Porsche Boxster RS60 Spyder has been both on the web and boring for nigh on three and a half months. And it would be a shock if the Porsche RS Spyder which has already won more races than we care to count wasn't pretty well known. So at the end of the day, we're really confused on exactly what it is we're supposed to be excited about here. But — the press release in all of it's breathlessness is below the jump. More »

Latest by my favorite car is a motorcycle: @DoctorNine: I disagree strongly. I'd like EVERY advertisement and product press release state the total purchase price. In fact, this should be regulated to eliminate the "dollar down, dollar when you catch me" financing shenanigans. Those who can't stand to more »

Frankfurt Auto Show: Porsche 911 GT2 Video

Porsche dropped some b-roll of its latest widowmaker, the lightweight 911 GT2, destined for unveiling tomorrow at the Frankfurt Messe. The world's motoring press and a few close friends will get the first up-close look at the first stock 200-mph+ 911, powered by a turbocharged 3.6-liter boxer six with Porsche's VarioCam and variable-turbine setup producing 530 hp at 6500 rpm and 505 lb-ft of torque at 2,200-4,500 rpm. Curb weight is a stripped 3,175 lbs, totaling to a power-to-weight ratio of 5.99 lbs/hp. and 3.6 seconds to 60 mph. Don't expect to see a strenuous workout in the latest company-supplied video. Apparently the bond-trader protagonist is just blowing off a little steam after losing the Drüker account (actually, it's German ex-rallyist Walter Rohrl).
