Your Ridiculously Awesome Porsche 912E Wallpapers Are Here
I am an absolute sucker for a nice entry-level Porsche. For years the 912E has been looked at with scorn for being slow and boring.

A Manual Transmission Swap Improves Even One of Ferrari's Best Cars
You won’t hear any argument from me. I’m as much a manual transmission evangelist as you might expect. I have not bought a car with an automatic transmission since 2005, and it’s unlikely I will again until my joints wear out when I’m old and grey.
