Convertible
2025 Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed
The windshield free car Mercedes comes up with every ten years
Remember the Sterling Moss windhshield-less concept of the Mercedes SLR? Ok so Mercedes did it again. It is a recurring limited edition theme for them considering their glory days in the 60’s when they were winning races on a regular basis. The good old days are behind them but the spirit lives on. If you are a lucky VIP that will be the car to show off in Monaco this summer. If not you can always go for a Porsche GT of 918 Spyder and it should cost you about the same.
2026 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster
The Porsche 911 alternative if you are leasing.
If you are shopping for a Porsche 911, you have to also look at the Aston-Martin Vantage. Of course its resaele value will be terrible and it is usualy a rebranded glorified Jaguar coupe but you have to give it to the Brits, the Vantage always looks like a million bucks when it comes out. I can’t recall any Vantage release where I was not thinking ’oh boy’ this is a looker. For 2026 the Roadster aka convertible in german terms receives some minor updates. Enjoy the superb photo gallery!
Looking Back At The Forgotten 2011 Porsche Boxster E Concept
The 718 EV maybe on the horizon today, but the idea of an all-electric Porsche sports car has been around for more than a decade
Porsche is gearing up to electrify the 718 Boxster and 718 Cayman, marking the German brand’s leap into battery-powered sports cars. While rumors and spy shots of the all-electric 718 Boxster have been all the rage on Porsche forums and the wider web for the past few years, Porsche has actually been dabbling at the idea of electrification for well over 14 years. Back in 2011, they even unveiled an electric Boxster prototype called the Boxster E.
992.2 GTS: Is The 3.6-Liter T-Hybrid 911 Worth The Criticism?
While it brings electrification to a production 911 for the first time, here are some pros and cons of the T-Hybrid system
The Porsche 992.2 GTS is a divisive machine, even by 911 standards. The GTS badge first appeared on the 997 generation and has since evolved to symbolize performance-focused refinement and it has long been touted as the sweet spot between Carrera usability and GT3 aggression. The 992.2 iteration brings a host of changes: The introduction of an all-new 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged (9A3B6) hybrid powertrain, Porsche has ignited a firestorm of criticism. Is it the future of performance motoring, or a betrayal of everything the GTS badge stands for? Let’s take an unvarnished look.
2025 Porsche 911 Carrera (992.2) Vs. 2025 BMW M4 CS
While not traditionally rivals, there's one area where BMW's M4 CS outdoes the similarly priced entry-level 911 Carrera
When you think ’German Sports Car’, the Porsche 911 and BMW M4 are most likely the models to come to mind. Typically, I would not put them in the same sentence together, but something interesting is happening with both. In the past, BMW almost always tried to desperately keep up with the Porsche 911, especially in its high-performance variants. Over the years, these efforts spawned cars like the BMW M3 CSL (E46) and BMW M3 GTS (E92). A less-known M-car is the M3 GTR (E46), which actually managed to beat Porsche in an area where it typically dominates – endurance racing. But things are different when it comes to road cars. Until now at least. Looking at the price and performance levels, the Porsche 992.2 Carrera may have finally found its match. I decided an unlikely comparison is in order to figure out if the BMW M4 CS really is good enough to dethrone what is, often, considered to be the ultimate sports car.
Here's Why This Porsche 550 Spyder 1:8 Scale Model Costs $30,000
A limited-run model, this 550 Spyder by the Amalgam Collection has a Hollywood connection with a fascinating story
Now, while I’m a man of simple pleasures, I have my indulgences and one of them happens to be automotive scale models. You know the little plastic and metal things that sit on your desk, gathering dust and occasionally falling victim to the vacuum cleaner. Anyway, recently, I acquired a 1:18 scale model of the Porsche 550 Spyder (my fourth) and it’s quite decent. Nicely painted in a rather understated shade of silver, doors, hood, and engine cover that, and even the motor look vaguely convincing. Cost me about fifty bucks. Not bad value, you might think. But then I stumbled upon this… this… thing from the Amalgam Collection that costs $30,000 and I found myself compelled to dig deeper into why the sky-high price tag.
1,000+ HP 2025 C8 Corvette ZR1 For 992.2 911 Carrera 4 GTS Money
The '25 ZR1 may be the most expensive Corvette all of time, but is the least expensive 1000-hp supercar you can buy right now
It was July 2024 when Chevy introduced its most extreme Corvette variant till now, the ZR1. Now, the ZR1 variants, before the C8 generation, had incorporated supercharged V8s. But this time around, Chevy went full-on with a bespoke engine shared with the track-focused Z06, and added two turbochargers! Yes, its 1,064 horsepower output is rather magnificent, especially when coming from an American mainstream carmaker.
992.2 Carrera S Vs. 992.1 Carrera S: Here's What Changed
Porsche finally launches the long-awaited 992.2 Carrera S, with no manual or AWD, but more standard equipment than before
If you’ve been eagerly awaiting the 992.2 Carrera S, then the wait is finally over! Porsche has just taken the wraps off what is considered the most popular 911 trim as its very first model for the 2025 model year. Introduced in 2005 with the 997 generation, the “S” in Carrera S stands for Sport, offering a more potent alternative to the base Carrera.
992.2 Carrera S: What We Wanted Vs. What We Got
The 992.2 Carrera S is highly anticipated and these 5 features are what Porsche 911 enthusiasts want
The Porsche 992.2 update changed a lot of things. For starters, we got the first production 911 to feature a hybrid powertrain. Then, there is the unusual order in which the 992.2 lineup is being released, starting with the base Carrera and mid-range Carrera GTS back in May last year, followed by the GT3 models and the Carrera T in October. We know the Porsche 992.2 lineup will be complete by 2026, and the latest model to join the lineup is the 992.2 Carrera S. Going back all the way to the 997 Carrera S, which first hit the scene in ’05, the ’S’ in Carrera S stands for ’Sport’. There had been a lot of speculation about what is considered the most popular 911 trim. However, the main questions about the 992.2 Carrera S revolved around whether or not it will be a hybrid and thankfully, that is not the case. With that said, I took it upon myself to scout the web and see what people were looking for in this latest Carrera S and how much of it lined up with my predictions. Here’s what I found.
2025 Porsche 911 Carrera S: The Goldilocks Model Of The 992.2 Range
The dot 2 update of the popular Carrera S for the 992 generation finally breaks cover as Porsche's first model launch of 2025, thankfully without hybridisation but no manual either
After what seems like an eternity, the highly anticipated 992.2 Carrera S is finally here. The Carrera S is one of the most popular 911 trims and each iteration since the 997 has built upon the last, and now for 2025, Porsche has made some significant improvements over the outgoing 992.1 model. Available as a coupe or cabriolet and sitting snugly in the lineup between the "entry-level" Carrera and the more performance-hungry hybridized GTS, is it just another variant, or does it genuinely carve out its own niche? I will say this: Porsche has taken what was already excellent and made it even better with a lot more standard equipment and more power. Now, while this new model may not be the most powerful 911 or the most radical departure, it has an understated brilliance that certainly deserves proper investigation, so here goes.
Could The Upcoming Porsche 718 EV Share The Fate Of The Macan EV?
There could be a chance for the ICE-powered 718, but it might come in a different format
Porsche is continuing with the gradual electrification of its lineup, albeit at a slower pace. The fate of the Porsche 718 is one of the more controversial aspects of the German automaker’s EV strategy. While declining EV sales have caused Porsche to backtrack on its electrification efforts, a fully electric 718 is still happening. However, the EV variant of the celebrated mid-engine sports car will be delayed due to battery issues. This prompted Porsche to keep the ICE-powered 718 for a while longer, although not in all markets. It seems the same thing that happened to with the Macan EV is happening with the 718 EV. The Macan EV was also delayed due to battery issues and it seems the theme continues after the model’s launch. Are we seeing the same thing with the Porsche 718 EV? Below, we are looking at some facts as well as what we know about Porsche’s battery issues and how it could affect the production model and launch date.
Porsche Widowmaker: 7 Legendary Models That Can Be Lethal If You Are Not Careful
While all Porsche sports cars are fast, here's how these high-risk high-reward machines gained this infamous reputation
Porsche makes some of the best sports cars in the world. Over the years, the brand has given us some capable machines, many of which are also suitable for daily use on public roads. That said, throughout Porsche’s history, many models have required drivers to be at the top of their game. Getting even near the car’s full potential demands the absolute best of the driver. While you might be quick to think of the original Porsche 911 Turbo (930), it is by far, not the only Porsche sports car to ask a lot from its drivers. Below, I have listed Porsche models, some more known than others, which wouldn’t hesitate to hurt you if you are not awake behind the wheel. There are classic race cars, supercars, and a few 911s, some of which are more recent. Without further ado, here are the seven most dangerous Porsche models that can be labeled as Widowmakers.
Porsche Dealer Near Me: Dealership Directory U.S.A. | 2025
This is a comprehensive list of every single retail Porsche Center in the United States, including From Exclusive Manufaktur Partners and Classic Partners
Porsche’s dealership network in the U.S. evolved significantly since the brand first entered the market in 1950. The partnership between Max Hoffman and Ferdinand Porsche marked the beginning of Porsche’s American presence. Hoffman, a New York-based salesman, was pivotal in establishing the brand’s reputation, despite Porsche’s smaller engines and higher prices compared to rivals. His marketing efforts, highlighting the 356’s performance and quality, led to early success. By 1954, Hoffman was selling 11 cars per week, contributing to Porsche’s increasing presence in the U.S.
RWB Porsche: Top 10 Creations Of Akira Nakai
Subtle is not a word Nakai San knows and these 10 RWB Porsche builds are pure cargasm
If you are a Porsche fan, you have probably come across the name RWB. It stands for RAUH Welt Begriff, which translates to Rough World Concept in German. "Rough” is exactly the word some would use to describe Nakai San’s work on Porsche 911s, but while divisive, his method of modifying the popular German sports car is what makes his builds truly unique. There are plenty of companies that delve into custom Porsche 911 builds, but RWB’s work stands out as the most outrageous wide-body Porsche 911s, made by the Japanese artisan.
Slant Nose Porsche: History Of The Flachbau
Derived from motorsport, the Porsche slant nose gave the 930 Turbo more than just unique looks and here's how it came to be
The 1980s was a truly crazy time. On the one hand, we’d just experienced the oil crisis, which had led to some horrendous cars and ruined previously great ones. On the other – it was a time of innovation, futuristic styling, and some very radical design decisions. Pronounced fender flares, side gills, and pop-up headlights were the norm in those crazy days. When it comes to the Porsche 911, one design stands out as the definitive 1980s styling element – the Flachbau which translates to Slant Nose or flat nose in German.
Reddit Find: 986 Porsche Boxster Safari - Yay Or Nay?
Rocking some ingenious mods, find out if this Dakar-style transformation has increased the appeal of the unloved 986
Look, I’m someone who likes things done properly. A nice cuppa, a well-maintained ride, and a good bit of tinkering with my pride and joy whenever I can. I suppose all bastions of order in this chaotic world if you will. So when something like this Rothman’s Boxster Safari monstrosity pops up on my radar (this time on Reddit) well let’s just say it ruffles my feathers a tad bit. Clearly, this creation was built for someone with an acquired taste.
