| VIDEO: Porsche Panamera caught testing in the Arctic Circle. | | 2008-07-06 13:31:00 | | The Porsche Panamera has been caught testing in Stuttgart and on the 'Ring for some time, and now you can add the Arctic Circle to the list. The forthcoming sedan is undergoing cold weather testing in one of the world's most most inhospitable places in an effort to ensure the family man's Porsche's engine will still purr even on your worst winter morning. The car's appearance looks essentially the same as it has prior spy shots, which is to say that it's still ugly, yet it's still A Porsche. With possible plans for a diesel, hybrid, V6, V8, and turbo V8 model on the table, the German automaker will likely be hanging out with Santa and Frosty for quite a while. Hit the jump to see the V8-powered Panamera as it traverses the white stuff.[Source: Inside Line] | | By: Car News | | |

| | Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S | | 2008-06-27 18:32:17 | | Porsche unveiled the facelifed Carrera earlier this month, but now it has facelifted another variant of the 911 family, the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S.
Like the Carrera and Carrera S, the Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S also gets power output upgrades to its engines, with the Carrera 4’s 3.6 liter boxer engine output increasing by 20hp up to 345 horsepower now, while the Carrera | | By: Car, Car Purchase, Buy Car , Car Insurence all abo | | |
| | Porsche unveils 2009 911 Carrera 4 and 4S | | 2008-06-26 08:21:00 | | Well, you knew this was coming. Porsche has followed up the debut of its freshened 997 rear-wheel-drive range with the introductions of the all-wheel-drive 2009 911 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S. Visually, the C4 and C4S are immediately distinguishable from their 2WD counterparts via the red reflector strip spanning the width between the taillamps. That's a nice touch that brings back some fond memories of the 911s of our youth. The C4's rear bodywork is also wider than that of the 2WD cars. Up front, you'll find the same schnoz introduced a couple of weeks ago.
As with the Carrera and Carrera S, the C4 range also gets the new, direct-injected engines and the optional seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) twin-clutch gearbox. Power is up, and so is efficiency, while emissions output goes down. The Carrera 4's 3.6L flat six makes a stout 345 horses, and the step-up Carrera 4S pumps out 385 ponies from its 3.8. It's not just the engine and tranny that are new -- the previous car's all-wh | | By: Car News | | |

| Spy Shots: Porsche 911 Turbo due for upgrades, intent on beating GT-R | | 2008-06-26 08:02:00 | | With Porsche releasing its revisions to the 997 911 Carrera, Carrera S and its all-wheel-drive stablemates, the automaker is turning its attention to its turbocharged 911 and is intent to regain its crown from the Nissan GT-R.
The new 911 Turbo is expected to get a boost in output by 20 hp to net over 490 hp total, along with a similar bump in torque through the use of the new direct injection system that's been implemented on the revised 997s. Not only will power increase, but fuel efficiency should grow by almost 13 percent, with a 14.5 percent reduction in CO2 emissions. The twin-turbo'd flat-six is also expected to get a slight increase in displacement, along with a new crankshaft and upgraded oil and water pump to ensure that things stay cool while thrashing the 'Ring. Expect a modified version of the new, seven-speed Doppel Kupplung (dual-clutch) gearbox to make an appearance on the new 911 Turbo, with tweaks to handle the prodigious torque of the blown mill.

| | Porsche's new PDK transmission trims 911 lap time on the 'Ring | | 2008-06-19 07:46:00 | | Porsche decided to do a little 'Ring running in three different 2009-spec 911 models and quietly let the results slip during a press event. A 2009 911S fitted with Porsche's new twin clutch system (PDK: Porsche Doppelkupplung), Porsche Active Stability Management and "sport tires" took the top place, scoring a 7:50. The new PDK shifts a whopping 60-percent faster than the old Tiptronic S.The first place getter was followed by what is assumed to be a 2009 911S with a manual transmission some eight seconds back, and then a 2008 911 S another four seconds back, at 8:02. There's no word on who was driving the cars, or what exactly counts as a "sport tire."According to FastestLaps.com, Walter Rohrl did a 7:49 in a 997 turbo two years ago. If the next year's 911S is really that close to the twin-blower, that's not a bad feat. Still, the Cadillac CTS-V did the thing in 7:59 -- and so did the C6 Corvette that puts the current Porsche to bed and is an A-pillar away from the 2009... but who's c | | By: Car News | | |

So in addition to direct-injection and a new seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, the 2009 Porsche 911 will also get the availability of XM Satellite Radio straight from the factory. In addition to 170 channels of music, sports, news, talk and entertainment, the satellite radio service will include XM NavTraffic, as well. The digital traffic service offers drivers up-to-date traffic and incident information. All customers who take delivery of a 2009 Porsche equipped with XM Radio and XM NavTraffic will enjoy a three-month complimentary subscription, but they'll probably enjoy the fact that they're driving a Porsche 911 even more.PRESS RELEASEXM RADIO AND XM NAVTRAFFIC TO BE AVAILABLE ON ALL 2009 PORSCHE 911 MODELS 911 is First Porsche Sports Car to Add XM Availability WASHINGTON, D.C. – June 9, 2008 – XM (NASDAQ: XMSR), the nation's leading provider of satellite r | | By: Car News | | |

El diario británico The Daily Telegraph dijo que el padre de Lewis, de 47 años de edad, y que es el representante de su famoso hijo, se disculpó por todos los daños causados después de haber perdido el control a sólo 200 metros de su casa en Hertfordshire, Reino Unido.Un testigo comentó al periódico británico The Mirror: "Comenzó a revolucionar el coche muchísimo y las ruedas le patinaron. Tenía el techo bajado y me miró antes de pisar a fondo. Salió a toda velocidad durante unas 50 yardas de distancia, hasta que perdió el control en una curva". El Porsche Carrera GT plateado valorado en 600.000 dólares, que circulaba por una vía donde se podía circular a 50 kilómetros por hora como máximo, fue fotografiado con algunos daños después de que llegara la policía.

| | Porsche Celebrates 60th Anniversary Luxury and Sporty Road | | 2008-06-05 10:13:00 | | Porsche has now left a mark on the auto industry for 60 years. It all began in 1948 when a man by the name of Ferry Porsche, son of Ferdinand, was searching for his dream car. He didn't find it, so he decided to build it himself. So, on June 8, 1948, a first Porsche prototype hit the road.The Stuttgart-based automaker experienced various highs and lows over these 60 years.In 1992, things were so bad that the company's future was in jeopardy. Fortunately, problems were dealt with and, through a major restructuring plan, Porsche got back on the right track. The model lineup was also revised significantly. The first 911 Targa (model year 1967) By 1995, the financial situation was on the upswing and continued growth ensued. In fact, Porsche has never been as financially secure as it is today -- so much so that the company recently purchased a 31-percent share in Volkswagen AG.Success comes both from the road and the track, including 16 victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.Proud of its acco | | By: Autos Space | | |
| | Porsche 60th Anniversay of 356 Road Car | | 2008-06-05 10:09:00 | | Back on June 8th 1948 Porsche presented the model 356 “no 1”, the very first Porsche prototype to receive official approval for road service. The two-seater open roadster was powered by a 40 horsepower mid-mounted air-cooled flat-4 engine with a displacement of 1.131cc.Much of the underpinnings of this model were derived from the Ferdinand Porsche Snr designed Volkswagen Beetle and would eventually evolve into the full production rear-engined 356, the WCF reported.The 356 saw a production run of around 76,00 vehicles, of which it is thought about half of them still exist today giving us a small insight into how important this model was in the history of the automotive industry.In 1963 Porsche presented the new 911 (which would have been called the 901 had Peugeot not already owned the rights) to replace the 356 and as we all know it continues to thrive following more than three decades of success.More recently we have the Porsche brand venture outside the conventional sportcar with | | By: Autos Space | | |

| | Stink Fast! - Porsche Design cologne | | 2008-06-01 18:35:00 | | One thing some luxury-goods makers are missing out on are male-centric fragrances. Yankee Candle should come out with an entire "Garage Line" of scents like "Winter Ether," "Hydrocarbon Bliss," or the more subtle "Mustang Interior," and "Exhaust." There's a veritable treasure trove of olfactory delight just waiting to be mined by a master nose. Porsche Design isn't waiting for someone else to cash in on this brilliant plan, and the company is releasing its own line of products called "The Essence." Porsche Design is a separate unit from our friends who screw together conveyances, and the firm focuses on industrial design when not fiddling with esters and bergamot. The scents are described as having a combination of cold metallic and warm organic tones, and will be available in aftershave, hair gel, body wash, and deodorant.

| | 2007 Porsche 911 GT3 RS | | 2008-06-01 14:35:07 | | The legendary Porsche RS nameplate represents the ultimate in racing ability and brings back memories of special Porsche models such as the 1972 Carrera RS 2.7 and 1991 911 RS. The engine has 415 HP screaming to a 8400 rpm redline but the close-ratio six-speed transmission with a single-mass flywheel and 44 lbs lower vehicle weight makes the engine rev up even more freely, thus enabling the 911 GT3 to sprint from zero to 62mph in 4.2 seconds. It takes just 13.3 seconds to hit to 124 mph. Top speed is 187 mph. The new RS body is 1.7 inch wider at the rear (a legacy from the Carrera 4 models with which it shares its shell). The muscular-looking rear conceals a wider track that not only improves directional stability but also increases the potential cornering grip of this hot two-seater coupe. The Porsche GT3 RS will go on sale in both Europe and North America. | | By: cars & bikes | | |
| | New Porsche 911 Targa | | 2008-06-01 14:24:24 | | In November 2006, Porsche AG of Stuttgart, Germany, will start offering dealers two new variants of the eleven series at the same time – the 911 Targa 4 and the 911 Targa 4S. For the very first time, these Porsche models will be available exclusively with permanent all-wheel drive and a body that is 44 millimeters wider at the rear. The Porsche Targa 4 is powered by the familiar flat-six engine, delivering 325 bhp of power from 3.6 liters. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds and reaches a top speed of 280 km/h. The more powerful Targa 4S features a 3.8-liter engine outputting 355 bhp. This model sprints to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds, and has a top speed of 288 km/h. | | By: cars & bikes | | |
| | Good to be King: Lewis Hamilton borrows TechArt Porsche for LA trip | | 2008-05-31 15:59:00 | | Lewis Hamilton caught a plane headed west after dominating in Monaco, and when you're a rising F1 star in Los Angeles, you're certainly not going to hit up Avis to rent a Ford Focus – you want your vents to be functional. So Claus Ettensberger, owner of the So. Cal. tuning shop CEC, was kind enough to provide Hamilton with a fully-kitted Techart Porsche 997 911 during his stay in L.A. Granted, anything is kind of a demotion from his McLaren Formula One car, but we could think of worse ways for Hamilton to get around while mixing it up with L.A's elite.Thanks for the tip Steve.[Source: Autofiends] | | By: Car News | | |

| | Porsche 911 Targa by VeloTech | | 2008-05-29 15:08:00 | | Back in 2006 most Porsche fans were rubbing their hands in anticipation of the new Porsche 911 Targa but some were left disappointed to discover the 911 Targa only had a large sliding roof rather than an actual removable roof. VeloTech of Paso Robles, California in the USA has the solution for roughly USD 10,000 and can transform your current 911 Convertible to be a true targa. The new carbon fiber roof can be partly removed to reveal the roll-cage / B pillar and wrap-around rear window. VeloTech, a Euro brand turbo-charger firm, announced at last year's SEMA show that if they can drop the price to USD 6,000 the demand will follow. The targa came about after US government set some strict safety regulations in the 1960's about top-down driving which made it impossible car manufacturers to continue making traditional cloth-top convertibles. In due time manufacturers raised the safety of their soft-top convertibles to meet the new safety regulations resulting in the return of the cabrio. | | By: Car Tuning Styling | | |

| | Porsche U.S. Complain as Not Meet Fuel-Economy Rules | | 2008-05-29 12:26:00 | | Porsche SE may not be able to meet new U.S. fuel-economy rules, which are ``not fair'' to makers of performance-oriented autos, the company's U.S. chief said.The German automaker's cars would have to average 41.3 miles per gallon by 2015 models, under preliminary regulations released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Porsche's average was 26 mpg last year, and it paid $4.6 million in fines for falling short of current federal standards.``The year 2015 in the car market is like tomorrow morning,'' Detlev von Platen, chief executive officer of Atlanta- based Porsche Cars North America, told reporters today in New York. ``We have to find a compromise, these rules are not fair.''Porsche is working to improve its average fuel economy as regulators push for higher mileage and lower emissions of pollutants, and as U.S. average gasoline prices rise to record highs of almost $4 a gallon. The new U.S. standards may almost double fines for not complying.By the end of 2010, th | | By: Autos Space | | |

One question that still remains though is what lies beneath the hood. [Source: Autotelegraaf.nl] | | By: Autoshows | | |
| | 2008 Porsche Boxster RS 60 Spyder | | 2008-05-26 21:18:27 | | It's no secret that Porsche loves to run limited-editions of its popular roadster.
The 1st generation Boxster (that's 986 for those in the know) saw a special 550 Spyder commemorative edition made in limited numbers, while the current (987) Boxster has a North American-only special edition on the market now, of which only 500 examples were produced - all in Porsche's GT3 RS Orange paint.
Now, yet another special edition has been produced that once again harks to the Boxster's heritage.
A beauty isn't it?
Based on the current Boxster S, the Boxster RS 60 draws its inspiration from the 550 Spyder's successor, the Type 718 RS 60 Spyder.

| | True targa-top Porsche 911 available from aftermarket | | 2008-05-24 08:05:00 | | If you've been in the market for a vintage, or just affordable, Porsche 911 in the last ten years, you've undoubtedly noticed the number of Targa-topped 911s for sale. The reason for the glut of Targas is two fold: Porsche sold a slew of them in the 70s and 80s and they remain less desirable than their fixed-roof counterparts. However, the allure of the Targa hasn't been lost.Porsche's introduction of the 911 Targa was largely a response to stringent safety regulations in the 1960s, but the appeal of both an open-air experience (without the aesthetic and noise issues of a traditional cloth convertible) and some manner of additional safety made the Targa a popular choice. Porsche reintroduced its modern interpretation of the Targa last year, but instead of the removable roof and fixed rollbar/B-pillar, it opted for a duo of sliding glass panels.Paso Robles, California-based performance shop, VeloTech, has decided to move beyond its bread and butter business – turbocharging European v | | By: Car News | | |

Porsche denies U.S. production of Cayenne | | 2008-05-15 20:38:00 | | It didn't take long for Porsche to set the record straight about its rumored production plans for the Cayenne in North America. Speaking with Autoweek, Porsche spokesman Albrecht Bamler, refuted a report by Germany's Handelsblatt newspaper that the automaker planned to build Cayenne's at Volkswagen's new factory in the U.S. According to Bamler, there's no need to produce Stuttgart's uber-ute here in the States, since European manufacturers supply parts and Porsche is protected against the weak dollar by currency hedging through 2013. However, Handelsblatt's report said that production of the Cayenne in the U.S. wouldn't begin until after 2015, two years after Porsche's currency hedging expires. Does that mean N.A.-built Cayennes are still a possibility? Bamler says it's too early to speculate on the next Cayenne and Porsche's production plans.[Source: Autoweek] | | By: Car News | | |
| | Porsche 9FF GT9 Hits 409KM/H | | 2008-05-14 14:24:00 | | We have known for a long time that the 9ff engineers intended for their GT9 to take the world record for the fastest production car in the world, now the German tuners are claiming they have achieved the feat with a run of 409 km/h at a track in Papenburg on 10th April. But after searching through our record books and more specifically the current world record speed set by the SSC Ultimate Aero that stands at 255.83mph which translates to 411.71km/h meaning this claim can be thrown out the window. As a consolation 9ff can be happy in the knowledge that they did at least beat the Bugatti Veyron which previously held the record at 407km/h, however one question comes to mind – why did it take so long for 9ff to make an announcement? The GT9 is loosely based on the Porsche 911 GT3 but that is about as far as the similarities go as it is shares just 2% of its components. The GT9 is both lower and longer and you will find the engine in the middle of the car rather than at the rear for bett | | By: Car Tuning Styling | | |

| | Porsche GT9 mais rapido que o Bugatti Veyron | | 2008-05-10 06:30:00 | | Ainda há pouco tempo soubemos que o SSC Ultimate Aero TT bateu o record de velocidade máxima do Bugatti Veyron, que era de 407 km/h, atingindo assim o Aero TT a velocidade de 411 Km/h. Agora é a vez do Porsche GT9 bater a velocidade máxima do Bugatti Veyron, conseguindo atingir os 409 km/h. Este Porsche GT9 é um Porsche 997 GT3 completamente modificado pelos engenheiros 9FF, uma empresa alemã especializada na preparação de Porsches. O local escolhido foi o circuito de testes de Papenburg na Alemanha. Debaixo do capot está um motor 4.2 de 6 cilindros capaz de gerar 987 cv de potência e 964 Nm de binário. | | By: Quatro rodas e um volante! | | |
| | 9ff proves the Porsche GT9 is stupid fast, tops 253 mph | | 2008-05-10 01:08:00 | | There are only a handful of cars that can strike fear into the Bugatti Veyron. The Koenigsegg CCX comes close with a top speed of 242.42 mph, and the SSC Aero Twin-Turbo is even faster, hitting a two-way average speed of 255.83 mph and officially taking the crown of world's fastest car back in September. These über-fast supercars will now be looking over their shoulders with the new kid on the block, the 9ff GT9. Based on the Porsche 911 GT3, 9ff stretches the chassis about a foot and chops the roofline for improved aerodynamics. A carbon-kevlar subframe houses a twin-turbo 4.2-liter flat-6 pushing out 987 bhp. Our German is a bit rough, but we can translate enough of Autobild's recent story on the 9ff GT9 to know they achieved ridiculous speeds in the super Porsche at the Papenburg high speed oval in Germany. 409 km/h to be exact, which roughly translates to 253 mph. We're not sure if there is more speed left in the GT9 to top the Bugatti or the SSC, but it's impressive nonetheless.[ | | By: Autoshows | | |

| | | Porsche boss tops the list of money makers | | 2008-05-05 21:48:00 | | THE head of German carmaker Porsche, Wendelin Wiedeking, is by far the best-paid boss in the sector with an annual salary of some 60mil euros (RM294mil), according to the weekly AutomobilWoche. He is streets ahead of RenaultNissan’s Carlos Ghosn, Ford’s Alan Mullaly, Dieter Zietsche of Daimler and Sergio Marchionne of Fiat, the weekly magazine said. But the salary figures take no account of bonuses, which in 2006 totalled 70mil euros for Wiedeking, a figure which stunned Germany when revealed at the end of last year. Six top board members at the automobile giant shared 113mil euros on top of their basic pay for that year, prompting calls for restraint from leading politicians, including Chancellor Angela Merkel.

La puissance délivrée par les motorisations V6 et V8 a été revue à la hausse tout en réduisant d'environ 15% leur taux de consommation grâce au système à injection directe « DFI ». Désormais fixé à 3,6 litres, le moteur V6 suppose une accélération de 0 à 100km/h en 8,1 secondes et une vitesse de pointe à 227km/h (214 en conditions réelles) pour le modèle de base de la gamme. Il passe ainsi de 250 à 280ch. Le V8 du Porsche Cayenne S a lui aussi été optimisé : un réservoir 4,8 litres remplace celui de 4,5. Le Porsche Cayenne Turbo développe quant à lui 8 cylindres et 500 ch pour un couple de 700 Nm soit 50 ch et 80 Nm supplémentaires. Avec une vitesse de pointe estimée à 266km/h, cette nouvelle version passe de 0 à 100km/h en 5,6 secondes. | | By: Auto linx | | |

| | Beijing 2008: Porsche unveils the Cayenne Turbo S | | 2008-04-21 06:47:00 | | Porsche says that Asian and Eastern European market demand for ridiculously high performance SUVs has resulted in a new addition to the Cayenne range. After a brief respite following the introduction of the current-gen Cayenne, the Turbo S moniker returns. With it comes more power, more torque, newly-available features, and a commensurate cost of entry.Updated engine management and a new exhaust system raise peak output to 550 horsepower and 553 lb-ft. Channeled through a 6-speed Tiptronic S gearbox, that's enough to rocket Stuttgart's new über-ute to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds and give it a top speed of 174 mph. Reining in those horses becomes even easier if buyers pony up for the optional, massive ceramic composite brakes (16" front / 14.5". rear), now available on Cayenne for the fist time. Exclusive "Lava Gray" paint, the requisite badges, body-colored grille slats, 21-inch wheels, and the quad-tip exhaust help clue savvy onlookers into the fact that this is no mere Turbo.

| | | Perversion or Perfection? Porsche 912 converted to electric | | 2008-03-22 15:27:40 | | When Porsche decided to move on from its very successful 356 line, there was a faction of people who were concerned that the 911 would be too expensive and wished the German automaker would stick with its successes -- four-cylinder sports cars to be specific. While history will look back at the 911 as being the quintessential sports car, regardless of manufacturer, Porsche was hedging its bets by also introducing the 912, which had the body of the 911 along with the engine from the 356. The 912 turned out to be a sales success, outselling the 911 for the first two years they were both on the market. Ultimately, though, the faster and more expensive 911 won out and the 912 was discontinued.Now that history class is over, take a look at this Porsche 912, which has had its four-banger tossed in favor of an 88-horsepower electric motor. The lead acid batteries allow for a top speed of 100 miles per hour and a range of about 55 miles at a steady 62 mph cruising speed.

Porsche always waits until everything has been thoroughly tested, so don’t expect the super saloon to debut before 2009.One thing we're sure is is that it will come with a relatively practical hatchback rear compartment where most of its rivals offer the more traditional boot. The rear doors look a great size. Naturally aspirated and twin turbocharged versions of the Cayenne’s 4.8L V8 producing 400hp and 500+hp are expected to be offered.

Unfortunately, at that time, I did not have the answer. But now, with the help of the guys at Fifth Gear, I can finally answer that question: YES, the 135i coupe is a fine car and it performs extremely well on track. I will let you watch these wonderful videos, courtesy of Fifth Gear via 1addicts.com. For higher quality videos, you can use this link from stage6, but you will have to install a small player(well worth it in my opinion). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3comQxPNWI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BeahQyxfvxY | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |
