Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) CAR review

Porsche Panamera GTS (2012) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 11 May 2012 09:31

The Porsche Panamera GTS makes all the right noises, feels almost as fast as a Panamera Turbo and is kitted out accordingly. If your budget does not stretch to the Turbo S, this is the Panamera to have. But beware - there is major facelift coming in spring 2013. Porsche Panamera GTS: the background Like the Mk1 Cayenne, the Panamera ...

Porsche Panamera V6 (2011) CAR review

Porsche Panamera V6 (2011) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 10 June 2011 09:00

Porsche's Panamera is the entry-level model in Porsche's five-door GT range. Fitted with a 3.6-litre V6 engine, the basic Panamera begs a significant question: without the massive performance or four-wheel drive, does the Panamera's four-seater practicality overwhelm the controversial looks? Read on for out test of the Porsche Panamera V6 to find out... Porsche Panamera V6: the Porsche family car? ...

Porsche 911 Sport Classic (2011) CAR review

Porsche 911 Sport Classic (2011) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 20 April 2011 09:30

Let’s clear one thing up right now before anyone makes a very incorrect assumption. Despite the presence of that evocative ducktail rear spoiler, retro Fuchs-style wheels and a bile-raising reference in the press material to the 911 Sport Classic being the grandson of the legendary 1973 Carrera RS 2.7, the two are distant cousins at best. The Carrera RS was ...

Porsche 911 Speedster (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Speedster (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman, 25 November 2010 12:45

This is Porsche’s new 911 Speedster, a limited-edition special that pays tribute to the original 356 Speedster. It’s also an open-top follow up to last year’s 911 Sport Classic, a 25th birthday present for Porsche Exclusive (the arm of Porsche that created the Sport Classic and Speedster) and a final hurrah for the current 997-generation 911. More powerful with a ...

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Turbo S (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 11 May 2010 10:20

It’s a numbers game with the new Porsche 911 Turbo S. For an extra £17,309 (or £17,324 in you opt for the convertible) you get an extra 30bhp, 37lb ft and lots of standard items that would otherwise be extra on the ‘regular’ 493bhp Turbo. S stands for Sport and Porsche’s marketing team would have you believe this new S ...

Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet (2010) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Glen Waddington, 07 April 2010 10:30

Hmm. A straight set of four stars. Like getting all Bs in your GCSEs. You sure? You’re saying the Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet is a good all-rounder, a Mr Safe-Hands, rather than at the edgy end of party-in-the-pants brilliance? Well, not quite. But read on. Really? The new Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet only gets four stars for performance? 0-62mph in ...

Porsche Boxster Spyder (2010) CAR review

Porsche Boxster Spyder (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 03 December 2009 18:00

Is the new Porsche Boxster Spyder the best Boxster you can buy, or the worst? Rather than being a stickers and stripes special edition, or an expensive limited-run like the 911 Sport Classic, the Spyder joins the Boxster range as a third model. And it features some clever weight saving tech that cleaves 80 kilos from the kerbweight – at ...

Porsche Panamera Turbo (2009) CAR review

Porsche Panamera Turbo (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 28 July 2009 14:30

We’ve already driven the Porsche Panamera S. The comfort oriented, two-wheel drive, normally aspirated version of the new four-seater left us feeling less than infused. Enter the Panamera Turbo, the twin-blown 4.8-litre V8 pinnacle of Porsche’s supercar-cum-limo. Could the £100k Turbo be the Panamera we were hoping for? Behind the wheel of the Panamera Turbo Drop yourself into the Porsche’s ...

Porsche Panamera S (2009) CAR review

Porsche Panamera S (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 24 June 2009 00:01

After months of teaser shots, passenger rides and tantalising details, we’ve finally driven the most anticipated car of the year, the Porsche Panamera. We tested the five-door gran turismo in base-model S trim, meaning rear-wheel drive and a naturally aspirated 4.8-litre V8 – based on the same unit you’ll find in the Cayenne S and GTS – that churns out ...

Porsche 911 Targa 4S (2008) CAR review

Porsche 911 Targa 4S (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Adam Towler, 25 September 2008 08:10

Porsche’s 'Targa' moniker has been applied to open-air 911s since the late 1960s, and now with the latest version complementing the recently launched coupe and convertible models, it completes Porsche’s visually subtle but mechanically thorough overhaul of the 911 armada. We now awaited the Turbo and GT variants... So, this Targa's basically a new Porsche 911 with a big sunroof then? Well, ...
