Porsche Boxster S (2009) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 10 December 2008 09:00

The Porsche Boxster was the car that saved Stuttgart. Near bankruptcy in the early 1990s, Porsche hit upon the idea of creating a cheap sports car, one that would use the front end of the then-new 911 (the 996) to cut costs. Okay, purists might have bemoaned the original Boxster’s dull looks (toned down from the 1993 concept) and the ...

Porsche Cayman S (2009) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 04 December 2008 12:30

The Porsche Cayman should have been a failure. The first pictures showed an ugly and ungainly coupe tottering on tiny 17-inch wheels, it cost a few grand more than its cheaper-to-build Boxster sibling and it should have always been overshadowed by its 911 big brother. But that never happened. Even though Porsche was clearly trying to reign the Cayman back, all but ...

Porsche Carrera GT CAR review

Ben Whitworth, 04 August 2008 10:32

The Porsche Carrera GT is – or was – arguably the world’s best-selling supercar. Initially Porsche planned to manufacture 1500 of the mid-engined targa-topped two-seaters, but the Leipzig production line called it a day at 1270. Which to even the most jaundiced-eye looks pretty impressive for a clean-sheet Le Mans-inspired £330,000 supercar that’s capable of a genuine 205mph Mind you, ...

Porsche 911 Carrera PDK (2008) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 13 June 2008 07:33

Same-again styling hides some great technical innovations on the facelifted, second-generation 997, Porsche 911. With a new range of direct-injection petrol engines and clever seven-speed dual-clutch gearboxes, the 911 has overnight become one of the world’s cleanest high-performance cars. Once again CAR was first to drive the new 911, so read our first drive road test review here. So Porsche bills ...

Porsche 911 GT2 (2008) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 28 September 2007 05:17

Another yawnworthy 911? Or a yee-hah one? Definitely the latter. 911 Turbo not hard enough? Then how about removing the four-wheel drive, sir? Want to smash the magical 200mph barrier? Soak in the GT2's 204mph v-max and quake in your boots. Oh, and it has semi-slick Cup tyres too. Make no mistake, the GT2 isn't for fools. You won't miss ...

Porsche 911 GT3 UK CAR review

Anonymous, 13 December 2006 12:00

What's the GT3 for, and hasn't it been around for ages? We first drove the car in our dark pre-website days but thought we'd revisit it now that the first few have rolled off the boat onto UK soil. As for what it's for, it's simply for making you smile more than any other 911 on sale. This is as ...

Porsche 911 GT3 RS CAR review

Anonymous, 18 October 2006 11:21

So Porsche has opened the lairy paint tins again. What’s it all in aid of? It’s time for a new GT3 RS, that’s what. Though you might suspect a marketing hand in here, I’m pleased to say it’s all to do with racing. More specifically Porsche needs to build this car to homologate the track-only RSR model for GT racing. ...

Porsche 911 Turbo CAR review

Anonymous, 02 August 2006 06:21

Another Porsche 911 variant? Yup, they've been coming thick and fast, but none faster than this - the eagerly anticipated, four-wheel drive Turbo version. It's the most advanced, refined and rapid 911 Turbo in that model's 32-year history. In Tiptronic automatic form, it takes just 3.7sec to warp to 62mph - that's quicker than the Carrera GT supercar. And it ...

Porsche 911 GT3 CAR review

Anonymous, 28 July 2006 05:33

Here come the high-performance 911's Oh yes. Two years into the life of 997 generation, the Turbo and GT3 are bearing down on us. The Turbo - 480bhp, four-wheel drive, £98k - is on sale now. The GT3 - 409bhp, rear-drive - arrives at UK dealers on 26 August. Which one to choose? Handicapped by only two driven wheels, a ...
