Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 24 February 2011 13:00

CAR's just driven the new Porsche Cayman R, the third addition to Porsche’s mid-engined coupe range to sit above the Cayman and Cayman S. There’s a whole host of weight-saving measures (some welcome, some not), more power, and a serious set of chassis tweaks. It should be the best Porsche Cayman yet – read on for CAR’s first drive review. What ...

Porsche 911 Carrera GTS (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 19 November 2010 17:30

This is the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, and it has the potential to be the best all-round 911 yet. An engine upgrade boosts power and torque; it uses the more seductive wide body from the four-wheel drive models; and features a whole host of other options for not much more cash than a standard Carrera S. Yes, we know the ...

Porsche 911 GT3 RS (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 28 May 2010 11:45

This is Porsche's new 911 GT3 RS, a harder and faster version of the already hard and fast GT3. Traditionally it's the best Porsche 911 variant - the GT2 is often too extreme and the turbo'd engine lacks aural delight - so what's the new one like? Read on for CAR's first drive review. So it’s a Porsche 911 GT3 that’s ...

Porsche 911 Turbo (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher (photography by Paul Barshon), 13 October 2009 14:00

This is the facelifted Porsche 911 Turbo, and it incorporates most of the tweaks made to the regular 911 18 months ago, including the seven-speed PDK double-clutch gearbox.  Are you sure this new Porsche 911 Turbo is new? It looks the same to me... This is a 911 we’re talking about – styling tweaks are always going to be subtle. But if ...

Porsche 911 GT3 (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 23 April 2009 10:00

Back in our January 2007 issue, CAR Magazine named the then-current 911 GT3 as the best Porsche ever. So you could say its updated successor has quite some act to follow. Priced at £81,914 (up from its predecessor’s £79,540), it goes on UK sale in autumn 2009. This new Porsche 911 GT3 looks like the old GT3 to me Yes, ...

Porsche Boxster S (2009) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 Carrera GT (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 GT2 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

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 (2006) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 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 (2006) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 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. ...
