These first two are pretty cool. I love the green set against the bland freeway colors. As for the following shot, I’m all for the Lamborghini with the Italian bike strapped on, especially if it’s in matching colors, but there’s something about this that just seems wrong. Maybe that’s just hypocritical.
Modern Day Speedster
July 15, 2009 By 27 Comments
I’m not usually much for retro cars nor replicas. The classic autos that I actually like, which is few and far between unless you consider cars from the 80′s to be classics (ouch!), I pretty much only like the original versions of. Replicas feel like “what’s the point” to me. Kind of like drinking decaf [...]
Tempting Porsches #15
May 18, 2009 By 15 Comments
Today’s Tempting Porsche is one that I’m sure the die hard fans will love to hate. In fact, if you’re a Porsche die hard purist, save yourself some frustration and don’t read any further. This is another one of those Porsches I’ve thought about several times since seeing it a few weeks ago at a [...]
Porsche Legends – Part 1
March 20, 2009 By 15 Comments
You may have already gathered this about me, but if not, I’ll come right out and admit it: I’m a bit of a dreamer. I suppose that’s why I enjoy the process of coming up with ideas, trying to figure out how to do things differently or better, etc. I have an easy time buying [...]

February 22, 2009 By 14 Comments
Up on eBay is a 1960 Porsche 356 Roadster that had been parked in an airplane hangar in 1985 and left there for 24 years. The owner was 63 when he parked the car. The car appears to be complete and original, although a build sheet will need to be obtained to verify that the [...]
“Outlaw” Porsche 356: The Ultimate Tough Customer
February 20, 2009 By 58 Comments
I have to admit, aside from a rare few 356 Speedsters, I’m really not an “antique” car guy. I’ve looked at thousands of old cars in my life, but they never really seem to do a lot for me. Some people love the history an antique car represents and long for the good old days [...]

This is the last of the “make use of the crap you’ve dragged around with you for years” series. If you want to see the first four, you can check them out here: Memory Lane #1, Memory Lane #2, Memory Lane #3 and Memory Lane #4. My all-time favorite is still #2. This week is [...]
Visit to Porsche Factory
November 19, 2008 By 9 Comments
When my wife and I were first married, we lived in Germany for about two and a half years. It was a once in a lifetime experience that produced a lot of great memories. One of the most memorable experiences was visiting the Porsche factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, Germany and specifically the factory museum. I was [...]
