Porsche 911 Carrera 4S vs. Porsche Cayenne Turbo
Every time I come across a video like this, it makes me want a Porsche Cayenne Turbo. Some day I'm going to own one of those. At least for a short period. See for myself if it lives up to all the hype of reviewers and owners.

Misha Design Spices Up The Porsche 911 Turbo
Misha, a Porsche tuner I hadn't previously heard of, has released a new kit for the Porsche 911 Turbo (997). It's a body kit that has a number of different options depending on your budget and desired outcome. Here's a quick list of what they replace:
Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet vs. Vespa GTS
This reminds me of a showdown Top Gear put together a couple of years ago that pitted a Porsche Cayenne Turbo against a Red Devil Parachuter (Porsche Cayenne Turbo vs. Red Devil Parachuter Race). Only this one is a bit more outrageous. Now, of course you can guess this isn't a test of pure speed, but instead of urban capabilities as the race "track" consists of the surface streets of Manhattan during rush hour traffic.
Spectre 341 Challenge in a Porsche 911 Turbo
Ezra Dyer, a writer for Automobile Magazine, took a Porsche 911 Turbo to the Spectre 341 Challenge this year. Originally organized by Hans Turner during his stint as the president of the Ferrari Owners Club of Southern California in the 1970's, the Spectre 341 is a 5.2 mile hill climb up Nevada Highway 341. The goal is to tackle 6,200 feet of elevation through 22 turns in a time of 3:41 or less. That requires an average speed of 85 mph.
858 HP Porsche By Sportec
Thanks to Lyndon, one of our PorschePerfect.com readers, for sending this link over. Some of the numbers tuners are getting out of the Porsche 911 are just mind boggling. When you start getting up to 600, 700, 800 or even 1,000 horsepower, you're talking a world most of us will never experience. I can't imagine having that much power on tap. Maybe some of you can shed light on what it would even be like to drive a car with that much power on the open road.
Thanks Everyone!!!
Just wanted to say a big thanks to everyone for pitching in to try and track down the rear wing one of our readers was interested in finding for his 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo. It will come as no surprise to the regulars here that James O is THE MAN once again. He tracked it down as a Porsche factory wing. Thanks James!

This is a bit of a unique request, but I figure there are lots here who wouldn't mind helping a fellow Porsche enthusiast. Especially one looking to add a little something to a 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo!
First Ever Porsche 911 Turbo
This is an amazing find by a guy named Alex Nunez. He happened on what appears to be the first ever Porsche 911 Turbo at the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance earlier last month. He said it was a little tucked out of the way and unless you read the placard in front of the car, you'd think it was just another 1976 or 1977 930. This special car is the prototype 911 Turbo. The very first factory turbocharged Porsche 911.
2010 Porsche 911 Turbo Track Testing Video
This video is worth watching just to hear this thing take off. They show stats on the video clips as they finish different tests. I love that root beer color too.

This is a decent video in a stinkin fast 911 Turbo. 850 hp on racing fuel.
