I’ll admit, I love the idea of camping much more than I love actually going camping. My wife, on the other hand, loves camping. She’s definitely the driver of weekend trips to spend time in the great outdoors for our family. However, I think all of that could change if she’d agree to going camping [...]
The caption on the site says it all: “Porsche. Engineered for Magic. Every day.” How true is that?! I stumbled across the Porsche Every Day site a couple of days ago after watching a couple of cool new commercials they’ve been running on TV. The site is a collection of stories from Porsche owners and [...]
I love stories like this. Partly because they hit so close to home and I know what’s it like to realize a nearly lifelong dream of owning a Porsche. Erik, who won our little On The Job Gift Pack Giveaway, emailed me some great news last week. Here’s what he had to say: Just a [...]
My wife first stumbled across Route 30 Classics a few years ago while on a bike ride in the area with some friends. As soon as she told me about it, I was ready to roll that day, but it took another year to actually get back there. Unfortunately it ended in a failed attempt [...]
I ran across this old press release and photos about Porsche No. 1 as it was headed to Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance a couple of years ago. This is great history lesson on the first Porsche ever build (and driven) way back in 1947/48. For those of you who don’t know the history of the [...]
I’m always on the lookout for good Porsche stories. Some of them can be pretty inspiring and it’s cool to see what kind of memories are built around the brand we love. Nick, one of our younger PorschePerfect.com readers, has been emailing me about a trip he planned to take to see his grandfather and [...]
Here’s the second press release I came across at Porsche Cars North America. Some great milestones over the past 60 years. Porsche Marks its 60th Anniversary Year With a Road Trip Past Major Milestones ATLANTA—August 13, 2010—Over the past 60 years, the Porsche family tree has spread strong and deep roots in American soil. During [...]
This is probably going to seem a bit strange, but I ran across 2 cool press releases today that I found to be pretty interesting. Rather than try and do some fancy re-write, I’m just posting them up in their original form here. The first is a look at Porsche’s representation in art, film and [...]
This is a great story I read on a NY Times blog. It details the adventure of one Porsche fanatic from driving a 1961 Beetle, pretending it was a Porsche, to the acquisition of the gorgeous 1965 356 pictured above. Definitely worth the quick read here: Memories of a Porsche 356. [Image: Fred Heiler]
