Its not like 911s are low cost here either. I've had the same thoughts about not buying watches and other toys and buying one. Plus my Macan GTS has given me a clue how pricey routine

maintenance would be. Purt of the lure of a MX-5 Miata at the moment! Affordable fun.

I realize there is a whole hype on battery cars but personally I’m not convinced. Yes zero emission sounds great but how much pollution etc is created by producing the electricity and the batteries? I’m no expert but I belief the true future will be in hy...

The harmful tailpipe particles that are proven be a cause of asthma in children and respiratory disease are not being produced. That must be a positive impact.

Totally different cars

Totally different market. I test drove the Taycan and for me it is still too early to trade in my Panamera. Maybe in 2-3 years when there is better i infrastructure. Also, I buy my cars, I worry about resale on these new Taycans that will only exponential...

I know it's a different category of vehicle, but as an electric with range-extender gasoline engine (60 miles & 400 miles), I think it's currently the best of both, although complex, to be sure. In San Diego we have one hydrogen station for 3.5 million pe...

your right, Mazda is making some slick vehicles. Even though I've had some high hp cars lately my car dreams are centered around the newest Miata and the CX-30 Turbo. I could decide between a 911 and a Taycan in les than a second. Trying to hold off on a ...

It is technically a marvel. I never dreamed about a 911, till i took a seat in it. It’s a great car, and the 911 opened my eyes. It is a drivers car, made to eat the road. Despite of its qualities, my view on cars changed. But no worries, i know Porsche h...

This is the car that has given me sleepless nights. I honestly have thought of giving up on watches for awhile and buy one of these 911s back home. The only problem is that cars in my country are ridiculously expensive. But the thought of owning one has n...
