More Autobahn Awesomeness: BMW 135i vs. Porsche 997 Turbo

More Autobahn Awesomeness: BMW 135i vs. Porsche 997 Turbo

First, a 135i is hardly competition for a 997 Turbo. That said, this game of high-speed cat and mouse on the autobahn still makes for great video. What are you more jealous of? The fact that there are no speed limits? Or that people on the right yield to faster drivers?

Clash of the Icons: Corvette Grand Sport vs Porsche 911

Clash of the Icons: Corvette Grand Sport vs Porsche 911

The Corvette and the Porsche might both be world-class sports cars, but the engineers who designed them couldn’t have attacked the problem more differently. One the one hand, we have a pure expression of American grunt. One the other, there’s a manifestation of German precision. As Angus Mackenzie says at the beginning of this clip, these machines appeal to guys at the polar opposite of the sports car spectrum.
