I’m sure Porsche designed its 2014 911 GT3 to be a hot performer.  Probably not as hot a performer as it has been lately.

I remember thinking back when the Murcielago came out in the early 2000s that it took Lamborghini a long time to go with a then-modern 6-speed manual transmission.  Now, the Italian company has gone the exact opposite way.  It offers dual-clutch and automated manual gearboxes, each with seven speeds, but no longer bolts in old-school […] More »

It’s like a big inside joke that translates poetically into their brand, which to me, is pure in its pursuit to capture a demographic of high end ballers. […] More »

I fuckin’ love station wagons. So much in fact, that I’m willing to risk upsetting my editors in order to properly emphasize how enamored I am with this particular class of vehicle.
