Lights, Cars, Action: Luftgekühlt 6 Goes To Hollywood

Brumos Porsche 914-6 GT IMSA GT Championship winner drivers Hurley Haywood Petter Greg

With summer winding down, we can’t help but reflect on our favorite event of the year: Luftgekühlt 6. Of all the Porsche events that exist in the universe–or at least here on Earth–Luftgekühlt, the “air-cooled only” Porsche extravaganza is more or less without equal, eclipsed only by Porsche’s infamous Rennsport Reunion. Luftgekühlt, the creation of…

CarPark NYC: Cars & Coffee In Industry City

Seldom do we hear Manhattanites discuss Cars & Coffee events, so as former Los Angeles residents, it never really crossed our minds to look for local gatherings in Manhattan or the surrounding boroughs. This makes sense considering most locals don’t own a car–or a driver’s license for that matter (gasp!)–due to the sky-high costs of…

CPR Classic: Bringing New Life Into Old Porsches

On our drive back from San Diego, we paid another visit to CPR Classic Restoration (CPR) in Fallbrook, California. Earlier in the year, we had visited CPR during the LA Lit & Toy Show open house weekend via tour bus but only had 40 minutes to check out the facility due to our late arrival and return…

It’s that time of year again – the New York Auto Show at the Jacob Javits Center (Javits Center). And with one of us having worked tradeshows at the Javits Center in a non-auto related industry for over a decade, this visit was a different experience in an old but familiar building. The building’s façade…

We arrived in Los Angeles for a long weekend of reunions with some old friends and of course, a visit to The Porsche Effect exhibit at The Petersen Museum. We made it to the museum just in time for a late lunch so we decided to check out the L.A. food truck scene. Luckily there…

Fast Butter: A Tasty Surprise At Restaurant 356

We almost never order bread at restaurants because nine times out of ten, it’s pretty average. But when we arrived at Restaurant 356 at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta, our waiter highly recommended it. Here’s why… Speedster motif, fast cars and a view of the Porsche handling circuit. This is not your average bread and butter. …

Helmuth Bott’s 959: The Prototype for Modern Porsches

Last fall, we came across a red 959 at the Driven To America event in New York and being that it’s such a rare car, especially in the US, we were thrilled to see one again. This time, the car was silver and just so happened to be Chief Engineer Helmuth Bott’s (Dr. Bott) personal vehicle…

The Man Who Saved The Porsche 911: Peter Schutz, Passes Away At 87

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Peter Schutz, the man who saved the Porsche 911.  On Oct 29, 2017, the auto and motorsports’ world mourned the loss of Schutz, former President and CEO of Porsche AG – a legend. His story with Porsche began when U.S. sales were falling and the production…
