  • Screencap from Porsche 911 Identity video

    The term “iconic” is thrown around a lot when describing the 911 but few others cars can lay claim to being consistently recognizable for a span of more than half a century. Yes, the 911 has retained its shape and unique engine layout over the years and no other car better represents an automaker like the 911 does.

However, that doesn’t mean the car hasn’t had its fair share...

  • 2012 Porsche Panamera S Hybrid drag race

That's a tall order for any car, much less the first real production car from a loan-funded startup. But talking with Tesla's employees makes it clear that it's not just the vision of one man, but the passion of everyone involved. Whether that'll be enough remains for the test driving, as on paper, the Model S is what it claims to be...
