Cars

In the recently published Porsche Unseen, the German sports car -manufacturer treated our imagination to a selection of design studies that had been kept under lock and key until now. That seemed to us like a good opportunity to continue imagining. And so we’re treating you to a selection of our Unseen favorites, cast in stories and in real life. Just because. For us.

"The Banshees of Inisherin" may not have won any Oscars last weekend - but the film about a broken friendship is also an ode to Ireland and its unique landscape. We visited some of the filming locations in a Porsche 911 on the occasion of St. Patrick's Day.

Walter Röhrl is driving the Porsche 911 Dakar. And we try to ask him some questions from the passenger seat. We could have known before.

Our author was given the chance to drive a Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4, the only one of just 112 units in the color Arancio Bruciato. If you’re now asking yourself why he, of all people, was allowed to do that – you’ll just have to read this story to find out.

William Heynes and Amy Shore met just over two years ago. Will is the grandson of the original Jaguar chief engineer, Amy a much-published car photographer. A year and a half ago, they set up their workshop for classic Jaguar E-Types. And this year, the two are getting married. We visited them at their place of work.

A Ford GT and a Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4. What at first seems to us like an odd couple turns out to be a surprisingly good match. How did we come to that conclusion? The cars’ owner explained it to us.

Detroit ranked as America’s poorest and most dangerous big city for years. Now it’s reinventing itself – once again. A drive from the past into the future, through all the highs and lows of the automobile industry.

Chris Hrabalek is the proud owner of the last Lotus Elise Cup 250 Final Edition ever built – complete with custom paint job and vanity plates. And he’s on a mission...

Sometimes all it takes is a change of focus for a new look - as was the case with the recently presented Piëch GT. In the meantime, the vision has also become a car. We look back and ahead.

The Boxster turns 25. And it looks better than ever. We reminisced about last summer and a road trip in the latest generation of the overtly sporty convertible. And let ourselves be gripped by longing. A story about a woman, a fast car and a few hundred kilometers.

On World Cat Day, we look to England - where Jaguar recently unveiled the C-Type, the next of its Continuation Cars. Driving it is an adventure of the unforgettable kind. One of the reasons for this is how incredibly uncomfortable it is to sit in a Jaguar C-Type or E-Type Lightweight. But not only that. It's also a lot of fun.

The first parking garage in history opened 1901 on Denman Street in London. A lot has happened since then: public garages transformed from functional buildings to architectural statements. And some, like the Züblin parking garage in Stuttgart, have even become art galleries. A visit with the Porsche 911 Speedster.

Green is? Life. Vital, open, fresh, agile. A bit like a lizard-green Carrera 4S convertible, which in this context functions both as an object of study and as a creative catalyst. On a drive into the countryside. Of course.

When you meet a development engineer and test driver from Porsche, you wouldn’t really expect the first thing that he says to be that he goes easy on a new car when he’s breaking it in. But that’s exactly what Lars Kern does. He holds himself back. And he can explain quite clearly why he does it that way.

The great freedom? We enjoy it with the American sports car dream par excellence: the Corvette Stingray. A high-frequency road trip for Independence Day. Simply perfect.
