Porsche Auto Show Coverage
Porsche is a brand of high-end luxury and sportscars with headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany. Founded in 1931 by Ferdinand Porsche, the company is best known for the 911 that's been on sale since 1964. It's also credited with designing the original Volkswagen Beetle in the 1930s under contract for the German government. This connection with Volkswagen exists today, as the latter became full owner of Porsche in July 2012.

Auto Express reports Porsche will unveil the upcoming Macan SUV at this year's LA Auto Show. Citing an unnamed "insider," AE says that the five-door will bow with engines, suspension and interior architecture that will help differentiate it from its Audi Q5 chassis mate. Big shocker there.

Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness 1363210200
Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just ...

As Porsche is celebrating 50 years of the 911, we anticipate a good day for great cars. The new GT3 looks every bit the proper successor to the racy ...

2013 Porsche Cayman spotted in the wild 1353098700
It's no secret that Porsche is bringing the next-gen Cayman to the Los Angeles Auto Show. The automaker can tease us all they want with word of a "new compact sports car," but we know what the score is: the new Cayman is on the way, and we're ready for it. That said, no one has seen what the next-generation of the sub-911 coupe looks like... that is, until ...

Porsche, like the rest of the automotive world, is gearing up for the Los Angeles Auto Show at the end of this month.

Paris: Porsche Sport Turismo Concept introduces Panamera to pulchritude and plugging in [w/video] 1348761600
When we heard that Porsche would be bringing a Panamera wagon concept to Paris, reaction was just as scattered as people's reaction to the Panamera itself; some actually wondering if the Panamera isn't already a wagon, others deciding, to put it kindly, that the back end of Porsche's five-door can only go up, design-wise. Then we saw leaked pics of the ...

Report: Porsche bringing Panamera wagon concept to the Paris Motor Show 1345034700
Ask an automaker what buyers say they want from the next generation of a certain vehicle, and one of the answers will almost certainly be "More room."
