        Yay speedhunters!













































        To be honest, when we posted our call out for reader-owned Porsche 911s last week we had no idea what to expect. While we know these cars have huge following, we weren't quite sure how many Speedhunters readers actually have a 911 sitting in their garage. It turns out that quite a few of you do own 911s, and they have been coming through the #FeatureThis inbox in big numbers. There are lots of cars to share, so let's get started with the Porsche loving!

        “Are you sure you want me to drive your car? If you are feeling nervous, it’s not a problem at all that we don’t do this.” This was my offer to Richard Good, the managing director at KW Automotive UK. The truth of the matter was that it was me who was feeling nervous, not him. …

        Shortly, we will be joining in with Porsche’s celebration of 50 years of the 911. As part of those celebrations, we are seeking your favourite photographs of Porsche’s most iconic model. The evolution of the 911 has been one of the most fascinating developments in the automotive world. With each generation, the design has been …

        I would like to personally thank each and every one of you who have taken the time to fill out the 2011 Speedhunters Survey. While we have been operating the site based on instinctual observations for the past few years, having you tell us outright about your automotive lives has been a real eye-opening moment …

            love the 918, but it sounds too Ferrari-like with that flat crank v8.. I think Porsche could've gone back to its roots and made one helluva flat 8 like the one in the old 908, except with water cooling, direct injection, etc.. it would mount lower in the chassis too for lower center of gravity.. not to mention the sound ;-)))

              I totally agree with you...and the sound! But I think the 918 block is based on existing designs, isn't it? And the packaging isn't as good with air tunnels underneath with a boxer.

                definitely one of my favorites:



                not sure about the 918 block being an existing design, unless it's the same block as the Panamera/Cayenne or Audi V8 - definitely not the same internals though...

                  IIRC, it's based off of the LMP2 RS Spyder V8.
