This video is a great clip from U.K Top Gear. The video features James May driving both the Porsche 911 Sport Classic (briefly) and the wonderful Porsche Boxster Spyder.

The Porsche 356 is a good choice as it was the first Porsche and the later models had very good performance for their time.… Read More
The clutch recently went out of Project 944, this is a common problem with cars that have an original clutch. The original clutch on an early 944 has a rubber center that is known to wear quickly, especially if driven hard.
