The new 991 Porsche 911 is still some time away, but this spy shot from Edmunds Inside Line gives us a great early look inside the car. It looks nice enough and well made, of course, but there’s just a wee bit going on with that Panamera-esque centre console. [Source: Edmunds Inside Line]

60 years of philosophy continued

Another Porsche ad. This time there’s no valet parking. And there’s no family tree. This time it’s, well, to quote AUSmotive reader ‘KGB’, “It’s all turd polish for the Panamera.

A big luxurious taxi

That headline sounds less than flattering, but if you watch Vicki Butler-Henderson’s Fifth Gear Web TV review of the Porsche Panamera Turbo you will see she loves the thing.

Porsche gives financial crisis two finger salute

Porsche has given the global financial crisis a two finger salute by posting pre-tax profits of €7.34 billion for the period 1 August 2009 to 31 January 2009.
