This issue’s cover features an original painting by Nicolas Hunziker, which was commissioned to celebrate a very big year in Porsche racing history as well as a defining year for the 911. Inside, you’ll find Bob Chapman’s story on a 4.2-liter Cayman S—our first look at serious hot-rodding with Porsche’s new-generation 9A1 flat six. Senior Editor Bill Oursler ably handles a profile on Derrick Walker, the team manager behind the Falken GT3 RSR’s unexpected win at Petit Le Mans and a man with Porsche ties going back to Indy and the late Al Holbert.

Randy Wells introduces us to a PCA member who still enjoys driving his beautiful early 911S on the street, proving there is life after many years of PCA and SCCA racing. Peter Linsky tells us the story of a 1958 356 Speedster that lived a hard life as a track-worthy daily driver before its concours restoration. Finally, Ada Lee Halofsky checks out what may be the world’s best 1974 914 1.8—a Porsche so clean and original that its owner was literally clubbed with a checkbook at last summer’s Porsche Parade. He didn’t sell.

Of course, regular Panorama departments Art & Canvas, European Windows, Junior Driver, From the Regions, Street Talk, Tech Q&A, and zwART are all present and accounted for. We hope you’ll enjoy the issue!

In this issue, you'll find Ted West's tale of one doctor's 1996 Carrera 4 Cabriolet, a well-worn 993 that's gone the distance of six-hundred Indy 500s (in case you're doing the mental math, that's 300,000 miles!). He follows it with a feature on his time in 981s and 991s at Porsche's Canadian Camp4, that school of ice driving and, er, self respect. In our ongoing celebration of the 911's 50th anniversary, Senior Editor Bill Oursler tells us how the hallowed RSR nameplate got its start in North American racing, and why it owes much of its success to the crafty politics of one man. Features about more PCA members' cars follow. The first, written by Ada Lee Halofsky, covers a fantastic green 1956 356A coupe saved by a couple who fell for the 356 and just had to have one. Then author/photographer Zach Mayne introduces us to a young PCA member who went all out to build the car of his dreams: a 3.1-liter 1988 Porsche 944 Turbo S.

In this issue, you’ll find noted Porsche expert Randy Leffingwell’s story on the 991 Turbo and Turbo S—which uses pioneering technology to make it the fastest Porsche over the road yet. Ken Gross checks out the 16-cylinder 917 engine, the largest Porsche powerplant ever built and an exploration in the quest to utterly dominate Can-Am racing. Valerie Roedenbeck Maloof spends time with Grand-Am and ALMS star driver Leh Keen and the factory-built 993 race car he got his start in—with PCA Club Racing. Peter Falk, the famous Porsche engineer, pens an exclusive article on the development of the 911 for Panorama’s ongoing series celebrating the iconic Porsche’s 50^th anniversary. And, finally, funnyman Ted West gets the last word with his look at a 986 Boxster S that has been rebodied as … a Karmann Ghia Convertible — and quite well, in fact.

There is timing, and then there is timing. Taking a job at Panorama in the 911's 50th year is one of those things you couldn't - or wouldn't - write, put Porsche's most iconic car has been challenging me since I drove one for the first time in the 1990's.

I suppose the 911 has been challenging me since I was a little boy. Back then, I didn't know quite what to make of its styling, or the fact my best friend would trade any of his Matchbox cars but that one. Actually, the object of his obsession was a Tomy Pocket Car, a silver 930...

In this issue, Pete Stout drives the new 911 GT3, Porsche’s new, PDK-only back-road/track weapon. But before he does so, he drives a manual transmission-equipped 991 Carrera S, the most sporting 911 you can buy with a clutch pedal. In The Long Crossing, Ada Lee Halofsky travels to Traverse City, Michigan, for Porsche Parade 2013, and experiences the biggest PCA event of the year and the camaraderie that exists between PCA members. Think a 356 Carrera GT Speedster is too valuable to drive? In Easy Rider, Randy Wells spends some time with the owner of one such über-rare 356 who thinks its value would be lost if he didn’t drive it. Next up, Ted West visits Watkins Glen International during a 944 Cup race weekend and discovers the most affordable way to race a Porsche in Looking for Roger Penske. Porsche is about ready to release version two of the Panamera, or type “970 II,” and in See Change, Matt Davis details the new car’s numerous updates, including the new twin-turbo V6 that replaces the V8 in the S and 4S models.
