Porsche Mission S Maps a Permanent Mid Engine Path Above the 911

By Bill Smith October 16, 2026

Porsche chose a pier in Queens for the world premiere of its Mission S vision model yesterday, a spot that once framed the earliest photographs of the 550 Spyder back in 1953. That deliberate return to a mid-engine layout sets the tone for a new super sports car platform that will sit permanently above the 911 rather than appear as a limited-run hypercar. Dr. Michael Leiters, chairman of the executive board, described it as a permanent and versatile addition to the customer offering, one that gives a clear view of design features meant to shape the brand in the years ahead.

John Dixon already owned a building full of Porsches when he decided his daughter’s wedding needed something more personal than a rented car. Around 2001 he asked Don Boeke, the Dayton customizer known as The Egyptian, to turn a tired 1953 Pre-A 356 into a four-door limousine.

Mike Lake Printed a $750,000 Porsche GT3 RS and Took It to Sydney

By Bill Smith September 16, 2026

Mike Lake wanted a Porsche 992 GT3 RS and refused to wait for a lottery allocation or a secondhand bill north of $750,000 Australian ($535,000). He bought a tired 986 Boxster for about $13,000, drove two thousand kilometers to collect it, and set out to wrap that mid-engine roadster in a full-size printed replica. He calls the result GT3D. Consumer printers, PETG filament, and a garage in Melbourne did the rest.

By Bill Smith August 15, 2026

A single customer handed Porsche’s Sonderwunsch team a nearly new 2018 911 GT2 RS with the Weissach package and asked for something that had not existed in decades. The result is the Flachbau RS, a factory one-off that stretches the front of a modern turbocharged 911 into the flat, purposeful silhouette once reserved for the most extreme racing cars of the late 1970s.

When a 1,139-Horsepower Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric Ran Beneath the World’s Biggest Plane

By Bill Smith July 25, 2026

Mojave Air and Space Port sits in the high desert where the air stays dry and the runways stretch long enough for machines that refuse ordinary limits. On a recent morning there, a prototype Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric rolled into position under the shadow of Stratolaunch’s Roc. Six jet engines sat silent for the moment. The SUV waited between the twin fuselages of an aircraft whose wings span 385 feet.

By Bill Smith June 10, 2026

Right on the red carpet at the Toy Story 5 world premiere in Los Angeles, Porsche presented three fully functional one-of-a-kind 911s.

Porsche worked closely with Pixar designers Bob Pauley and Jay Ward to translate the characters into metal, paint, and leather. This project follows their earlier collaboration on a Sally-themed 911 from the Cars movies.
