The holidays are here – so what better time to get into that giving spirit and help out a great cause? Even better: your giving can potentially put you on the receiving end of a 2019 Porsche 911 Carrera T.

Choice is a good thing.

From now on, every Porsche 911 will come with a turbocharged engine.

Few cars are as iconic as the Porsche 911 Turbo, and there are about to be a lot more of them on the road.

Porsche keeps improving its Cayman model and for 2014 the new GTS trim has surpassed even the performance of the 911; that is, if the 911 you’re talking about is a few years old.

It has been another busy year at the AutoGuide office. Once again we have driven and evaluated hundreds of cars this year ranging from the Mitsubishi Mirage to the Dodge Ram to the Rolls Royce Ghost.

If you’ve got a smartphone you know just how versatile these pocket computers are. They send and receive e-mail, allow you to cruise the internet and can even take pictures, to name but a few of their capabilities. They’re essentially real-life Tricorders from Star Trek.

Porsche is recalling 111 of its 911 Carrera and Carrara 4 sports cars from the 2013 model year because the exhaust tailpipe can fracture and fall off the muffler.

Returning for 2013, Porsche will offer its Camp4 Canada driving program to give brand enthusiasts a winter performance driving course that will exhibit its latest sports cars.

The 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S isn’t set to make their world premiere until the 2012 Paris Motor Show late next month, but images of the four-wheel drive coupe and convertible have already hit the Internet.

Challenging drivers from all areas of motorsport, Porsche is now offering the “Grid Fit” challenge — a workout with a leader board meant to test and improve driving-related fitness.

Details about the 2013 Porsche 911 line are expected to be revealed at or before this year’s Paris Auto Show, but fuel milage numbers  for the Carrera 4 and 4S are now available online.

For decades now, Porsche has reserved their turbocharged engines for its top-of-the-line models, such as the 911 Turbo, Panamera Turbo, or Cayenne Turbo. But given the success rival German automaker BMW has been having with its turbocharged powerplants across several of its models, it appears that Porsche may be interested in doing the same.

The long awaited 991-chassis Porsche 911 made its North American debut at the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show, packing more power, less weight and a longer wheelbase.

Porsche pulled the covers off its seventh generation 911 Carrera with nearly 90% newly redesigned or redeveloped components including a 7-speed manual transmission.
