Introduced in late 1991, the Porsche 968 entered production as the highly refined successor to Porsche’s 944 with sleek, aerodynamically efficient bodywork and pop-up headlamps reminiscent of the 928. The M44/33 DOHC 3.0-liter inline four-cylinder 968 powerplant remains a revelation, delivering 236 factory-rated hp and 225 lbs./ft. of torque wit..

The Vantage moniker dates back to the early 1950s with the DB2 Vantage. Aston Martin continued to use it throughout the decades on many “DB” cars, until 1976, when the Vantage name moved to the V8.

A clean-sheet design, the 996 stirred controversy as it was the first 911 to transition from air to water cooling to better meet emissions and noise regulations. As per custom, Porsche built different versions of th..

With its two previous generations, based on the E30 and E36 platforms, firmly cemented as performance legends, BMW introduced a new M3 to the public for the 2001 model year.
