At last the wraps have come off the production version of the Porsche 918 Spyder.

It then trasnformed into the 918 RSR for the Detroit Auto Show in 2011, with the order book […]
It seems the Porsche 918 Spyder has had more announcements and reveals than a Hollywood wannabe, but it’s about to have its final and complete unveiling at Frankfurt next week. We’ll bring you more then, but first here’s what Porsche has to say: The 918 Spyder is the continuation of the traditional Porsche DNA in […]

For a while there it seemed we couldn’t go more than a few days without featuring some Porsche 918 content. Well, this is just the second post on the 918 for the year.

We’re sorry that we’re bringing you even more Porsche 918 Spyder content. But when Walter Röhrl speaks, we tend to listen. Okay, in this promo piece from Porsche, Walter doesn’t really say a lot.

Buried in that article was a link to the press kit supplied by Porsche when the 918 was at the Nürburgring. It’s not been made available to the general Porsche press outlets so we were keen […]
Chris Harris doesn’t like doing ride stories. That’s fair enough, driving a car for oneself is always more satisfying. But he’s made an exception for the exceptional Porsche 918 Spyder. Truth be told, there’s not a lot of excitement in this clip. But if the technical aspects of marrying a 3.4 litre V8, which traces […]
Last week we reported at AUSringers that Porsche had claimed a 7 minute 14 second lap time for its 918 Spyder hybrid. Since then Porsche has added a handful of new photos—all available here as 2000px super images—and explained a little more about the time recorded. They say the 918 set its lap time on […]
