Porshce Quote Of The Week


"I couldn't find the sports car of my dreams, so I built it myself." - Ferdinand Porsche

Dogwood Canyon










Dogwood Canyon, a short drive from Big Cedar Lodge, is a pristine valley laced with history, beauty, and wildlife. A stream fed by waterfalls meanders through the valley. It is crisscrossed by unique bridges, and dotted with trout ponds. Eagles make it their home for the winter feeding on the trout.
The ridge beyond the canyon is home to elk, bison, and longhorns. They actually come up to feed along side the tram that takes you on this mystical tour. The tour is concluded by a cookout complete with Black Angus burgers.

This year Dogwood Canyon is intended only for first time participants. The others will be relegated to piloting their Porsches and dining at the Ozark Cafe, another of our favorite stops. Perhaps the only thing that can rival the beauty of the canyon is the parking lot after each Porsche is safely positioned.

The prerequisites for the Ozark Tour (a road trip for your Porsche) are: you must take your Porsche, you must drive in a prudent manner, and you must have fun. And, yes, the latter two requisites can coexist.

Motor Trend compares the Boxster S

The June 2010 Motor Trend actually starts their article by declaring Porsche the winner. They go on to say that the other three were competing for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. The superlatives were non-stop on the Boxster S.
"The Boxster S is the very best roadster you can get for the money." "But in this contest of speed, style, and top-down dominance, it wasn't even close." "So engaging to pilot, this car epitomizes automotive euphoria." Not bad quotes.
Even more amazing, the Spyder is a Boxster S taken to an even higher level purity and performance. The Spyder is lighter, lower, more powerful, and a touch more hard core. It's no wonder that the mid-engine cars from Porsche are universally praised and remain a moving target for the competition.
The labels: entry level, baby Porsche, and the politically incorrect "chick's car" couldn't be further from the truth with the exception that, yes, women drive them too.
