Welfare Porsche 

An old, battered, worthless car that had previously been a flashy, expensive status symbol when it was new. These are driven by poor people who falsely believe that ownership, even if impractical, continues to be an outward sign of success and status.
He thought he looked cool when he drove up in his welfare Porsche -- a rusty1977 Chevy Camaro with a blown head gasket.

Porsche is one of the more popular sports car manufacturer. Founded in 1931 as an engineering consultant by Ferdinand Porsche. The most popular model as of yet is the 911, which made its debut in 1964 as a sportive car. It has always come with a Boxer-6, but the displacement is generally upped every evolution. Despite the ever-evolving chassis and engine, the styling is often described as timeless and the engine remains in the rear(not ideal). A turbo model of the 911 has been in the line-up for 30 years and has cemented Porsches place in performance car history by reversing everyones' views about turbo cars. Porsche also offers their cars for less than Ferrari and Lamborghini which keeps them as an "affordable" sports car.
Some say Porsches are not built to perfection, but are engineered to perfection.

The automobile manufacturer (founded in 1931 by the Austrian Ferdinand Porsche)responsible for the 917/30 and the 956 and the 962 cars. Three of the fastest non open-wheel race cars ever made. Also note the fact that they won Le Mans 24 hours a record 16 overall victories (a record still not broken). Porsche used the Kunhle, Kopp and Kausch turbochargers to great effects in the 80's. 911 is their best road car and has gone through several minor face lifts through it's successive generations. The 911 remains to be the most user-friendly, everyday maniac sportscar to buy today. The company is located in Stuttgart.
The Porsche 917 is a race car that gave Porsche its first overall wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970 and 1971. Powered by the Type 912 flat-12 engine of 4.5, 4.9, or 5 liters, the long-tailed version was capable of a 0-62mph time of less than 2.5 seconds and a top speed of over 248 mph (394 km/h). In the 1973 CanAm series, the turbocharged version Porsche 917/30 developed over 1100 bhp, and as much as 1500bhp in qualifying tune.

Porsche 924s 

Classic Porsche that evolved into the 944. The 924s came with the same exact engine as a 944, and the same transmission. only difference is the 944 is more heavier because of a wider body. 924s would win in a race tho. very quick off the line. Only thing that sucks about it, is that you have to take like 2 things apart on the engine just to get to 1 thing.
That black 924s just blew that 84 red trans am off the line and in the long run.

Man that Porsche 924s will eat ur automatic 5.0 Mustang alive

Porsche Cayenne 

A yuppie's wet dream: the fancy sportscar and the gratuidous SUV, all in one.
Porsche is only getting into sport-utes for the market share, along with the incredibly shitty Mercedes M-Class.
