Street-legal Porsche Cars That Are Killer at Full Throttle : Track Time Tuesday Presented by Yokohama Tire’s ADVAN APEX
We choose some of Porsche’s most desirable daily drivers that double as skillful and brutish track day cars.
Porsche is a brand defined by quality, luxury, and smooth-as-silk performance. Now, do these qualities translate into a ride capable of burning rubber and hot laps at the track? Oh, yes–so much yes. Of course, Porsche has long been a part of professional racing. But we are focusing on Porsches that were designed and produced as street legal, luxury rides. That also can tear it up on the track.
Given that these are Porsches, it is hardly shocking that they deliver the speed, handling, and power necessary to make a good racer. However, these street cars stand out for their ability to handle the demands of the track, and still keep going as a reliable daily driver. They have powertrains that can take on some of the most challenging courses. Also, these Porsches rely largely on their factory-given strengths over extensive modifications. But above all else: they just show what how mind-blowingly fast and brilliantly nimble they are.
