A four-cylinder Porsche? Wie schreklich! That was the initial reaction among purists to the news the Porsche's new 718 Boxster would be a four-cylinder turbo model.

The legendary German sports car manufacturer Porsche introduced its first 911 model in 1963. More than 50 years later, the 2016 Porsche 911 still holds sway for driving enthusiasts of every stripe. The UK's Telegraph recently took the 911 out for a test drive.

If you've kept pace with our blog page here at Porsche Southpoint, you may well recall a post from just a few months ago, in which we profiled our incredible midsize crossover, the 2016 Porsche Cayenne.

There are myriad powertrain options throughout the Cayman portfolio. And though we have love for them all, the penultimate iteration -- the GTS -- may darn-well be our favorite.
