There are a few exceptions, but as a rule, each new generation of a car is bigger than its predecessor. We have known this game for decades. Ever stricter safety standards and customers' desire for ever greater performance are to blame. If you cram more and more technology into your vehicles, you make them heavier. This also applies to previously small and light sports cars, some of which have reached immense proportions.

Even Porsche thinks the 911 is too big

With the imminent departure of the iconic Porsche 718 from the internal combustion engine stage, there's soon going to be a void in the enthusiast's segment, seeking a mid-engined, six-cylinder sports car and there's nothing to fill that void, except there is in the form of a fresh Lotus. The Porsche 718 Cayman GTS, with its perfect blend of performance, agility, and everyday usability, has long been a favorite among driving purists. But as the 718's curtain call approaches, the Lotus Emira V6 emerges as a compelling alternative, promising a unique driving experience and a touch of British flair, and many Porsche fans on the forum agree with this statement.

As a huge fan of ’90s shows like Charmed and Melrose Place (and all their cheesy counterparts), I’ve happily followed along with the careers of many of the stars. I can’t say that Alyssa Milano has starred in a particularly compelling TV series or movie lately, but maybe that’s because she spends so much time talking about politics.

A few years ago, Marc Philipp Gemballa, son of the late Uwe Gemballa, announced the highly limited Marsien, a Porsche 911-based supercar that has been designed for use both on- and off-road. Now, the marque has announced that production of the Marsien is well underway, with all 40 units already spoken for.

I’ve got the ultimate score for anyone smooth enough to take it on. If we can pull this thing off, we’ll have the coolest car to take to PCA track days. All we have to do is infiltrate Broad Arrow Auctions’ Monterey sale later this month and abscond with a highly unique Porsche race car. On the plus side, once we get the car in our grasp, it’ll make for a really swift getaway car. Forget sixty seconds, we’ll be gone in ten. Of course we’d have to repaint the car like a game of Grand Theft Auto to get the heat off of us, which is a shame, because the livery is so good.
