Old Parked Cars

Old Parked Cars

January 6, 2012

Old Parked Cars is exactly that. Tony Piff and his brother Ben (both BMX riders) live in Portland and post photos of found cars in their area. I particularly love the Porsche and Mercedes-Benz collections, but what makes their site great is the sheer variety. From rare to common to well-worn to ultra-weird… the only [...]

Vietnam Photo Essay – Brady Erickson

Vietnam Photo Essay – Brady Erickson

November 8, 2010

A group of us were out with our buddy Brady Erickson recently when he casually mentioned that he was taking off for Vietnam in a few days. By himself, with no plan, not even a return date. A few weeks went by, and I got these photos and this email: “Trip is going really well… [...]

Mini VS. Porsche

Mini VS. Porsche

June 22, 2010

Mini is a rad company with a great brand message that makes pretty cool cars (which unlike any car except for the Pruis, totally defy any sort of social classification) based on REALLY cool cars but with clever marketing and childish speedometers. Porsche is a stubborn brand with a proven race history and a flagship [...]

Cars

November 29, 2009

Judging by the response to most automotive-themed posts here on Defgrip, it seems a lot of our readers are car enthusiasts.  Below are a few really good automotive sites which feature (usually) the sort of cars that I love, and that most of you seem to love too… Listed in order of the frequency with [...]

Woody Itson on Jalopnik

November 2, 2009

Jalopnik is one of my favorite automobile websites mainly because the writing is usually pretty smart and funny, and some of the cars they feature are up my alley. This post has it all: BMX history, a Porsche, and a good laugh. Check the post here. Disclaimer: normally I’m not a big endorser of the [...]

Grain Edit has a rad collection of vintage Porsche posters from the 60′s and 70′s on their site. I could definitely live with any one of these poster blown up huge in my house, the only problem would pick picking one… Check out the Porsche posters on Grain Edit.

Audi and BMW Billboards

Audi and BMW Billboards

April 15, 2009

I thought that these Audi commercials were pretty funny and accurate because they made fun of Lexus, a car which no self-respecting car enthusiast would buy. But then I drove by their Santa Monica billboard which says “Your Move, BMW” and thought it was a bit weird, not just because it’s corny but also because [...]

Ruf Electric 911

Ruf Electric 911

October 14, 2008

On average I’d say that Jim Bauer and I send each other about 15-20 Porsche- and Mercedes-related emails per day. Here’s the latest one I received: News that esteemed Porsche tuner Ruf has unveiled their electric 911 concept. There are some electric Porsches of the vintage variety already out there, but it’s cool to see [...]
