2013 Porsche 911: Who Needs Rear Seats?
May 15, 2013
Most hardcore sports car fans would call the rear seats in the Porsche 911 useless. And they would be right to a large degree. You can't fit adults in them and even kids need to be small to wedge in there for any length of time.
2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet: Frunk Holds More Than You'd Think
May 9, 2013
Both Erin and Mike said the frunk in our Porsche 911 Cabriolet held their carry-on bags but not much else. They had to use the interior for extra cargo space.
2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet: Road Trip to New York, Day 1
April 9, 2013
Days ago, I told you the long-term 2013 Porsche 911 and I were on the road to Midtown Manhattan for the 2013 New York Auto Show. Well, we made it there. Although, as with most road trips, a few things didn't go according to plan. But the Porsche is alive and well, and if you follow @Mike_Magrath on Twitter, you also know that it escaped the city and went on to have more adventures on the journey back to the West Coast.
Now, we bring you the story of the 6,000-mile road trip in our 991-generation 911 Carrera Cabriolet. I'll tell the first half. Mike Magrath will tell the second half. At the end, we'll total up the miles, gallons, mpg and dollars spent on premium fuel, and ask you to vote on which editor you'd rather ride with on a cross-country road trip. Kidding. But I guarantee you will like one of us less after you read about this trip.
Here's how it started.
2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet: Airport Shuttle Duty
March 13, 2013
Last week my Mom flew into town from Vermont to spend a couple of days with me before heading down to a conference in San Diego. I hadn't thought about what car I would have in advance, and it just happened to be our long-term 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet.
As I was pulling into the airport I started questioning how smart a choice the 911 convertible was. And how much luggage my Mom would have.
2013 Porsche 911: Large Trunk
January 25, 2013
That is not a small box. It measures 12-inches tall, 16-inches wide and 22-inches long. I didn't think there was any way it was going to fit in the Porsche's frunk (front trunk, remember, the engine is in the back).
I was wrong. Very wrong.
It not only fit, it fit with several inches of height to spare, and many inches of room around the sides as well.
