The RennSport name which is German for racing sport is often reserved for the iconic Porsche 911 as its most track-focused and driver-centric version. For the first time ever though, the RS badge is placed on its entry-level sibling, the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS and it’s here in Malaysia. Launched at the newly opened Porsche Centre Johor Bahru (PCJB) in Danga Bay, the 718 Cayman GT4 RS (we’ll just call it the GT4 RS from here on) is priced from RM 1,550,000. Slotting above the previous range-to

As the world slowly shifts towards a more sustainable future, adopting electrification along the way, it is only a matter of time before race cars mirror this arrangement.

Never before in the company's 73-year history (since 1948) has more people bought a Porsche.

If popular motoring culture has taught us anything, is that it sucks being known as the “entry-level” model. The Viva will be more pariah than a prince to the Myvi. Likewise, it is the same for the Porsche Boxster, or as everyone likes to call it – the “car for those who can’t afford a 911”.
