Porsche Models



While reading up on all the impressive engineering, specs, and performance figures, have you been wondering, “are Porsches good race cars?” It will come as no surprise to you that Porsche heritage runs deep in motorsports, and Porsche race cars are among the most successful of all-time! Learn more about Porsche race cars and Porsche race track features with our team at Porsche Westlake near Malibu.

Porsche 911 Success

From the early 1960s to today, the Porsche 911 remains one of the most successful race cars of all-time. When you’re looking for a Porsche on a race track, you can bet that you’ll find a Porsche 911! Porsche racing can’t be mentioned without talking about the history of the 911! While it’s hard to put an exact number on total race wins, the experts at our Agoura Hills-area Porsche Center estimate that Porsche 911 models have racked up upwards of 30,000 victories (and counting) over the years.

24-Hours of Le Mans Wins

With 19 overall wins at the legendary 24-Hours of Le Mans, Porsche holds more wins at the legendary endurance race than any other manufacturer in history. From its most recent domination in the Porsche 919 prototype to Porsche 956 in the 1980s, there’s no question that Porsche race track performances are nothing short of spectacular. After all, you don’t become the most successful manufacturer in all of motorsports by accident.

Race-Derived Porsche Features

Of course, it’s only fitting that Porsche race cars pass down their engineering and performance to the road cars you can find in our new model inventory! But just what Porsche race track-oriented features can you outfitted to your Porsche? The Porsche PDK transmission, now commonly used throughout the Porsche model lineup for lightning-fast gear changes, was originally developed strictly for use on the track. Porsche race cars passed this feature down to models like the Porsche 911, Porsche Panamera, and the Porsche 718 Cayman. And of course, all-wheel drive engineering, turbocharger tuning, Porsche Active Stability Management (PASM), and many more features have been developed for Porsche race track use, only to be refined and used in road cars.
