Dualing Platforms

Written by , Posted in Car and Driver

Electric motors and gasoline-powered engines are very different. But on some models—like Maserati’s GranTurismo—automakers think verse platforms that can take either like a champ make good business sense. Others are taking a very different route. Who is doing what, and why, in this confounding era allegedly leading up to full electrification. Check out my primer in this cute digital version, or just buy the magazine on the newsstand you Chintzy Blt¢h.

Pre-Order My New Book!

Written by , Posted in Phaidon Book

I had the pleasure of working on this gloriously researched, produced, and illustrated compendium–The Atlas of Car Design–which goes granular on over 600 of the most interesting automotive designs of the past 140 years. The press that is publishing it, Phaidon, is world-renowned for its amazing graphic sensibilities and high quality materials. And my collaborators, Jason Barlow and Guy Bird, are the best writers in the business when it comes to the subject.

The book won’t be available until the fall, but pre-orders are open now, and are important to the book’s success. I promise you will not regret purchasing this title. (The link above is to the red-covered version. A black version is also available here.)

My First Piece for Panorama

Written by , Posted in Panorama

My first story for Panorama is all about McKeel Hagerty’s 1967 911 S, which he has owned since he was 13. Come for the exploration of the deep emotional connection between humans and machines, stay for the photo of McKeel attending his 80s high school prom. (Special Bonus: a photo of me driving the only Porsche I’ll ever own, my 1978 928)

Click on the thumbnails above, and then click again, to view a crappy scan. Or just join the Porsche Club of America and get the magazine for free, you chintzy blt¢h.
