Why I Like to Remove the Emblems from My Beloved Cars

Going Emblemless on My Beloved Car I ordered my manual transmission car back in April, but production and delivery dates are still uncertain. While researching delivery info and browsing images online to see if I could improve the specs, my husband said this to me: “That car would look cleaner and cooler without the emblem on the back, don’t you think?” Hearing that, I searched online for images of the car both with and without...

Repainting the Wheels of Our Porsche 911 (964) – Do Cars Have Souls Too?

Installing Rear Seat Monitors in the Porsche Cayenne: Now We Can Watch YouTube in the Car

Installing Monitors in the Cayenne’s Rear Seats For the first time in our Cayenne, we installed monitors in the rear seats.

Attaching Grill Badges to Our Porsche 911 GT3 and Air-Cooled 964

Porsche Grill Badges The other day, a package arrived from overseas addressed to my husband. When we opened it, inside was a Porsche grill badge. Now that I think about it, I’ve seen Porsches with these badges at the Royu Driveway observatory before. When I asked my husband about it, he said he had often seen Porsches with these badges on social media and thought, “That’s so cool, I want one on my Porsche too.”...
