We don't know about you, but we're so relieved to learn our Porsche Cayenne can now tow our private airbus to the airport for us.

We're kidding, of course. We don't own an airbus. But we're not kidding about the Porsche SUV being powerful enough to tow one.

The annual New York International Auto Show is getting ready to kick off and excitement is building around here at Porsche of Monterey as car companies prepare to show off all their newest innovations.

One thing we're especially thrilled to see is what exactly Porsche is hiding under that tarp.

After a year that saw over twenty different model variants arrive at our Seaside, CA dealership, Porsche Cars North America is pleased to report on its seventh-consecutive year of increased sales. With nearly 55,000 vehicles sold from the automaker's selection of luxurious sports cars and SUVs, 2016 rang to a close with just shy of a 4.9 percent increase in sales over the previous year. Not to be outdone, Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned sales also increased by 15.1 percent last year, with 16,981 units moved in the United States.

Have you found yourself craving the high performance of a thrilling convertible in order to take full advantage of the greater Seaside, CA roads? The team of expert sales representatives here at Porsche of Monterey can't recommend the 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster enough. With a flashy exterior that exudes confidence and throughout the exuberant interior, this model proves its worth by offering every driver a ride that can't be matched by its peers - ripe with half a century of experience.

The world of endurance motorsports is one that is rarely touched upon here in the Porsche of Monterey blog, although it is a rich part of the Porsche brand and its history. In 2014, Porsche made its return to the fold of top level endurance racing, where it continued to spar with rival brands for the top spot. It is here, in this arena where many breakthroughs and innovations are made that eventually shape the modern models of the Porsche brand.

Since it first emerged on the roads of Seaside, CA and the nearby areas, the Porsche Panamera has been redefining the world of wagons, providing versatility, performance, and immense luxuries for drivers throughout Seaside, Monterey, Marina, Salinas, and beyond. With 330-Horsepower, this particular model delivers the exceptional thrills that many drivers will appreciate as they adventure throughout the Monterey area, whether enjoying the sights of the coast or simply running errands throughout town.

Here in the Monterey area, enjoying the roads and opportunities for automotive excitement is made easier by the array of new models that drivers can get into. Here at Porsche of Monterey, we're committed to getting drivers into the perfect vehicle for their future. With impressive performance attributes, allowing the base models to accelerate from zero to sixty in approximately six seconds, while turbocharged versions of the Porsche Macan drop that time to four point six seconds and astonish drivers of all kinds, making it an ideal option.

When Porsche first introduced drivers around the world to the Porsche Panamera model, many drivers were understandably skeptical. Did it fall into a wagon category or a hatchback? And why would Porsche move beyond the realm of excellent sports cars? If we've learned anything since the Panamera first emerged, it's that no matter what we think we know about Porsche vehicles, there is always more to discover. The Panamera is a Porsche model through and through, offering stunning performance and luxury, with a newfound versatility in the interior space.

The legacy of the Porsche brand is unquestioned, born on the racetrack and molded into street-legal forms to deliver the height of automotive performance, Porsche models are truly in a league of their own. You've likely heard the recommended medical advice about maintaining an increased heart rate for a period of time each day, and while it doesn't quite count as exercise, the high-performance new Porsche models at Porsche of Monterey will easily help you to fulfill this goal.

While there are always going to be numerous options for drivers to choose from, few models can match the offerings and advantages of the new Porsche models. Here at Porsche of Monterey, we're incredibly proud to be the area's best destination for all things Porsche. As Porsche models like the Porsche 911 Carrera S continue to lead the way in terms of style, performance, and overall luxury, drivers throughout Seaside, CA and beyond will find themselves enjoying unparalleled excitement.
