Calling all Porsche obsessives.
It’s a fortunate few that can identify their true passion at an early age, and even fewer that manage to successfully build a life around it. Magnus Walker is certainly among the latter, a renaissance man with an appearance not unlike that of Leonardo da Vinci, but with a creative eye turned to the automotive arts. His earliest muse was a 1977 Porsche 911 Turbo—in Martini livery—on a stand at the Earls Court Motor Show in London, which he attended with his father at the age of 10.
Fast-forward to the artist as a young man in Southern California, an entrepreneur that had started his own fashion brand and began investing in real estate, and soon his appetite for Porsches could be more fully sated. But it wasn’t until director Tamir Moscovici approached Walker with the idea of documenting his cars and craft that Walker would transcend the realm of niche car forums and become a cross-cultural sensation, even presenting his own TED talk.
