When it comes to the early Porsche 911 community, it’s pretty hard to ignore the large elephant in the room when there’s a loud buzzing cloud over its head emanating from social media gone berzerk. Facebook fans, press, ads, films – Magnus Walker has accomplished more in a year than most of us do in a lifetime.
I love the guy. Who doesn’t? He’s got it all going on: tats, dreadlocks, a ZZ Top beard, hip clothes, and a “rules is for fools†attitude. Heck, he’s even got a British accent. He’s everything we are not.
