About
Welcome to Renn Passion, the home of Porsche enthusiasts everywhere.
Renn Passion was created from the love, excitement and passion for Porsche sports cars. From Boxsters to Caymans, Cayennes and Carreras/ 911s, Renn Passion aims to bring you the most up to date information about Porsche out there. We cover the wide world of Porsches from its origins and history of the 356, racing, corporate news, national events, and cutting edge concepts of today and tomorrow. Renn Passion is dedicated to all things Porsche.
Let me introduce myself and explain why Renn Passion is here to stay from here on out.
Ever since I was a little boy, I’ve loved cars. (Sound familiar?) Naturally, this was easy for me, as my father dedicated his entire life to working in the automotive industry, where at his peak, he oversaw market operations for a better half of the globe. The first time I chose to cover my walls as a young lad was with a poster of an original Dodge Viper with the American flag draped in the background. The rest was history.
My uncle Garrett served in the US Military for many years and because of his lifestyle he became an avid Porsche enthusiast. This was to be my first encounter with what I would later fall in love with and never look back, the Porsche. Aptly so, and of course I didn’t realize at the time, he even named his dogs Targa and Carrera. What an inspiration. Enter the summer of my younger brother’s 2nd birthday, our annual Florida vacation had us stop in Atlanta to visit his family on the way. That summer would change the way I looked at cars forever.
It was a beautiful summer day in the suburbs of Atlanta when my uncle asked me if I wanted to go get some gas and milk. Not thinking anything of it, I said “sure” and proceed my way out the front door to where his ‘regular’ car was parked in the driveway – The Porsches stayed parked in the garage. But as I lead out the door, I was stopped with, “we can go out the garage.” So I back tracked inside and down the stairs towards the garage not knowing what I was about to experience. There sat two Porsches keenly preserved in the darkness that slowly disappeared as the early morning light progressively revealed the black and silver beauties. Covering the walls were posters, calendars and more; I was immediately enveloped by a positive energy, a thrill of excitement- a Passion. Without knowing it, Garrett unlocked the passenger door of his 1984 triple black Targa. To this day my eyes still water. He fired it up and lead me on a journey that left only traces of leaves, dust and boisterous fumes. Off to the gas station we went, to grab my first real encounter of Premium Petrol.
At Renn Passion, we live for Porsche Passion. The stories of the owners, racers and devout connoisseurs of the legendary mark that has graced this planet for over 60 years.
So here it is, in its most potent form. My efforts to capture the spirit of Porsche enthusiasts worldwide, and hopefully, someday very soon, find a way to finance the first Porsche of my own. My promise to you is that nowhere else out there will there be a destination on the web more dedicated to the roars, triumphs and beauties of the artfully crafted machines we are so Passionate about.
Thanks for being a part of Renn Passion, the Passion that lives within those that understand why Ferdinand Porsche chose to build the sports car of his dreams.
Cheers-
Erik
