When it comes to Porsche, the 911 often takes center stage. But for Patrick, a dedicated transaxle enthusiast, the 968 offered something the 911 couldn’t—a harmonious blend of performance and practicality. Patrick’s journey with the Porsche 968 began as a decision to seek out a car that fit his life better than the iconic 911. The 968, with its transaxle design, six-speed gearbox, and refined balance, struck the perfect chord for a car that could handle both spirited driving and daily errands.
But Patrick’s connection to the 968 goes beyond the car itself. As a collector of transaxle Porsche parts and a builder with a passion for customization, he has turned his love for these unique cars into a lifestyle. His workshop is a testament to this dedication, filled with the tools and components that bring out the best in the 968 and its siblings.
In ‘Not a 911,’ Patrick shares his philosophy on why the 968, often overlooked, is more than deserving of its place in the Porsche legacy. It’s a car that doesn’t chase the shadow of the 911 but stands proudly on its own as a symbol of balance, individuality, and passion for a different kind of Porsche experience.
Watch the film now to explore why the 968 is more than just a car—it’s a community, a lifestyle, and a love letter to what makes Porsche truly special.
