I was very fortunate to get invited to see Magnus' workshop last week. I say workshop but in reality; its a mini museum! Cody Walker (brother of late Paul Walker) was also there to join us. Enjoy the photos.

Cheers

^ditto , I'd like to check out that collection!

What timing, I just hit the record button on my remote about 5 minutes ago for Fast/Furious 7.

Looks like he has out grown that building...

Thanks for sharing. He definitely needs more space. Some great cars for sure.

At first I couldn't get why this guy was relevant to Porsches, but after reading the article in SpeedHunter I realized he is a car guy just like me. Just way better with projects and vision. Great pictures.

I use to think Magnus was a Poser but after watching him speak on a TED x spot I realized he's a dude that knows how to seize opportunities and he loves Porsches

Magnus has certainly caught a lot of flack on various car forums, just not Porsche. Whatever, don't care about that... I don't think anyone, besides the originality crowd, can give him flack for his fine collection.

Thanks for sharing. beerchug.gif

Nice cars and all, but WHAT is he going to do with the 914's?

I'm not sure if I'm more envious of his cars or his hair given mine is becoming as thin as the air on Mt. Everest... sad.gif

I'm very curious about that too. I may not be a fan of the man, but I wouldn't change anything when it comes to his cars. I'd love to see what he would do to the 914. I'm sure it would impress me and I'd use his ideas on my own project.

Well that was easy, unfortunately obtaining such a car collection will be a bit more difficult.

Also agree that I'm curious to see what he does with 914s...

I think I read that he's content with just driving them for now.

YES. When I asked him, he said he has no specific plans for the 914s yet, he will drive them as is for now.

You take that one and I'll take the 924 carrera GT. I had a 924S and still have a soft spot for the Carrera. I'd definitely repaint it though. barf.gif

All these tricked out 911s and yet I find myself most interested in the 924s and if the one is a real 937 or a clone??

Base on the one picture, its most likely a clone. The green TT looks like the real thing base on the rear view.

I hope you invited him to the West Coast Rally this year biggrin.gif . Love to see any of those cars show up. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting him in person. I would sure like too though aktion035.gif

I didn't know that he lost his wife...that would b hard on anyone.

Since Magnus is a hotrodder and customizer at heart. It probably won't be too long before he puts his own spin on them. Considering he likes power, the stock engines will be history. Also considering how well 914s corner, I could see him becoming seriously hooked after upgrading power, suspension and seating.
