Urban Outlaw Magnus Walker is a Porsche enthusiast to the core. So it is not surprising that he decided to host a spontaneous gathering while on his latest trip to Germany. Despite giving only 4 days notice of the event via Instagram, more than 200 cars showed up to the meet. Everything from 356's to 991 911's were represented, with a few special gems thrown in the mix.
Name The Time And Place
Purists may question Magnus Walker's outlaw builds and his outrageous hairdo and tattoos, but it is clear that this man lives and breathes all things Porsche. This unwavering love and infectious motto for owners to "get out and drive" has elevated him to somewhat of a celebrity. So when he one day heard a voice that whispered "If you host it, they will come," he decided to have an impromptu Porsche gathering while in Germany. Needless to say, the pictures speak for themselves as the event was a major hit.

Mid-Engineed Classic
The mid-engined Porsche 904 was the successor to the 718 and debuted in 1964 as a street-going model to meet homologation requirements for international FIA-GT class racing. Just over 100 904's were built, and while most of them were fitted with a 2.0L flat 4-cylinder engine, several were built with the 2.0L flat-six out of the 911. Suffice it to say, seeing any variation of a 904 on the road is quite a treat.

In The Name of Speed
One of the standout cars at the meet was this 934/935-inspired build with full Martini Racing graphics. While not a lot is known about the engine spec of the car, it was clearly stripped down of all unnecessary components for the sake of speed. Throwing on huge fender flares and filling them with meaty tires, and adding on a massive wing with a low hanging chin spoiler out front screams race car on the street.

Hot Wings
This shot gives us a nice perspective of the various wing styling that has made its way onto 911 models over the years. The iconic fixed "ducktail" (far right) as introduced on the 1973 2.7 Carrera RS, the last iteration of the "whale tail" as found on the 993 Turbo (middle), and the integrated speed-activated electric spoiler as first introduced on the 964 model 911's (left).

Safari Fun
Safari Porsche builds have been popping up a little more regularly in recent years, so it was nice to see a few of them represented in Hamburg. The idea is to basically make some heavy suspension modifications, throw on some knobby tires, massage the engine, and install bumpers to provide additional ground clearance. Complete these things and the 911 will take you down any road your desire, whether it is paved or not...
