Thread: one of our own.....

    one of our own.....

    I just got a email from PCA highlighting the new electric sedan that Porsche has created and getting ready for production. I scrolled down the page and clicked on interior. A couple pictures down was the designer's signature. "Thorsten Klein". For those not familiar with Thorsten, he was, or still is a R Gruppe and Early S registry member. Thorsten has been to the states many times to attend Porsche events. Pretty cool to see he has made it to the top.
    Well deserved.

    Yes, as we say with great respect, “he’s a regular guy”. One of the fold. And a hell of a nice guy, to boot. Congratulations, Thorsten, your talent has always been evident, but Wow, the new electric flagship!! I can’t wait to sit in it... and drive it.

    Rick, thanks for letting us know.
    (Do you still need those NOS ‘73 still in the Porsche wrapper parts numbers and everything pieces for the RS?)
